Barack Obama Re-Elected President
President Obama defeated Republican Mitt Romney in the 2012 presidential election.
President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden were re-elected Tuesday night, defeating Republican challenger Mitt Romney and his vice-presidential running mate Rep. Paul Ryan.
NBC News called the presidential election for Obama around 11:15 EST. The president sent a message on Twitter at 10:14 saying simply, "This happened because of you. Thank you."
The Obama campaign won the most expensive presidential race ever, with both parties raising about $2.6 billion. The race was filled with negative campaigning on both sides, from President Obama attacking Romney's business experience with Bain Capital to Romney lambasting Obama's handling of the economy.
The race tightened during the final months of the campaign, with gaffes and surges from both candidates. After a weak performance after the Republican Convention, Romney surged following Obama's listless performance after the first presidential debate. Nevertheless, the president cemented a lead in battleground states heading into Tuesday's election.
Barack Obama won Maryland's 10 electoral votes on Tuesday, defeating Republican Mitt Romney.
He captured 60 percent of the votes in Maryland.
In the 2008 presidential election, the state voted for the Democratic candidate, and since the 1990s has voted for the overall winner of the presidential race three out of five times.
Obama's performance in Maryland wasn't necessarily surprising, considering Maryland has voted for the Democratic candidate in recent presidential elections.

Yesss!! And be Happy Know quality when you see it. We dealt with shhht and inequality for decades. Be pleases to deal with someone that's moving America forward. Mitt Romney Roni sure wasn't it. That's why he is not president.

Do you think we'll continue to exist as a nation for 4 more years? With the crime rate rising every day, no jobs, everything imported how long will we be able to continue at the present rate? It doesn't look promising at all. This man will certainly have his hands full if he tries to deal with all this. If he tries.
1:20 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
LOL, please see a psychiatrist, Al Day. Crime's going up? The nation will cease to exist? How many tin foil hats do you own?

You my have kicked your own butt.
Dow futures slumped 110 points to 13090, S&P 500 futures slipped 8.8 points to 1417 and Nasdaq 100 futures dipped 10.5 points to 2665. (Stock market this morning)
Nice start for the president. Wait until the military downsize starts.
What are you going to do when the checks dry up and the recession starts.
9:13 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Buzz, we will have this discussion in 6 months. A single day's results a trend is not created. Like saying today's forecast of snow means a blizzard is on the way.
The Republicans tried to pin a bad economy on the President and almost succeeded.
And yes, the military needs downsized. I am tired of paying for troops in Europe, Japan and Korea while those companies sell goods and make profits off us.
Dwight D. Eisenhower said, "In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the militaryindustrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist." He warned us, except that the "potential" is now here.
9:14 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Buzz, get a life. Cherry-picking the PRE MARKET trading of 1 index on 1 day proves something to you??? How about look at FOUR YEARS: the stock market rising more under Obama's stewardship than under any president EVER. Up, what, 75% since Obama took office? What a troll.
10:33 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Yess! President Obama is not a one side president he wants equality for all. Unlike the presidents of old. People need to stay awake. If you put up with all the negativity for all those year and now you want to ask the question about 4 more years, yes 4 more years toward cleaning up the shhhht that all the other presidents made.if they were doing so much why is the economy the way it is. it didn't get this way in the last 4 years, its been like this for almost a decade and some. Good post Honeygo.

Re: Al Day
"The year 2010 was overall the most free of serious crime in almost forty years. The recent overall decrease spans all types of such crime, with violent and property crimes having reached an all-time low. The homicide rate in particular decreased 51% between its record high point in 1991 and 2010"
The crime rate is clearly not going up.

Deficit at an astronomical point and increasing faster than a Mexican can cross the border. The jobs outlook in this country worse than at any time since the great depression. The housing market sitting on foreclosures as far as the eye can see. And the government subsidized mental midgets that get to vote made sure there were NO changes to our leadership! Moving America forward! HA! Who will you idiots blame 4 years from now!

Well one thing is for sure Jag has the financial IQ of a turnip. It is obvious Jag does not understand equity markets. Obama has greatly assisted precious metal investors thanks to his irresponsible fiscal bailouts and unlimited quantitative easing initiated by his friends at the federal reserve. Thank God Obama was reelected! The next four years will offer exponential wealth building opportunities for anyone who understands what is happening. For the rest of the financially clueless, good luck you're going to need it.

