As opposed to having to "pass it" in order to know what is "in it"?

That beats all stupid from either side of the isle.

Ever.

Killing Bin Laden was just a PR move, Bin Laden was a product of the CIA, ISIS is also a product of the CIA. Cut off one head, two more pops up.

Obamacare will be abandoned the minute he leaves office, Universal Healthcare will never work in the US.

Obama did an ok job given the circumstances, but history will most likely remember him as the first "black" president, and future white generations will see him as the who led America to its downfall.

Really? So it wasn't an unfunded war that cost the U.S. six trillion dollars, or massive bank fraud that brought us to the brink of disaster, but Obamacare that leads to America's downfall?

You got that right.

Future white people will blame Obama just because he is "black", a lot of white Americans today like to blame Obama just because he is "black".

I'd like to think that future Americans will assess Obama's presidency on what he did not what he looked like. I guess you could call me a hopeless optimist for believing America will eventually grow up and grow out of racism.

In your opinion, what do you think he has Done Right. Looking for intelligent responses. (If you think he has done nothing right, that's okay too. BUT what issues has he at least tried to address to some succession at the least)
Well, if you own stock in one of the chosen insurance companies, he has guaranteed your corporation a profit.

I don't believe his contributions to one of the worst eras in race relations can be considered a positive.

Why did conservative criticize Bill Clinton practically all of the time?

Conservatives don't like Obama's policies just as they didn't like Clinton's policies.

Just because it rained during your picnic, that doesn't mean it was racism, it means it was weather.

The history is that the last time Republicans controlled the Presidency, House and Senate the deficit was low. As Dems started gaining control of the House & Senate, the deficit rose when George Bush was President. When Dems controlled all 3 branches, we had record high deficits. Then as Republicans started controlling the House and Senate, the deficit is decreasing....these are indisputable facts.

We need a balanced Budget Amendment that requires our government to balance their books without a deficit no matter which idiots are controlling the candy store!
