Re: Do you think Obama is doing a good job as presideent?

I'm willing to admit I had great expectations from Obama in the first couple years but that faded quickly into pure disappointment.
I did not vote him but gave him a chance thinking he would do something when he had control of both the House and Senate, which he failed miserably.

He had a veto proof 60 vote majority in the Senate for 6 weeks only. That's a pretty short time to call a failure

That was an 0bama gnat trained by 0bama, it fools everybody.

Thank you, Nimby loves to throw **** up against the wall and hope something sticks.

OMG. Irony redefined.
 
Re: Do you think Obama is doing a good job as presideent?

Don't we have basically this exact same poll about every third day?

Obama is OK at some things, bad at other things and deplorable at still other things.

Yes. It's getting on my last nerve. The answer hasn't changed since two days ago when this same exact question was asked. Oh, and I'll bet another poster will come along in a few days and ask again. :roll:

Yes dear, I hung in there for 2 years only to find out he was nothing but empty words.

do you ever take into account the difficulties and complexities involved in passing legislation in the house and senate?

Why yes I do, the house passes the bills they get to Harry Reid -

Currently Reid has 350 bills waiting to be brought to the floor to be voted on, up or down.

and how many of these bills contain provisions that are completely unacceptable to democrats and if they were voted down would be used by republicans to campaign against the obama administration and the democrats in the senate.

besides, bringing them to floor would require other procedures such as adding and/or removing language from the house bills that is disagreeable to the democrats and would then be sent back to the house where it would be rejected by the house.
 
Please be honest with your choice.

Barring catastrophe in the next two years, history will be very kind to President Obama indeed. And as I've said before, the only thing standing between Obama's current status and a nationwide call for his face to be added to Mt. Rushmore is the fact that he has a (D) behind his name instead of an (R).

Wouldn't surprise me.
 
Re: Do you think Obama is doing a good job as presideent?

That is true and most of their investments are in low yield CDs because they can't afford to speculate with high yield ones..........Sadly I have friends who did just that and lost everything when the market crashed a few years ago.

I lost nearly 60,000 on my 401k.. it recovered quite nicely.
 
Re: Do you think Obama is doing a good job as presideent?

You mean 6 to 10 years don't you? There is no candidate that can beat her.

Dream on my left wing friend. She might thrash her useless dem opponents in the primaryies but the Repub candidates are another matter.
 
Re: Do you think Obama is doing a good job as presideent?

Nope he has beena lousy president. While he inheritated some problems from Bush he has since owned those problems and either continued them or made them worse. Then you have his own problems with Obamacare, foreign policy, and the EPA that he has directed and you have a mess.

I do think there are some things he has done well like the repeal of DODT and becoming a speaker against DOMA. Whether it is political or not, I applaud his actions in support of those to ensure equality for same sex couples. However, all those hardly make him a great or even a good president overall IMO.

Totally agree and give him credit for bin Laden; otherwise he sucks dog****.
 
Re: Do you think Obama is doing a good job as presideent?

He is doing a terrible job, IMO.

But still ever so slightly better then George W. Bush did.

Retired people on a fixed income can not afford to speculate with their savings.

How about giving the Navy Seals the credit for taking Bin Laden out. Because he took a victory lap a lot of them died.

That goes without saying, you think I don't know that? Come on!

So.. don't allow him any credit but assign him all the blame? I get it now..

These 350 bills have been passed by the House and deserved a vote. Period.
That's what the American people expect, not Reid blocking legislation from moving forward.

Exactly, that is how Congress works and if the Senate approves the bill it's passed on to the President.

and would then be sent back to the house where it would be rejected by the house.

How do you know that? Many bills have been sent back only to be amended, fine-tuned and sent back again. How do you think we make laws, but nothing gets done if Reid won't start the process of putting bills on the floor for a vote.

Why isn't Obama putting any pressure on Reid to do his job?

How many times would you like the Senate to vote on the House's over 50 bills to repeal Obamacare?
Not to mention that the number of 350 you quote is nearly twice as many as what the real number is.
How many of those 200 bills were free of poison pills and legislative riders, the reason the government shut down last October?

Explain why the House refused to go to conference committee 18 times last year--that's the answer to your deflection
 
Re: Do you think Obama is doing a good job as presideent?

How many times does the President have to give the Navy Seals credit before it gets through your thick heads?
You choose not to listen--another poor choice of the extreme wight .
That goes without saying, you think I don't know that? Come on!
