Why would you vote for Obama in 2012? (Iraq, Afghanistan, stats)

[HomeWurkin]

As someone who voted for Mr. Hope N. Change, and would rather vote for a 1 legged nudist circus midget with priapism in 2012 than Obama, I'd like to know why you WOULD re-elect the man.

I'm not trying to throw stones. I really want to know. What has this man actually accomplished for you as a citizen since he took office? How is your life better with Barack Obama running this country? Do tell. Maybe I'm missing something.

Well, if he picks another dysfunctional woman for the Supreme Court, I'll have a perfect reason to emigrate to southern France.

I'd re-elect Obama cause I don't see anyone that can do a better job from the choices that you gave. I also don't want to see the SCOTUS lurch even more to the right than it already is. Scalia might croak in the next four year term. It's important that we replace him with a more rational Justice.

If I remember correctly, his campaign slogan was "Yes WE Can", not "Yes I can". He's doing his part, it's up to everyone else to do theirs...

Perhaps. But he seems to have the only speaking part.

No, I did not vote for him, nor would I come 2012. Out of the three listed the "Don" would get my vote.

Also going with Trump.

He's the only one who understands we should to tie our assistance to foreign nations and access to our markets to things we want.

Your title has nothing to do with your poll.
Let's see 52 posts and starting negative partisan threads.
Recycled poster perhaps?

If you were really interested in Obama's accomplishments you could have googled "Obama Accomplishments" as I have. There are over 1.5M hits if you don't like these:

He has been an exceptional president. Anyone who votes for anyone else is crying desperately for professional help.

He's stabilized an economy that was in tailspin and he's given confidence to the financial markets. That's all I really NEED him to do.
The following is based on Dow Jones Industrial and Bureau of Economic Analysis stats:

When Barack Obama came into office:

The Dow Jones Industrial Average had decline about 24% in the years George W. Bush Jr. was in office until the day he left.

The economy had NEGATIVE GDP growth.

January 2009 non-farm payrolls showed a LOSS of 779,000 month.

Personal income had decreased on a quarterly basis from Q3 2008 to Q1 2009

Starting in Q1 2008 until Q2 2009 Government Receipts declined every quarter.

Starting Q3 2007 until Q3 2009 Gross Domestic Investment fell in every quarter.

Private Fixed Investment in this country FELL every quarter in this country from Q2 2006 until Q3 2009

Exports declined in Q4 2008 and they decline for every quarter until Q3 2009


Since President Obama has been in office;

The Dow Jones Industrial Average has risen about 40%

The economy has had positive GDP growth for the past 6 quarters.

Non-farm payrolls have increased since October 2010.

Personal Income has increased every quarter Barack Obama has been in office.

Government Receipts have increased every quarter since Q2 2009.

Gross Domestic Investment has increased every quarter since Q4 2009.

Private Fixed Investment has increased every quarter since Q3 2009

Exports increased in Q4 2008 and they increased every quarter since in fact U.S exports are now at RECORD LEVELS. In fact since President Obama has been in office exports have increased 25%.



But on top of that he ended combat operations in Iraq and he's looking to get us out of Afghanistan. These combat operations have been a huge drain on the federal budget and hopefully when they are behind us we can address the national debt.

The repeal of Don't Ask Don't Tell and his decision not to defend the Defense of Marriage Act in Court were steps forward to giving all Americans equal rights in this country.
