That's their job, Roy.

And it was clear that the guy was not completely in his right mind.

So... it's their job to do it at a Obama rally, but at a McCain event, it is a sign that you made the right decision to vote for Obama in 2008?

Okay Roy... Question:

After the Secret Service apprehended the guy who called him the Anti-Christ, did Mr. Obama call him names?

No, he didn't. He just went on as if it didn't happen.

At McCain's speech, after security apprehended this guy, who admittedly shouldn't have done what he did, McCain called him a jerk.

In other words, McCain sank to his level. In a way, that heckler got what he wanted from McCain, a reaction.

And it wasn't a good reaction! If Romney had addressed that woman and told her that what she had said was false, THAT would have been a good reaction, and I might have actually respected him a little for it. But calling someone a jerk is simply trying to use two wrongs to make a right.

So let me get this straight, calling the man a Jerk, for bringing up a topic on a day meant to honored the dead, by accusing McCain and his father of covering up a tragic event in which sailors died. And that suddenly means he sunk to that level? No, sinking to his level would have been calling him a "Mother Fucker" and threatening to kick his ass after the event. Calling him a jerk was not only deserved, but about as mild as some one could get after what the guy said.

But dude that has to honestly be the most pathetic spin I have seen you give, and that honestly means something. Bravo.

Oh, I give up, this is like arguing with...

Come to think of it, this is like arguing with a Republican, which I just realized is exactly what I'm doing.

So that must be why you lose the arguments so often

[Dark Sage]

No, it's simply because no matter what I say, you're always prepared to counter it with some phoney-baloney opinion. You won't give up.

Here's some facts for you to consider when comparing Obama with Romney.

Mitt Romney loves to attack Barack Obama’s record of job creation as president. Unfortunately, Mitt’s record as Massachusetts governor pales in comparison.

Obama has created a net 3.635 million jobs. Applying the same rules to Romney’s numbers through the same time period—that is, through April of his fourth year in office, 2006—we credit Romney with 64,500 jobs.

So he grew jobs by 1.9 percent. (During a BOOM, I might add)

Obama’s job-growth rate is 2.35 percent (during a BUST, by the way)

Add to this the fact that Obama, being President, had a far bigger jurisdiction.

Who is the bigger job creator?

No opinion here. Just facts.
