The Vent / Metro

Please - PLEASE - stop abandoning your pets outside my rural home. It's heartbreaking to watch them run after you and cry, or sit in bewilderment to wait for your return. Would you treat family members this way?

Gore says Denver's air made Obama look so bumbling. LOL! Only if he's breathing Gore's hot air!

If there is anything I trust or respect less than Congress, its the clowns in our State Legislature. The feds may be inept, but those state knuckleheads make Moe, Larry and Curley look like Team Mensa.

We are now finding out about the Emperor's clothes. He has none of his own, only that regal robe bestowed upon him by an adoring media. And now they are questioning their gift to him. Fig leaf anyone?

Is there a Government agency that is working on stopping the drug cartels from coming into our inner cities? You would think the communities would be up in arms about the destruction they are causing. Doesn't anyone care?

Vote for Romney so that next year Michelle and Barack will have a more enjoyable anniversary.

Maybe "un-biased" opinions are at the bottom of the vent because those "un-biased" opinions are actually very leftist and thus, no one agrees with them. They've been voted to the bottom of the vent, not because of the Vent Guy.

A great smile, abundant charisma and a gift for oratory can be a very dangerous thing.

I miss the days when I was a young girl and I was allowed to wear a presidential campaign button to school...was just informed by an employer to refrain from political discussions in the work place...I will be respectful, but just for the record, I am not shameful.

Why not close the Georgia State Archives? When a few outspoken critics can get away with changing the meaning of the Stars and Bars flag from that of the Confederacy to a symbol of slavery, our history means nothing!

When your struggle to put food on your table becomes impossible, who do you turn to? Relatives? Churches? Neighbors? Get real. You can rely on welfare to help until you are back on track.

I don't know who watched the debate but did anyone notice Romney never gave a plan to fix or change anything!

Score: -292

Obama's economic policies are failed, but on social issues he and I agree very closely. Romney might be able to salvage the economy, but will very likely be a pawn to the Religious Right and will set social progress backward. I am not fond of either. This is sad.

Score: -300

Romney unquestionably won the style and dominance parts of the debate, but his statements were still full of whoppers and contradictions.
