Official 2012 Election Day Thread

I'm hip to the game and the scary thing is I understand how the marginal tax rate works and the fact that the piper eventually gets paid when you hit 70.5 or croak.

You can only hide for so long you tax sheltering, estate scheming, inheritance tax eliminator, you.

So I guess your saying you don't write off anything on your taxes and I'm guessing your going to claim that $$ you won?http://www.thewarpath.net/images/icons/icon10.gif

I don't think the Rep. guys here would have acted like a bunch of kids who just won their first thing ever. I've had a pretty good laugh at how some here have the childish post after post they just keep on going and going and going.That, and I'm amazed at the total lack of substance from the left in this thread and and this election. Seems like it all was about who can be the most negative while appearing confident laughing out loud about it.

At times, we'd talk about whether cost would go up under Obamacare, and federal debt and spending, and constitutional rights. But I guess facts were too inconvenient this time around. All that got swept aside for commercials accusing Romney of shipping jobs overseas (factcheckers debunked this early on but that didn't stop the commercials), a college student complaining her birth control was too expensive for her to pay alone, legalizing pot, going forward on a bad economy for four years with more of the same (It's still going to improve, just not as much as it could have.), and ridiculous accusations like "Romney supports child labor!".

Romney couldn't even talk about going out of his way to hire women, without liberals screaming "Are you offended he said "binders full of women""" All style, no substance this time around. This thread and election have been eyeopening and headshaking.

I say lock it and lets move on.

Nobody has "won" until big money lobbying gets out of our politics. It's really that simple. Doesn't matter if it were Dems or Repubs. I personally drill the GOP harder because they simply show their colors more often and generally in a much /facepalm type measure. Until those guys can learn to get their act together and stop representing a small fraction of the nation, they'll continue to lose elections.


.....also, it's things like this that infuriate me as well. We talked about it before, and what was true then is still true now.

NC you us really bad sources the guy making the claim is under indictment for funneling campaign funds from the rep party.

Greer, who is under indictment and accused of funneling campaign funds from the Republican Party, has been claiming that state Republicans supported a law (HB 1355)—which, in part, curtailed early voting—simply as a means to stymie the Democratic vote.

Him being under indictment has nothing to do with his statement that the GOP indeed wanted to suppress minority votes.


This isn't a situation where "if you disagree with me, then you are a idiot", but if you can't see that the GOP wasn't trying to suppress minority votes....well...continue living in your ignorant world. You know they were, I know they were, minorities know they were.

That's only if you think your voting block is too dumb to figure out how to vote. I never did but the many on the left must have thought they were to dumb to figure out how to vote with an ID. Of the states that did pass voter laws it didn't seem to stop anyone from voting so that argument does not hold any water. Maybe soon that same block of voters will realize how their party views them as too dumb to know how to vote.

It puts obstacles in place that make people not want to vote.


Really guy? Why am I having to explain this? It's clear as the sky. Are you that wrapped up in your party's idiocy that you refuse to acknowledge this? As long as people like you exist, nothing will change.

So your saying the Dem voters are too lazy to get an ID? Its you saying people are too stupid and lazy to get a voter ID not me. Thats what I don't get and you where proven wrong in this past election. The only change you seem to want is to make every one too F*&King lazy to get off their ass and do something on their own. I actuall think people in whole are not that lazy and can do stuff without people like you telling them they can't and if they are that lazy then they probably should not be voting.

FD, with all the shit talking you have been doing over the last 4 years you deserve nothing short of spiking the ball INTO your face followed by the Carlton dance.


Please proceed your highness....and be sure to bring your ugg boots.
