That's part of the reason why Obama won, they didn't use aging actors at their convention, they had respected leaders like Bill Clinton.

Obama said that he would reduce earmarks by veto if necessary back to 1994 levels. Not only has there not been a reduction, they increased while his party controlled both houses of congress.

PolitiFact | The Obameter: Reduce earmarks to 1994 levels

I contend that if his supporters held him accountable for his words and actions he would have been able to reduce earmarks, by veto if necessary - not increase them.

He's just merely occupying space in the White House, getting free rides in Air Force One, living the high life, and playing all the golf he wants.

The presidency is supposed to be a job. A big job!
Eastwood is not a follower that is for sure. The others are just fitting in and following the celebrity crowd.

Obama's followers are still living on Hope. They won't hold him accountable.

Obama tried promoting the Benghazi attacks were because of the video. And where was Obama while we were being attacked by Al-Quaeda. Osama Bin Laden is dead and Al-Quaeda is on the run.

The Obama White House said that it had "no knowledge of any attempt by the Justice Department to seek phone records of the AP

Indeed. Clint was right.

Either we have the most corrupt, or most incompetent president in US history.

Liberals- take your pick.

You always know someone has done a good job by the attacks they get afterward, and attacked he was. I wonder if he got audited by the IRS. . . . . .

It appears Obama and his administration are corrupt and incompetent at the same time. A double whammy that spells trouble for the nation. The corruption in Obama-Land is the selective use of government power to reward friends and punish opponents. Or, as the president calls them, enemies.

Political allies – think Solyndra and unions – get special goodies, while those who oppose the regime’s agenda are demonized and singled out for scrutiny.

Maybe the AP case made the media realize they were not exempt from Obama’s overreach. With about 3 1/2 years to go in the reign of the Great Mistake, the gods are not done punishing the American people. After all he made a case to vote... vote... vote for revenge. But we forgot to ask for whom do we want revenge.

Obama Administration is Corrupt, Incompetent, and Dangerous