Shawn, then quit being financially clueless. I'm not going to apologize for the size and gains my (and millions of other) brokerage accounts have seen under Obama.
Daniel Reinhardt
8:35 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
You are aware that our dollar is losing the value the faster the government prints more money, and the companies out there could be over valuing their stocks to make up for lost value of the dollar which could explain the fact that stock market has been "positive" mean while many of those same companies are not hiring new employees, because they simply cannot afford it.
9:01 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
I have found in the past people who feel the need to brag about "the size of their portfolio and their gains" have no portfolio at all. You have already expressed your ignorance concerning the equity markets. There is no need to continue to discredit your lack of financial IQ any further. After all Jag it's your story tell it how you like.
9:28 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Shawn, if you knew what made the markets move you should would not be posting on the Patch. Talk about clueless.
9:44 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
FIFA, I never stated anything about knowing what moves the markets. I post on the patch simply for the joy of debating. That said to debate takes a minimum of another intelligent poster. Unfortunately as you and jag have proven, finding another intelligent poster can be difficult here on the patch. Cheers
9:53 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Trapping liars, like you, is always fun, I enjoy it, I do have a substantial portfolio but that is my business. Anonymity is a good thing. But for the record, you said:
"Obama has greatly assisted precious metal investors thanks to his irresponsible fiscal bailouts and unlimited quantitative easing initiated by his friends at the federal reserve." This indicates you believe you know what moved the market as it relates to precious metal investors.
Although I may agree with you that there are many fools and ignorant people that post on the Patch, beware, I am not one of those.
10:33 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
"the companies out there could be over valuing their stocks to make up for lost value of the dollar which could explain the fact that stock market has been 'positive'"
Oh my lord in heaven. Could we get some financial literacy up in here, please?
6:17 am on Thursday, November 8, 2012
FIFA again the need to brag about your "substantial portfolio" is a dead giveaway you're pretending to be something you're not. But hey on the internet you can pretend to be whoever you want to be. To be more blunt (so it's easier for you to understand) liar, liar pants on fire.

And with less than a majority of the popular vote. How will he govern without a mandate? Our nation is divided in half with both sides pulling in the opposite direction. Our enemies are laughing at us. Especially the chinese who now loan us all our money. Just wonderful. I figure by the time Obama's term is up there won't be anything left for our children. Except a large bill.
Honeygo Hal
12:52 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
By morning Obama will likely be ahead in the popular vote - California is not in yet, and other states have more returns straggling in.
Republicans are typically negative-minded - it looks like you fit right in.
Every time there is a debt discussion the GOP talks about leaving nothing for the kids. It happened in the '70s & '80s, too. Yes it's something to be addressed, but not to the degree the GOP would have you believe.
Sleep on it - the world is not ending.
1:33 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
"And with less than a majority of the popular vote."
Completely false.
"the chinese who now loan us all our money."
Completely false.
Thanks for playing, though.
7:37 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
This is about earlier comments you made--couldn't find a reply option. As noted before, crime is down. Obama did win the popular vote. And did you notice the recession we just had? I don't want to be hateful (hate "enemies," hate immigrants, hate uppity women, hate blacks and Hispanics and foreigners, hate divorcees, hate gay people, etc.) like the Tea Party, but I think if we weren't born yesterday, we know the mess we're in is a Republican mess. 70% of our national economy is ordinary people (the 99%) shopping, and if you take all the money from them and give it to the rich, who don't spend it in OUR economy, as has been happening since 1970, you get the recession we just had. Great books by Bob Reich, Paul Krugman, and others show us how we got into this mess. I think you should be less aggressive and also should be more rigorous about the facts.

Why did the deficit go up? You always do deficit spending in wars and in recessions--nobody but government has any money to spend to get things going again. AND who left the need for all this deficit spending; who created the wars and recession? Unemployment is falling, actually. We're in the soup, but Obama's actions are pulling us out of it.

IF Obama was black (and he isn't, he's of mixed race with a very white mother), then I could see making this about race. It isn't. It's about the fact that there are two parties in this country, both of whom are so extreme that this election was about choosing the lesser of TWO evils. My life is not better off than it was four years ago and I don't think that it will be now, that's for sure. However, I also don't believe that Romney would have made it better either. That's why I don't subscribe to either party. I think for myself.
8:52 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012

Economists are predicting other recession while Europe is falling apart. Look at the market, some winning party. Down almost 200 pts.
Mark my words with the world economy slowing in Europe and China, who owns a large portion of our debt, we will go into a deep recline.

