Lol@you. Progress, like acceleration, can be both negative and positive, and this is so far negative that it's become an anomaly on so many different levels. I'm sure you can imagine what would be on those lists, however, that is just the thing, 'imagination.' May God help you and your terrible ad hominem attacks.

Ike did play a lot of golf, although I think the figure you provided is off. He was also a peace-time president with a robust economy. Also, since he was a Republican president with a liberal MSM writing history, I tend to be a little skeptical about their estimates. Has anyone mentioned that Obama is the first president to send troops to war without approval from congress? Libya.

Obviously the GOP was never motivated by concern of overspending or other claims, It was born of a deeply embedded loathing for people of color and, as you say, to prevent an Obama re-election, as well as to oust him from office. The birth certificate was one issue, then Obama-Care, as they call it, and it’s pretty much been one issue after another, which has nothing at all to do with advancing the country toward anything.

One thing for sure, the Party has an abundance of energy and seeing them is so akin to watching black and white footage from the 60s. The only difference is that African Americans are/were affiliated with the organization. It’s all too convenient how they came onto the scene, when their alleged primary concerns were initiated and had been in motion for years, prior to anyone really knowing who Barack Obama was. This is classic racism at its best.

Dispensing disinformation, promoting bigotry and racism, and playing upon the fears and ignorance of many Americans – supplemented by a much more than healthy dose of self-promotion GOP can't win on the issues, so they resort to hate, bigotry and fear.


No formula for leadership: It not only shows how bereft of ideas the GOP's members truly are, their racist rhetoric shows the despicable nature of their character.

Screw you, How many other presidents have done the same things whall in office? Bush and the patriot act, Lincoln suspending habeous corpus, and do you really think that no president has ever encouraged racial discrimination at the ballot box before? that's absurd. That's just your knee jerk crypto fascist response to anyone who doesn't call for his arrest for treason. Did I vote for him in 2008, no. Was I profoundly dissapointed in the vast majority of policies enacted by him and his administration, yes. Would I vote for him again in 2012, not a sliver of a chance. Don't cop out and assume anyone who doesn't belive your ridiculous lie that he's the worst president ever, rhetoric loves Obama. He has a long way to go before he ranks up there with Buchanan, Harding, Andrew Johnson, Grant, Hoover and a bunch of other guys who made a mess of the job. Have some perspective. yours is obviously clouded by listening to the right wing water carriers who permeate the media. Speaking of the right wing, it speaks volumes about the GOP that they couldn't come up with a better group of people to challenge a President who's first term has been such a "fustercluck"

and of course dubbya the shrub had a first also;

• First President to take MORE VACATION days than any other President, even though he promised to not rest until he smoked out bin laden


obama may not be a great president but dubbya the shrub WAS the worst president ever

and if you think mccain / palin would have do better than obama that is totally laughable

actually the problem the GOP is having finding a candidate to challenge obama tells me obama is very likely to be re-elected

Really, liberaldimwitmann?

That's not what Syracuse University's TRAC System -- hardly a bastion of right-wing thinking says:

"According to TRAC, Syracuse’s Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency (ICE) has overstated the number of immigration law violators apprehended by a 5:1 ratio. And that’s the good news. Deportations were overstated by 24:1 and detentions by 34:1.

TRAC says that ICE has represented, not only in press releases but in congressional testimony, that in 2005 it apprehended 102,034. The records it produced, however, show only 21,339. It further claimed 166,075 deportations but documented only 6,906; and said it had detained 233,417 when the paperwork shows only 6,778.

TRAC notes that the Obama administration delayed complying with its FOIA request for nearly two years (it was submitted in May 2010). TRAC argues that ICE has either geometrically inflated its performance or grossly violated FOIA in withholding information.
"

Now, read some history, some philosophy, some economics and law, and stop being an uneducated drone.

It's odd that there are poor people of all nationality. who are suffering but there are few of you who choose to for every reason no matter what this president does you critize him. America is so much better for him being the president of this great Country. This country is greater, showing that we all can over come our hateful past. Obama 2012. Remember those who critiize will not rest until this country falls

Conniption Fitz said...

Obama's re-election plan is a typical Chicago style deal - the way he and his thugs stole the nomination from Hillary.

