Cory Booker is Oprah's lapdog.

Newark Sucks!
And Booker is parading around the country...Oprah...get back to Newark and do your job!

Tom Don't you get tired of being right.

Huge debt lack of jobs: Booker is a really nice guy but he is suporting policies that just don't work. He needs to go back to Newark control local taxes, fix the schools, make sure the cops keep the place safe, and make sure sanitation department cleans the streets and so on. He should work hard and in a lower more local profile making things work for Newark.

Booker caved ..bottom line.

Booker: “being asked to pay your fair share isn’t class warfare. It’s patriotism,”
I would like to pay my fair share but I'm still waiting for somebody to tell me how much it is, how they get to that number and why that number is fair.

Newark is a blight on NJ. If he cant sort out EWR he should stay home or reseign

How many times have we seen "Freedom isn't free" sayings, conveniently the macho always omit "...except at tax time, then it's totally free!" Thank you Cory for wirking hard and fighting for America! Oh and "support the troops" isn't just done by buying a bumper sticker!

Here is an example of who pays their fair share (from a Walter Williams editorial):
"According to IRS 2007 data, the richest 1 percent of Americans earned 22 percent of national personal income but paid 40 percent of all personal income taxes. The top 5 percent earned 37 percent and paid 61 percent of personal income tax. The top 10 percent earned 48 percent and paid 71 percent of all personal income taxes. The bottom 50 percent earned 12 percent of personal income but paid just 3 percent of income tax revenues"
So who pays their fair share? Do you?

This must be the Republican room! Get! A! Life! You will never stop The Democrats rising star politics of the 21older Century! Republics have no one! Your days of ROBBING AMERICAN'S are over!!!!! Mayor Booker...... Great speech and may GOD bless President Obama! 4 more years!!!!

Or rising star politicians!

21 st Century!

Typing too fast....

Used to like Cory, but when he dissed the Nj Devils, he sealed his fate....

I just want a American President who doesn't bow, apologies, or tries to destroy the constitution. I want a President who truly loves this country, and stands up for its principles. This country was not based on Karl Marx 's ideology.

I have been working since I was 10 years old, never collected a dime from the government. When hurricane Irene hit my business last year I lost 89K in inventory and the Fed's didn't.t give me a penny, because I wasn't in distress, because I kept paying my bills. Yet there people collecting everything.

A hard woking American.

this guys is horrible Newark is still a slum..... Worry about your own town and fix that before opening his mouth. The only reason he is even around is because women incorrectly think he is good looking.....

The NJ Devils suck.

Can't wait till next month, as rumor is all Patch comments will require full legal names of every entry. It'll be so nice to give credit to those intellectuals way smarter than me. My namesake Uncle was killed in WW2 by a sniper, so excuse my distaste for them, and bless those who are unafraid to proudly identify themselves. To validate my entry here, I like Booker, and wish he would often talk unabashed.

Mr Kupchik,

I am not afraid, I do not hide, nor am I an intellectual most of the Caldwells know who I am. I didn't know the rumor, but if so I will put my name out, but as a father of two I am only protecting my family. It is sad that in out society this has to be done. If you would like to meet I would be proud to shake your hand. My father serve in the United States Army for 46 years, 12/14/41 - 06/30/87

I think Booker will be the next NJ Gov.

Sorry, Mr Booker, I am not drinking your Koolaid. This country is a mess because of this administration and the socialist agendas that it has promulgated. The regulations imposed by this President are suffocating our country and destroying small businesses. Public-private partnerships is the game now. This administration is picking winners and losers and putting hard earned taxpayer money behind companies like Solindra to payoff crony favors and campaign donations. It is criminal. It also shows that this administration knowingly is trying to bankrupt our nation, destroy our currency and usher in a United Nations socialist agenda ONE WORLD
ORDER which is designed to destroy the middle class in the United States and reduce the populace of our nation. This President abhors our country and is doing everything against capitalism and a free society. This puppet or puppet master is laying the US bare of security, purposely lowering our beard of living and abrogating our rights. Private Property is slowly being abolished as our our choices of single family homes, and our behavior is attempting to be controlled by regulations, and unconstitutional executive orders. Wake Up America! VOTE in NOVEMBER And change they course of our nation. RESTORE OUR REPUBLIC! UPHOLD OUR CONSTITUTION and OUR RULE OF LAW!

AGENDA 21 is destroying Property RIghts. Sustainable New Jersey Socialist Agenda is squeezing residents into urban hubs and into small cagelike stack and pack housing, besides railroad tracks .....where everthing people once freely DID at one time will now be completely CONTROLLED! Look behind THE SMILE.....the FUTURE is not Pretty! Face the facts now- time is running out-before it is too late. VOTE ROMNEY RYAN for FREEDOM!

Must be sad for all you Obama haters to watch Mitt's campaign go down in flames. This is turning into a potential rout:

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/2012_elections_electoral_college_map.html

Every election ends up with almost half the country voting for one candidate and half voting for the other. Our split congress reveals this as well. So, fundamentally, we are at a stalemate regardless of who 'wins' the election. Nothing significant will get done but we can keep complaining to feel good

XJS, I know how you feel, Romney wasn't my first choice either, but by sitting it out you only give another vote to the disaster we already have and his failed policies and no budgets and his support to ismalic countries like iran and all the muslim pigs who knocked down the towers in NYC. If we let him continue this country will become a third world country. He is slowly bringing our country, the once most powerful country to our knees so that we are dependent on the Government for our living, are we becoming another Russia, where we all work for the Gov. and then they give us what they feel like we should have.

