    And why?

    He has done so much damage and he is so wrong in so many ways.

    Shovel ready wasn't as shovel ready as we thought, he said in North Carolina. A Trillion dollars wasted, oh no matter, no big deal. Maybe we will try again and it will come out better next time.

    Bernanke just came out saying he is clueless as to why the recovery is so slow. He does not know why unemployment is still so high and the economy still struggles. Well, I know. Sarah Palin knows. Santorum, Cain, Pawlenty and Bachmann know. Bush knows. I'll bet that weird guy from New Mexico, Gary Johnson, even knows (I hope he doesn't win the nomination, he's a loser.) Anybody with any knowledge of economics and history knows that it's your stupid Quantitative Easing, you asshole!! STOP IT!!

    Why would anyone vote for this man in 2012?

    No i don't support Obama, i did for the first 3 weeks when he came into office.

    If was Bush was president now, and Obama last term, or it was Clinton now, and Obama and Bush before him, it wouldn't matter either way. The countries agenda would still be the same regardless and the same shit would have gone done. Iraq, Iran, 9/11, Afghanistan, Libya, the plans would follow out regardless.

    If Bernanke says he doesn't know why unemployment is why it is, but he is a economist and a chairman on the federal reserve board of the central bank, he is full of shit.

    If Sarah Palin knows you can bet he does. 5th graders know as much as that woman, maybe more.

    Of course they know, they helped create our fucking problems...

    Until yesterday it has always been either you or me, not enough for both. The basis of ALL economics is about scarcity. Economics is bullshit today. There is enough for everybody now! War, politics is all bullshit.

    Doesn't matter, i bet you he will get another 4 years in office. Presidents are trained years before they come into office, and i bet you his training was for 8.

    obama never had my support, especially since everybody mostly voted for him mostly on race and the fallible health care legislation....

    i'm going for ron paul next year, at least he's trying to legalize marijuana....
    but i wouldn't vote for him based solely on green legalization, if at the expense of my guns, or more wars, or higher fuel cost, or some bullshit.

    whether pot is legalized or not, if legalization is gonna affect my other rights, i'd rather take the chance of getting caught with it then getting caught with an illegal gun, or stolen gas, or tax evasion

    Hell No. This man is hell bent on changing this country to how he wants it...I've lived here in the US for 5 years from Japan..and i've come to realize how dangerous this fool is..never under estimate him and his moron administration and minions who voted for him...and he believes in socialism...and thinks the government should be the one's looking over our shoulders and making our decisions for us and to tell what's right and wrong..Psh..RIGHT. Obama is dreaming..but that's the way he thinks.

    I guess not. These forums are so liberal, I thought surely someone must still support him, but I haven't seen anyone showing support for him for ages. Has he alienated his liberal base as well as make conservatives hate his guts? YAY!! Thought it was funny, a friend of mine from school posted on his facebook page yesterday "We aren't going to see a president this great for a long time." What CRAP! I'm going now to see what he said about my response.

    INternet folk can't help it.

    Most people don't look at things 'how they are'

    they look at them how 'they personally' think they are/should be.

    The mastery of illusional. The president would be proud of the people falling for his horse shit. :hat:

    Emphasizing the conservative versus liberal divisions and keeping the population focused on phantom, domestic conflicts of interests is part of the deception ostensibly intended to keep our attention away from the bipartisan criminal organization that seems hell-bent on subjugating the middle class in one way or another. Saying that Obama intendeds to destroy the country presumes that he has any real authority to affect the real agenda when it's most likely that his power is limited to selling an agenda that was written into stone long before he took the oath of office.

    I figured that one out too just yesterday (here in Canada). Conservatives do their jobs in Politics for no reason other than finding (so often) a liberal agenda on the structure of, hey, "attempting to fool all of the people all of the time".

    Does anyone really think that anyone they vote for is really going to do anything to improve things other than to change the Veneer? The core is whats rotten, corrupt, falling apart, and has been for quite some time.

    No one will change that, they know the majority is too busy watching American Idol to notice.

    Welcome to National entropy. :cheers2:

    I never supported Obama and I lol every time he sells out his supporters. He's continued Bush's policies from day 1, even as he denounces Bush for everything that has gone wrong with this country.

    I knew this was going to happen even before he won the election, that's why I voted for a third party candidate who had no chance of winning.

    I still support him in the sense that I think that any Republican would have done much, much worse.

    Most of his failures have been due to Republicans' blocking most of the good things he has tried to do.

    I support him no matter what, he's doing a okay job, its not only him its the people surrounding him.

    Can you really think of another president to take his place? Thats the sad part.

    All American elections have been loser elections since Bush Sr.

    It's like trying to choose between a turd in the punch bowl or the Hershey squirts, whatever you pick is still a piece of shit.

    Just because McCain may have been worse, doesn't make Obama any less of a shifty-eyed con man. But some people are too narrow minded to understand that.

    i was actually referring to the state of office he was left. it doesn't matter who won the last election - the newly appointed president had a nigh on impossible task on his hands.

    but i imagine you are correct in regard to the candidacy selection available also. no politician in a position of power is likely there to do the public any favours.

    Let's see, most here think that the situation we're in now is all Obama's fault.

    Didn't Bush deny the US was in any trouble up until a couple of months before the elections and then say oops, sorry, the country is really on the verge of economic collapse and almost nobody has a job. Didn't McCain, at the beginning of his campaign, say the economy was all rosy and then later change his tune? Wasn't "Obama's" economic recovery package actually passed under Bush. Wasn't it Bush that spent almost a trillion dollars for his wars? Wasn't under Bush that the country was successfully attacked by terrorists? Wasn't under Bush that the "the Patriot Act", the largest removal personal rights, was passed?

    Wasn't this the country that Bush handed Obama? Are we to expect that over night Obama would change what Bush took 8 years to do to the US?

    Hasn't the free fall of the economy slowed and almost stopped under Obama? Haven't unemployment numbers slowed and employment numbers risen under Obama, not maybe as fast as you wanted but improved done the less?

    it's a fair assumption that society would always hold high expectations in respect of a countries leadership - why would anyone want any individual who is just okay at making big decisions that will ultimately affect their life?

    many men before him have made bold moves in times of trepidation, sometimes they work and sometimes they do not

    point is, they had tried. obama is pretty feeble.

    Hell FDR wouldn't have been able to get us out of the shithole we're in now.

    America's third highest export is scrap fucking metal! All our jobs went overseas during the Reagan years and we take in more than we put out.