How dumb can one person be? Since 1929 when a Republican has been President the average annual price change of equities has been less than 0%. In the same period when a Democrat has been President the average has been 7%.
The market is going to skyrocket.

You can't get unemployment benefits if you quit. Get them to lay you off then you will be eligible. Better yet, get a job with a huge company and fake a workman's comp injury. Or you can quit your job and live off of foodstamps, and after a year or two qualify for medicaid after you lie about not be able to get a job. It's pretty simple and fun - good luck.

Where was Obama instead of dealing with the disaster. Playing basketball!
3:09 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Buzz, the comment about Obama taking a day off of "work" to relax and play basketball is unfair. You know he was still working. He still had to run a country while running for reelection unlike Romney and the 535 members of Congress.

Sonia Dasgupta, I believe most of the comments made on this site should be flagged. It appears some writers are very immature (maybe even young folks). They are making very unintelligent remarks. I don't have time to spent flagging them all, but I do agree with you.
We all need to pay attention to what happens to our country for our future generation. If Obama can make it better, I will be happy. I voted for Mitt Romney. Obama will need a lot of help. It will be no easy job. I didn't see how the President pulled Congress together the last four years. There are reasons the Republicans played hardball. Let's see what happens the next four years. The election is over and if we want change we need to work for it. We are a democracy. I accept the results.
Chuck Burton
10:12 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
If there was no hope for Gary Johnson, at least voters didn't elect Romney! The Republicans seem to want to bring about a kind of neo-feudalism, with the lords and ladies of wealth trickling down a pittance to the serfs they hold under their thumbs. Even Socialism seems better than that!
M. Sullivan
10:13 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Obama and the incumbents won because of two main groups of voters, those living off the free handouts who want that to continue and increase, and the clueless types who are the prime target for marketing companies. Mainstream working taxpayers are, by many measures, far worse off than they were 4 years ago. Yet, guys like Obama, Cardin, and Dutch get reelected. Truly amazing!

Please God Rand Paul 2016. Republican party needs a major facelift
Frank in Elkridge
10:18 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
If Republicans thought Rand Paul could have gotten elected, he would have been the nominee instead of Romney. Fact is Romney was the most viable candidate for the the Republican party - and he got really close.
Frank McCants
10:37 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
I understand that he had no shot this time around. He is young and will have more experience by 2016. He has already published himself and needs time to be heard. Fact is that the Republican party is losing favor with the ever changing voting base and some of the neocon ideals must be eradicated from the party.
11:00 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
I totally agree, Frank.
Problem is, this country needs a lot of change, more then it's comfortable with.
Although I still hold, to this day, that Jon Huntsman would have defeated Barack Obama. He just wasn't willing to be 'crazy' enough to please the rabid Tea party during the vetting process.
11:05 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
If the republicans nominate Rand Paul, you will lose again. His social views make Paul Ryan look like a liberal.

