Yet, his own party was defeated in the last election.

Well considering the fact that Bush took 2 years of vacation and Obama has taken less than a month, the answer would be Bush. He works even when he's on vacation. The amount he's taken during his first two years is minuscule compared to that which was taken by both Bushes and Reagan. The only time I recall him ever going on vacation was when it was during the holiday season. That right there is proof that he isn't Muslim because otherwise he'd have done that during Ramadan.

Democrats were in charge of the House, the Senate and the Presidency for 2 years. There was little to nothing Republicans could do to stop anything.

Anything that Obama did not accomplish was either his or his partys fault. Republicans had nothing to do with it.

I think most everyone realizes this.


They had 2 years to pass a budget for 2011. Repubs couldn't stop them. Now they blame Repubs because they were too incompetent to do their own job. Pathetic.

People last election voted based on emotion because he didn't make everything happen overnight. He's doing an outstanding job. Also, the Democrats have control of the Senate still last time I checked. They only lost the House, so no he didn't lose control of his party.

I agree that Obama will get reelected because of what you say.

People, blind with political party affiliation, will not take an objective view nor do any independent research.

And when the new 2012 promises start to hit the airwaves the masses will buy into them hook, line and sinker.

Orpheus I feel for you. However, you must know that you are outnumbered in this thread as the grown ups don't have the time or the patience to argue with those who will dismiss any information which goes contrary to their narrative.
