Let's take a brief look at some of what he's "inherited": a war he said he'd be pulling us out of within a year, those gas prices that were declining at $3, that terrible unemployment rate somewhere below 10%, "welfare" that lasted for less than 7 years, a somewhat affordable private health care industry, job growth, states that weren't bankrupt, a system that didn't spend $300k to "save" each $25k job, and, of course, 2/3 the existing national debt...

lol

"“I said that I would remove our combat troops from Iraq in 16 months, with the understanding that it might be necessary — likely to be necessary — to maintain a residual force to provide potential training, logistical support, to protect our civilians in Iraq,” Mr. Obama said this week as he introduced his national security team.
"

So your very first point is factually incorrect. Should we trust your numbers as well?

Reality sucks bro...cuz its like so...accurate.

The point isnt that Obama doesnt "break" (stupid concept) promises, but that you disparage the man for things that arent accurate or make sense.

Gas prices? REALLY?

Not in real life, these views are shared by all of my co-workers. An internet forum is one thing, but in the real world We vote. My rantings here are only echoed in the office every single day and we are mobilizing the vote, just like this dictator asked for. He wants the worker revolt/worker paradise - careful what he asked for because he has awakened the tax paying worker/American.

But I appreciate the calls of racism, keep it up. Only pisses people/independants off more.

If I had 10 dollars for everytime his name was mentioned and somebody said under their breath "that fucker"; happens every single day, I wouldn't be working any more. Straight up truth. I have no reason to lie.

I'm sure you and all your co-workers would be happy going back to losing 800K jobs/month, starting wars under false pretenses costing over $1T and costing the lives of almost 5000 troops.

But then you have logic on your side. It took 8 years to fuck up this country. I understand why you are so upset Obama hasen't fixed it in 2.5 yrs.

It's a starting point. See you in november 2012.

Its not a starting point, its a dead end. There is nothing to discuss because you are not attempting to actually discuss anything. You can only conclude after presenting an argument, or present a theory followed by the facts that led you there.

Facts, who needs 'em!

We were told Bobo, The Post Turtle, was the smartest man to ever run for the office. Surely someone as smart as him would be able to avoid making the economy worse, avoid starting even MORE wars.. etc. In 2.5 years he couldn't even manage to close Gitmo and we're to believe he needs more time to fix the economy? If he can't close Gitmo in 2.5 years it will probably take him about 4000 years to fix the economy. Maybe by shovel ready jobs Obama was talking about all the bullshit he was heaping upon the American people?

So how many jobs/month are we losing now??

What's the unemployment rate now? How many have just quit looking for work and are not even counted in that unemployment figure?

Bush(43) made some monumental mistakes, the biggest was to tell this nation and then govern this nation on the false promise of "guns and Butter". It did not work for LBJ and it didn't work for Bush(43).

Our current Fool, Bobo, the Post Turtle, has just made the problem even worse.

Using your logic someone slices a persons carotid artery, paramedic comes by stops the bleeding but the victum is still in critical condition. You come by and bitch about the amount of blood on the floor.

Fact here would tend to disprove your theory Obama is responsible for high unemployment rate

<P>I guess I should have been more specific and said 16 months instead of a year; I didn't think anyone would be enough of a dumbass to try to defend anything said or done by Obama.&nbsp; From this 2010 article, he didn't even have combat operations stopped by then.&nbsp; I guess the 50,000 "non-combat" troops stationed in Iraq "to train Iraqi security forces, conduct counterterrorism operations and provide civilians with ongoing security"&nbsp;(read:&nbsp; combat troops) can do a hell of a lot of "logistical support," though.&nbsp; Of course,&nbsp;you also ignore that what he's done is taken 100k troops from Iraq (based on the peak troop amount of around 150k during the official war period), then just threw 70k troops to Afghanistan:&nbsp; <A href="http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-06-22/obama-said-to-order-30-000-soldiers-out-of-afghanistan-by-summer-of-2012.html">http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-06-22/obama-said-to-order-30-000-soldiers-out-of-afghanistan-by-summer-of-2012.html</A></P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>So, not only did he fail to deliver on his "promise," (read: lie)&nbsp;but failed to even deliver on the spirit of it because all he really did was just shift troops.&nbsp; Effectively, he's only&nbsp;taken 30k troops out of danger.</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>I guess you're right bro-dawg-gee-homeskilletboy; reality does suck, doesn't it?</P>

Edit: Don't know why the forum mangled my post, but I'm not wasting my time unmangling it to argue with a moron.
