His economic plan involves government dependence and welfare.



Nonsense. Obama has had numerous scandals (the VA mess, "If you like your plan, you can keep your plan...", Fast & Furious, Benghazi, the IRS, et al). His reputation is one of a pathological liar. Where exactly have you been?



When the Democrats were in charge, they just sat there mostly, even though they managed to get Obamacare passed two years in. After the Republicans took hold of Congress once again, they failed to stand up to Obama and his pathetic policies and plans. They were supposed to oppose him. That's not obstruction; that's common sense.



Fortune Magazine is a business publication first, but you can tell by the article that it is very left-leaning. They want us to believe that people are "falling in love" with Barry, but the truth is, he is not held in high regard by many folks. When a guy in office cannot bring himself to identify the enemy of our land (Radical Islam) and then go celebrate while our allies burn in ruin, you know you've got a kook in charge. He may come across to some as a "good orator" or "the guy next door", but underneath that exterior is a very evil man. To me, he is nothing but an angry community organizer and a loser who hasn't gotten his way. He is using the presidency to get a big chip off his shoulder, and it appears he's done that. And his departure will not nearly come soon enough.

Lots of emotion, very few facts, and lacking in logic. I'll give it a three.

The standout words in your post are middle east and isis. I'm not sure what you want obama to do at this point. We wouldn't even be in this situation if we hadn't gone to war with iraq

Don't take it up with me, take it up with those much more knowledgable than me on the topic who are his critics.
He's no dummy, he knew what he was getting into. Yet he took it. And now we have the results.

But I do take it up with you because you posted it.

As for the teleprompter comment, that's original. Never heard that criticism before.



The real incomes of working Americans has declined sharply because Bill sold us out to Wall Street.

Plus, people watching the farce of a Republican primary are obviously even more approving of the president in comparison to what furball the right is hacking up.

Funny, since many folks on here were predicting how his numbers would be just as bad as Bush's 27% approval rating as he left office. I guess when reality doesn't bend your way it's best to deny reality. Many on the right have become quite good at that.

Given the similar/identical policies of both, you must of loved Bush too!

Blame Bill? It takes more then a president.
Conservatives in congress have been selling out America to wall street, since day one, back when they were democrats.

Watching Obama on TV about Cuba, the bombings, the Supreme Court, you can't help but make the comparison with the circus and the shame that is the Republican campaign and its candidates acting far more childish than presidential. One gets an appreciation for what we have versus what we are about to get.
