Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu needs to quit trying to dictate what the United States should do about Iran. I'm sick of listening to his whining.
Man on the street interviews are scary. Many Obama supporters are clueless when asked about who supports what in the upcoming election. No clue about current events. All they know is they support Obama because he's doing such a bang-up job.
Obama supporters have to attack Romney to swing voters their way. If they tried to focus on Obama's performance as president people would see the truth. He has no business being in the White House.
A headline from CNN Money in Republican George W. Bush's last month in office was "Job Loss Worst in 34 Years." Why would we want to go back to that by electing another Republican in Mitt Romney?
The Marshall fan who wants WVU fans to whine about being in the Big 12 could not, for obvious reasons, have any idea what it means to support a major university in a top-notch athletic conference. You have to be there to do that.
Romney and the Republicans are right about the 47 percent mooching off of the government. All entitlement programs should be cut, including Social Security, Medicaid and Medicare. The government owes us nothing and my tax dollars shouldn't be used to pay other people.
Just how will voting for Obama cost you your job in a few months after the election! Would their boss be a Republican? And going to fire them if they find out that they voted for a Democrat! Please reiterate.
I do not call my Social Security benefits or my Medicare benefits when I get old enough to receive them government benefits. ... I personally pay a huge amount of taxes and I am glad this is a country that does not pick and choose who gets assistance even if it were possible! This is America for God's sake! We help all the people.
Last night I dreamed I was dancing with the bear, Debbie Boone and the Boone Sisters in front of Donny Osmond and the Osmonds (with little Marie Osmond) in the Brady Bunch house on the Andy Williams Show. I always did like the bear most of all.
If it wasn't for gerrymandered districts and all-out efforts to suppress voter turnout, the Republicans would not have a prayer in the upcoming election. The GOP base will believe whatever they are told to believe but most Americans are fed up with their lies and ignorance.

Hypocrite liberals. Attacking Romney for past business deals while their retirement funds are growing because of the profits.
Romney is worse than the evil tycoon, Gordon Gekko in Wall Street, who said, "WASPS love animals, but hate people." Romney "loves to fire people," leave them destitute, and thinks 47 percent of Americans are worthless. But strapping his dog to the roof of his car for 12 hours shows he hates animals, too.
One candidate wants to spend more money to create even more government jobs and cut taxes, also. The other wants to revamp the tax code to give more tax breaks and then hope to grow our way out. ... The end result of both is an exponentially growing number currently at $16 trillion. How long will this insanity continue before no one honors our government credit card? Tick. Tick. Tick.
Sometimes it seems the two things our kids learn the most about at college are how to become atheists and alcoholics.
I agree with the reader saying that the wealthy stash their money in foreign bank accounts to avoid taxes. That's proof trickle-down economics of giving the wealthy tax breaks so they'll hire people doesn't work and isn't what the rich do with their tax savings.
To the person writing in not to vote for Mitt Romney when he believes the faith he practices believes in multiple gods. Well, you don't know anything about Mormons first of all, and why would anybody vote Obama when he believes everything against the Bible including abortions, same-sex marriages? Everything Obama stands for is against Jesus Christ.
Tomblin and Manchin claim they are fighting Obama and EPA to help the workingman. However, their true cause is to help the coal companies. They are trying to help the coal companies beat laws that were passed 10 years ago.
I can't believe there is talk of new tax cuts or extension of old tax cuts. We are in a big hole. Stop digging!
