List Five POSITIVE Things The Current Person In Office Has Done For AMERICA

Easy

1. Appointed decent Federal judges. The single most implant and lasting thing a President can do.
2. Ended the dumbest war in American history. One down, one to go.
3. Passed a stimulus bill that, while too small, did avert a major depression.
4. Passed a flawed, but but still very important first ever health care bill that will approximate universal coverage.
5. While he foolishly bought into the idea of a "war on terror," at least he started fighting it like he wanted to win instead of just enriching the defense industry, expanding executive power, and cutting back on civil liberties.
6. Stopped enforcing some, but not enough, foolish immigration laws.
7. Repealed don't ask, don't tell. And just as importantly, the President finally stood up and said that the government shoud tell you who you can and can't marry.
8. Passed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act.
9. Said torture is unacceptable no matter what the circumstances.
10. Restored out standing in the world. Now when you travel abroad, you don't have to be embarrassed about the President of the United States

Next question?

I see this thread has been taken care of...

1. He has given us an insight into how tyranny will prevail in this country.
2. He has exposed the Republicans for being as anti-freedom and anti-American as the Democrats by obtaining bipartisan support for the NDAA.
3. He has strengthened the hands of banksters by refusing to rein in the Fed, or support an audit thereof.
4. He has shown us how good our medical system used to be before he handed control of it to the IRS.
5. He has (hopefully) galvanized the Liberty Movement to take back the country from the statists in four years, should there be any country left.

maybe you should learn what youre talking about before you talk ..

The bill, HR 3200, specifically bars coverage for illegal immigrants. Section 246, which is included in the part of the bill that sets up a health insurance exchange, forbids payments "on behalf of individuals who are not lawfully present in the United States. Originally Posted by CJ7

Yeah, I'm wondering what the hell you're thinking here, too.

He only just posted this question, so I know you posted this AFTER the shit storm riots in all the Islamic countries over the blasphemy film.

Somehow, I don't think our standing in the world has improved in the Islamic world or most of the rest of the world outside Western Europe.

Obama made that supposedly great outreach speech to the Muslim world a couple of years back and it appears to have changed absolutely nothing. In fact, the ragheads in Egypt are demanding that the US pass blasphemy laws to punish anyone who criticizes Islam. Apparently our rights and our first Amendment mean jack shit to them.

Too many on the left think the "rest of the world" means other leftwingers in Europe who already think like them.

Yeah. Like you have the mental ability to pull something like that off.

You make it too easy.

Dumbass.

1. Affordable Care Act
2. Ended the War in Iraq
3. Saved the auto industry
4. Killed Bin Laden
5. Saved the major financial institutions from collapse (people seem to forget that)

Oh and here is about 50 MORE!

How about a reality check? The happiest face that can be put on that $860 billion collection of payoffs to favored constituencies is that it perhaps made the recession slightly less bad in 2009-2010 than otherwise would have been the case. The obvious fact that the economy began recovering (although slowly) before any of the money was actually spent, and before the supposedly "temporary" tax cuts that made up about one-third of the total "stimulus" had a chance to take hold, shows that claims that the ARRA "averted a major depression" are laughably ridiculous.

I have the same feeling here. You must be looking at a different world.

Perhaps I could quibble with some of other items on your list of Obama's "accomplishments", but those are a couple of pretty juicy servings of low-hanging fruit.