Obama election tactics:
- Prevent Voter Photo IDs - dead folks get to vote
- No National Voter Registry allows multiple residency voters vote twice
- Hurried amnesty (and voting registration) for illegal aliens.
- OWS/Arab Spring/Union type civil unrest (aka mob violence) Jimmy Hoffa Jr. promised violence at Obama fundraiser last Fall.
- Voter Intimidation, Coercion by Unions, other groups
- Media manipulation through programming, words, attitudes of journalists, comedians, etc. (shaping opinion of electorate)
- Polls - polls and primaries control money and advertising budgets of candidates
- Aggressive voter registration in Democratic areas (legal, but still a win strategy) especially when combined with the next tactic
- Paid votes, community team organizers, busses
- Prisoners - votes for incarcerated felons
- Vote count fraud - from hacking machines to trunks full of fraudulent votes (this happened last time around)
- Americans Elect, a third party candidate would split republican vote and GUARANTEE a win for Obama. This organization is already very well funded by unknown donors and has registered in all 50 states.

He's too big to fail (or so he thinks) except for the one thing he cannot cover up, overcome or outshine - the Truth and the power of the real one true GOD who is Love, Truth and Life.

Check out Psalm 2, and Isaiah 31:8-9, Obama.

St. Nikao said...

Obama is the first President of the United States of America who, though he has studied law and even taught the US Constitution, has no idea what America is all about and who in his heart, is not really an American citizen.

He is like a Christian theologian who is not saved or a believer.

Obama's American goal is to turn the US into an Islamic totalitarian fascist regime and make it the 58th OIC state.

He wants revenge for the death of his biological father, for slavery, for British colonialism, for the crusades, and ultimately, for G-D's selection of Isaac rather than Ishmael, Jacob rather than Esau, Joseph and Moses rather than Pharaoh, Judaism and Christianity rather than the religion of the Caananites, Moabites, Jebusites, Ishmaelites, Islam who served false gods and idols: Baal, Molech, Dagon, the moon, sun, stars, animals, wealth, bountiful harvests, fertility, sexual pleasure and their own male parts. In other words, worship of power and wealth, of the flesh and the evil spirits.

Mohammed had a chance but was too proud and angry to choose God's way, but he rejected both Judaism and Christianity to invent his own religion. His writings are the story of his conflicted spiritual journey.

The writings in Mecca are relatively peaceable and respectful of Judaism and Christianity. The Medina writings are full of hate for both and are full of rage, and mandates to kill all who would not convert to his religion and live under his rule. In the latter period, women and outsiders are considered sub-human.

The contradiction between these two periods has produced conflicted, unstable people and nations that cannot reconcile within their own minds, with other nations or each other.

Islam is and will always be in rebellion against God, produce war and conflict, the opposite of peace, the opposite of the fruit of the Holy Spirit.

Islam (Assyria, Babylon, Egypt) and other pagan groups always rose up as God's means of discipline when the children of Israel rebelled against God. When they repented and returned to God, they were freed from captivity. They would also have famine, plagues and loss of their families and other hardships.

This is happening today because of the sin of the Western nations (abortion, sexual sin, dishonesty). Unless we repent, we will not escape from the Assyrians and other evil that has infiltrated our gates or the economic crisis that is looming upon us.

The sword and strength of man and military cannot defeat these enemies, it will take God's power and help. The human part is always repentance and returning to the Word of God.

II Kings 6:16-17, II Chronicles 7:14, 20:12, 34:14, Nehemiah 4:6, Isaiah 31:8-9.

• It is the U.S. government, not "the rich", that is the most powerful monopoly on the planet, for it is the largest insurer, guarantor, pension provider, banker, health care system, debtor, etc.

• It is the U.S. government, not "the rich", that grows always larger -- never shrinking -- as temporary politicians attempt to construct a Utopian society that never was and never can be.

• It is the U.S. government, not "the rich", that constantly seeks to evade the limits, the bonds and constraints placed upon it by the Constitution.

• It is the U.S. government, not "the rich", that has the ability to imprison, to punish, to fine under force of law, almost always for the sole purpose of growing larger and confiscating more and more private property.

Those on the Left would do well to consider the government as the world's largest, most powerful corporation. And now that it has breached the firewalls of the Constitution, it is a corporation on the road to total control over its citizens. In fact, some would call it tyranny.

Under an OBama Administration:

-New home sales in the United States hit a brand new all-time record low during 2011.

-The average duration of unemployment in America is close to an all-time record high.

-The percentage of Americans living in "extreme poverty" is at an all-time high.

-The number of Americans on food stamps recently hit a new all-time high. It has increased by 3 million since this time last year and by more than 14 million since Barack Obama first entered the White House.

-When Barack Obama first took office, the number of "long-term unemployed workers" in the United States was approximately 2.6 million. Today, that number is sitting at 5.6 million.

-During the Obama administration, worker health insurance costs have risen by 23 percent.

-During the Obama administration, the U.S. government has accumulated more debt than it did from the time that George Washington took office to the time that Bill Clinton took office.

I wonder what the next four years will be like?

