A friend said, "I hope the Republicans win so they can deal with this mess"

[tawadi]

I responded, "They'll always blame Obama anyway."

[HERVEPA]

1. Well, your friend is not too bright.

Has your friend ever heard of the Supreme Court, Roe v. Wade, Citizens United?

[tawadi]

8. I know it

[dchill]

2. That is a misguided, twisted and sad...

kind of "hope."
IMO.

[CakeGrrl]

3. I would have responded

"Only fitting, since THEY created it. But you'll learn that the hard way when they dig us into an even deeper hole. And some of us won't get out."

People are either gullible, have very short memories, or are willfully ignorant. "Those who don't learn from history"...

[Risen Demon]

4. When I hear stuff like that, sometimes...

[Angry Dragon]

5. Time to get new friends that can think on their own

[tawadi]

10. That friend is actually pretty intelligent

But politically naïve.

[Angry Dragon]

18. then you should be able to show him the facts and turn him back to the light

otherwise he will turn to the darkside

[tawadi]

20. I'm on it

[Angry Dragon]

23. Good

[LeftinOH]

6. God forbit that they win, but if they do....

they are responsible for everything beginning from the precise moment that "vicory" is declared. After all, they blamed Obama on the recession even before the 2008 election.

[JaneQPublic]

7. Things are already getting better.

And a year or two into a Romney adminiistration, even if he does nothing, things will be much improved and he, of course, will grab all the credit for Obama's hard work.

Among a million other reasons, that is another reason Obama needs to win: so he can reap the rewards of all his hard work and go down in history as one of America's great presidents.

[tawadi]

9. People can be so short-sighted

It was quite a mess we inherited. And Obama warned it will take time.

[lunatica]

11. Yeah, sure. He'll appoint activist justices and Roe v Wade will be gone

And women will just have to carry their rapist's babies to full term or die having that illegal abortion.

[crunch60]

22. Stop saying Romney administration, it ain't gonna happen! Don't even think it, let alone say it! nt

[Amonester]

12. Oh yeah! They'll 'deal' with this mess by making it...

[font size=7 color="red"]WORSE BEYOND REPAIR[/font]

China is still their wet dream model for your friend (and us).

[Drale]

13. I always ask What mess?

They can never give a real answer.

[CJCRANE]

15. And also "when have Republicans ever made things better?"

The stockmarket, GDP and jobs increase more under Democratic administrations.

[themaguffin]

14. ...and so they can change the Supreme Court for a generation. No thanks.

...among many other reasons.

[TwilightGardener]

16. What mess, a rebounding economy?

[SomethingFishy]

17. Yeah hopefully they can get the Dow down back below 10..

like their predecessors.

It never ceases to amaze me.

[Scuba]

19. They have no intention of dealing with the mess if elected. They love the mess.

[tawadi]

21. That would've been the perfect comeback. eom
