Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

Okay. . . how about taking the words of your own conservative idols??

. . .According to the Washington Post in late July 2008, former Undersecretary of State and U.N. Ambassador John R. Bolton was referring to Rice and her allies in the Bush Administration whom he believes have abandoned earlier hard-line principles when he said: "Once the collapse begins, adversaries have a real opportunity to gain advantage. In terms of the Bush presidency, this many reversals this close to the end destroys credibility... It appears there is no depth to which this administration will not sink in its last days."[113]
Former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld repeatedly criticized Rice after their terms in office ended. In his book, Known and Unknown: A Memoir, he portrayed her as a young, inexperienced academic who didn't know her place.[114] In 2011 she finally responded, saying that Rumsfeld "Doesn't know what he's talking about."[115]
In his book, "In My Time," Dick Cheney suggested that Rice had misled the president about nuclear diplomacy with North Korea, saying she was naïve. He called her advice on the issue "utterly misleading."
He also chided Rice for clashing with White House advisers on the tone of the president's speeches on Iraq and said that she, as the Secretary of State, ruefully conceded to him that the Bush administration should not have apologized for a claim the president made in his 2003 State of the Union address, on Saddam's supposed search for yellowcake uranium. She "came into my office, sat down in the chair next to my desk, and tearfully admitted I had been right," Cheney wrote.
Rice responded: "It certainly doesn't sound like me, now, does it?", saying that she viewed the book as an "attack on my integrity."[116]
Rice has also been criticized by other conservatives. Stephen Hayes of the Weekly Standard accused her of jettisoning the Bush Doctrine.[117] Other conservatives criticized her for her approach to Russia policy and other issues.[118] Many criticize Rice in particular for her opposition to the change of strategy in Iraq and surge in U.S. forces that began in 2007.. . .

So if this is the way the party truly feels about Condi, why is her name being floated by the conservative Golden Idol as being under consideration for the VP slot?

Answer: (IMO) Because she represents an out for the party's unabashed racisim and the racist agenda it has undertaken over the last 4 years; and she can be handled should they win. . .  :rolleyes:

                                             :4th3:  :fireworks:  MY PLEDGE TO AMERICA  :fireworks:  :4th3:


  When I was born, I was lucky to be born with a golden spoon in my mouth.  I lived in a mansion with cooks and many servants.  I went to the finest private boarding schools.  Where being quite a prankster my gang of other rich kids cut of hair of one of the boys we made fun of.  I and my gang got quite a laugh out of it.

  Getting ready for college, Harvard my daddy gave me over a million dollars in stock to pay for my college.  During that time I dodged the draft, going to France as a Mormon preacher trying to convert French citizens to become Mormons.  While there I lived in a French Chateau where there was a chief and servants.  Life was good.  Tho I like war I couldn't go because my Mormon church came first.  Like so many other things come first, like myself.

  After the war I came home where dad gave me some more money to start and get into business, Bain Capital.  The business plan was to buy business that were making a profit and borrowing all the money I  could since I am the sole owner and sole stock holder, taking millions of dollars which put the companies out of business.  Which I closed down or off shored or outsourced.  I and the others who worked for me were the pioneers of out rsourcing or off shoring.

  With the business savvy I have, I amassed a fortune of over $250 Million dollars which I have safely stored off shore in eight countries to safely guard my money from bad times in America and nosy people who want to know how I made my money.  I sorry to say these funds are not a help to the American economy since they are off shored.  But, I take good care of my money and business since I am the sole owner and stockholder,

  My $500,000 in gold which in reality doesn't help the economy is stored in a bank or vault where it is safely contained.  I also make $23 Million a year on my investments which I paid 14.3%.  I paid all of my legally and I do mean legally owed taxes.

  I further promise and swear that I will continue the policies of George W. Bush and the Republican Party to the best of my abilities.  Except to put the policies  of the Republican party on steroids, of tax cuts for the rich, deregulation of all laws on all business, corporations, banks and the stock market to renew American and the American way of life.

  I also promise and swear that I will look out and care for the old, poor, downtrodden, disfranchised and the middle class people of American safe guarding the safety nets that are in place now.

