Of coarse that is YOUR one-sided, and very, very biased opinion.

I see it as a vote for Romney as a sign that people HAVE opened their eyes.  They fell for the "Hope & Change" garbage that was fed to them.....they were tired of 8-years of Bush, and thought a change would do us good....and they realized that we are not better off now, than we were then.  To continue as we are is a sure path to a very very dismal economy.

but I agree, it is YOUR call...

*course

And that right here is a primary example of how you yourself negatively impact and influence the path of "dialog" within this place.

And then you post a topic to criticize others for it?  :roll eyes:

Show me where anywhere within the post you quoted I said anything that was derogatory or inflaming toward you as a person. (I didn't).

Just admit it; you are a flame junkie and you require an intervention.

WTF is a flame junkie?  :confused:

and where did I criticize others for anything?  Because I said you had a one sided biased opinion?  That was not meant to criticize, that was just an observation.
You "insinuating" that I am "gullible" or lazy, and that I am being "lied to" if I support Romney....I guess that can be considered derogatory or inflaming....

but you know PH, I am WAY over that now....your words are as potent as Ex's.....they fall upon deaf ears most of the time...and I no longer take them to heart as I once did.  Not whinning or complaining....just telling you like it is for me now.

There is NO arguing with you....THAT is his plan...he spells out EXACTLY what he "plans" to do, to allow our economy to thrive?  Did you actually go and read what he says, or did you just assume it was "diatribe" because it is Romney?

He goes into detail on Taxes, Energy, Spending, Regulations and Government Programs.  What he will do in each of these areas and how it will impact our economy.

Ask yourself this simple question: if what you are saying is Romney's "plan," why are so many Republicans saying publicly that he needs to be more specific about what he will do to fix the economy if he expects to beat Obama?  Do you know something they don't?
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.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

Can you name me some republicans that are saying that?  I have not heard ONE republican saying he needs to be more specific.  I have heard republicans claim he is NOT conservative enough, but not ONE saying he is not specific to his plan.

You chose to respond to a general statement and opinion as if it were personal, and then use it as a means with which to attack me. I did not say Hank is gullible and lazy; ironically you just did though.

If you are serious.....go to his website and read it....there is too much of a plan to put on here.  He goes into great detail on what exactly he plans to do fo FIX the economy.

  It's pie in the sky Hawk.  I liked the one on labor, the big hand shake with, FREE ENTERPRISE, FREE CHOICE, FREE SPEECH.  Mitt forgot one, NO UNIONS FOR LABOR.   :rolleyes:

  What about the one on trade, OPEN MARKETS ON TERMS THAT ARE FOR AMERICA.  WTF, who made all of the fair trade, fast track trade treaties we have now.  The sucking sound of our jobs being outsourced?  Why it was the Republicans, all started by George Bush of 42 fame.  You know the guy that got shot down in a airplane in 42 and started the shooting down of American jobs.  Yes, I know all of the stories about the rabbit hole that leads to the Republican Wonder Land.  :cheshire: :cheshire: :cheshire: :cheshire: :cheshire: :cheshire: :cheshire::haha:

1. Texas Gov. Rick Perry – The former presidential candidate is all about transparency — in this case. "I'm a big believer that no matter who you are, or what office you're running for, you should be as transparent as you can be with your tax returns and other aspects of your life so that people have the appropriate ability to judge your background and what have you," Perry said. 

2. Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley – When Bentley was recently asked if he thinks Romney should release his tax returns, he said: "I do. I release my tax returns. I may be the only public official in Alabama that does, but I release mine every year, and I just believe that people should release their tax returns."


3. Former Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour – The former Republican Party chairman thinks that the issue is a "distraction" and that Romney should release his tax returns to change the subject. "He ought to release his returns," Barbour said. "Anytime [the Romney] campaign's conversation is not about President Obama's failed policies ... then the campaign isn't talking about the right thing." 

4. Texas Representative Ron Paul – Paul said he has "no idea" why Romney has not handed over more of his tax returns.

"Politically, I think that would help him," Paul said. "In the scheme of things politically, you know, it looks like releasing tax returns is what the people want." 

5. George F. Will – The conservative commentator said that Romney is losing the argument over tax returns.

"The cost of not releasing the returns are clear," Will said. "Therefore, he must have calculated that there are higher costs in releasing them."   

6. Bill Kristol – Kristol was blunt. "He should release the tax returns tomorrow," he said. "It's crazy. You got to release six, eight, 10 years of back tax returns. Take the hit for a day or two."

7. Indiana Senator Richard Lugar – Lugar released his tax returns when he ran for president in 1996 and wonders why Romney hasn't done the same. "I have no idea on why he has restricted the number to this point," he said. 

8. Fox News commentator Brit Hume – The senior political analyst said he doesn't think it will make a difference among voters, but "anytime it's an issue between disclosure and nondisclosure, you always wonder whether it's better just to put it out there."     

9. Matthew Dowd – The former adviser to George W. Bush said, "There's obviously something there, because if there was nothing there, he would say, 'Have at it.' So there's obviously something there that compromises what he said in the past about something."

10. Republican strategist John Weaver – Weaver believes Romney should "stop demanding an apology" and instead release his taxes. "There is no whining in politics," he added.   

11. Rick Tyler – Former Newt Gingrich spokesman Tyler believes Romney should be open and honest about his role with Bain by releasing documents. "Only (Romney) can provide that information," Tyler said. "Or we'll just have drip, drip, drip to November."   

12. Chip Saltsman – Former Mike Huckabee manager Saltsman says that if Romney does not have a response, then people will start to believe the attack. "He needs to get way out in front of it, explain it with detail No. 1 to 100," Saltsman said. 

13. North Carolina Rep. Walter Jones  – Jones thinks Romney should release the last six or seven years of records. "I think he should release his financial records, and I think if he does it in July it would be a lot better than in October," Jones said. "Whenever you are asking for the vote of the American people, then you need to fully disclose what your holdings are, if you have any."

14. Michael Steele – The former RNC chairman said that Romney should at least release a few years' worth of tax returns, as it would offset the Obama campaign's attacks and "begin that drip back the other way." Added Steele, "Put out as much information as you can."   

15. Texas Rep. Pete Sessions – The head of the National Republican Congressional Committee is not exactly defending Romney's position. "His personal finances, the way he does things, his record, are fair game," Sessions said. 

16. New Hampshire GOP Chairman Wayne MacDonald – MacDonald does not think Romney has anything to hide so "there's certainly a political advantage to complying with the request," he said. He added, "There's certainly a political advantage to complying with the request."     

17. Ana Navarro – The former adviser to John McCain and Jon Huntsman said the issue would be resolved if Romney released his taxes. "He should just release the stupid taxes and eliminate the Obama campaign tactic of insinuating he's got something to hide," she said. "The Obama people are going to keep the issue alive and it has the potential of mushrooming into a bigger issue. ... It's time to just pull off the Band-Aid."   

18. David Frum – Conservative journalist Frum took to Twitter to offer Romney this advice: "Tax returns the next problem. Releasing returns under pressure: more weakness, more pain." He continued in a second tweet, "Do promptly and cheerfully what you will eventually have to do anyway."   

19. Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley – Grassley said there has been a trend for presidential nominees to release their taxes, and Romney hasn't continued that. "I don't think Romney has to do any more than presidential candidates have traditionally done," Grassley said. "I don't think he should be called on to do anything extraordinary other than what other presidential candidates have done."

I said a "few" times which can mean from one to 3 or 4 so the one time qualifies as a few times.  At any rate I don't recall you ever correcting Troll at all and I know Ex hasn't unless he disagreed with him and he had no reply for something he said.
