14 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoWhat was this Barack Obama supporter thinking?
We interviewed a guy yesterday that came in wearing a T-shirt. Who comes to an interview wearing a T-shirt? Not only was it a T-shirt it was an Obama/Biden political T-shirt. We have 20 questions we ask everyone applying for a sys admin position and he missed all 20. It was clear his resume was over-exaggerated.
What was his angle? Did he think if we didn't offer him the job he was going to say it was because of his political views? Have you ever worn a T-shirt to an interview and expected to get that job?

14 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoWhy would the middle class want Obama to bring back Clinton's tax plan?

29 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoHas anyone else used the Obama tax calculator and doesn't trust his numbers?
I used the one on Obama's site and it says I'll be getting a bigger tax break than the one the non-partisan Tax Foundation pu out. My fiance and I make no where near 250K. I think Obama was a little vague with his tax talk. I guess we'll see somewhere around the middle of the year how much he really is or isn't going to help out those of us in the middle class.

This one has a pretty good spreadsheet made by the tax foundation:
8 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoHow many other republicans saw this election coming?
In 2006 I said the democrats would take control of the House and Senate. I also said as soon as they took over gas prices would rise and the economy would dive. In 2007 I said it would be Obama and McCain getting their party's nomination and Obama would win.
Quote me on this: In 2012 Republicans will win back the Senate and White House. The House will remain in a slight favor for the Democrats.
14 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoHas anyone been watching ABC's election coverage? Could Stephanopoulos possibly sniff Obama's throne any more?

6 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoWhen we say "voter fraud" which party comes to mind first?
"Four well-heeled New York Democrats are under investigation by an Ohio prosecutor for setting up a temporary home in the swing state - where two have already cast their ballots - just so that their votes will be counted there."
45 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoAccording to Joe Biden, a vote for Obama is a vote for an attack on America? Can you believe this guy?
“Mark my words,” the Democratic vice presidential nominee warned at the second of his two Seattle fundraisers Sunday. “It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. We’re about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America. Remember I said it standing here if you don’t remember anything else I said. Watch, we’re gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy.”
“I can give you at least four or five scenarios from where it might originate,” Biden said to Emerald City supporters, mentioning the Middle East and Russia as possibilities. “And he’s gonna need help. And the kind of help he’s gonna need is, he’s gonna need you - not financially to help him - we’re gonna need you to use your influence, your influence within the community, to stand with him. Because it’s not gonna be apparent initially, it’s not gonna be apparent that we’re right.”
Basically he's saying Obama is so untested that other countries will want to attack the US. Why would anyone in America want that? I've said it for months, Biden will be the iceberg to Obama's Titanic. This guy was such a bad choice.