"His social views make Paul Ryan look liberal."
I highly doubt you are well informed of his views, but at least he does not ry to enforce controversial 50/50 issues on the entire nation. For instance he opposed to same-sex marriage, but wants to delegate marriage laws entirely to the states without interfering. Nothing wrong with that even if you disagree with his personal stance.
4:06 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Frank, sorry, I am well informed of his views. Nominate him and you will lose again. No question about. The mainstream Republican party will never allow a Tea Party favorite to be their nominee. Move farther to the right and you will lose more elections. I would think you learned that this time. Guess not.
Buzz Beeler
10:22 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Jag, you said four years. I did. He increased the deficit by the largest increase of any president along with the debt.
Wait till the checks decrease and the dry up. He did not win by a landslide and the country is strongly divided, but sadly divided and broke lead to upheaval.
Chuck Burton
10:38 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
I'm no fan of Obama, but remember that he had little to do with the do with the deficit - it was mostly created by Bush's man Bernanke. He is the one who has been buying federal debt with imaginary (counterfeit) bucks he creates out of thin air.
Buck Harmon
10:39 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
When the apathetic majority begin to wake up....that's when the upheavel you speak of will begin...those human beings have not payed attention to educate themselves as to the ways of government will have no other option to draw from. Control is more the issue to speak of..
11:22 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Buzz, you are being extraordinarily unfair for pinning the debt increase (you misspoke I believe) on Obama. The deficit was 1.2 Trillion on inauguration day and to imagine anyone making that disappear is unrealistic and I believe you know that.
10:44 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
First off to Steve, FIFA, 1ke & Honeygo congratulations to your candidate for winning the Presidency. I can only hope and pray that he does more these next four years then he did with the first four. In my opinion unless the President and Congress pulls their heads out of their butts and work together we are going to have status quo.
10:57 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Your graciousness is appreciated.
Regarding your point, that we can agree on. They (all of them) need to learn how to work at least 5 days a week and get something done. Taking off work for two month to go get re-elected is sick.
11:07 am on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Eastsider: Here's something we can probably all agree on. There's lots of blame to go around. Heck, Bachman, one of the top crazies in the Tea Party, BARELY won re-election. Akin got beat. Paul Ryan was re-elected but his district also voted for Obama at the same time, not Romney.
The Norquist Pledge needs to go. it's a nice idea if your nation's debt to GDP ratio isn't over 100%. Meanwhile, 'true liberals' need to accept Obama's idea of balancing the budget based on a premise of 2.5 to 1 ratio of cuts to taxes, and NO, increasing revenue does NOT mean you spend it. It goes towards balancing the budget and nothing more. That's still talking about a resolution that's 71% spending cuts.
Would doing this hurt the economy? Absolutely - for a while. Reality is, as a nation we've had it too easy for too long. It's time to pull together and - seriously - start chipping away at the debt we're leaving the generations ahead. It won't be easy, but I feel like it's time to pay for our collective fiscal mistakes, and get that deficit down to about half of what it is over the next 20 years.

Glad you mentioned Congress! Neither Obama, nor Romney would have a chance to accomplish anything with a Congress as divided as either the old one or the new one is. The lords and ladies of wealth prevail on their Republican satraps to push the National Debt over onto the heads of the serfdom, but we are swiftly approaching the "fiscal cliff", and unless they give a little, everyone is going over like a pack of lemmings! It'll be great for the tax preparers, though.
12:41 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
How do you recommend that the President or even the Republican Party deal with the rising tide of fascist ideology and untenable economics embodied by the Tea Party?

Christopher Kidwell
2:24 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Agreed. Biggest thing that hurt Romney was that the idiot didn't know when to keep his mouth shut and lambaste his own part on those statements about forcible rape and other things.
It did not help that he came out as supporting those positions and/or his friends came out with recollections of him supporting those positions in the past.

Chuck how much has the debt and deficit increased during his term alone? Remember his promises? If I can't fix it it will be one term?
Christopher Kidwell
2:21 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Buzz, the problem is that he HAS fixed everything except the jobs situation. Period and done with, he has fixed the economy save for jobs.
That is out of his hands and out of Congress's hands (unless they are willing to start DIScouraging outsourcing). It also didn't help that the corporations and rich had a plan to make Obama look bad by not hiring and making their workers do the work of 2 or 3 people.
Chuck Burton
4:05 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Promises are cheap - everyone makes promises they suspect they can't keep. And all politicians lie thru their teeth. Romney made a lot of promises - if he'd been elected we'd soon be asking when he was going to do what he said, and he'd be hemming and hawing just like Obama. HA!!
Buzz Beeler
12:03 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
FIFA, I hated Bush but I look at the numbers. What was the increase under Obama over and above Bush.
We are in a whole so deep and it's getting deeper. I think you are intelligent (since I found out about the other issues) and you know the middle class including the 1% can't dig us out of this hole and, count on this, it will get worse, much worse.
The market today is a calling card and the fiscal cliff is another and I don't see either party willing to compromise. DOW is down 300 already.
Gotta go for now be back later. It's not only us but the world economy also. People just don't understand, they just feel good and that ain't going to cut it.
They are calling for another recession, one we can't bear at this point.
Christopher Kidwell
2:19 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Buzz, we are not in a hole at all in anything but the jobs situation, which was and probably will still be manipulated by big companies outsourcing overseas in order to make the Democrats and Obama look bad.
They had a PLAN to make Obama a one-term President by manipulating the job numbers. Thankfully, the American people saw through that plan and voted Obama back into office anyway.
Now, Obama just has to find the right way to steamroller over Republican objections and get some laws PENALIZING companies for outsourcing to countries that don't have at least equal environmental protection laws to the United States, unless those companies adhere to American environmental protection standards even overseas.

