Please explain? How about this. He has moved through congress in record breaking speed the Reinvest in America Bill, I think within 20 or 25 days in office. He signed into Law the S-Chip, Reversing Bushies Policy on Embryonic Stem Cell Research, he has federal land off limits to Big Oil, I think either Utah or Nevada where the States Salazar took away from Big Oil. He has moved to shut down Gitmo Bay, asked his military commanders a time line that could be met to get the troops out of Iraq. Those are just a few that I can recall off the cuff. Yep, Obama has been a busy man.
you can add these to the list...
Civil Rights
Jan. 29 2009 - Obama signs the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act. Reducing discrimination based on gender, age, religion, or race.
Environmental
Feb. 21 2009 - Obama signs a mercury reduction pact with 140 other nations. The policy reverses roles with George Bush and sets mandatory requirements by the United States.

Thanks and I am sure there is more. No doubt that he has been super busy. That's why the Repubs have been crying foul. They think Obama is trying to do too much. I think they are just used to their ways of doing nothing at all.
Doubtfull. Obama will be toast by 2010. He's headed in that direction after only 50+ days. He's an idiot. Totally incompetent.
No, what's incompetent is your ability to assess the situation. He hasn't fixed the economy yet in his first 50 days, so...that means he's incompetent? Obama's vocabulary blows Bush's kindergarten-level language skills into the stratosphere. But forget that. It's all about the economy. They say conservatives wear blinders and I see how true that is now.
So far he's undone much of those pesky little things the Bush administration tried to get away with. I like what he's doing on those things. No more enemy combatants, no more torture (though I'm holding my breath until I see proof). He just added the US's signature to a document calling for an end to nations making homosexuality illegal. He's moving forward on the environment.
Don't get me wrong: I didn't vote for him and I won't in 2012. But compared to his predecessor, the air is worth breathing again. Oh, and I don't expect him to "fix" the economy. It's being deliberately destroyed by the puppetmasters. So all this complaining is for naught. Start thinking about the future and how you will create your own.
A poll released (http://politicalwire.com/archives/2009/03/18/obama_would_crush_palin.html - broken link) by Public Policy Polling found that President Obama would crush Sarah Palin in a hypothetical, head-to-head presidential election for 2012.
Gee, that's a shocker
we'll check back in 2 years when taxes are at record levels and unemployment is at 20%.
Obama acomplished more in his first 100 days than Bush did in 8 years (unless you count the pain, torture, and the almost distruction of our economy). I think Obama deservres repect for coming into office after that nighhtmare. Give credit where credit is due, no one can undo 8 years worth of screw ups over night.
This is why people become Democrats, because they have no clue what they are talking about.
Obama hasn't done anything right, yet, and people are beginning to see. His rating are droping rapidly as she quickly destroys out country. He spent more money in fifty days athn all presidents before him in eight years... You're backing a loser, give it up...! He can't make a speech without saying it isn't his mess... That really means, when I F##k the place up, don't blame me, I wasn't my mess.
A real man.. Real convictions, real change.. What a joke..
I had hope for him, but the more I see the phony, the more I dislike him. An empty suit...

Yep he sure did! He emptied the treasury, lied to the amercian people, spent more in those short days than anyone in history, shall I go on? Yes he gets respect for coming after a nightmare and creating another!
Oh yeah, let's release some of the "man made catastrophe" people from Gitmo into the U.S.!!!
Yeppers, good job Brownie (ooops wrong person...) Pres. Obama!

People still think that Barry handing out free money is a good thing. Give it a couple years.
