I noticed that people of low intelligence or low income voted for Obama. They can't figure out how to make enough money and are not financially sound and bought into all the Obama hype yet these are the people who think they know what is best for an entire country.
...and the people who voted for the Republicans are...rocket scientists? Many of them believe that people rode on dinosaurs 2000 years ago and want to impose a Christian version of Sharia law on the United States.

Eh, he could be the next Abraham LIncoln, and i bet you would of continued with the same blah blah blah. I mean I think people who elected him, and were hopeful, can express disappointment
but Aero, you hated him from day 1 and regardless what he did you found the bad in it. Your disappointment post could of been saved from day one and posted today. Actions of this president haven't impacted your opinion.
So *yawn
I gave him more of a benefit of the doubt than you probably would expect. I wasn't quick to jump on him about the economy because of the hand he was dealt. But when it became clear that he was more about finger-pointing and less about solutions, I didn't have a choice to but to write him off as an unfortunate mistake. And that was when he actually had some semblance of a super-majority to help him out.
Since 2010, this President has made it abundantly clear what kind of leader he's not. Instead of leading from the back of the pack and blaming Republicans, he should have been a fixture in the halls of Congress, making personal appeals to the GOP instead of hiding in the West Wing and making "rare" phone calls. You know you're dealing with a timid, irrelevant puppet when all he can do is muster the energy to pick up the telephone instead of making face to face visits to make his case. Any astute professional (Barack is not one of them, obviously) knows that its MUCH harder to say no to someone when they're sitting right there in front of you. Lyndon Johnson had this down pat. Barack Obama, being a petulant narcissist, couldn't even force himself to do what he needed to do to get things done after the 2010 midterms.
I gave Obama plenty of wiggle room. Unfortunately for him, that wiggle room dried up when it became evident that he really has nothing to offer this country.

this is not a fact. Even Forever 21 reduced work hours, and never cited the ACA. It was well known that the company was already going through a re-org.
Strike 2
this is not a fact. the jobs in my industry still remain as full time and many make a living just fine from it. None of them have been turned into temp positions.
strike 3
oops YOU'RE OUT!
Not a "fact" in any of your post
Sorry but just because the business your in is doing well doesn't mean the rest are. Hospitals in our area have cut the nurses down to 30 or less hours a week - so they won't qualify for healthcare, UPS is no longer going to allow spouses on insurance policies if the spouse has a job with health care - many other business have already said that they will cut down on employee hours so they don't have to offr health care. Your job is 1 in 1 thousand.
I agree. As a historian, I have to say there is no other president in our history that even comes close to the appalling incompetence and disrespect this man has brought to the prestegious office of president of the United States.
Let's see here, it's about now that every Obamabot on CD is going to start making excuses for him. 4 3 2 1..........

Same here, hospitals not only cut nurses they cut ancillary services hours. We used to think that if you were sick being in the hospital was the best place, not anymore.

Thanks for the laugh. You really think you are fooling anyone that you had an open mind or gave any "wiggling". Again. Thanks.
What I am more ashamed of is that our american electorate was ignorant enough to elect him in the first place.... That is a true embarassment....
