the Big Mattress - Freeform Interactive Radio on the Net: The Worst President (except for 90 or so accomplishments..) (http://www.bigmattress.com/mt-archives/2010/04/the_worst_presi.html - broken link)
1.. Ordered all federal agencies to undertake a study and make recommendations for ways to cut spending
2. Ordered a review of all federal operations to identify and cut wasteful spending and practices
90. Has announced his intention to push for education reform
Oh, and he built a swing set for the girls outside the Oval Office
He did all that and the second he can't get something done he blames Republicans for blocking him. What a baby.

Most of that is AGAIN ST the best interest of this Nation, like the phasing out of the NEWEST WAR PLANE THE F-22!!!! What kind of an idiot would think that was ok? Remember, The Constitution? government is supposed to be for our military! not bs socialistic/commie programs. there is no reason to have our taxes over 6 percent of income for anyone!

The F-22 was a plane without a mission. It cost twice as much as the F-35, which is a much more flexible aircraft.
It was a pointless program and it had been on the chopping block for some time. Secretary of Defense Gates and General Cartwright of the Joint Chiefs called for its termination. Obama just put it out of its misery.

You mean the F-22 with major cost overruns that was deemed as ineffective in which quite a few Republicans voted in favor of phasing out including the 2008 GOP Presidential nominee John McCain and your current Senator Kid Bond (as well as quite a few others). Oh and not only did McCain vote for phasing it out, but he was a co-sponsor of the Amendment phasing it out. Is that the one you mean??
By the way considering how much military spending is, even if the government only spent on the Military and didn't spend a dime on anything else (not roads, not schools, nothing) you would still need taxes of more than 6%....
I'll bite. I think the college loan reform he signed was a good move. The payoffs for banks to basically service loans that were backed by the federal government anyway was a waste of money and free up billions.
So there's one.
No kidding. That alone was worth it. Kids in college won't be paying almost 30% interest.
Many economists regard the bank bailout decision as a success, an unexpected 14% return on the investment, and it very well could have prevented the final nosedive down into another Great Depression.
Does that count?
Not to a right-winger.
