It's an opinion piece, rocket scientist.

here's an exhibit of why they don't get into details:

http://www.slate.com/blogs/moneybox/...nvestment.html

a biased opinion piece from a condescending as.shole. No wonder why you ate it up.

LOL - what happened in the debate - Ryan dissembling, having zero adequate response to a direct question - happened. Direct quotes of Ryan having no answer isn't opinion - it's fact.

That Biden was right to laugh at that, is. Yeah, that's opinion. Yup, I agree with that opinion. Biden only laughed at Ryan when he lied - and like Romney, Ryan lied a lot.

I agree with the rest of the opinion piece, too - that Romney-Ryan should have been laughed off the presidential stage months ago due to incompetence and lack of seriousness, but they have not been due to lack of journalistic incompetence.

And this article agrees completely with 'Zig's Slate article - go attack that, too.

I don't care to look at any articles defending either candidate. They're both compulsive liars, you dumb slut.

Tiabbi is the left's equivalent of Rush Limbaugh. I hate that fat effeminate f.ucktard just as much as I hate that effeminate bald sissy Tiabbi.

If Tiabbi had any shred of integrity he'd focus on the unsaid lies of the administration over the Ambassador murder.

But no. We have to delude ourselves that one evil is less than the other. I wish we could send all of you to Cuba and put you in the Hunger Games.

LOL - Shorter Coach: WHAAAaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa :mad:

well, all four of them are. when i posted the link the other day to factchecks debate rundown between obama and romney, both were called out in the article-actually, obama had one more total. so, both liars, altho we only keep hearing about how romney lied.

and here's factcheck on the veeps.

http://factcheck.org/2012/10/veep-debate-violations/


well, what do you know...both called out. not just lyin ryan, but lyin biden. but i bet we only hear about the former, and not the latter, from some on here, and many in the media.
for instance, jon stewart mocks romney for lying, and wonders if he is a wizard. he mocked obama's lackluster debate-but not one mention of his playing loose with facts.

Remember when Biden took Ryan to task on cutting security in the house?

Yeah isn't it convenient that he knew this beforehand and the administration still thought it would be ok to fund Al Qaeda in Libya. That they wouldn't retaliate?



See you scumbags conveniently overlook that. Such a sickening miserable demonic joke of a person you are.

I wish Riot simply thought that Obama was the lesser of two evils. That's not what she thinks. She thinks Obama is great and Romney is terrible. If she simply thought Obama was the lesser of two evils, I wouldn't have a problem with that. I think for most of us on here, we just try to pick the lesser of the two evils. Most of us know that both parties are terrible and they don't represent us. Riot thinks differently. She thinks one side is great and the other side is terrible.

Riot doesn't say that "they both lie a lot but Romney lies more." She basically says that the one guy is a total liar and the other guy is totally honest. :zz:

Obama gets the Middle East like Carter did in RIOT's eyes.

It's America and Israel's fault for agitating the muslim natives.

No matter what the truth is in Libya it was the damn film. Notice the film maker is locked up while the murderers run free.

How dare you accuse Obama of lying, Riot knows for a fact that he does not. She read his books.

Most kids don't carry notebooks anymore but if she had one she'd write his name all over it with little hearts and maybe even make the Os into peace signs.

You forgot to tell Rupert he's a racist.

If you are going to your fallback defense of "all candidates are exactly the same", I suggest you reassess with some more "factchecking" :D

Never does a man look more ignorantly stupid than when he lectures on "what other people think", and is wrong.

It's really nice for you, I imagine, that you keep debating that imaginary Riot that fits so nicely into your prejudices, bigotries and assumptions.

Makes it easy for me, I don't have to ever actually write anything, you'll just ass-ume whatever you want. You do seem to love not having to think too deeply or complexly ;)

That applies to several of our Derby Trail favorites here, btw - apparently simply unable to discuss any political issue without resorting to calling names at other people, like kids. Mentally, children.

You do realize that once you overthrow the government and society, you won't be getting your oil dividend checks to live off of any more, right?

Biden only smiled when Ryan was lying or dissembling or saying something remarkably dumb and ignorant :p

Debates don't preclude laughing at your opponent saying something stupid or calling your opponent on lying.

And that's why some of the far right wingnuts are so enraged about Kid Serious, allegedly the smartest, wonkyest kid in the class, getting rolled and shown as an empty phony with no real numbers by the experienced old Senator :rolleyes:

The appalling thing is that yes, the pathetically shallow American media has allowed Romney to get away with having zero actual plans for anything for all this time.

If I said something inaccurate feel free to correct me. You don't think Obama is great? You don't think Romney is terrible and a huge liar?

The same media that's letting Obama and Biden use the ignorance through compartmentalization excuse for lying about the ambassador's murder.

And that was a worthy response to your idiotic fear mongering tactic. If that were to apply that would mean you wouldn't have fuc.k all either. Including your house.

So spare me the horseshit.

Yes, I think Romney is terrible, unqualified for the office due to lack of experience and knowledge, and yes, has always been a proven huge liar (which is in itself disqualifying before primaries even started in my eyes)

Do I think Obama hangs the moon? Hell no, and I've said that plenty in the past. I disagree with several things the president has done, but overall I'm very impressed with how well he's done, what he has accomplished.

He's done a good job, and I will gladly vote for him again. Is he "great"? No. But he's very solid, very good for this country, he's doing most things the right way. I think history will look upon him a lot more kindly than this current pathetically shallow American media and circus of politics.

The constant false childish ridiculousness of painting all Obama supporters as starry-eyed celebrity worshipers was over back in 2008, when McCain's Paris Hilton ad became a laughingstock.

And I was voting for McCain up until the day he picked Sarah Palin as veep, and proved he was not really qualified to be pres. by listening to Steve Schmidt on that one.
