    We know he was the Editor of the Harvard Law Review without ever publishing a single paper in that or any other law review. How the does that happen? His life is full of black holes we're supposed to just accept and move on?
    Students don't publish articles in law reviews -- they publish notes. And you don't have to publish a note if you don't want to as working on law review is a large enough time investment.

    Justice Scalia was a notes editor for the HLR. I can't find his student-note. How the does that happen? How can we have a justice on SCOTUS without ever publishing a single paper in HLR or any other law review?

    Would you consider John McCain's experience as a POW irrelevant to his position on military operations?
    Pretty much. Certainly his experience would factor in to how he develops his position, but at the end of the day it's his actual position that I'm interested in, not his experience.

    This example of course only makes sense because you're specifically interested in relevant experience directly related to the topic. McCain's position on releasing his college transcripts would be completely irrelevant to a position on military operations.

    I think Yoni comes from the T.S. Eliot school of thought.

    Really? At least we had the knowledge of John McCain's imprisonment by which to view his perspective on torture.

    Through what experiences has Obama informed his view on the economy? Why does he say things like "You didn't build that," and "spread the wealth?" What, in his background, made him the most liberal voting Senator in the U. S. Senate?

    We know his was a community organizer in Chicago but what, exactly, did he organize? What were the outcomes? We know he was the Editor of the Harvard Law Review without ever publishing a single paper in that or any other law review. How the does that happen? His life is full of black holes we're supposed to just accept and move on?

    Frankly, I'm stunned by blindness, in the forum, over the incurious media that practically stormed Wasilla, Alaska to pick through every minute scrap of Sarah Palin's life and, yet, completely ignored Obama's Chicago shenanigans -- from the Rezko house deal to his relationship with domestic terrorist Bill Ayers.
    Since Obama has been president for some time now, we've seen the exact result of all these influences.

    The result? Actually not much different from Bush tbqh. We certainly didn't see the anarcho-marxist-fascist-atheist caliphate you implied (hoped, really) would take shape once antichrist Obama took office.

    No.
    Show us your tax returns.
    No.
    Show us your tax returns.
    No.
    Show us your tax returns.
    No.
    Show us your tax returns.
    No.
    Show us your tax returns.
    No.
    Show us your tax returns.
    No.
    Show us your tax returns.
    No.
    Show us your tax returns.
    OK, here they are.


    Scenario B:
    Show us your tax returns.
    OK.
    Show us more tax returns.
    OK.
    Show us a detailed list of all your investment transactions.
    OK.
    Show us a catalog of all your assets.
    OK.
    Show us your receipt from your last trip to Target.
    OK.
    Show us the design specs for your magic underwear.
    Uh, what???
    He has something to hide!!!!!!

    Well sister if he he implements Ryan's budget then those making 30000 or less will have their taxes raised while everyone else gets a tax cut...so let the man show us what he pays before raising the taxes of those who can least afford it. God would support taxing the poorest whole leaving the wealthiset with tax breaks....

    ^ The problem is we still don't know what version of the Ryan "plan" is in play or even if it's one of the multiple versions or Mitt's own "plan"... doubt we'll find out. Details are expensive, they cost votes.

    There is no plan in play. Just the willingness to think out of the box and have an adult conversation about the fiscal irresponsibility of our current path.

    Maureen Dowd is thinking to herself that it's OK to fantasize as long as she tells herself it would be a hate .

    There's nothing new or "out of the box" in that plan. The conversation has merely turned into the different degrees of irresponsibility. There's nothing adult about that. Neither party is interested in digging their own political grave.

    Oh please. The plan directly addressed changes in social security and medicare which have traditionally been the "third rail" of politics.

    How so?

    We constantly hear Slow Joe Biden invoke his father and his family, particularly his father, as the paragons of the values that inform his character.

    Why is Obama's history any less relevant than any other politician's?
    Nobody gives a about Willard's history, the tax returns are simply relevant to debates about the economy and the tax code tbh......

    I'll pay attention to this debate when someone can explain to me how it's relevant to being a president. If dude was cheating, especially when you consider what a rich asshole Romney is, then the IRS would be all over it

    This is a media driven issue...don't be suckers

    The "adult conversation" we need to be having is how the heck did we end up with these two ups running for POTUS.

    your stupid is showing.

    We have a previous Ryan plan that was being discussed. Democrats hated it.

    We do not yet have a specifically defined Romney plan.

    Ryan isn't running for POTUS.

    2012: "How the heck did we end up with these two ups running for POTUS?"
    2008: "How the heck did we end up with these two ups running for POTUS?"
    2004: "How the heck did we end up with these two ups running for POTUS?"
    2000: "How the heck did we end up with these two ups running for POTUS?"

    Did it ever start to occur to you that people get the government they deserve?

    therefore there is no plan, unless you count wispy, detail free descriptions of post election intentions
