What has Obama done well?

No, there are those that think Obama has done nothing wrong to this point, so if you think he's done a good job, say what he's done. My opinion of him shouldn't matter.



That's your opinion and your entitled to that. I think it's worded fine, instead of being nit-picky, why not actually be more like schneed and give examples. (can't believe I just use Schneed as a POSITIVE example) LOL


That's not bashing...pointing out what he has already done wrong is bashing. It's saying most of us know the negative, so let's get to the positive.

I don't pay attention to current events, so I have no idea what Obama's done -- good or bad. Sorry, I can't contribute to this thread.

I just thought your initial post was awfully matter-of-fact, but highly subjective, and a little fallacious. When I read it, my first thought was, "this guy doesn't care about what Obama has done right -- his motives lie elsewhere." I'm pretty sure giving that impression wasn't your intention, so I figured you could have worded it better to avoid that.

CRedskinsRule got it right.

He seems so be good at putting a lot of debt on the books, but that's pretty much all of them.

Hmmm? Let me see. Nothing really that I can see. Thanks for raising the taxes on my smokes jerk! (Middle Class tax increase)

Oh, I almost forgot. He's getting's Congressmen reamed out for his stupid BS. I love watching those politicians get screamed at. They deserve it IMO. It's not like they give a damn anyway, so might as well talk down to the rats.

If you want a free lunch then you'd be pretty happy with Obama. If you're going to have to pay for someone else's free lunch, whether you like it or not, then he can do no right.

In all fairness, he kept his mouth shut when the Persians were getting killed in the streets. That was good because it's not our business.

Nothing is ever black and white and with that in mind I find the following to be positives (concerns in parentheses).

More troops to Afghanistan (what is the end game? when is it?).
Getting out there to pimp universal health care (back room deals, possibility of no public option).
Stimulus/Bailout (though it might not be enough).
He attempt at bipartisanship (doesn't seem to work much though).
His willingness to go out and talk to the American people.
Support for education expenditures in the stimulus.
Support for cap and trade (not enough capping and no trade to speak of but it's a start).
Willingness to go out and cleanup the image of the U.S.
Reauthorizing SCHIP.
Supporting and signing the following legislation:

Weapon Systems Acquisition Reform Act
Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act
Credit CARD Act of 2009
Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009

He seems so be good at putting a lot of debt on the books, but that's pretty much all of them.

If I like it how is it that he can do no right?

If I recognize it, GhettoDogAllStars recognizes it, S10 recognizes it, CRedskinsRule seems to recognize it it is no longer in the realm of opinions.

Absolutely nothing.

But what do you expect? He hasn't done anything substantive in his entire life. He got his political philosophy from a Marxist social agitator (Saul Alinsky), his racial philosophy from an anti-semite, America hating racist (Jeremy Wright) and learned how to "community organize" from a terrorist (Bill Ayers). Obama is a narcissistic liar. A tyrant. A thug.

Never before have we had a President who identified LESS with the American people he is supposed to represent. We've been "hoodwinked", "bamboozled", as he often says in his speeches (taken from Malcolm X). This man has a disdain for the everyday American, and it is on full display right now with his fake town halls and attempts to paint anyone who opposes his radical agenda as ignorant, "rabble-rousing nay-sayers."

This man is very dangerous. You can repeal certain things that Bush did, if you don't like them, such as the Patriot Act. But you cannot repeal a Health Care Bill that will ruin our entire healthcare system (one fifth of our economy). You should be very angry at the speed in which the Congress, and this President tried to rush this thing through--because they wanted to avoid debate. As an American, I feel very betrayed.

HAHAHA...so I guess cause you all have the same OPINION, it no longer is an OPINION!
Thanks for pointing that out. I needed a laugh.

BTW, what is the credit card act of 2009?

Huh. Rolling Stone has a roundtable on Obama with the likes of Michael Moore, and he doesn't grade out any lower than a B- on the issues discussed. Shocking.

I really can't believe people actually think in this kinda way. It is sad how many people are just uneducated about the issues.
