Ah yes, the race card. You can be as inept, corrupt or evil as you want, because you've always got that in your pocket.

Who exactly is racists here? People who look past color, or ONLY see color?

Obstuctionists: the Dem Senate, led by Reid, who have numerous bills collecting dust, and no budget for years.

You know, I think the majority of the American people are great people. Friendly, helpful, respectful and just generally nice folks. However, I have very little doubt at all that your figure of HALF the people being evil is WAY low if we are referring to those political whores you have there in Washington. I'm quite sure that 90% of them are self serving, lying, cheating, backstabbing SOB's.

It seems that the political class in the USA is rotten to the core and serves it's self above anything else. Just take a look at the number of elected officials in the country that have been arrested tried and convicted for their crimes. It's incredible. That's just the very tip of the iceberg because even your justice system is corrupt to the core. I believe if you sent a nonpolitical incorruptable law enforcement task force to the USA with the mission of busting every single crooked politican in the country that over 90% of them would be in jail.
Hire the Mounties to come down there and clean things up. LOL. Not only the politicians, half the FBI, DEA, ATF and others in your innumerable phalnax of out of control cops would also be jailed for their illegal acts.

Trust me, the country is far more divided now than it has been in a long time, The left has made darned sure of that.

The government and President are not in the jobs business, that is a Private Sector issue, or didn't you know that. You Socialists are funny.
No the government is not in the jobs business, it is however able to do things that cause businesses not to hire, and force them to reduce the number of employees. etc etc. Making it more difficult to transact business is a great way to reduce employment also. BTW, I am not a socialist.

The majority of our debt was due to two wars that were started long before Obama ever took office, funny how you ignore the details and prefer to post talking points based on political attacks and not the facts. I would also add that in a Recession, the debt ALWAYS goes up, maybe when those tax cuts come to an end there will be more money to work on that.
Nice try. if that were the case the massive increases in debt would have also taken place under Bush. While we had increases under Bush, they were nowhere near as massive as under Obama. We of course won't discuss Obama's illegal military actions in Libya. Additionally, you will note that when Bush took office in 2000, he also took office during a recession.

He has not fullfilled all his promises yet, but has made some headway, no thanks to the Repubs, he will need more time, and he will get it, chew on that for a while.
Hasn't fulfilled his promises? That's an understatement if I ever heard one. BTW, he had 2 years completely unrestricted get whatever he wants with nothing the republicans could do to restrict things, so blaming the republicans for anything he has failed at, is like blaming the neighbors cats for getting your dog pregnant.

More talking points, about time for you guys to come up with some new material, repeating the same idiotic comments such as comparing him to Carter only makes it looks as if you guys are reading fom a script, hmmm, maybe there is more truth to that than we realize.
Speaking of reading from a script, look at the OP's beginning post.. That's a script if I ever saw one, and as for carter, since I personally saw how badly he hosed up the country, I can MAKE that correlation.

Stupid people, put stupid people into office.

We've been going downhill for a number of years now, and I don't see it ending anytime soon.

Obama is just the latest addition to the stupidity.

They are a major chunk of it, or did you miss that
Tax cuts are revenue losses, same as if you are still spending yet your salary went down, your debtgoes up, try a little economics 101. But not to worry those are about to end

SAVING jobs is different from CREATING jobs, BIG difference
