Remember What I Told you about Obama 4 Years Ago?

[Sasquatch]

When people portray their feelings or opinions when they broadcast news it has left the realm of actual being news.

... which is why there's a difference between reporters and commentators, and why I even pointed that out. To claim that FOX News is biased in their reporting because they employ commentators is ... well, it's stupid. Bill O'Reilly's job is to give his opinions -- he doesn't tell news, he tells what he thinks.

You understand Obama's having to clean up after the worst president in history.

That sounds like such an informed, intelligent statement. Good one.

Of course, I'm sure that all the things you think made Bush "the worst president in history" have been greatly expanded by Obama ... but again, don't let the facts get in the way.

I think the most understated fact that Sasquatch has mentioned is that Romney's religious ...he's "Mormon". Which personally doesn't affect my bias but for all those Conservatives that claimed Obama was Muslim(he's Christian) don't let it bother them now either.

Obama claims to be Christian, yet follows most Muslim culture, restricts Christians from practicing their beliefs, and forces Christians to act against their (and supposedly his) religion.

Which before the hardcore Conservative's belief was "no one non-christian should be president" it's fun to watch them now turn into hypocrites in addition to their bigotry.

Ah, I see what's going on here -- you believe, falsely, that Mormonism is a religion unto itself and not simply a sect of Christianity.

And where did you get that conservatives believe that no non-Christian should be President?

So this thread is about Obama's unpopularity, yet if he wins, it'll only be because the Republican candidate is _even more_ unpopular?

Basically, yes.

The same thing happened with the Bush/Gore and Bush/Kerry elections. A lot of people didn't vote for Bush because they actually liked the guy; they voted for him because it was the only way to keep Gore and Kerry out of office. A big theme in this year's primaries was "ABO", or "Anybody But Obama".

I recently read that only 19% of Americans believe that the two best candidates are the two most prominent.

Every poll I've seen has Obama ahead.

You must not have seen too many polls, then -- I've seen a few with Obama ahead, but the vast majority have Romney ahead by a slim margin. Even polls in most battleground states have Romney ahead.

If Obama wins, as polling suggests he will, how can his policies still be unpopular?

While most polling suggests that he will not win, an unpopular candidate can still win on the "lesser of two evils" vote.

Hell, I don't like Romney. I would have much rather had an actual conservative candidate. But I'll support him, because the only other candidate with a chance would be Obama.

Watch every program on Fox News(even the NEWS) and tell me they aren't showing emotion and opinions in every story they report.. I wasn't referring to bill o'riley

The facts are all there. Not trying to sugarcoat anything.

Obama claims to be Christian, yet follows most Muslim culture, restricts Christians from practicing their beliefs, and forces Christians to act against their (and supposedly his) religion.
Do you think his birth certificate was forged as well and question anything that is a "topic" on FOX NEWS?

Ah, I see what's going on here -- you believe, falsely, that Mormonism is a religion unto itself and not simply a sect of Christianity.
There is such thing as a non-Christian Mormon, yes. Go find me anything where Romney says "he's Christian". I never said Mormonism didn't stem from Christian ideals but there's a fine boundary when you see how the stereotypical practices differ.

And where did you get that conservatives believe that no non-Christian should be President?
I don't see any Jewish or non-Christ believer in the Republican party... I've heard of a few agnostic, but none of them have any political power or are in office of importance.

I'm not sure where all your anger stems from Sasquatch but please don't play the telephone game with what I say and tell me how I think. It's not until people can lose their emotion, anger, and hatred; the world can begin to heal itself. You try and pick every sentence I state with some smart-ass remark like you're some respectable cyber-bully with etiquette. And by simply saying "no" and calling people "stupid" doesn't make something "not true."