Contemplating applying for disability and move my 401K/403B money out of mutual funds before the market crashes again. On the up side of things, there is no longer a need to think about or bother making charitable contributions for any purpose; it will already be taken out of our paychecks for us!

I'm with you Mary, if you can't beat them join them, I'm sure there are some Obama handouts available I can make myself qualify for, food and the cell phone bill keep going up so i'm going to start with them first. I would definitely pull your money from the market in this country, surprisingly enough China's is up today so that's likely a better place for it. On the charitable contributions I was thinking the same thing this morning, I already donate to charity via my taxes so sorry Red Cross and United Way but the Government beat you to my wallett.

Right in one. It's a known historical fact, the numbers (linked from federal websites) are easily available on Wikipedia.
1:10 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Blame Bush I hear. Well all of you remember January 3rd, 2007 when the Democrats took over the House and the Senate.That's when Barney Frank took over the House Financial Services Committee and Chris Dodd took over the Senate Banking Committee. Where was Barack Obama during this time? He was a member of that very Congress that passed all of these massive spending bills, and he signed the omnibus bill as President in 2009.
Christopher Kidwell
1:52 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
False. Once you take into account Blue Dogs and DINO's, the Democrats never had control of the House nor the Senate.
It's also extremely hard to get a Democrat to vote in 'lockstep' with the party while it is infinitely easier to get a Republican to do that.
1:14 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Who is he going to blame now. 16.2 trillion in debt today. What's the deficit going to look like in 4 more years?
2:03 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
You're kidding yourself if you think Romney's "plan" would lower the deficit faster than Obama's. "Tax cuts for everyone, oh, and increase defense spending a couple trillion. Don't worry, I'll find a magical, unnamed loophole to close and that'll make up for the 7 TRILLION in increased spending I'm proposing!" You're surprised the electorate didn't buy that crap?
Christopher Kidwell
2:09 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
G-Man, need we keep reminding you: Nearly 90% of that debt is due to George W. Bush Jr.'s two wars, from Presidents dating back to Reagan, and from unfunded mandates left by George W. Bush Jr. when he left office.
The 'debt' that Obama had the nation take on was done by BIPARTISAN votes for things such as the bailout of GM and other companies.
Cynthia Newcomer
1:25 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Wow, I'm kind of astounded by this conversation. Obama called a pimp and a socialist, talk of the 47% and their entitlement, people on welfare, etc. Obama is nowhere near a socialist. "Welfare" barely exists anymore -- it was decimated under President Clinton. CNN says "In the 16 years since President Clinton and Congress overhauled the nation's welfare system, the number of people receiving cash assistance has fallen by two-thirds. And public spending on the program has dropped by more than half." You wanna really talk welfare? Let's talk corporate welfare. Come on people, all but a very few of us are suffering. Let's stop the horizontal hostility and start directing it up to the corporate elites where it belongs.
I'm far to the left of President Obama, but I'm grateful for his leadership on pay equity, health care, and so much more. Just wait until the rest of the Affordable Care Act kicks in, I think all the naysayers will realize its value. The lifting of the pre-existing conditions exclusion is major. And already in effect is the provision that insurance companies can't cap people's lifetime benefits. That is a lifesaver for anyone who has a chronic or serious illness that requires ongoing care. How can anyone except the profiteers oppose that? For those of you who complain about "entitlement" programs, I suppose this means you'll never use social security or medicare? That you'll never be in a position to need food stamps or unemployment?
Christopher Kidwell
1:39 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Agreed, Cynthia. I have some relatives on welfare and it is nowhere near being like it was in the 1980's. In order to draw welfare you have to work wherever they can get you a job or be sending out massive numbers of job applications every month, just like with unemployment.
You are also right about the corporate welfare. With 2/3rds of companies (even huge multinational companies with billion dollar profits) not paying any taxes or even getting money back from the federal government while their employees are on the social assistance programs..... we have a serious problem today.
To many conservatives however think that they will someday 'be rich' if they keep working themselves to exhaustion for their employer when the truth is that they will never be rich and they are being taken advantage of by their employer most times.
Patricia J. Kelly
8:42 am on Thursday, November 8, 2012
Cynthia please explain "Affrodable" in my opinion that means someone can afford their monthly payments. Insurance companies can still raise your Premiums as they please. Someone now who makes $30,000 a yr is paying the same as someone making $100,000 a yr. What about the self employed and small biz owners? My insurance agent said by 2014 nobody will be able to afford Health Insurance. A cap needs to be put on Lawsuites I believe that is the majority of the health care cost besides working folks of course paying for the nonworking. I hate the fact that we have to choose between a mortgage, car payment, light bill or Health Insurance....don't try to tell me there different plans becaue they don't cover squat. Since there are so many "Arm Chair Quarterbacks" here any suggestions or opinions...I know there are. Thanks.

