if he was really worried about terrorism he would have the borders secured, everyone and their mother can get through there if they really want to. dont forget the fact that he wants to emancipate 12+ million criminals which most of the country strongly opposes.


literally any president could have given the go ahead like obama did, but it doesnt fix the economy and thats what people are really going to be concerned about in 2012, then bye bye obama. so have your fun while it lasts with all these retarded threads.

Your arguing FOR Obama, right?

U.S. Jobless Rate Soared in January and Payrolls Kept Plunging - Bloomberg

The jobless rate rose to 7.6 percent from 7.2 percent in December, the Labor Department reported yesterday in Washington.
Your article is from Feb. '09.

It's true. Obama is well respected over here and we are happy that sanity has returned to the White House after 8 catastrophic years of Bush.

HAH !!!

Like his likability rating in Europe really matters to the American voter. It didn't stop Bush from being re-elected did it ?

Just as 99.9% of Americans couldn't care less who is in charge in Denmark, Ethipia or Mongolia.

Maybe you guys can draft him for your next election. But back to the topic of this thread, it's TOO EARLY to call it.

Obama deserves credit for Osama's capture and demise on his watch, that I agree with.

As we have seen with natural disasters (Japan's tsunami), political crisis ( Libya and the rest of the Middle East), high unemployment and gas prices there are things that you can't really predict and/or plan for.

It's not 6 months til election time , it's 18 months and alot of things can still happen.

this guy has done more in 2.5 years than Bush did in 8....
1. Started by Bush/finished by Obama
2. We'll see how that plays out in the long wrong
3. Not doing anything productive
4. Lie - he hasn't done a thing with regards to the world's economy. Sending ours into the toilet.
5. Job losses haven't had a meaningful reverse. Some months up, some down. But overall, unemployment still higher than his 8% promise
6. Doesn't matter when nobody has jobs anyway
7. Increased debt, and put 2 plans together, neither of which cut the debt
8. Not out yet
9. Extended Bush's tax credits, under enormous pressure
10. For educations that won't result in jobs, since there aren't any
11. Foreign leaders have no respect for us, or him

12. You got this one right. Tripled the deficit, brought unemployment up to record highs, dollar dropping in value, gas prices highest in ages.

Like most liberals believed 9/11 was a govt plot?

Truth is, Obama's grandmother stated early in the campaign he was born in Kenya. She was quickly shut up.

Calling O "untouchable" is wishful thinking.... the man has been exposed as a Marxist and a disaster for America who will surely LOSE in 2012. ACORN can't help him cheat his way into the WH this time around.

Nice try though.

Maybe you should be a standup comedian...But before you consider this too seriously, keep your day time job.

You are right about one thing: he has done more than Bush, more damage. I guess you don't realize how much of what he has done is against what the country wants and the respect from foreign leaders, the say more like the clown the foreign leaders are laughing at...
