    Again. Eating a dog when you are 7 and living in a culture where it is normal to eat dog is nothing noteworthy. Its like an Indian looking down at you just because you ate a cow. It does nothing more than highlight the right's intolerance towards others with different views or belieefs from themselves.

    Aren't women in general underrepresented in politics as well as in other fields? The sort of AA needed to equal their ratio would be quoto ratios or something similar all of which has been deemed illegal by the courts. If you were to say that women working in the White House in the same position as men are earning less than their male counterparts, then you would have a point.

    precisely. nothing but manufactured faux outrage...

    and your point about women in the white house is one I have repeatedly shoved down his throat on another thread. If he COULD say that, he would have a point...but, of course... he can't... so he abandons THAT thread and now talks about Obama as a little child eating dog meat while living in a culture that routinely ate dog meat. pathetic.

    I am curious...before Citizens United, who did Obama raise all that money FROM? Who did McCain raise all HIS money from, for that matter?

    Yes I saw that thread. Ignorance and blind oblivion to facts is the conservatives' best argument isn't it. I have seen many cons here repeatedly deny the facts, make their own scenarios and call them facts because "I said so".

    Actually it illustrates it.

    Won't even be a factor.

    What are you disputing? If you aren't denying them then I am not going to waste my time on people who do not follow the news.

    Is far more harmful to the dog than putting him in his crate, which he loved to travel in. We crate our dog when we leave him at home, whenever he sees we are getting ready to leave he goes and noses the door open and gets in waiting for us to come a close it.

    the fact that democrats point out that Romney the grown man, caged a dog on the roof of his car for hours on end while he drove down the highway and then, don't get upset because Obama, the boy, ate food that was customary in the country where he was living illustrates our HYPOCRISY? :lol:

    I would suggest it illustrates how desperate you are!



    opinion masquerading as fact... a common ploy with you.

    Yes as lots of people do when the go on vacation and take the dog with them, like my dog theirs loved to go with them and like most dogs had no problem being in is travel cage.

    So it's not OK to take your dog with you on vacation but OK to eat them................gotcha.
    Pointing out the fallacies of the attacks on Romney with the hypocrisy of the Democrats, that is daily routine.
    No I clearly make the distinctions, but at least mine do have facts as opposed to your conjecture and assertions which are so easily shot down.

    I notice you can't refute a thing I said.

    Can't do your own research? We know where McCain raised his, Obama is refusing to disclose it.

    Obama’s Funny Money
    In 2008, the president’s campaign-finance operation was highly suspect.

    ".......Politico reports that the Obama campaign failed to respond to FEC inquires about whether its failure to report the donations was due to problems with its data-processing systems. Indeed, Team Obama has often been reticent in response to questions about its donor-identification procedures. In 2008, John McCain’s campaign publicly disclosed the identities of its entire donor base, including those contributing under $200, whose names are not legally required to be disclosed. But it was different over in Obamaworld. “We asked both campaigns for more information on small donors,” Massie Ritsch, a spokesman for the liberal Center for Responsive Politics, told Newsmax. “The Obama campaign never responded.”

    Because of its large number of small donations, the Obama campaign wound up not disclosing the donor names for about half of the $800 million it raised in 2008. Indeed, the Washington Post reported that it went so far as to turn off the Address Verification System (a credit-card verification protocol) on its website. That program would have prevented the campaign from accepting contributions by citizens of foreign countries — accepting such donations is a violation of federal law. The decision to abandon filters had consequences — an FEC inquiry forced the campaign to refund $31,110 to two Palestinian brothers in the Gaza Strip who had bought T-shirts from the campaign’s online store in small quantities. The Obama campaign said it had been unaware of any problems and always corrected errors when they were brought to its attention."

    1. that anyone in their right mind thinks it is perfectly OK to put a dog in a cage on top of the roof of a car and drive down the highway for hours on end.

    2. that anyone other than desperate republicans think that democrats are being hypocritical for thinking that, while a dog caged on top of a moving car for hours is bad, while the people of indonesia are barbaric for their cultural diet

    3. that any woman in the Obama White House made less money than a man for an equal position.

    If they follow that logic, it would make all Americans barbarians for eating cows since in India the cow is a sacred animal and therefore much more deserving of respect than a dog is. But again, logis is lost on most conservatives.

    It is perfectly OK and it wasn't for hours on end, he had the five kids in the car and a wife on a vacation trip. Dogs get crated and put in cargo holds on airplanes. Mine spends the day in his at home while we are at work. Your hyperbole and fallacious declarations are really silly.

    The fact remains it is much nicer to a dog to take them on vacation and let them ride in their crate like they love to do than to eat them. The Democrat who tried to make an issue out of it got egg on his face and you can't even admit it can you.

    Here educate yourself

    http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2012/04/dog-seamus-loved-trips-atop-family-car-says-ann-romney/

    Around here they ride in the back of pickup trucks.

    Statement by the President on Equal Pay

    In America today, women make up half of the workforce, and two-thirds of American families with children rely on a woman’s wages as a significant portion of their families’ income.

    Yet, even in 2010, women make only 77 cents for every dollar that men earn. The gap is even more significant for working women of color, and it affects women across all education levels. "

    And that gap in his own office? The lack of equal opportunity for women to reach the highest levels as men.

    Again... anyone who thinks that dogs "love" to ride in a cage on the top of a car flying down the highway is being ridiculous.


    they had every opportunity to do just that.

    Anyone who doesn't is clueless especially when they are asserting that is worse than eating them.


    Disparate outcome, he decries the disparity when it exist in his own WH.

    to an American, caging a dog on the top of a car going down the highway is worse than eating one of their culturally acceptable protein sources is to an Indonesian.

    AA doesn't require equal outcomes, only that the employer takes affirmative action to offer equal opportunity.

    To most of the world and transporting animals in cages is also done in Indonesia. So when the Democrats try to attack Romney over taking the dog on vacation in the travel carrier he loved to travel in the Republicans will gladly point out how the dog faired much better than being eaten for dinner as Obama like to do.

    Disparate outcome. As in Obama's White House.

    We'll have to agree to disagree. I know that I went on a journey from Maine to Mexico and what I put on the roof was everything that I could possibly fit up there so that my two dogs and a cat could ride inside the car with us, which they absolutely enjoyed. I would never have DREAMED of sticking my dog in a cage on the roof of the car.

    Nothing, because I don't know what you're talking about. Let me see the facts you have.

    C'mon OP, you can insult me better then that.