There is no Santa, Buzz. You know that. A subsistence wage, every penny of which gets spent and recirculated throughout the economy, is no great gift. Nobody who makes policy or influences policy gives a hoot where money comes from.
Welfare, unemployment insurance, and subsidized health care all are efforts to mollify the negative effects of structural unemployment on GNP and to keep people in the greatest country in the world from triggering bread riots.
Glad you got yours, Buzz, and no need to worry.

Number one I never thought Romney could win because he ran a bad campaign or could win with Obama giving all the goodies away to those who live off the government.
Number two the congratulations card from the market was 300 points down which means we may be on the way to a recession.
Over 80% of immigrants are from the South America and are poor and illiterate. Like you it's "Rush's" not "Rush,s." I guess that is why i see many comments that refer to you in a negative way.
Was it Boeing that just announced a large layoff after the election.
Mark my words we are in deep trouble despite despite the fact that most blacks and Latinos voted for Obama. You can't overcome a 16% trillion debt.
If Obama doesn't turn the economy around in the next four years the Dems are dead.

Michael Ernest
4:21 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
I am trying to understand why a president who does not obey federal laws should be re-elected.
Take for example his failure to comply with
his legal responsibilities regarding the "Medicare trigger". That trigger (covered under Title 31 of the U.S. code) is a forecast from the Medicare Trustees that general revenues will be required for
45% or more of the program's outlays within a seven-year period, which signals that Medicare is financially unsustainable. The President is required to respond to Congress, but
though the Medicare Trustees issued a warning in 2009, 2010, 2011, and again this past spring, Obama has ignored the law each year and failed to submit the required budgetary legislation to Congress.
But President Bush did so in 2008 and made the necessary budget adjustments.
President Obama could not have forgotten about this as Representative Ryan and Senator Sessions reminded him of his duties in a March 2012 letter.
Now President Obama will not comply with a federal law covered by the Regulatory Flexibility Act requiring him to release his regulatory agenda because he didn't want
Americans voters to know the negative effect it will have on the economy when he wins re-election -- includes the loss of an estimated 887,000 jobs annually,
Obama has failed to comply with the law twice over the past year – specifically the April and October deadlines.
It now makes sense why he was re-elected -those that voted for him do not respect federal law as well.
5:37 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Psst Michael, let go of the banana. Your man lost, its over, the fat lady is singing away. Romney has packed his bag and leaving on a jet plane, etc., etc.

Notice that the MD presidential vote was roughly 60-40 close to the DEM-GOP registration, but look at our representation in Congress: two democrat career politicians in the Senate and now 7 out 8 democrat representatives in the House because of MOM's grotesque gerrymandered election districts that ensure democrat tenure for the same deadwood. MOM and his cohorts are already probably plotting how to steal the remaining seat to turn MD into an even bluer state. And yet the same folks are re-elected year after year. Just makes no sense at all.

The Republicans need a wake up call. People from the old guard will not work in the 21st century. I feel a lot of people voted for Obama because he connected with them. His post election "fire and brim" speech explains this. Hell, I even thought the speech was good. Please Republicans, wake up!!!!!

Why do a lot of people call you a moron? Obama won because he faced a less formidable candidate. It's hard to beat Santa Klaus.
The market was down over 300 points. Good start. When your goodies stop so does Obama's halo fade away.
9:51 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
The market dropping is grossly overrated. It'll bounce back in the next couple days. Life goes on.
The market's gone up over 3500 points since Obama's been in office.
Even this is marginally relevant to his presidency.

