It is often illegal to feed wild animals. It tends to make them dependent and lazy, often even forgetting on how to fend for themselves. It also can make them aggressive. Sound like anything we see every day?

The poll I saw was worded: "which candidate would you TRUST to handle the economy"
"trust" may be the key word.
Unfortunately his "solid" history is becoming a "shaky" history and it has become difficult to trust his braggadocios claims.
He has bragged that he gave away all of his inheritance; therefore, he is a self made man.
Ann stated that they lived off of the inheritance for years.
Even if he had not given it away, so what? His dad built the pile of money by working hard, to EARN it. The family, and all Americans, should be proud of this success- not ashamed of it.
He stated that he "saved" the Olympics.
Olympic officials say that claim is an exaggeration.
$1 billion was already in place and the Bush made sure the Gov't. kicked in another 1.5 billion.
To think that our country would ever let the Olympics fail is naive.
Kind of like the banks? Chrysler? GM? $1.5 billion sounds pretty darn cheap, by comparison!!!
He brags about balancing the budget in Massachusetts.
He balanced the STATE budget by screwing over the CITIES and TOWNS.
If you are going to strengthen your household finances you NEED to quit buying for your friends and neighbors.
If our federal government would quit the waste spending to the states, cities, counties, solar panel building plants- totally eliminate ALL foreign spending- we could soon get the federal budget in order!
"Romney largely balanced the budget by cutting state aid to cities and towns, many of which responded by raising property taxes. In his first two years in office, Romney presided over a 15 percent cut in spending on unrestricted aid to cities and towns; he also cut more than 4 percent of funding for local schools."
Result was a net increase in taxes.
See above response. Also, if the cities, etc., had to tighten their belts, good! Most municipalities have a ton of wasteful spending in their budgets. They could NOT decrease school spending if the would end the wasteful spending.
In part why his disapproval rating went from 33% to 65%.
He has bragged about "turning companies around" while at Bain.
He used the easiest method of increasing profits.
Reduce the largest variable expense by reducing the workforce.
As LOS (I think it was his post) said in one of his posts, people build businesses to make money- jobs are simply a side product.
If YOU owned a business, would you keep un-needed workers, while losing money? Or would you thin the herd, and stay profitable?
If a business has to get rid of some workers to save the jobs of MANY other workers, sounds like a no brainer to me!
He has managed to confuse many of the American people who may feel it is easier to TRUST a known entity *(even a bad one) than to cross your fingers on the hard to trust bragging rich loose cannon guy.
Yeah, o has done a wonderful job. Let's keep him in office another term!

Just think, more than 25% of ALL of the National debt has been taken on in the past 3.5 years. What a bragging point for Obama! That is more then 25% of almost 16 TRILLION dollars. Staggering.

My reply was regarding your "are you kidding" statement about a poll where many people gave a surprising response.
It was not a defense of Obama and it was not a slam on Romney.
Simply pointed out the inconsistencies that the public hears.
Romney wasn't put through the laundry machine at a national level like Gingrich so the public is learning on the fly here. In hindsight, Gingrich with all his flaws would have faired better as a "known" entity. All of his crap is out and people have had time to absorb it and yawn.
Bad strategy in my opinion. Same thing happened with Palin.
This years election is there for the republicans to win and it appears more and more each day that once again they chose the wrong candidate!
They don't WANT to win and are not even trying to do so. Romney could win IF he tried. Obama can be thumped pretty good, if anyone wanted too do so. The GOP nominated EXACTLY who they wanted, a loser.

Read the same thing??
Who's reading the same things anymore?
The majority of Americans don't have the time to bother sitting around reading.
Instead they tune in to their favorite show or website. Fox, MSNBC, CCN, etc. And assume someone did the reading for them.
One sided information contributes to dividing the country and dumbing down the populace.
It happens here on EO frequently. Every reference some members give come from Fox exclusively.
Before you said the fix is in for Obama. Now this what false statement you coming up with next?

Why do they not want to win? And why do you think Romney is not trying?
This is perhaps one of the most important elections of all time for the republicans and your views are confusing my simple mind.

LOL! los keeps most confused!!
It is my OPINION. I have little doubt that the 'fix' is in. Romney's pathetic effort, as McCain's, bolsters my view.
The GOP COVETS the same power that Obama does. IF they allow him to continue, THEY win. IF Romney were to win, THEY would have to do the dirty work to gain control over the People. ANYONE who believes that the GOP is ANY different or any more 'Constitutional' than the Democrats is likely on hallucinatory drugs or was born delusional.
There are really only a few choices, Romney is inept. His staff is inept, which means he is, OR they are TRYING not to win.

Besides the fact he is a wimp? Read below, what I wrote in response to Ziggi.

I have great respect for the fact that you do not come on here and just regurgitate what the pundits are feeding the people.
You are an original!

Thank the lord for small miracles.
You got that right! I would REALLY hate to be diminished in ANY way!
