Obama's immigration policies have deported more illegals than the last two combined. But, go ahead, persist in your delusions. Kind of beside the point now. Less than six months to go. What will you say then?

Iamme,

I graduated from college during the worst recession in recent history, 10.2% unemployment, and earned way better, and got a job in my field of study, than college grads do now several years after graduation. College grads in the Obama economy work part-time at Starbucks if they are lucky.

Same, but when they lecture everyone on the need to pay more taxes, while they do what they can to avoid them.. that credit kinda disappears..

You're terrified of the Tea Party, huh? Hahaha......oooooookaaaaay.
But to answer the question: Republican House members put the brakes on Hussein's immigration amnesty bill. And then won re-election in a landslide. And that's good enough for me.

That's what fascinates me so much about Obama:

He's for open borders then deports the most.

He's against drones and drones the hell out of everyone.

He's for black equality and then bankrupts most and keeps wages for blacks super low.

He's for lower income inequality but then has the highest income inequality in US history.

He's against Global warming and then he and Michelle take their own personal separate jets to the same city for parties.

He's for closing Gitmo and leaves it open.

He's for pulling out of Afghanistan and 6 + years later, still there.

He's against the rich fat cats on Wall Street and then borrows Trillions from the Chinese and gives it to his rich fat cat buddies that elected him.

I could go on and on...he's certifiably mental or he's actually for everything he says he's against and against everything he says he's for.

You should watch Fox News. You would learn a lot.

Oh, and in Schuette v. Coalition to Defend Affirmative Action the conservative wing of the Supreme Court, with a little help from Kennedy and Breyer, upheld the right of the people to ban the use of racial discrimination policies in admission to state universities. That's a good deed done.

Oh for Christ's sake. Obummer is the most partisan President in history and Reid stopped more votes than anyone in recent history. Come back when you have something meaningful to post.

Well, I don't know if this has made the country any better, but here's what this person has done for the past six years:

January 21, 2009: went on the internet and accused people of being racists.
January 22, 2009: went on the internet and accused people of being racists.
January 23, 2009: went on the internet and accused people of being racists.
January 24, 2009: went on the internet and......well you get the point, it pretty much just goes on and on like this until the present day.

Oh so you got nothing.

Again this is not about President Obama.

conservatives have gotten nothing right in 15 years worth of world events. They haven't just been wrong. They have been spectacularly wrong. It is being wrong on an epic scale.


On issue after issue from the GWBush tax cuts, to the war on terror, the war in Iraq, the stimulus, the affordable care act, the auto bailout, gays in the military, the Ebola crisis, the Central American immigration crisis, etc, conservatives made predictions they said this, this, that, will occur about those situations and more, and not one thing they said was correct, not one thing.

Again, conservatives have been wrong about everything for the last 15 years.

Forget President Obama, his legacy/place in American history is undeniable, but think about conservatives and their predictions about where the economy was headed because of the stimulus, because of quantitative easing from the fed, conservatives across the board made these doomsday predictions and not one of those predictions has occurred. Not one.

conservatives made predictions about the Iraq war and the war on terror again, not one, not a singe prediction came to be. conservatives are batting zero for the last 15years.