Yes the Republicans are out of sync with the changing demographics of America...Romney's clip on the 47%, Ad about Jeep jobs going to China, and Self deportation remark on immigration hurt him with minorities....they need to learn from this. The days are over when a rich, white business man and his cronies will win the White House.

Frank the Times is the # one paper in the world. It's not the Towson times. It indicates a troubled economy and I predict a deep recession based on what the economists are saying.
When Obama cuts the defense budget (Boeing had a large layoff today) The trickle down theory will have a tremendous effect.
I knew Obama would win because it's hard to beat the uninformed and Santa Klaus.

Chuck Burton
10:50 pm on Wednesday, November 7, 2012
Patton and Rommel were generals - they had fronts to lead from. Obama and Romney are politicians, and have desks and podiums (maybe playing courts) to stay behind and try to get others to believe their lies and do what they are instructed to do and take the blame for the boss's mistakes.

What I wonder about is if Obama cares about Americans, why did he he leave to Navy Seals fight for almost six hours? What does that say what he cares about domestically?
I am a small business owner, in 2008 we had 20 strong. Now I am down to 8.
Now tell me who cares about Americans?

Whatever you say, MDBronco. Not sure why you expect me to have a "thought of my own" as I'm simply encouraging you to learn English if you'd like us to give weight to your opinion. I'd love to know what you were ranting about, but "why did he he leave to Navy Seals....What does that say what he cares about domestically?" just isn't close enough to English for me to decipher. Sorry. There are a number of adult ESL (English as a second language) classes out there; I think you'd do well to enroll in a couple. Cheers.

It amazes me how the u.s can be run by a non American.... Our grandfather's and great grandfathers are definitely rolling over in their graves.... I wonder how much more Obama can run into the ground in the next four years.. this country is so much worse since Obama took over... Unemployment is the highest ever, gas prices keep rising, he wants to raise taxes again, economy hasn't gotten better at all, the list goes on and on.... So please tell me what he has done good for this country??? And don't use some lame excuse that its Bush's fault because that's just complete BS.....
Just a guy
7:25 am on Thursday, November 8, 2012
Harfordlifetimer, WFT? He is an American. PERIOD!.
My great grandfather was French, immigrated to this country and became an American.
Unemployment was much higher between 1929-1938... As a percentage of population, and actual number of unemployed.
The President has NOTHING to do with gas prices. You want cheap gas? Don't teach the Chinese, Africans, or Indians to drive. It's supply and demand, and unfortunatly, there really is a limited amount of refining capacity, even if there was some excess crude production capacity.
Yes, he wants to raise some taxes. You can't cut simply cut sending, to attempt to fix our problems. But, if he raises taxes on those making 1 million a year or more, how does that affect you? Heck, it doesn't affect me at all.

The headlines should be screaming "Millions of Americans duped again".
Axelrod and the Chicago gang ran one of the sleaziest campaigns ever defining Romney as something he was not. What is the definition of insanity? Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. Sadly, we will get more of the same from a president who was in over his head from day one. The Obamabots swallowed their lies, hook, line and sinker.
Just a guy
7:50 am on Thursday, November 8, 2012
Romney did that himself. In trying to win the nomination, he had to appease the nutbag far right, in the primaries. How many times did he and Mr Ryan evade, backslid, flip flop, or flat out lie on a position?
Jeep sending all jobs to China? Lie
Anti Abortion in all cases? Yes, then, Nope not me...
Being either misinformed or just pandering to old, rich, white donors, by actually saying what he thinks, (or worse, just what they want to hear), with the 47% remarks.
As a Party, the Republicans and Mr Romney went about ignoring, or insulting the fastest growing demographics. (Hispanic Americans, Black Americans, and single Women) While counting on white males to carry them. Sorry, but that dog won't hunt anymore.
While Republicans mostly held onto congressional seats, for now, (where local is more important,and you can get away with being a nutbag fascist.. See Michele Bachmann...), on a state wide, or national level, they got their butts kicked.
Akin, Mourdock, Smith, Burg... and 5 other right wing nutbags all lost Senate races. Really? North Dakota elected a Democrat for anything? Just how bad was their guy? Must have been awful...lol

The republicans are already out there lying to Americans to make sure we hit the cash cliff. John Boehner and the rest of the Dillinger gang from Ohio are already running the most grotesque campaign against American's since George W. Bush in 2004. This is pretty much the definition of being not sane - People keep electing this guy to head the house!? Now we will get more partisan politics from an elected representative who has no clue how to run the government. The Dillinger gang has once again plunged this nation into corruption, bankruptcy, and greed.

