UPDATED:MITT ROMNEY AND OBAMA SHOW HOW TO LOSE AN ELECTION IN SHOCKING DEGREES ON INCOMPETENCE

UPDATE: Since writing this article, Obama has now come forward to say he supports gay marriage. It is about time and it's good to see someone on his election team smell a wedge issue. Some are worried that it may peel away votes in Virginia or NC but this will also help younger voters connect with him way more than RoboMitt. I say it's a great move and I wish more politicans would come to his way of thinking. So when reading my complaints about Obama below, ignore them. He has redeemed himself on at least one issue. Now all he has to do is just legalize/decriminalize drugs and fix wealth inequality and I will campaign for him.


I have to give it to the GOP this week for throwing the election away in a stunning group of moves that will almost certainly be later studied as a new college course: "How to an election without really trying." Not that Obama got away scot free this week either and had the Republicans nominated a more moderate candidate (not that that was ever going to happen), that person would have a solid shot at the Presidency.

However, the most recent polls show key swing states all moving Obama's way to what appears to be another Obama/McCain blowout repeat of 2008. He may actually get states that McCain won due to the rampant stupidity of Mitt Romney's team and the GOP in general.

Let's look at what is sure to be a guaranteed wedge issue that makes certain a high youth turnout in the next election. Crying like the babies they are, the GOP killed the student aid bill that would have prevented tuition loans from doubling after July 1st. They wanted to pay for it by gutting women's health funds which the White House would veto if passed. So instead the bill died and with it go any chance of the Republicans winning. Why? The youth vote will go almost 100% to Obama and democrats in every state who will punish them for this offense.

Contrary to popular belief, youth vote has been high during the Presidential races the last decade while the Senate election fails to capture youth votes. It's why over the past few years the House keeps changing hands as youth vote skewers the odds one way or another. Giving the young a reason to show up, and a good one at that, dooms the GOP in the fall. My favorite candidate, Elizabeth Warren, is already painting Scott Brown as one who cast his vote with the GOP on this issue. Nevermind the fact that this state is FILLED with college students who are never going to vote for Brown now. Way to lose an election, douche.

Obama is not entirely without fault this week with his unbelievable blunder on not recognizing gay marriage. NC is voting on making marriage defined as a man and women, causing some to say to boycott NC (more on that later in the article). Obama has a prime example to come forward and say loud and clear "Gay People have rights." This NOT coming from our first black president is kind of ironic as once upon a time, his ancestors were once second class citizens as well.

It also shows the death of the left as any force in US politics. Let's face it, Obama is a Republican while the GOP has gone full fascist. Where, besides myself, does the left get a voice? The funny part is I'm hardly left on some issues like gun control or the death penalty or fiscal responsibility or entitlement reform just to name a few. I am to the left on things like pro-choice, gay rights, the environment and charity for the poor. It's why I vote for the best candidate, not party which I am not affiliated with either. Lately however, I'd rip out my eye teeth before I vote for a GOP candidate at this rate.

Boycotts have been all over the news lately with Rush Limbaugh's syndicator saying the loss of advertisers have cost him millions. Meanwhile, Delta has pulled all ads from the Daily Show for a slight made at Catholics that caused a ruckus in the American Taliban and pressured Delta into leaving. I am okay with Rush and furious with Delta. How can I have it both ways without being a hypocritical douchebag?

Easy. Rush Limbaugh is a hatemonger destroying the airwaves and people's minds with his nonsense. The Daily Show is comedy/satire. Boycotts should reflect the ideals of the company placing ads where they want and not outside pressure from every idiot out there offended by this or that. If Delta pulled their ads from Rachel Maddow's show because she did a show about gay rights and they felt it wasn't in their companies interests to be associated with that, I would be fine with it. It's also why I am not for a boycott on NC. Bowing to pressure from outside religious groups is another. Plus, if we start doing this kind of censorship crap we will have a terrible group of TV shows to watch that will be the most G-rated tripe seen since the fifties. As a result of this, should I start flying again, I won't be flying Delta. Screw em.

Lastly, we have word that the new Undie Bomber was a CIA asset the whole time. No one was arrested, which should have been the reason for the operation I would have thought, and word leaking out has now compromised future actions in infiltrating the Keystone Al Queda. What a giant FUBAR. The US is congratulating themselves for a job well done even though nothing was really accomplished other than a questionable bomb was intercepted before being used. What a waste of tax payer dollars. Do we have to constantly screw up government operations like Fast and Furious and now this? Aren't we broke?

Let's hope Obama takes his head out of ass recognizes gay rights, let up on arresting pot dispensaries and be the leftist President we voted for, not center right douchebag.
