Comments on: Rubio: President Obama "has no plans" for next term
Add a Comment
- Rubio just described Romney as another GW Bush.
Rubio said the president's "failure" is that he has not outlined broad goals regarding foreign policy. Specifically, Rubio pointed to the president's "moment of truth" early on in his presidency when he did not get involved and support opposition protestors who took to the streets in Iran in response to election results. "There was no organized revolution in Iran because it was demoralized," Rubio said, blaming President Obama.
Romney like Bush will not reconize the consitution and give the UN the finger and invade a country with boots on the ground over protests? - Reply to this comment

- No Plans? Already stated so perhaps Rubio doesn't listen. Mitts plans? Remove and reduce womens rights. This helps Mitt give jobs to men, puts women back in the kitchen and pregnant. Puts a raped woman in prison for an abortion of evil seed. Rapist goes free as the woman shouldn't have shown her shoulders (Mormons believe women should cover up) A tax plan for the wealthy, jobs for 12 million...soldiers as Mitt said government can't create jobs except for military and war, Mitts plans include GWBush foreign policy...pre-emptive war attack thus creating needless wars, Mitts plan on how to pay for those wars? GWBush policy borrow and put it on America's credit card. Mitts plan summed up? $$ for the Wealthy, War, and Womens rights removed. It's not that Obama is so great its that Romney is so evil that I can't vote for him. That's my plan.

- So this guy supports Romney's thrusts to fund an arms race filled with hugh budget cost over runs to fight who?
The Republicans thought Obama should have lead the coalition in Lybia and then threw him under the bus for spending money for being a part of the coalition, so what does that tell me, Romney can spend all the money he wants on the military and put the costs on the backs of the middle class. - Reply to this comment
- Really, Marco? Go back to kindergarten. What Romney has for a foreign policy is Dick Cheney retread, only worse.

- US VOTERS DESERVE BROADER- & LESS POLITICIZED- DISCOURSE RE LIBYA ISSUES!!
PART 2:
Responsible US political parties & their candidates should be loudly questioning the paucity of support by the lead participating countries in Libya's 'democracy-&-human-rights-motivated revolution' last year... & making concise commitments as to what exactly they will do if re-elected/elected in order to assist the now liberated Libya in its attempts to set up functional, human-rights-based, secular democratic governance & legal apparatus'..
1) Why haven't main stream news media & leading polling firms questioned (US) voters as to what their preferences were regarding commitments that their Presidential & Congressional candidates should make re future direct or indirect US rolls, if any, in Libya/assisting Libya becoming a more secular, democratic, human-rights-upholding country??
2) Why couldn't main stream news media & several leading polling firms question (US) voters as to what their preferences were regarding commitments that their Presidential & Congressional candidates should make re future direct or indirect US rolls, if any, in Libya/assisting Libya becoming a more secular, democratic, human-rights-upholding country??

What is being argued and alleged by the US's Presidential and congressional candidates regarding what was or was not said and what was or what was not known about the recent attacks on the US's Libya ambassadorial staff and consulate is a contemptible waste of the public's time!!
A far more productive and useful discourse could be had by those concerned commenting on the level of and quality of support- or lack of it- being provided by western nations to the now 'liberated' Libya and its fledgling governance, legal and civil society structures...
Considering the close proximity of Libya to what were the major international military players in the overthrow of former dictator Khadaffi- the United Kingdom, France and Italy- certainly there ought to be substantial criticisms of these countries- and perhaps also of the body under which they intervened militarily in Libya- NATO- as to why there has been a virtual disappearance of western countries' support for the liberated Libya since dictator Khadaffi's downfall....
... which has invited the emergence of violent radical Islamists and dangerous, destabilizing Muslim sectarianism within Libya... which has in turn lead to deplorable events such as that at the US consular facilities in Benghazi on September 11-2012...
The likelihood of terrorist attacks occurring within Libya can only be greatly reduced if the broad democratic/political and human rights objectives of Libya's laudable freedom fighters can be achieved...

- What is most needed in the US's presidential (and congressional) elections is answers to:
1) "which presidential candidate is most likely to* equitably- and responsibly- spread cuts to US govt spending if their economic plans don't work- and/or the govt deficit keeps growing/doesn't shrink fast enough??"
2) "If you are re-elected/elected, and if the economic policies that you are campaigning on are passed by the House of Representatives and Senate (& signed into law) and subsequently these economic policies end up not working and/or the govt deficit keeps growing/doesn't shrink fast enough- what policies will you advocate to raise govt revenues, IE: what, if any, types of taxes will you endorse being raised??"
3) "If you are re-elected/elected, and if the economic policies that you are campaigning on are passed by the House of Representatives and Senate (& signed into law) and subsequently these economic policies end up not working and/or the govt deficit keeps growing/doesn't shrink fast enough- what policies will you advocate to lower govt expenditures, IE: what, if any, cuts to govt services and programmes will you endorse??

* 'work towards' equitably- and responsibly- spreading cuts...
... recognizing the inherent oppositional relationship that exists between the US government's 3 branches, IE: House of Representatives, Senate & President (+ his/her cabinet) and that US Presidents don't rule by decree... - Reply to this comment
- Rubio does not have a clue about what he is talking about. The administration does have a plan as to how to handle the 2nd term but why on earth should they share it with Rubio/Romney/Ryan and company?
Ever notice that there is a standard method to these Republican interviews? They stick to the script. The mix is criticize the administration, stay in general what Romney plans to do but not in specifics, and end praising Romney. They will not answer what if Obama is already doing what they say they would do and they cannot answer how do they know that Obama is not already doing what they advocate. - Reply to this comment
