Clinton says Obama must win election
September 5, 2012 at 7:00 pm in West Central Tribune
CHARLOTTE, N.C. President Obama inherited a wreck of an economy, “put a floor under the crash” and laid the foundation for millions of good new jobs, former President Bill Clinton declared Wednesday night in a Democratic National Convention appeal aimed at millions of hard-pressed Americans yet to decide how to vote. Continue Reading
Clinton sure told it like it was, and I am sure the Romney campaign is staggering looking for a way around this verbal beating. Clinton opened the eyes and ears of millions of voters pointing out the failures in a trickle down economy. We have seen how the rich have become richer and the proposed creation of jobs by Republican policies never materized. Its one thing to fail this way, but its another thing to continue the failed polices that put the economy in the tank, then tell voters more fairytales…Thanks Bill for summing it all up!

Well Jeff its better then a former President accused in a rape scandal where the victim committed sucide. There are all kinds of flaws with most politicans but when it came to the people and the economy of this country Clinton did that very well. Mitt Romney has his hands in the pockets of other billionaires and refuses to show people just what his tax returns are about, or what shortcuts he received vrs the working man and women. Romney’s policies are not in the best interest of the people period. This race could now be a land slide since some Republicans have said to have crossed over to the Dems side for the good of the people!

I am a Christian … but I don’t preach God … this is a private thing for me … I’m pretty sure I rarely mention his name, but it doesn’t make me less of a Christian then those who flaunt His name for their own needs, yet are hypocrites and will stab you in the back the first moment they can … so no, omitting the word God from something doesn’t make anyone less of a Christian. I see it on FB all the time … like if you want Jesus in your life … and then you should see the other posts they make … if those who profess being ‘Christians’ so loudly need to do it to somehow make themselves feel better good for them … I don’t need to … there are many who don’t need to … but don’t you dare think we are ‘less’ Christian then you are, you don’t know me and therefore you can’t judge me … to do so would be against Christian values … especially those that I have been taught … and while I’m on the subject … and it’s no secret people, Republicans do not hold the majority in being Christians … you may think you do but you don’t! You just speak louder!

Some Republicans use the Lord as an election platform. Religion has no place in politics, and I wish this would stop. Times have changed, not all people are Christians or believe in the Lord, should they be treated any less? America is about free speech, Religious beliefs, and the freedom to be who you want to be!

bob once again your reaching. This is about the people, and Mittmoney and Ryan doesn’t represent the people, they represent the wealthy and the entitled. Mr Clinton’s extra affairs had nothing to do with the economy, because that was in good shape. Everything Clinton spoke about made complete sense, and sent the Republicans scrambling for answers. I mean the Rep Convention did not even make reference to our Vets because in Mitt’s own words, he wanted to discuss the important issues. Excuse me what is more important then our Veterans, that the Republicans sent to the sandtrap? They need support especially when their tours are done and they have to come back home. You mean there is no room to mention them? Perfect example of an out of touch candidate who himself outsourced jobs, cut pensions, and had people laid off! Hey but he made millions in fees with Bain!

Obama still has work to do and he knows it. One of the issues that needs attending is the Abu Ghraib prison the scene of dispictable crimes against prisoners. There was torture, rape, homicide, sodomy and 1000 pictures to back up the evidence. Obama refused to allow the pics to go public for fear of added retaliation against our troops still in the M.E. We need to charge out these inmates if we have evidence, or free them when we end the Afghan war. This prison is a money pit, and an ebarrassment to America, and all we stand for! Torture only lowers ourselves to the level of our enemies and actually gives more cause for radicals and terrorists to find the will and reasons to continue attacks on us. Republicans used their political might and legal avenues to block the President from closing this cess pool of disgust, which some soldiers claimed was done by subcontrators.