  You ask you why a person who has accumulated over a quarter of a Billion dollars, why I would want to run for president of the United States of American.  Well, it to give back to the country and it's laws which enabled me to make the money the way I have, over $250 Million and placed overseas and off shored and out of reach.  So help me on my Mormon Bible.

  Another thing I found out last week the the heirs of Sam Walton of Walmart fame, that family, has more money than the lower 25% of the 99%ers.  With the Republican controlled Supreme Court ruling on Citizens United a Republican front group is letting the Millionaires, Billionaires and onshore and outshore corporations buy our government.  Buy the country, states, counties for their own.

Either Romney has an unresolved father figure issue, or he has some special reason not to follow a tradition established by his father.

  Romney is a gold plated tin man.  Greedy, no conscience, no morals and no heart.  Being a con man and a lair, he is the last thing we want as president.  He is out for himself and the other super rich assholes.  What great Mormon preacher.  :preach: and let us pray :pray:  we don't get him.   :rant:

Palehorse

http://www.cnn.com/2012/07/18/opinion/kleinbard-canellos-romney-tax/index.html?hpt=hp_c1

. . .So, what are the issues?
The first is Romney's Swiss bank account. Most presidential candidates don't think it appropriate to bet that the U.S. dollar will lose value by speculating in Swiss Francs, which is basically the rationale offered by the trustee of Romney's "blind" trust for opening this account. What's more, if you really want just to speculate on foreign currencies, you don't need a Swiss bank account to do so.
The Swiss bank account raises tax compliance questions, too.

The account seems to have been closed early in 2010, but was the income in fact reported on earlier tax returns? Did the Romneys timely file the required disclosure forms to the Treasury Department (so-called FBAR reports)?
The IRS announced in 2009 a partial tax amnesty for unreported foreign bank accounts, in light of the Justice Department's criminal investigations involving several Swiss banks. To date, some 34,500 Americans have taken advantage of such amnesty programs. Did the Romneys avail themselves of any of these amnesty programs? One hopes that such a suggestion is preposterous, but that is what disclosure is for -- to replace speculation with truth-telling to the American people.
Second, Romney's $100 million IRA is remarkable in its size. Even under the most generous assumptions, Romney would have been restricted to annual contributions of $30,000 while he worked at Bain. How does this grow to $100 million?
One possibility is that a truly mighty oak sprang up virtually overnight from relatively tiny annual acorns because of the unprecedented prescience of every one of Romney's investment choices.
Another, which on its face is quite plausible, is that Romney stuffed far more into his retirement plans each year than the maximum allowed by law by claiming that the stock of the Bain company deals that the retirement plan acquired had only a nominal value. He presumably would have done so by relying on a special IRS "safe harbor" rule relating to the taxation of a service partner's receipt of such interests, but that rule emphatically does not apply to an interest when sold to a retirement plan, which is supposed to be measured by its true fair market value.
Third, the vast amounts in Romney's family trusts raise a parallel question: Did Romney report and pay gift tax on the funding of these trusts or did he claim similarly unreasonable valuations, which likewise would have exposed him to serious penalties if all the facts were known?
Fourth, the complexity of Romney's one publicly released tax return, with all its foreign accounts, trusts, corporations and partnerships, leaves even experts (including us) scratching their heads. Disclosure of multiple years' tax returns is part of the answer here, but in this case it isn't sufficient. Romney's financial affairs are so arcane, so opaque and so tied up in his continuing income from Bain Capital that more is needed, including an explanation of the $100 million IRA.
Finally, there's the puzzle of the Romneys' extraordinarily low effective tax rate.
For 2010, the Romneys enjoyed a federal tax rate of only 13.9% on their adjusted gross income of roughly $22 million, which gave them a lower federal tax burden (including payroll, income and excise taxes) than the average American wage-earning family in the $40,000 to $50,000 range. The principal reason for this munificently low tax rate is that much of Romney's income, even today, comes from "carried interest," which is just the jargon used by the private equity industry for compensation received for managing other people's money.
The vast majority of tax scholars and policy experts agree that awarding a super-low tax rate to this one form of labor income is completely unjustified as a policy matter. Romney has not explained how, as president, he can bring objectivity to bear on this tax loophole that is estimated as costing all of us billions of dollars every year. . .
