According to the St. Petersburg Times:

Promises Kept = 91
Compromise = 33
Broken = 15
Stalled = 87
In The Works = 275

So 124 kept to 15 Broken

Not bad for year 1.

Thank you. And dare I ask, as a brilliant man, do you have any books you recommend to aspiring thinkers?

Thank you. And God Bless You.

There is no debating this lying bum. It's all lies. Bald faced lies that his sheep obviously suck up. You need more than a book if you buy this bologna, you need some mental health care.

He has often sounded like a moderate Democrat. But many sound like something they arent when they are in politics..

I was listening to NPR maybe a week ago & they did a study like that. They said pretty much the same thing so, so far he's got not a bad track record.

Wow, loving it....this guy really inspires me to put the partisan axe away.

It's too bad our congressmen and women aren't as level headed and pragmatic.

This supposed State of the Union is more like a campaign speech for the Dem's. Blech!

You know why.

Wow!

91 easy ones kept and 15 major and important ones that were broken.

What a record.

Any one can make a promise on easy things, but it takes someone great to keep the very most important ones.

That he has failed at.

It is not the numbers, it is the QUALITY of those promises that matter.
