What'd I miss?

 

[Fox Mulder]

Prepare to be pissed. The narrative pushed by our mainstream media has been so laughable.

But the liberal lamestream media runs everything.

 

[empty vessel]

I didn't watch the first debate, and I'm only watching this one because I can't think of anything better to do right now (and I'm eating dinner), but, wow, I think Romney might be a sociopath. And that has nothing to do with any of the words coming out of his mouth, but with his behavior. He's an obscene human being.

 

[The Chosen One]

I think someone overclocked Mittens CPU chip.

He's coming off too aggressive and whiney.

 

[massoluk]

wtf is romney saying? wtf? this is just horrible rambling. wtf.

 

[Ferrio]

Call him out on that bullshit captital gains for middle class!

 

[LilZippa]

Pick a number is a concrete plan

That was a terrible thing to say out load in a debate

 

[Downhome]

I'm confused. I didn't think they were "allowed" to show reactions from the guy not speaking in a split screen, but CNN is doing it non stop. I also didn't think either candidate were allowed to speak directly to the other. I don't care, I say go at it, but still, so weird how it seems that all rules were tossed out the window.

 

[Jintor]

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL I RAISE TAXES ON THE MIDDLE CLASS

lolololol

 

[ViperVisor]

You know all those middle income people making almost 200K a year.

 

[Exuro]

What'd I miss?

[Kyon]

[aceface]

Cmmooon Obama, Cmon man, hit him on that capital gains thing.

He's not great at thinking on his feet.

 

[gutter_trash]

here comes Obama vs the congress

 

[Cousteau]

I wanna see Joe Biden come out of nowhere with a mic and be like "NO NO NO, Romney shut the fuck up.." Like on WWE wrestling

With a feathery robe

 

[Plasmid]

What'd I miss?

Romney being denied, Obama is back with a vengeance and not sitting down like last debate.

Candy is a good moderator.

 

[Zeth]

Here is how Obama should answer this question

Mary, do you know what capital gains is?

no?

ok.

Exactly!

 

[H_Prestige]

Both of these guys suck compared to Biden

 

[velvet_nitemare]

I wanna see Joe Biden come out of nowhere with a mic and be like "NO NO NO, Romney shut the fuck up.." Like on WWE wrestling

"Yo yo Romney, imma let you finish but that's a bunch of MALARKEY!"

 

[Y2Kev]

YES!!!! OBSTRUCTIONISM!

 

[Patryn]

Nevermind.

 

[TacticalFox88]

YES! Call out Congress! Fuck yes!

 

[Oersted]

ENERGY

Obama

- Increased oil and gas production
- Increase in coal production and employment
- Have to look to future - double fuel efficiency in cars.
- Doubled clean energy production
- Contributes to lowering energy imports.
- Open new areas for drilling.
- 600,000 jobs in new natural gas production
- Need to figure out efficient energy. This will help reduce demand and keep gas prices lower.
- Romney wants to let industry write policy.
- Want to keep new energy jobs in US not overseas.
- Demand has gone up, but efficiency is going up.
- We are encouraging natural gas production.
- Romney shut down a coal plant in Mass.
- Investing in Clean coal tech. - Same with gas and oil.
- Effieciency and production will reduce savings.
- Oil companies were leaving public leases unused. Use it or lose it. We are reletting.
- Prices were low in 2008 due to recession.
- Have built enough pipeline. But can't ignore clean energy jobs.

Romney

- Oil production was through private enterprise.
- Fed licenses were cut in half.
- Obama is prosecuting producers
- Want to increase coal, gas, nuclear and renewables (ethanol).
- Obama is not helping coal or gas. He is putting up obstacles with new regulation.
- Make US energy Independent with more drilling and more federal permits.
- Bring pipline from Canada.
- Obama cut licenses. Production on public land is down by 14%.
- Coal is not up.
- Prices at pump show Obama's strategy is not working. Gas and elec. is up.
- If the strategy works, costs will go down.

Nice job.

Well they're also not allowed to yell at the moderator because they should have "final say" on a subject. This is a free for all.

 

[Zaraki_Kenpachi]

Romney, Middle income people get almost zero interest, dividends, and capital gains.
You are a bit out of touch.

Pretty much, the taxes I pay on my savings account is so little, no one worries about the tax on interest and dividends if you're middle class.

 

[richiek]

Yes, yes, finally mention the GOP obstructionism!!

 

[Captain Tuttle]

YES! Call out Congress! Fuck yes!

Nice, it's needed

 

[Wafflecakes]

Obama slaying.

Fun to watch.

 

[Anticitizen One]

I want Romney to really let loose and turn this into Jerry springer

 

[sweetvar26]

Obama wants to sign it right now, hahaha

 

[ViperVisor]

WHAT LOOPHOLES ROMNEY? NAME ONE!

 

[LilZippa]

yeah hit the congress

 

[Brinbe]

See? Bams got this! explain and attack, god, so good.

 

[SteveWinwood]

Someone screencapped that crazy looking dude in the front row right?

 

[Jimothy]

hearing a Democrat praising spending cuts

FUCK

 

[Amir0x]

oh hai tax unfairness

 

[Baconsammy]

Obama is seriously bringing it tonight. Smashing Mitt with his own words.

 

[Dragon]

You know all those middle income people making almost 200K a year.

In new York that'd be middle class

 

[B-Dubs]

Hitting Romney with Romney...damn son

 

[-PXG-]

Motherfucking ether

 

[antonz]

Well they're also not allowed to yell at the moderator because they should have "final say" on a subject. This is a free for all.

Well technically in the town hall format the moderators job is simply to get the questions to the candidates. Crowley specifically said she would go above and beyond her role

 

[MasterShotgun]

I like this answer, but it's nothing we haven't already heard.

I guess the good stuff tonight will keep coming from the rebuttals.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

If Obama keeps this up the whole way through it's a slaughter.

 

[Trigger]

Romney is going to try it again with Candy. Smack him down homegirl.

 

[Ferrio]

Come on obama hit him with the capital gains... dammit dammit..

 

[Dreams-Visions]

WE JUST HAVE A DIFFERENT MOTHAFUCKIN THEORY.

 

[mambadragon]

Pretty much, the taxes I pay on my savings account is so little, no one worries about the tax on interest and dividends if you're middle class.

I can't believe Obama isn't pointing this out

 

[Nobility]

Obama is on a roll!

 

[ChiTownBuffalo]

Newt Gingrich made a time machine so he could go back and lower gas prices four years ago.

It was on the moon base, right?

 

[kingocfs]

He's nailing this topic, as he should.
