He is blind to the facts, so enamored is he with Obama and because he is such a strict adherent of "progressive" ideology, he will let nothing stand in the way. Not even truth.

It is not baseless.

Everyone can tell when one of those 'programs' ends. There are multiple posts afterward, with cut and paste verbiage from the show. Or, even stupider, just a 'headline' with a link in the post. No thought, idea, or content. To me, posts like that are a reflection of the poster's brain.

Yet you think it is better to have someone that has to throw an election to become president? America was reduced to a banana republic when W was put in office...as he was not elected.

I know facts are so inconvenient but here they are again for the remedial class at hand:
Obama won - get over it, and yes he is a black man in the white house
He took over in the midst of an economic colapse brought on by failed policies and practices of the Republican party.
The deficit had exploded with the promise of further expansion ( war, medicare part D, bailouts and so forth.
The housing market had crashed hard, The auto industry was considered history with no chance of survival. we were being told it would be a world without an American auto maker...btw something like 60% of all American jobs revolve around the auto industry
Obama brought about cash for clunkers... you know the program Repugs said did nothing...well nothing but defib the auto industry
Then he did the housing stimulus with jump started the housing market, he also changed regulations in order that millions would keep their homes
14 million have healthcare that didn't. You know the Act that Repugs have voted 53 times to kill, with no solution offered
repeal DADT
Equal rights for all,
marriage equality
He made finding Osama a priority he had him killed along with 29 of the top 30 operatives in Al Qaeda - Can you imagine how many lives were saved from this? Or do you want to believe they would have done nothing Since W took such decisive action against them...oh wait, he attacked the Iraqi's that had nothing to do with 9/11, and killed well over 100,000 people with ZERO gain.... except Dick Cheney got very rich on the blood of over 5000 American soldiers.

Obama signed the Credit Card Accountability, Responsibility and Disclosure Act
He has invested in alternate energy companies which has reduced our demand on oil 10% and created thousands of jobs
TARP monies were recovered when he changed the rules under which they got the money making bonuses not an option while they owed the government. Obama ordered 65 executives who took bailout money to cut their own pay until they paid back all bailout money..it was paid back quickly then. the 1% doesn't like living with the financial constraints the rest of us have.

I could list hundreds of accomplishments of this president yet the right would see NONE, just a black man in a white house. Oh and btw understand that the Repugs have had no part of his actions, they chose to obstruct and do nothing while being paid... except 53 votes against ACA. The real joke in Washington would be the Republican party lead by a drunk at the expense of the people, yes those people whose jobs were saved or created by our current president. While he wasn't my first choice, he has done an exceptional job especially considering he had no help from the right.

After all this, and nearly 6 years... all we hear is that he didn't have the credentials to be president... really and being the leader of an oil company that was run into the ground ( in a boom oil market) or gov of Texas qualifies you... yet all he did was eviscerate the economy, proving he clearly wasn't capable of being president...

Proof is in the pudding Obama - WIN , Bush - Lose

btw- those invested in stocks and money markets made far more money under Obama than Bush.... As you look at your portofolio lambasting the president, understand you have those gains are because of this president... Continue on with your hypocritical BS

Well, I can tell you as someone who didn't vote for Obama, I don't listen to Rush. I have better things to do with my time.

So what if slavery existed in other times or places?

This is a discussion of AMERICA'S worst mistake.

Just because a group of people jump off a bridge, does that mean everyone else should?