Mitt Romney may not be the greatest, but even HE is better than this walking disaster we have now, you have to admit that. I mean a two year old kid could do better than this jerk traitor muslim pig. Thats not being a racist, I just don't like incompetent people and traitors to our country.

Obviously if you have that attitude you will never make an impact. You know or should know that this administration aims to degrade and enslave not only the INDIVIDUAL and our country. Have you ever heard speak about the COLLECTIVE?
Everyone on the same low plain...everyone kept suppressed..not raising people up, depriving them of property and rights and enslaving them.....yes it starts with a big C.
This election is the defining point at which we can attempt to save our REPUBLIC or
Fall into the abyss that has been long planned for our great country by a bunch of elite wealthy MISFITS! Money is being spent without refrain in hopes to bankrupt our nation, our property, monuments, and resources are being sold to foreign investors.
These evil people are using our tax dollars to rob us of our country. They do it with a smile, and a smirk on their faces... And you say you cannot be bothered to vote...that there are no differences? I say that you are either a mole, or just totally unaware of the dire situation we are in. Not voting is a vote for this administration and an end to the United States as we have known it. My Lord have you not heard that congress is completely ignored and that our country is being run by a shadow government implementing everything detrimental to our country? WE MUST stand up against these people who want to destroy us by voting for ROMNEY-RYAN ...this is our only chance.

To not vote is unpatriotic and makes you part of the problem. A non vote also is a vote for a dictator that is destroying the middle class in America. The big O has made over 900 executive orders in almost 4 years and most of them are against the best interest of America. Not voting is also a vote against yourself having those freedoms
as described in our Constitution.

No, Nancy Dugan I do not. Although I do not agree with Romney on some things he is a true American and does not seek the demise of our nation as we know it and it's people. He has given 30% to charity for many years in contrast to Obama who believes in redistribution of other peoples wealth but not his own. It was Obama who only gave between 1-5% to charity prior to his bid for office.
The elite misfit I mentioned are those who are behind the curtain of the United Nations Agenda 21 and A NEW WORLD ORDER.....try doing research on the Bilderbergers and Club of Rome...the Illuminati.....and the Federal Reserve. Once you realize what is in store for us you will be running to cast your vote....and every vote is needed to fight against these evil Globilist Misfits.

I don't think things will be this bad with Romney/Ryan. I don't believe he can destroy this country like this jerk has already done.

It doesn't sound like you are a true american Dr. D. I know I am and always will be, and I'm a God fearing american and always will be, maybe you aren't?

I'm a bit interpolating here based on you previous and current comments, but sounds like your definition of the true american is (not my words, but i could not phrase it better)

Ideological purity
Unmoved by facts
A belief in Biblical literalism
A fear of progress
A need to control women’s bodies
A pathological hatred of the US government

I think you should understand first what it means to be an American, and then you can judge other people on the topic of being true American

Dr. Doom......what a precious name.
You are DOOMED!
You sound like you are defining YOURSELF!
You are definitely uninformed and brainwashed. You probably listen to NPR.

No I'm not tee party activist, thanks for asking. Glad you liked the name.
Picking up my information from more then one source.
Patriot - planning to add anything informative to the thread?

The 7.8% Unemployment Numbers recently reported are quite deceptive. The Top 25 economists state that the true Unemployment numbers are more like 14% minimum. Mostly part time jobs were used in the calculation. Also people that could not find jobs anywhere and left the workforce were not counted in the cakculation. Many people that had their Extended unemployment payments run out were then allowed by the Obama adminstration to receive Disability insurance payments and they were not in the calculation either. It is also interesting to note that Employers are now hiring only part timers so they do not have to pay for Obamacare. So the number of new jobs numbers is also suspect because 2 people are now hired for 1 prior person employed (each work perhaps 20 hours per week). Any employee who works 50 hours must be covered by Obamacare and the employers would be bankrupt very quickly so they found a way around it. And of couse those really wonderful Green Jobs that Obama counts.....ones like mopping the floor, sweeping the floor, digging a hole, putting in a cement sidewalk leading to nowhere beside a highway are in the Jobs filled numbers.
The recent campaign donations to Obama are being investigated because they were made over the Internet from Foreign/illegal sources that did not provide complete zip code information.

“Republicans can do it,” said http://www.coachoutletmls.com Jennifer Duffy, a Senate political analyst at the nonpartisan Cook Political Report. “It’s just getting a http://www.hermesbeltsoutletns.net lot harder.”
Rob Jesmer, the executive director of the National http://www.coachfactoryoutletion.com Republican Senatorial Committee, said Thursday that Republican candidates were within http://www.coachfactoryonlinemb.com reach of victory in 10 to 12 competitive races, with Mr. Romney’s improvement in the polls http://www.coachoutletonlineef.org lifting candidates in states that were out of play six weeks ago.But time is dwindling.
