Let's see, well you have a point. Amazing we didn't enter a Depression isn't it?

What to talk about, let's see. We can talk about how Obama killed Bin Laden.
He can talk about he helped advance woman's rights in the workplace. He can talk about passing the Hate Crimes bill. He can then move to discussing how he helped overhaul the credit card industry, saving consumers money is unfair fees and practices. Then he should hit on how he ended the Iraq war and began to wind down the war in Afghanistan. I'm sure he'll talk about how the decision to help and turn the American auto industry was the right choice. He can talk about the repeal of DADT. How he kicked banks out of the Federal Student Loan business (thieves) and expanded Pell Grants. He can talk about how he expanded CHIPS health insurance for kids...............

Romeny can talk about Bain and how his state was 47 out of 50 in job creation when the economy was healthy.

Dont expect an answer. All the unprecendented things never get an answer.

I just clicked on the link and read it. Interesting that it begins

"The Tea Party movement spontaneously formed in 2009 from the reaction of the American people to fiscally irresponsible actions of the federal government, misguided “stimulus” spending, bailouts and takeovers of private industry."

So it wasn't until 2009 that the government began to spend taxpayer dollars recklessly? You mean Obama began the 2 unpaid for wars in Afghanistan and Iraq? Obama signed into law the unpaid for Medicare Modernization Act of 2003 that is costing taxpayers billions? Did Obama ask Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac for $440 billion dollars so low income people, specifically minorities, could purchase homes they otherwise could not afford? Did he ask the lenders to relax the qualifications for people with lousy credit? Did Obama ask Congress to use taxpayer dollars to cover these downpayments? Which President raised the debt ceiling 18 times? Obama?

No, so how do you explain that this group formed in 2009?

He killed bin laden or did you mean seal team 6? As far as the rest of your list, if this is the best the dems can do, he's done. Even people in his own party(Corey booker, and the gov of mass) called him out about Bain capital. Telling him to shut up, Bain has been good for their states.

White men killing Black people for standing up for their rights is an inconvenient truth for racists. How dare you mention things like that?

I'm sorry, but you know what I meant. Jeez. President Obama, our Commander in Chief, gave the ORDERS to make the kill.

You keep thinking he's done. Go ahead...do just that.

He can't defend his so-called fight with the Teaparty and that is why he won't read it. You'd think he would at least post what his problem is with them backed up by a viable link to prove his points. Probably just another liberal who picks out a couple of radicals in the group and uses them as an example of how the majority views things. There are radicals in every group but I don't use them as an example of how the majority feels.
