most of those quotes are from websites quoting through speeches and what Obama and Biden have said than an Obama commercial or ad.

Either way, this is what the administration has resorted to in this election.

"From Obama: Romney put a dog on the roof of his car."

"From Vice President Joe Biden: “They gonna put ya’ll back in chains.”"

"The Obama campaign is calling Romney an incipient slaver, an insane person, a criminal, and a killer."

"Tax cheat, felon, murderer: meet Mitt Romney."

You'll need to post references, but BTW only 2 or 3 of those even remotely qualify as namecalling and not a single one falls in the "obummer" category.

Forget campaign ... apparently you can be part of a US administration.

do u really need sources for those? you all know that those r in fact things Obama and his administration have said. And some of those may not be name calling but still are propaganda techniques trying to gain voters by simple appeal to emotion and making everyone think Romney is evil.

Of course, you can't just lie about things and think you're not going to get called out on it.

Your concerns should lie elsewhere.

[jamest91]

I'm sorry. Would you prefer I talk like this? Did you know that Democrats try to change the topic of discussion when they know the topic at hand is true as well? When in this situation, they also seem to make the opponent look bad by a personal attack. It always seems to amaze me.

Or it could just be that my generation is the texting generation and saying u instead of you while being on a phone or internet generally isn't looked down upon. Only people who have nothing better to say about an argument are the ones who have to resort to nitpicking sentence structure to try and continue a point.

You're judged by your actions and when you write like a child people naturally assume you are one.

Any sources yet?

I would argue that the difference is much less about generational gaps (almost everyone here is in the same generation) and much more about intellectual levels. "Text-lingo" is generally looked down upon by those in academia, intellectual circles, etc. Ultimately, it is all a little shallow as long as one's message can be interpreted. However, the argument could be made that being able to follow the laws of language and text may be a sign one's ability to fit into the social norms of a more sophisticated class (much like following the more arbitrary rules of manners e.g., where to put the salad fork).

Silly Obama...

"President Obama suggested that Mr. Romney was mistaken in seeking to keep 10,000 American troops in Iraq. But the Obama administration initially sought to do just that — and ultimately never managed to negotiate an agreement to allow any American troops in Iraq.
Mr. Obama sought to negotiate a Status of Forces Agreement that would have allowed U.S. troops to stay in Iraq after 2011. Initially, the Obama administration was prepared to keep up to 10,000 troops in Iraq. Later, the Obama administration lowered the figure to about 5,000 troops —some 3,500 of which would be continuously based in the country while the remained would periodically be rotated through. The role of the American forces would be to train Iraqi troops, patrol Iraq’s skies and help Iraqi commandos fight Al Qaeda.

Prime Minister Nuri Kamal al-Maliki indicated that he might be willing to work out an agreement to allow some American troops to stay. But the Iraqis did not agree to an American demand that such an agreement be submitted to their parliament for approval, a step the Obama administration insisted was needed to ensure that any American troops that stayed would be immune from prosecution under Iraqi law.

Mr. Obama relied on Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. as well as American officials in Iraq to negotiate the agreement. The president only spoke to Mr. Maliki twice during the negotiations — at the start and at the end of the talks. Also, the Obama administration did not begin formal talks with the Iraqis until June 2, 2011, which did not leave much time for negotiation.

The Obama administration says that it was willing to keep some troops in Iraq, but the Iraqis, reflecting their concerns over sovereignty, failed to agree to the necessary immunities.

After the talks broke down, the Obama administration withdrew the remaining American in December 2011, the deadline set for withdrawing all American forces from Iraq under the Status of Forces agreement that was concluded by George W. Bush and Mr. Mailiki in 2008.

Iran has taken advantage of the absence of American forces to fly hundreds of tons of military equipment through Iraqi airspace to Syria."

Too bad those aren't valid references of what you said.
