300 whole people in sandusky and 800 in parma wow he is just packing them in

Umm...Tom,
These are in small parks/areas that have LIMITED access.
Try to think. Although I realize that is out of the norm of today's right-wing loons.

yes tom tucker the small parks were all that they needed since they took a media beating for their small crowd sizes in large venues http://www.newsmax.com/Politics/Obama-Romney/2012/05/05/id/438124

next stop a sold out 8.00 a plate fundraiser at chuckie-cheese

Are you always uneducated? Or just when posting on stories to show your right-wing ignorance?

Tom M., you know that they set attendance caps on these events, right? It's not like the whole town can just walk right in.

yes kate they went to smaller venues with attendance caps because they were not filling up the larges sites like they did in 2008 ......

He is the FORMER Governor for a reason. He was one of the Obama Clueless idiots and had no clue how to create a job.
Obama did not save the Auto Industry, he destroyed investment in any industry in the US when he handed ownership to the UAW!

I have to agree with John. Obama had his chance and did nothing but get this country trillions of dollars in debt. This is so unfortunate for our children and grandchildren, I'm SO sorry to say. Anybody that could not follow any type of budget for the future of this country could NEVER have helped the auto industry in her hour of need!! It's time to give some new leadership a chance and take America back....

The auto industry was lent $ during Obama's admin, and is now making & selling more American made cars then in the preceding years. And the $ has been paid back, and the industry has *not* been nationalized.

Obama did *not* "get this country trillions of dollars in debt". GWB took a surpuls and got us into trillions of $ of debt. Obama has been trying to slow down the debt growth. But of course, as the Party Of No pledged to Grover Norquist that they would not raise taxes, it's nearly impossible to slow down the deficit increases.

In his spare time he managed to get affordable health care passed for millions of Americans, saw to it that immigrants & LGBT people were treated as human beings, and he brought Bin Laden to justice.

Now, he didn't have time to start two pointless and misguided wars, or to declare "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!" in a flight suit when he ended one of them, but given the prevailing "I hope he fails" attitude from Rush and the rest, and the stated Republican goal of intentionally making him look bad in order to ensure he is a one term president, I think he's done a swell job.

Maybe the newspapers & cable news networks you watch don't cover these stories.

"Obama had his chance and did nothing but get this country trillions of dollars in debt."

It's being served in the "Branches of Government 101 & How They Work" class you just enrolled in.

A few facts about the national debt:
$5.7 trillion - January 2001
$10.7 trillion - December 2008
$15.9 trillion - today, July, 2012

Obama can't keep blaming W. At some point, he became responsible and needs to take responsibility for his share. He can't keep blaming the other guy. I never saw a president always having to point the finger at everyone else and not himself. I don't recall W go on and on about how the dems started the housing problem back in the 90's that were greatly responsible for the foreclosure and banking problems that occurred at the end of W's term. Why anyone ever thought it was a good thing to let "everyone own a home" is beyond me. This started us even losing our own National City.

And, Garry, also remember that we did not hear over and over from George W reminders about the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, that had links to Al-Qaeda training camps in Afghanistan and Osama Bin Laden's Al-Qaeda network. After all, who knows how history would have been rewritten if Clinton had dealt with "the enemy" before W was in office.

According to Lyn's chart, this comment from Karen Kananian is grossly erroneous:

"Obama had his chance and did nothing but get this country trillions of dollars in debt."

Which is what I was responding to. And a year by year analysis would show that Obama inherited an amazingly high annual deficit to "work" with.

OK. I made a mistake. GWB inherited annual surpluses from Clinton & quickly turned them into annual deficits. I misremembered "annual deficits" as "national debt".

Otherwise, I stand by my statements as factual, documentable, and in context. What you guys post is something else entirely.

But I will no longer respond to ToS-violaters who hide behind fake or incomplete names.

That's just more revisionist history, and confusing a budget with the acts of terrorists.

Budgets have inertia, they are difficult to change year to year.

Let's see, now. The 1993 WTC bombing happened on February 26. 38 days after the first Bush left office. So, if you can blame Clinton for 9/11, then the firsat Bush gets the blame for 2/26/93.

But then Clinton captured, tried, convicted and imprisoned the perpetrators: Ramzi Yousef, Abdul Hakim Murad, and Wali Khan Amin Shah.

He tripled the FBI's counter-terrorism budget and doubled counter-terrorism funding overall.

GWB and Cheney ignored the intelligence, and GWB continued to read the bunny book to the kindergartners.

And left it to Obama to bring Bin Laden to justice.

Garry, I do agree that it is unfortunate that since Clinton we have had annual deficits. I wish the government would be held to a balanced budget, but this may result in a deficit anyhow because I believe there would be allowances for certain events, like war or other emergencies.

