Worst foreign affairs president in history. Libya, Egypt, Iraq, Syria, Iran. He ****ed up on all of them. Economy sucks. Lowest labor force participation rate in recorded history. His main legislation (Obamacare) failed instantly. It also failed exactly how the detractors said it would. Not sure what a person can hang their hat on politically. As a person, I think hes an obnoxious, immature narcissist.
Funny. Many that I know thinks is soft tone and apologetic tone when dealing with race is the problem. Obama barely even mentions race and he d*** sure has not stood up for the rights of black people. The 'Beer Summit" was basically him telling the world he would not stand up for black people facing oppression and stereotyping and police brutality. Cops and people have taken full advantage of his soft tone to be more brutal and more blatant in their racist attitudes. His DOJ ain't dont sh** in any of the cases that it took on. Black People still cannot get a hint of justice in most cases and Cops have a record of wins like 999,999 out of 1,000,000. They basically rarely loose no matter what they do. Its is just funny that when it comes to race relations White folx thinks he has done too much Alot black folx think he has not done one single solitary d*mn thing worth mentioning. But hate him? nah . . .. he is a great president for America. .. for Black America. . .not so much. Rocket River
Well he can take credit for getting the deficit down to 438 billion a year after raising it from 458 billion a year to 1.4 trillion a year and keeping it up over 1 trillion a year for four consecutive years. I mean, in reality the 1 trillion dollar deficits didn't stop till a Republican congress took over control of both the house and senate so that they could force fiscal responsibility on the president.....but it wouldn't be the first time he took credit for what others did.
I have been informed via "rep" that bipartisanship b/t the President and Congress will never work because: Legislative branch is about nothing but getting PAID I guess we're all ****ed.
Man, what happened to you? Did you fall and hit your head? Your transformation has been sad to witness.
That's a talking point. The entire reason we had cuts at all is not due to Obama signing a reduced budget budget. SEQUESTRATION is the main reason we have a shrinking debt. Sequestration happened because the President and Congress couldn't come together to make a deal on a budget so they together let the random cuts REQUIRED by the Budget Control Act of 2011 (signed by Obama) occur. This directed automatic across-the-board cuts split evenly between defense and domestic spending (which began in January 2013). This is your families share of the National Debt broken down by President (Inflation adjusted). Note: This only takes into account Obama's 1st term. I'm guessing its close to double this amount by now.
As a person, I like him. He'd probably be an awesome guy to grab a beer with and watch a game. He's a terrible president though.
This is a really stupid graph. Debt fetishist don't understand what debt means. Debt is always increasing, and you knwo what? It doesn't ****ing matter. It is not the same as your credit card.
Yep I hate the dignity, compassion, gravitas, eloquence, consideration, restraint and strong family relationships he brought to his scandal free administration. turrible, so boring.
Yeah, no bait taken here. I'll leave you guys to your days of arguing the same thing over and over and over again. Must be really fulfilling trying to change each others mind
Black Wisconsin sheriff totally humiliates CNN anchor regarding BLM's hate speech and Obama's role in fanning the flames of racial hate in America. http://www.cnn.com/2016/07/18/us/wisconsin-sheriff-david-clarke-i-predicted-this/index.html
This is the result of the racists who came out of the woodwork when a black man was elected along with politicians courting the votes of those racists refusing to work with Obama on anything as their primary goal was to make him a one-term president. In such an environment, it is impossible to "bring people together" because the ones who aren't "together" in the first place refuse to be brought there. It is the fault of those doing the refusing, not the one bending over backwards to try and bring them together, as Obama did time and time again.
You realize that the deficit was $1.5 trillion in the last year of Bush's term, right? Obama did not "massively increase" the deficit. The 2009 deficit was the last of Bush's term...
