Presidental Debate One

Or a new market severely threatening the gas market.

Don't you think it's a bit terrifying that people in general are so sick of Obama that they're nearly ready to elect a potato Romney? I completely agree with you on Romney's "Vote for me because I'm not Obama" platform, and it scares me that he could potentially win with it.

A war wrapped in the warm blanket of national security and much Republican time devoted to repealing Obamacare and the same sex marriage ban.

Oh the economy? Deregulate and Trickle-Down mofos.

it just shows you how well propaganda works, as there's really few things to *** about when it comes to Obama when the republicans wouldn't have done the same, as far as the general population goes.

Eh, punctuation does make a difference if you're really trying to make a strong point. A comma is a brief pause in reading, as in a listing within a sentence, a pause to designate an imbedded phrase, or an indicator of a conjunction adding in a separate, but strongly related additional thought.

Semi-colons designate a moderate pause; you're moving on to a new idea, but it's at least moderately related to the previous one.

Colons designate strong pauses. The idea you're moving on to is a new idea, but it relies on the previous statement to remain in context: you should realize its a new idea, but shouldn't stop reading there. It can also designate a list that is more strongly removed from the sentence than commas.

Periods designate a complete stop. You're not necessarily moving on to a new topic, but the idea you've put forth is finished.


I am not defending my use of punctuation in the above post. It was written for informal demonstration purposes and could be wrong.

but but but, he gave 90 billion to those failing companies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

herp derp!

Hence why you kill alternative energy programs.

Wouldn't want us getting off fossil fuels.

FTFY

A fluctuation in gas prices conveniently around an election. No offence intended at all, Volk, but do you remember the run on gas and people going apeshit that summer? People lost their ***the way they do when there's a patch of ice on the road here!

I remember that summer to a T! That's when I was looking for my first job out of college. The BF, at the time, was working as a commercial property manager. They lost their Christmas bonuses that year!

EDIT: They lost their Christmas bonuses because the company had to instate reimbursement for mileage, or that was the first thought that jumped to many people's minds.

Considering I'm writing conversational phrases and not term papers or theses, I don't find it anywhere near as important as grammar, as that's important even in conversation.

(Punctuation does hold a degree of importance in conversation, I just don't find it anywhere near as important).

bottom line: I have my flaws, and unlike the party I was bashing I don't go around bitching that "they need to learn English if they come to america" when I am not that great at it either. (That and unlike them I understand why we don't have an official language).

People think by picking the other guy things will magically change and there isn't much thought going into what the other guy is selling.

The Republican policy on social issues and economic policy basically make the party anathema to me but the fiscal efforts? Commendable, if they didn't all drop bricks on the back of the lower/middle classes.

Yeah, I'm absolutely not arguing that you should worry about all the differences on this jewel of a forum. Just putting it out there in case you were curious.

thanks.

Prefect grammar forever!

ftfy

Also, you might want to look up the meaning of the word semantics.

These so-called "Debates" are all about who can look more "presidential", and tonight, Romney "looked like" a president more than ever before.

But does "looking presidential" really amount to anything?

Can disagree with me all you want, but I don't think so.

Random Poll I googled about who won the presidential debate

I think CNN polled viewers at 67% for Mitt, 25% for Obama.

I didn't watch most of it because I was doing Linkshell stuff but from clips that I'm seeing, the President seems to be constantly looking down when he's talking, and when Mitt's talking, he seems to look frustrated.

Just speculation, but I don't think he was adequately prepared for this debate. I hope he does better in the next one.

I think you missed the joke, albeit I didn't make a particularly funny one. lol

I think it's funny that CNN's front page admits defeat, however on this forum the crazies can't accept it.

They should blame Obama's loss on Bush, or my grammar. Whichever scapegoat is easier without using much thought or effort.

I know what it means, kindly drop it.

edit: mood swing.

I've got a shocking fact about Obama you'll only see here first!



...he



FULL TIMES TWILIGHT MAIL.

You haven't bothered to read I guess.

Would you kindly? One of the better stories in video games imo

I got it lol, made my own joke too :< sorry :<

Or he's as delusional as he seems to think we are.

He probably plays on ps2, and therefore, lacks spellcast.

at least it's not pearl set or....or wait...does he wear 3/5 pearl....I fear for the country!

poll on cnn is a flash poll, so yeah.

I could make a hipster iTool joke, but I'll refrain.