I am hoping we fall of the cash cliff and hit the ground hard, people in this country need something to wake them up. Some big spending cuts and major tax hikes will get everyones attention.

The more I look into it I can't help but laugh at the irony in the legalization of gay marriage. They want it to be "equal" so they can enjoy the benefits of marriage like the rest of us yet I am wondering what is really the benefit of being married? My wife is a stay at home mom so she has no income. If we got divorced she would have 2 children and no income so she would qualify for Government assistance food stamps, WIC, etc. if she claimed I was gone and a "deadbeat dad". I could still live in the house and our lives would be no different other than on paper we would be divorced. We could live the same life we're living now with my income plus get all the Governement benefits which would leave us with a lot more cash for us to enjoy. I have friends that do this now though they never got married, when I ask why they don't get married she says because she would lose her benefits. I once saw a documentary on polygamist and this is the scam some of them run. Legally you can only be married to one so their other wives and children are viewed as unmarried by the Government and all recieve Government assistance. They refer to the practice as "bleeding the beast" with the beast being the US Government and tax payers. At the time I thought this was a terrible thing to do but I am starting to see it from their point of view, if you can get it why wouldn't you? So please tell me why anyone should get married?

For those of you who stated welfare has gone down under Obama you're absolutely wrong.
"America's welfare state is not a principality. It is a vast empire bigger than the entire budgets of almost every other country in the world"
9:17 am on Thursday, November 8, 2012
Thanks Frank I get your point but I could have a will made online for under $100 that would cover most of those things. The average working family doesn't have estates and trusts to worry about so unless you're wealthy they're non-issues. Insurance is the only benefit I would agree with.

Jack has some very good points. ALL politicians are out for POWER! Doesn't matter what party. The rightist, Bush, saddled us with the "Homeland Security" gestapo, for example. The leftist, Obama, simply uses it for his own purposes. It's not out on the streets, smashing the windows of halal stores, simply because there aren't enough of them to make a difference. But bodegas? One of these days...

That is someone's child. Why aren't your dinging dirt down at Charles St. at the water main. Oh that's right entitlements.
That' is why you and illiterates like Steve are destroying this nation and it's too late to save it. The cancer is our of control.
As for Steve you I'll pull out my paper work on you and see you in court for slander if you use that "draft dodger," word one more time without prof. Why don't you ask the county how I've done? One more line of slander and I'm chomping at the bit to expose you for what your are. This time it's for real no more games.

Get real, pal. Being in the military is a job that the dark, imperialist side of America pays for. It is a good living for people who have an inherited stake in it or who are for one reason or another willing to take a dangerous job with travel perks. Really talented people make a decent living doing it and anyone who can hack it can take the option of double-dipping beginning at at relatively young age.
The day of the citizen-soldier who saved the country is over, Buzzy-boy. Were you asleep somewhere when the switch-over to mercenary military happened? Were you pissed and had a twenty year black-out?
Steve, by the way is a free-thinking patriot and a fine American. If you take him to court, he may wind up owning your house. What county? I thought this was a cosmopolitan chatroom.

Your comments will drive away others and Patch's numbers will take a hit and people will go elsewhere. You see you have become the same people over and over with the mouth and people will get sick of it and stop reading it.

Call Us Today
How Does Budget Windshield Replacement Inc. Mend A Chipped or Cracked Window near Orlando, FL? Read On! It's tough to visualize how a stone chip in a windshield can be corrected until you understand how a windscreen is assembled. There are 2 main sorts of glass used in autos today. Tempered glass and laminated glass. Both are considered safety glass. Fed car safety standard ( FMVSS205 ) needs all windscreens be laminated. When something small like a pebble hits the windshield the outside layer of glass usually will break but the plastic middle layer soaks up lots of the impact and the inside layer of glass barely breaks. What you usually see is a tiny round circle or a star formed fracture about the size of a cent or a quarter. The break is essentially an air pocket between the plastic middle and the outside layer of glass. The repair process we employ involves injecting a ultra violet light curing resin into the air pockets of the fracture.
