No matter how many times you create a thread asking the same question the answer for a large number of Americans is NO.

kentay believes most everything blabbered at him by the left, so it's no surprise that he thinks (?) everything is OK with America.  It's fine to keep on spending money we haven't got, just so nice welfare programs and other liberal wet-dreams are funded. 

The left put up a "Community Organizer" without a lick of experience in virtually any aspect of governance.  He speaks well, reads a teleprompter with enthusiasm and skill...and...

and...

Nothing else comes to mind. 
I do like the nice icon that Clara so helpfully provided for us here...

It's Obama in a nutshell.  When it was included for us to select and display, she must have had Obama in mind. 
 :strawman:
The left continues to throw everything they can lay their hand on, at Romney and Ryan.  Reason? They can't reasonably discuss anything else, since Obama has failed miserably as a President.   Romney isn't a fuzzy teddy bear type...not likable or someone you'd go "hoist a few" with.  What he is, is a pragmatic, intelligent, successful leader who's exploits in management and finance are clear and obvious (unless you hate him and want Obama for another four years)  I'll vote for him in a heartbeat because he'll do the right things for this nation...and he'll do it without playing round after round of golf.

I think this thread is more proof that Kentay doesn't actually read the articles that he posts or if he does read them he doesn't really understand what they are saying.

According to the author of the article, Robert Samuelson, we have been treading water economically speaking for four years.  I'd have to agree.  We are 1/3rd of the way through a lost decade if Obama wins again and maybe no different if Romney wins.  I'm afraid that Romney will be another big spending, big government, Republican like GWB.  But this is still no reason to vote for Obama.

My outlook today is somber.

On the bright side, if Kentay likes this article he should should read some of Robert Samuelson's other work:

I like this Ted because I think its true, why do you think Romney not way out front of President Obama or is that too deep for you to understand? kentay

OOH...
Sarcasm right  here in front of our very nose.  Ken, how could you...particularly after upbraiding me for the same thing.  Gotta learn that what's good for the goose, and all that, kentay. 

Don't worry, though.  You'll forget all about it in a few moments.  I still wouldn't trust anyone else more than I'd trust you to "have my back" if you said so.   :wuv:
