Whoopdie ****ing do.

Just looking at the first five they have been failures every single one. I'd hate to go through the other 239 points.

Gotta laugh at these from the OP's article:

Quote:
ETHICS
Quote:
• Ordered the White House and all federal agencies to respect the Freedom of Information Act and overturned Bush-era limits on accessibility of federal documents (2009)
• Instructed all federal agencies to promote openness and transparency as much as possible (2009)
• Placed limits on lobbyists’ access to the White House (2009)
• Placed limits on White House aides working for lobbyists after their tenure in the administration (2009)
• Signed a measure strengthening registration and reporting requirements for lobbyists (2009)

Many of those things arent accomplishments and are outright lies.

for example
• Has urged Congress to adopt “Pay-Go” (whereby each dollar of spending is offset by a dollar in cuts or revenues, which was used in the `90s but abandoned in the `00s) (2010)

Since Obama is "urging" Congress to do something they arent doing, is this one of his failures? And why is he signing bills then that dont follow his own "urging"?

Great!


So

9.1 % unemployment
real unemployment at 25%
debt at $15 trillion
deficits of $1.3 trillion
manufacturing leaving
no domestic energy exploration or refining
open borders

.............. is all just imagined? The "accomplishments" noted have not been implemented nor followed. The fact is that the nation is on its knees and Obama is a dismal failure. To note his "accomplishments" would be like commending the performance of the ships's crew for providing a string quartet while the Titanic was sinking. Perhaps you have missed the big picture.

Republicans and Tea Party folk voted in more people in 2010 than any off-year election in history.

President Obama should get credit for that.

Changed the rule to allow students struggling to make college loan payments to refinance their loans (2009)

Um, they could ALWAYS refinance their loans

Authorized construction funds for high-speed, broadband Internet access in K-12 public schools (2009)

Our schools have had high speed access for over a decade

Commissioned a study to develop alternatives to “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” (2010)

This one actually came out of a court challenge and not originated by Obama

What a list of non stop bs and I cant believe people actually relink to this without being embarassed.

Well....he'll start running on and touting his vast list of accomplishments, right?

Can't wait for that to happen.