Screw you, and screw those disgusting disresptful racists POS! attacking Obama for doing something your Bushboy couldn't do!

And that kills you racists inside! Yeah! I called you racists beause that's what you slimeballs are!

No president, including Obama, has ever hated America. If he did, he would not have run for office. Different presidents have different opinions, but he is always doing what he feels is best for the country at the time.

Do you even know what Marxism is or are you just copy and pasting from some Fox News fanboy site? If anything, Obama has been steadily right of center on economic issues, a conservative in many respects.

The nearest this country ever came to anything resembling socialism was under FDR with the creation of Social Security. But you knew that, right?

Dispensing disinformation, promoting bigotry and racism, and playing upon the fears and ignorance of many Americans – supplemented by a much more than healthy dose of self-promotion GOP can't win on the issues, so they resort to hate, bigotry and fear.


No formula for leadership: It not only shows how bereft of ideas the GOP's members truly are, their racist rhetoric shows the despicable nature of their character.

It’s a shame that in 2012, nearly 150 years after the Emancipation Proclamation, racial hatred toward African-Americans is on the rise, in large part, because Barack Obama was elected as America’s first black president.

If Obama is re-elected to the White House in November, I wonder what more we can expect from right-wing racists in the next four years.

Dear Mr. common sense; heh. the fault in your reasoning is you think there actually are two separate parties. Once opon a time, maybe, 50 yrs. back, Why do you think Mittens had such an up-hill slog w/ primary voters? The battle is really one of liberai(left) vs. conservitive(right). What political movements come from the left? Socialism, communism, and(sorry) facism. All of these are herd-response movements, designed to make people feel like the leaders "care" for their welfare, a mistake since mostlythe leaders seek to secure the power of the movement, or govt. For themselves. THIS OCCURS WETHER THEY CALL THEMSELVES DEM. OR GOP. What comes from the right? Far right, you will find anarchy. No law, every one for themselves, CHAOS. No system, so nothing gets done. But closer to the center you find the idea of individual freedom, liberty, balenced by a corresponding set of responsibilities to behave civilly towards others, support yourself and family, etc. "My civil rights end one inch short of your nose". One of the greatist ideas to come out of the American Revolution is what modern liberals seek to destroy, personal property rights. The idea that each person has the RIGHT to decide what to do with their own property, including income, as long as no one is deliberatly harmed. This is why the legal system exists, to act as referee and ensure injuries are paid for. No better system exists as long as it's in balence. cronycapitalism, over-reaching regulation and allowing certain people to operate above the law(more widespread in this Admin. than last, imo) that screw up the works. Oh, by the way, I'm a reg. Democrat..... JohninMd(help!)

Using the liberal way of thinking(?) imagination..Lt Col, Adam West is against obama, so therefore by the liberal ideology he isn't really black.

They do not want to acknowledge that Obama's ideology is why and only why he has any opposition whatsoever; hence why one's race has zero to do with one's ideology.

I'm thinking that AT BEST they could accuse you of being only HALF RACIST. Right?

I have to say to this list and the comments: Most of these things can be attributed to past presidents and their foreign policy. Or have you guys have forgotten about your Republican douchebag at foreign policy Reagan, who was so paranoid there was a BIT of change in Latin America towards the lower classes that he started a useless war down there for something that wasn't even communist but, you know, a little bit of change?! Would I vote for Romney?! Hah! Not after seeing that your beloved Bush sinked us into a recession almost the magnitude of the great depression and after Reagan and Bush senior spent almost as much as all the post-Roosevelt presidents combined! As far as I see it, most of you need to go read history and see the economic records of our last presidents. Sure, Obama has spent a lot, but remember now, he bailed out those companies ran by so-called Republicans who were "too big to fail" (GM I am looking at you), plus the fact that also Roosevelt spent far more than Obama to end the Great Depression while boosting our GDP when entering WWII to an amazing 100+% says something about his economic recovery plans.

This list is mostly full of lies.

For example, the War Powers Act has been around for decades, and president do what they want anyway. That's not news.

At the other end of the list: the The Law Of The Sea Treaty has been around for decades, and been supported by several other presidents.

I don't expect any of the idiots posting here to be able to use the google to confirm the above and so what? There's no cure for stupid!

To Mt. Top Patriot.....Obama is just one more in a long line of establishment Presidents who have wiped their asses with the Constitution. Bush and Obama have just done it more openly. Romney would and will do the same. Vote Gary Johnson if you really care about saving our country!

@anon 7:05

A vote for Gary Johnson is a vote for Barack Obama. Use your head.

We sided with the Soviets during WW2 to defeat the Nazis.

