If you believe failure is the example of something working, so be it.

Is it too much for the hard-working American to expect our elected officials to conduct themselves as adults, to not lie and deceive us, to be respectful and considerate of others?

Is it too difficult to understand that Americans expect to have discourse and grievances with our elected leaders and the federal government? No, not Obama and his followers. They thought Obama had a pen and a phone.

Obama supporters think Obama should get his way on everything regardless of consequences. If you dare disagree with Obama, the attacks and name calling from the left was unbelievable.

That depends on what the goal is.

They failed the American people but the people didn't matter to them anyway. They succeeded in staying in power, that is their main goal hence they succeeded.

By the way... lying obviously works too. Obama proved it.

He is at record lows and about to lose the Senate after already losing the House.

It is strange though that some of his strongest supporters on here are strangely silent about this.

The first thing that came to my mind when I read your post was Pelosi staggering across the aisle and telling Marino he was an "insignificant person".

Yes, how does that make for good discussion? It doesn't.

Despite disagreeing with me, you don't really.

Many aren't complaining because they like Obama even though he HAS built on what Bush started....

However, if he is building on W's foundation why are so many on the right acting like he is the exact opposite of W? Is Obama left or center right? Make up your mind

Seems to me most argue that Obama is Bush. That is my position.
