We all are only too aware that the cost of everything, food, housing, clothing, etc..has been dramatically rising. In the years 2010 and 2011 there was NO INCREASE in SS monthly payments.&

We all are only too aware that the cost of everything, food, housing, clothing, etc..has been dramatically rising. In the years 2010 and 2011 there was NO INCREASE in SS monthly payments. (The AARP said NOTHING) In 2012 we received a 3.6 increase. In 2013 the estimated SS increase is 1 or 2%....All of which means that during Obama's four years as president...SS income will increase a total of from 4.6 to 5.6 percent. Not to fret though. Our loss is more than offset by the fact that Sandra Fluke a 28 year old STUDENT...will now be getting her birth control pills free, courtesy of Obama and co. IF this offends you (and it should) send a message to Ms. Fluke that if she is old enough to have sex,,,SHE SHOULD BE OLD ENOUGH TO BUY HER OWN BIRTH CONTROL PILLS! ...VOTE ROMNEY /RYAN and return our Country to the values we used to live by! |

That's right Rich, you put those women in their place. Keep them bare foot and pregnant. That's what Romney and Ryan want also. n Response to Obama and Senior Citizens: We all are only too aware that the cost of everything, food, housing, clothing, etc..has been dramatically rising.

Yes the values we used to live by. Those were the days, when you were rewarded for your hard work with job security. Then came the greedy Mitt Romney type CEO's, who sent our jobs to Communist China , so the Romney's could make millions more having our products made in Communist China sweatshops for pennies per hour. The Romney types can never be rich enough and they love firing people. Yes, Mitt Romney , so full of values. Romney values profits over people and rich over poor. Now those are old fashion values.

In Response to Re: Obama and Senior Citizens: That's right Rich, you put those women in their place. Keep them bare foot and pregnant. That's what Romney and Ryan want also. n Response to Obama and Senior Citizens : Posted by creppelrm And when the Repubs will cleverly make contraception unavailable, then you can whine about providing health care and assistance to all those women who have become pregnant. Isn't life precious?? Why are men the biggest proponents against women's issues when women wouldn't have a problem unless men contributed it to it? Do these idiots only think that a woman sees a doctor when she suspects that she's pregnant? They have absolutely no idea about gynecology yet want to make sure that it doesn't involve contraception or abortion. Yet, men go to urologists for prostate problems and erectile dysfunction problems all the time with no eyebrow raised by men.

Remember n Response to Obama and Senior Citizens : Posted by mandm84 This is a joke that women like Sandra Fluke, who believe in contraceptives, are responsible for the bulging deficits and moral decay in this country. Let's take a little history lesson why our country is in such a mess today. Clinton left us with a surplus which was quickly squandered by Bush when he said that the surplus was the taxpayer's money, so he sent us a $300 check to spend as we wanted to. We had 2 major tax cuts during a time that we entered very long and costly wars while losing millions of jobs overseas during his administration. We forgot about the deadly wars as we were being encouraged to take part in a real estate bubble. After a few years it crashed, then the banks collapsed in 2008. Obama took office with the odds stacked against him, but he has started to turn things around. Now, Romney walks in with solutions that will only return to the failed policies of the Bush administration. Romney is counting on low information voters as he wants to appear as the candidate with fiscal and moral values. Voters need to realize that Romney is purely a businessman who has destroyed businesses, outsourced jobs to China and then offshored his money so as to avoid paying taxes. Voters don't need to have an MBA to understand all his business practices which are for his profits, but they should question why a man who wants to become president places profits above the American people.
