As some have noted, what's actually wearing thin are the excuses for one content-free Obama-bashing spree after another. It's senseless. Particularly when no actual analysis or anything close to resembling a reasonable policy alternative is suggested.
if you dislike obama, educate yourself on the issues he supports or doesnt support and the policies he hopes to implement. then form your opinion. stop going after the guy with pot shots like "he hasnt done anything".
this is the stuff that makes liberals look so silly when they say "i hate bush" when they have no clue what they are talking about.
Remember my fellow republicans, the silly uneducated political potshots go both ways. They call us teabaggers, we sarcastically call obama "the messiah" or "the chosen one" instead of forming reasonable arguments prompting intelligent debate.
You shouldnt even be posting on this forum if you arent somewhat open minded. this is a forum for discussion not for downright unintelligible arguments.
I'm curious to hear what Obama failed on, would you care to elaborate?
Well, ONE example is the tactic he employs to deal with his critics. Demonize them, try to marginalize them and if that fails, go for a full frontal assault.
Now, I seem to remember campaign obama talking about a "new" kind of politics, that he wasn't interested in or would engage in those "old" "politics as usual", that he would bring all sides together, he would engage, he would listen.
So far, as the examples from the article states, he has done none of those things.
Remember those "divisive and partisan" politics he lamented about on the campaign trail?
Quote:
The White House trying to dictate who's a news organization. Democrats out to gut a business group. Obama media allies damning Americans as racist, unpatriotic and treasonous. Is this the America Obama promised when he campaigned to end the cynical and divisive politics of the past?
You can't fail when he only promised hope and change :-) You got a new president that is about it. Same policies, same stupid government same stupid ideas.
Still in Iraq, Still spending like bush on wars and bailouts, still promising things via other peoples money and my favorite complaining when Americans want to know the details of a bill. Still not reading the bills, so its the same congress too.
Sounds like a complete success, its just how I thought I was going to go. Talk, Talk, Lie, Cheat and Steal and kill some people in other country with no plan of victory.
Followed by dumbing down America with lies and false information in the schools, promote "global climate change" power over the individual and whatever you do use the race card as last resort.
Pstt... Obama is half white.. psstt don't tell anyone.
I'm sure the pro civil right liberals and libertarians will LOVE this. Should bring lots of new interest in the Obama's administration's "hope and change".
So, name ONE person who can barrel into the oval office, and get 100% of everything done right away ? Who can make the senate, and congress bow, scape, kiss butt ? ALL the time ? What type of person does it take ? Pushy, nasty, wipes his/her feet on the constitution, and somehow convinces the sheeple that it's okay to be a jerk, warmonger, and trump up 101 reasons to beat up on 3rd world countries.

More Cheez-Whiz history. Obama has extended a hand across the aisle time and time again only to see it slapped away. He has time and time again frustrated the liberal wing of his own party by insisting on governing from the center when he could just steamroller the Republicans and be done with them. It's the Republicans who are the spoiled brat whiners and screamers in this scenario. Almost to a man or woman (how many women do they have again?) they refuse to work with the President on any effort for any purpose. They are the PARTY OF NO. That's their plan and they are sticking to it.

Not too likely. Probably, he'll be saying Wow! Look who the Republicans thought was competent to serve in national office THIS time!!!
I actually agree with you, because we all know that Obama wont be able to say
"Wow, look at how great this nation has become during my term"...
Its all about, look over there, dont look at me, thats all the Democrats have to run on..
