It's a good PR move, but ANY time a politician puts himself into a crisis, the real cost - feeding and housing his security detail and hordes of reporters while they hand out 12 cases of water - it is often an inefficient operation.

But it's a good move, sure, from a politics standpoint.

any time a politician uses a crisis for their gain, I dont like it.   Presidents have no business 'on the ground' inspecting national disasters.  I like the fly-by thing, that's cool, like Bush did.  But Obama waddling around knee-deep in gulf oil spill... costs thousands in taxpayer $ and is nothing more than a PR effort.

This storm gonna be a pussycat anyway - it's nothing more than an economic boost "everyone buy water and batteries and gas/generators".... while knocking the embassy sotry off the headlines.  Leave that to the weather channel - a bunch of idiot buying plywood is NOT a more important story!

Obama is probably figuring out a way to scam disater relief funds for when he leaves office in January.

i agree.  But his tour bus collecting food smacks of opportunism. 
he should use his pulpit to encourage people to donate to the Red Cross, etc. 

This could backfire in a huge way.  Jon Stewart showing secret service booking 10 hotel rooms so romney could hand out bottled water for 6 minutes.
Local police resources being re-routed from helping the needy in the snow - so that they can guard 12 streets the Romney tour bus will pass...

Eh, just too risky.  He should encourage donations but steer clear.

Plus.... we're talking about a brutal snowstorm....

Is romney going to drive his entire tour bus into a place with limited road access?  it's a snowstorm, not a hurricane (lol @ cat 1, wimps)... We're not going to have flattened houses, we're going to have a bad snowstorm.

the amount of coordination/planning it will require - to what will be no more than a photo op - is kinda silly.  And unnecessary.

He has positive momentum on his side - no need to pander here.  A week before the election, pundits woudl love nothing more than a photo op of Romney Bus getting stuck in a snowy road and needing to divert resources that could be helping people - to helping him trying to capitalize on their distress.

why doesn't Romney repatriate all of his foreign investments, pay the appropriate taxes and those hidden millions can be used to save a lot more lives than 1 stinking bus

No - but I think the margins in NJ, CA, and NY are going to be a heck of a lot closer than people realize.  

240 - i'm not kidding, there is nothing for obama here.  NOTHING  

No yard signs, no bumper stickers, NOTHING.  

Its totally crazy.  You would not even know an election was a week away here!

Post by: 240 is Back on October 28, 2012, 05:36:26 PM
nothing for obama in south florida either - on lawns, cars, etc.   very minimal for romney - i've counted maybe 12 signs all year and 5 bumper stickers.

I did see some obama t-shirts on younger people in the club lately.  People are still going to support him.  FL will probably go romney, but given how many people I know who are dependent upon the govt teet, it's hard to imagine them picking the guy who plans on ending their handouts.

Romney actually wasn't all that helpful, in fact red cross says not to do exactly what he did as it wastes time and resources.

Now if he was genuinely trying to help, great! but it's clear just like ryans bullshit stunt that this is for votes nothing more. The fact that you celebrate it indicates what a meatpie you are.

Well hes all over the place with his opinions... People who dont stand by convictions are weak in my opinion. Thats just me, If he sucked 1 year ago, how is he all of the sudden the best thing since sliced bread and the leader of our country "lead from the front" in a swing state.

See.. there are 2 types of men. The stick to your guns no matter what, and the morphers and excuse makers. "but but ill vote for a coffee cup over obama" its simply a weak ass cop out to the kid. I mean grow a pair or shut the fuck up. Spare me with your built in excuses.

No.. not at all... never said he was. But im not talking about obama... im talking about your weak ass... the shit is almost sickening. Just 2 different backgrounds.

Im the son of a 3 tour nam Vet.. There is no gray area with my pop. And thats how i was raised. If this is what it is... this is what it is... There is no morphing. My pop would beat the hell out of me if he caught me acting like a sniveling little rat weasel.. Its just a different belief system... You have a stance. You keep it... If youre wrong.. you acknowledge it like a man... and you move on...


Just a different day... a different kind of "Male" had emerged.... and you are the epitome of "him".

You obviously are so ignorant, uninformed, incompetent, and unaware of the Obama Doctrine as stated as being :  "Leading From Behind" that I was alluding to.   I guess I assumed you libs would have understoof the reference. 

I'll dumb it down for you next time.

Im not talking about any of that. Im talking about your grandstanding for a guy you hate last year... Where im from.. if you dont like the ways of someone.. you dont like them..

Like me. I liked Obama 4 years ago against McCain and Grizzly Spice. But i dont like how hes halfassed some things..
And i let it be known. Now i dont like romney because he has shown himself to be a split tounged liar who wont get into specifics about anything ..... so i just dont champion anyone.
but you on the other hand... "mitt sucks and is weak"..."Look how awesome mitt is.. he is giving money away, he is so smart, " Like i said.. its no fault of your own.. you werent raised to have strong convictions. You are perfect for todays world. You are the example of todays male. Me... i think i was born too late... its a different mentality.

if you had to choose which man has had more consistent ideals over the years - it IS obama.

Granted, most of his ideals involve redistribution of wealth, greater govt control, less freedom, etc.   Not good things.

So I think we can agree while obama has been consistently liberal his entire career, Romney was a liberal governor (gun bill, romneycare), but now promises to be less liberal.

We're choosing the promise of less liberal (from romney, who delivered it but promises to stop it) - over Obama, who we KNOW is going to proudly be continually liberal.


Obama wins on consistency, Romney wins on the fact he's promising not to be liberal anymore.

Bump what.   Obama flip flopped on gay marriage, gitmo, tax hikes, health care, executive orders, signing statements, and on and on and on and on. 


Again  - because you are in the delusional cult of racial solidarity w ObaMUGABE you are clueless to the reality of what you support and voted for in 2008.