Goodbye freedom there is perception, and there is fact. You my friend base your perceptions on a party that is neither truthful or realiable. Obama gave us the stimulus, and it created jobs, I mean why else whould VP candidate Ryan ask Obama 4x for stimulus money if he didn’t believe in it? Obama brought us healthcare reform, signed unemployment extended benefits, and job growth has gone on for 30 months. Now it may not be significant job growth, but never the less we have had it, which proves his policies are working. Now this is not bad especially when Republicans roadblock him at every turn and have not produced job growth or helped to stimulate this economy but call every biit of money Obama wants to invest in this country a deficit. Truth is Obama inhertied an 18% of a growing deficit from the Bush policies in 2009, and appropriations already in place which some people fail to understand. Obama ordered the Seal 6 team in to take Bin Laden out, and even notified Bush first.He also ordered the same team in to free hostages which they did successfully I might add. Obama not only authorized foreclosure programs to save some homeowners he managed to turn GM profitable despite outrageous and verbal attacks by Republicans. The big 3 automakers which borrowed billions from taxpayers managed to also pay down their debit. Obama ended Iraq and could have done the same with Afganistan but Republicans strongly objected pulling troops out at all from the M.E. at all, so Obama met them half way. Obama also got the interest rate on student loans dropped despite opposition from lenders. Yes not everything the President planned on doing he got accomplished, but we all knew his term would be an 8yr term to be at all successful seeing the mess he inherited. High unemployment, a housing market collapse, a mounting deficit, growing healthcare deficit, two wars, and more disgruntle and disinfranchised people since the Great Depression. So please Goodbye freedom tell us your facts or give us more of the same, perception and misleading false information some people have been ripping off to the public. Obama did not build it but he also wasn’t responsible for it! Also go to Fact Check to see the real truth on the deficit…..

Goodbye freedom Obama shows us his tax returns, he doesn’t have investments in the Caymens or offshore accounts so the IRS can’t tax them! Obama is rich, rich in family values rich in education values, and has a connection to the elderly, poor, our Vets and disabled. Romney has shown us time and again how a rich disconnected person shuns average Americans except at voting time. Please goodbye freedom give us some good examples of jobs Romney created, what foreign polices he has ever dealt with, where he plans on creating the so called 12M jobs he braggs about creating? With Romney’s past history of out sourcing jobs, cutting pensions, and stuffing away millions in his hidway IRS proof investments, I’ll take my chances on Obama! Its always interesting how Romney can come up with this job growth but didn’t do it when he was gov or never consulted the Republican party the last 2yrs to jump start unemployment. This proves my point that Republicans did not want to work with the President because if he is successful, how do they get back in the Whitehouse?

So goodbye freedom Ford never borrowed money from the gov? The big 3 borrowed lots of money until they blew it the last time out. When the Senate began questioning the big 3, Ford backed out, you know when everyone was coming to the whitehouse money dinner table, when over a trillion of our tax dollars was given to many Banks and corporations. Ford still owed the gov for previous loans just like GM and Chrsyler did. Obama brought GM back from the dead which again people like you have failed to mention. Goodbye freedom its all about negatives and falsehoods some would rather care to recognize, then anything positive! The book on the seal team 6 is what has put natonal security in harms way. I don’t know where your claim the VP got 22 seal members killed but I can tell you that is a load of crap, and also please give your real name if you would? I won’t tell you how I know that, but your statement is untrue and a very serious accusation! The fact of the matter is the book being talked about is going to be pulled, the person may face charges and the money will be confiscated by prosecutors if you haven’t heard the latest. This former member has put this unit and its members in harms way and they know it, and don’t like it. This guy is trying to cash in when National security is on the line!! We are still out there, and these teams are doing all sorts of work behind the scenes, which is why it is still classified under National secuirty….The author is the one who will be responsible if more troops die since he made claims Bin Laden was shot point blank with his hands up and was not armed! Idiot!!!

Goodbye Freedom your accusations of the VP gettting Seal members killed is pure nonsense. The person who really is in hot water is the person who just wrote the book on Bin Ladens death. This guy violated National Security because you are told when you join special forces you cannot talk about, write about, or discuss with anyone outside your team what orders or missions you were told to carry out. We are still at war and anything talked about especially a mission as sensitive and dangerous as Bin Laden was, puts our troops in harms way! I hear they are going after the author, taking his profits, as they should, because he signed an agreement and took an oath. To try and profit off of this book puts his team and this Nation in harms way!

I can’t claim to know how the military works, when national security is no longer an issue, but this much I do know, I have had family members who served careers in the Marines and Air Force, who have been out of the service for over 20 years, and who still can not discuss much of what they did while in the military … heck I know men who have served in WWII and still think it’s a disservice to their country to discuss what they did then! Heck I have a brother in law in the Air Force now who was sent to Guam … yes Guam and his wife couldn’t tell us where he was ….
