He didn't do that. I supported and still support that idea. Obama has done the exact opposite the last 8 years. He has done a lot of harm to the middle and lower classes.

Don Lemon would need to shut his mouth as well. He is give such a free reign to do and say what be wants now on air is pathetic. Take for example his recount of a "racist" situation he encountered in a NYC bar. A fellow patron in the bar asked "how you feel as a black person about what has happened" . He goes on to say the whole bar , majority White all turn on the person who asked the qst. Ah well, just a day in the life of the "man of the people" Don Lemon. All of this tugging at the heartstrings is just not professional nor appropriate and his ratings are certainly showing it right now.

What else are you going to do when you don't have a job and you have seen every episode of Judge Joe Brown 4 times?

He has done as much and more than many, by all means, give him credit to have moved forward the things he has, when he's had 7.5 yrs of Republican Opposition on every single thing.
It's a difficult thing to meet the aims one has before they take the seat, when faced with Right Wing obsessive madness at ever turn. Before he was sworn in, the "We Want Our Country Back Craziness Ramp'ed up"

One has to look at where we were as a nation, the devastation's and losses, facing the nation, when President Obama took office. These things had to be addressed, and in doing so, each step was pushing against a Republican Down-Draft with the loud screaming and every other distracting antic they could come up with. These people hated the concept of Hope and Change, and they fought against anything they even remotely felt would inspire hope and they spent 100's of billions doing in ways people can't even fathom, as a means to do all they could to push back change and not allow it to be full circle.

He has not done the opposite, he has simply navigated in a maze that was not a maze of such sorts before he won office. The collusion created by Right Wing mentality is the maze I speak of.

Remind me again what the role of an OPPOSITION party is again?

He had the House and Senate and blew it. Totally blew it.

His approval rating was over 70%. He blew it.

He renominated the Republican complete failure at the Fed. He did not have to bring on the Wall Street stooge that was Geithner. None of these things were because of the (R)'s and they were a big reason why Wall Street has thrived while the middle class has stagnated with the lower classes falling further behind.......we won't even discuss the stupid middle east decision.
