In Round 3 of the debate drinking game the rules are as follows
We all wrote things down and put them in a box, we all pick two words to drink to and slight change we all drink twice if Kenya or the Mormon religion is mentioned
The players are for JO, K, A and I


JO has Middle Class and 47%
K has Loopholes and Libya
A has China and Obamacare
I have with all due respect and Small business

From what I read, the pure foreign policy debate is the next one. The town hall meeting is for both domestic and foreign policy.

And... they're off.
They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong

But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red

At least Obama made a better attempt at answering than "I know how to create jobs."

I have to say the moderator is good at asking questions, but the candidates aren't listening. Neither of them are answering the fucking questions!

Nice, a question about specific deductions. Watch Rmoney dodge and weave.

How many middle class people actually make money from dividends and capital gains?

Most, if not all, it's just not a primary source of income.

I know I make money from dividends and capital gains as a result of my investments in my 401k and mutual funds. But they're actually fairly small returns compared to my overall income. Taxes on them wouldn't bother me as much as the main income tax I pay.

Ok well I like how Obama is more aggressive than before, but I don't like how they continue to avoid answering the actual questions. Ugh...
