Re: What has Obama done well?

one thing Obama has done very well, is to claim crisis at every political opportunity. This is a known political tactic, and not necessarily a slam. By focusing on the "current crisis"(real or created) he can push his agenda through, and by using items that he knows are hot button, he can get momentum on his side. I do think this sets him up for trouble if a true crisis raises up.

Overall, he has pushed his agenda about as well as a President with the majority in both houses could. I am amazed he hasn't gotten his way with health care, but I am not complaining either.

If anything that would be looked as breaking their customs and kind of disgracing her.

Re: What has Obama done well?

OK, so no one has seen his BC and they are unwilling to produce one. So now I'm up to speed or am I missing something?

Yea, but why is the certificate number blacked out. They are hiding something. If you look at the fine print on the bottom it says this will serve as proff in court but this is not a court. I demand a recount. By the way SS anybody (except me) with computers now days can make one of those things up.

Fine. I give up. Look, Obama has done some good things (already outlined) and he's broken promises (outlined as well), but that's to be expected. Politicians always make promises they can't keep when campaigning. Whether it's not kept through their own fault or reasons beyond their control, campaign promises are impossible to keep 100% of the time.

But this whole Obama hates America because there is allegedly no proof he was born in the United States is among the dumbest of the litany of dumb political posts here. That a Redskins fan would think that makes me both embarrassed to be a Redskins fan and a registered Republican.

I blame only myself for even participating in such a stupid discussion

he dislikes america because of the people who influenced him as a child and growing to be an adult. i don't think his resoning for his hatred is based soley on him not being born here.

Come on SS you cannot read this post of mine and not know I was joking. As I said several post before this one I have not followed the issue of his BC and that would probably indicate that I really don't care. Even if it was proven that Obama was not born in the US we would just get his side kick Biden and wouldn't that then make speaker of the house NP VP.

My post you replied to:
