All anybody wants to talk about is "who won?"

Have you heard a single analysis that was a meaningful discussion about the merits of the issues rather than the personalities and zingers? I have not.

I don't give a shit how much water Ryan drank. I do care whether or not Biden effectively exposed the fact that Ryan and Romney are intent on dismantling Medicare are Social Security.

And I think Romney was the main liar, but if you believe Obama spoke the whole truth the whole time than I'm going to have to disagree. Romney does have a $5 trillion tax cut but even politifact pointed out that it's a ten year plan and that's only half true.

Here's were I got my facts: http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/article/2012/oct/03/fact-checking-denver-presidential-debate/

I consider them I reliable source so I listen to what they have to say. I think they're pretty unbiased as well.

There's no point in discussing something you know nothing about - in the future, of course.

Bottom line: I guarantee I'm at least as far left if not farther than you. You wanna know why I say take everything with a grain of salt, because I think to a certain extent Obama let the Republican idiots have way too much during his term. I thought we would see taxes on the rich finally go up, but that didn't happen. Everyone thinks Obamacare is some kind of left-wing idea, but NIXON tried to pass similar legislation. I'm for a single payer, hell I think we should go full blown social democracy. So call me a socialist or a communist, but do not call me communist. I think your the troll here. See right through me, yeah right. Talk about close-minded.