Garry,
I again agree - you can go back and back and back... to see who is to blame for not fixing problems as they may have first happened. I was stating the events that occurred before W - 1993 bombing and creation of the housing crisis.
That was my point. No other president constantly pointed their finger at their predecessor. This is what Obama does. This is his answer to why things are bad. He does not take responsibility. He does not just do his job. It's always the other guys fault. Even almost 4 years later, its still some other person's fault. Obama's increase to the debt in less than 4 years is more than what George W added in 8. And, as you said - W had 2 wars.

HOWEVER, even though "Clinton captured, tried, convicted and imprisoned the perpetrators" - he did nothing about going into/after Afghanistan, Al-Qaeda or Bin Laden, which he has said is a regret of his. But that is all Monday morning QB.

I guess I should give Obama credit for getting Bin Laden, but when people put it in terms as you have, it reminds me that it is actually other people risking their lives, gathering intelligence and executing the plan. What Obama did was say - its a go, as any other president would have with the same info. I'm sorry, but I give credit to those brave navy seals - the names we will never know.

wow garry keep pointing them fingers away from the actual problem (proven socialist president)

Dev, - how long have you been drinking? Give credit to Kasich? If I try to say his name out loud I throw up a little in my mouth.

Welcome to the way ALL parties operate nowadays (although this is nothing new). With people getting angrier (and the parties/candidates certainly not helping to curtail said tempers/anger), look for more candidates to have rallies, etc. where the people are invited.

Sally, you can bet that Obama appreciates your $15 contributions. It’s that kind of support that keeps him going. I’m sorry you didn’t get the word about the President’s visit. A notice in the Plain Dealer (and I think an e-mail to those registered at the Obama website) alerted the public that FREE tickets were available at the Parma and Shaker Square offices of Organizing for America (Obama re-election headquarters) at 10 a.m. Tuesday. Since the Ohio visit was meant to be several small stops, a limited number of tickets were available. Those blew out the doors quickly, as some people lined up hours in advance to ensure that they got theirs. If you want to be sure to get the word about Obama visits, one way is to volunteer your time. That way you would be in the thick of the campaign. Volunteers are knocking on doors and making phone calls to make sure everyone knows about all the good things Obama is doing. We’d love to have you join us!

rosemary the free tickets did not blow out the door that quickly I walked in and picked up a ticket at 5pm

Jean, that's interesting. People at both offices said the tickets were gone hours before 5, so I guess you must have special pull to have found one at that hour.

BWHAHAHA.
The TP welcomes all right-wingers who believe the same ridiculous rhetoric.

The Tea Party is a fraud. Which is why a lot of them are about to be kicked to the curb. Like Jim I-Haven't-Done-A-Damn-Thing-Except-Collect-A-Check Renacci.

"Everyone"? Got any demographic breakdowns you'd like to share?

garry there is nothing constructive in nitpicking everything anyone writes , why dont you take a few days off from your insulting comments and do something that will make your neighborhood better (perhaps repaint that bathroom brown to something more happy on your siding)

James - are you serious - The Tea Party says "everyone's Welcome" I'll bring a group of Immigrant Mexicans to the next clan meeting and see how the white hats respond. The tea Party fools should be forcefully removed from our country. Bunch of misguided prejudiced rednecks. I saw that drag Queen Mandell showed up at the last dope convention in Avon. I'm lucky to be filthy rich and I will spend every penny destroying the tea party.

Thomas, I am glad that you have become so “filthy” rich under our capitalistic system.
I doubt that you could have become so wealthy under a socialistic system unless you were politically connected. I have been to several tea party events and have not witnessed the stereotypical behavioral characteristics that you have attributed to the attendees. In fact, I bet you have never even attended a tea party event. It sounds like you may actually work for the Obama campaign in some fashion. It is very telling from your hateful rhetoric e.g. “The tea Party fools should be forcefully removed from our country. Bunch of misguided prejudiced rednecks” and “drag Queen Mandell” slurs that you are more interested in espousing your hate speech and not allowing other groups their constitutional rights to free speech. Ignorant individuals like you are very dangerous and pose a threat to our civil liberties. You should be careful - since someday your own political viewpoints may become subjugated in the same manner as you are advocating.

garry does not like when provided with facts ...he just says they are lies and distortions and points the finger at others .....garry is the last of the kool-aid drinkers

Hard to stifle the printed word.

garry we will not miss your childish behavior, when person after person gives you answers you do not like, you call them liars and claim anything they write as false, all the while not providing any counter-information to backup your denials, and when you are outmatched, you scream TOS name violations and try to get users blocked.

So back to the huffinton post garry those sheep are easy to sway

Garry I don't think the patch will ever "enfoerce" anything just to pacify a bully