I'm not likening Democrats to Nazis, but the tactics are the same. We side with the RINOs to WIN, DAMMIT.

Then we destroy the RINOs.

Use your head!

Bread and circuses (fast food, gaming, so-called reality TV, the Internet, and porn) keep us from revolting. If a VAT is imposed, then maybe, just maybe that will spur a small revolt. What is needed is for some states to break away, but the odds of that happening are slim to none.

In response to (It came in as number 7 in my email): [ • First President to Spend a Trillion Dollars on 'Shovel-Ready' Jobs -- and Later Admit There Was No Such Thing as Shovel-Ready Jobs ]

I looked this up and you can find where he said, "There are no Shovel Ready programs" and you can find where he said the country needs a trillion to fix the economy, or to quote that number correctly, "1.2 trillion" but you can't say he did what is said here. He didn't spend a trillion on jobs that aren't there. That statement is ludicrous, in and of itself! And by the way, admitting there aren't any shovel ready programs can be interpreted to each his own.

Here's the comment in the true context: In his interview with Mr. Baker, the president said that the benefit of infrastructure spending was that for every dollar spent, “you get a dollar and a half in stimulus because there are ripple effects from building roads or bridges or sewer lines.”

“But the problem is,” he continued, “is that spending it out takes a long time, because there’s really nothing — there’s no such thing as shovel-ready projects.” http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1871915,00.html Further reading proves to understand even more what was meant by the administration as well as some Republican members using the term "shovel ready" hoping to help the economy, which peaked, what? MID JUNE 2008? http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/10/15/obama-lesson-shovel-ready-not-so-ready/

Mr Ross, Sir, if you're going to post this list of blatant myths, you could actually do your duty to all who come upon it, and - now don't worry, I won't expect you to use factual documents for proof - but at least, please, do your homework and add the sites that are "reputable" with any of the quotes that appear from your list. Oh, and by the way, You didn’t cite your source by telling your readers it came from “(Source: President Obama during an early meeting of his 'Jobs Council')” but his words don’t actually state “I spent a trillion dollars on jobs that weren’t there.” The two articles explain in a way that is understandable of what he meant by that quote from the video clip. It’s all about context.


Thank you, Penny Bradford

Nice try, Penny, but that wasn't the admission I was referring to. It was Obama's statement at the ill-fated "Jobs Council":

It was explained to Obama that the permitting process can delay projects for "months to years ... and in many cases even cause projects to be abandoned ... I'm sure that when you implemented the Recovery Act your staff briefed you on many of these challenges." At this point, Obama smiled and interjected, "Shovel-ready was not as ... uh .. shovel-ready as we expected." The Council, led by GE's Jeffrey Immelt, erupted in laughter.

"He's a couple of years behind the rest of America," said Brendan Buck, a spokesman for House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio. "But it's refreshing that the president himself is now acknowledging the failure of his stimulus program."


(CNBC video)

In fact, this entire debacle was a payoff to the public sector unions, which in turn secured their support in 2010 and 2012. Only 6% of the Stimulus went to construction projects.

So, Penny, want to try and attack another one of these items?

First President to have spiritual leader the Dalai Lama escorted out the back door, past the garbage of the White House.

Anonymous said...

Look, all of this shouldn't have even come to this point because the guy was never eligible to be president of the united state of America.

To be eligible a person has to be a natural born citizen. Obama is not a natural born citizen because of a few things that happened to him in his youth (not even including the birth certificate deception).

1. His mother marries a Indonesian citizen named Lolo Sotoro. Lolo adopts Barry. They move to Indonesia. Put little "Barry" in public school. At that time in Indonesia a person could not go to public school unless they were a citizen. Indonesia did not allow dual citizenship at that time. Barry's transcripts say: citizenship=Indonesian and religion=muslim.
2. After 5 years of this, Barry returns to Hawaii to live with his grandparents. Even if he did have his citizenship reinstated (which he didn't) then he would become a naturalized citizen (which is not eligible to be president of the USA). Only a natural born citizen can be president.
3. Barry goes on to enroll at Occidental College in CA as a foriegn citizen and leave to spend 2 years in Pakistan (at a time when American citizens were not allowed in the country due to the war they were in). Barry gets in a stays for 2 years. What was he doing there?
4. Below average student, Barry is accepted into Columbia University after his trip to Pakistan as a foriegn student again. His college records remain locked up to this day.

Bottom line is: This guy is an ineligible anti-colonialist who wants to bring America down and prop up countries that he has percieved have been shorted throughout the past.

I continue to be amazed at how red-faced, pony tail wearing, emotionally disturbed liberals just ignore facts and continue to spout there garbage. It's a real shame and I think it will eventually lead to some very destructive times in this country.
