You are so negative...look around you...things aren't that bad. And no matter how much you want Obama to fail...things are slowly getting better.

Or maybe I just work within the system that is available to me. Maybe I don't cry about things that are not going to be changed. Maybe I don't play the victim card as many do on this site. Just maybe.
Are you kidding me?
That is all you have been doing on this thread, arguing, bitching and moaning.

So you want ANOTHER war....Iraq and Afganistan weren't enough for you...huh?
Let's send more US soldiers to die in a war they can not win....briliant.
And there is no doubt from even someone reading one of your posts that you hate Obama...but your hate goes to an unhealthy level of obsession.
You have ONE vote...use that vote in Nov. 2012...that is all you have. The rest of this ranting and crying will do nothing besides make you look desperate and frankly a little anti-american.
You might want to look at when those polls had been taken its 2011 now but nice try

And Sir, don't let your blind love of him keep you from seeing how incompentant of a POTUS he really is.
Amen to that brotha~ Never before in our history have many Americans been ashamed of what we got for a POTUS. Once again, just look at the approval ratings, or the lack there of!
Yes...let's look at those approval ratings.
Obama Approval Ratings
Obama is currently at a +5.3...with 49.4% approving and 44.1% disapproving.
Those are perfect numbers to get re-elected...and it will only get higher with a split congress...at this point Obama can't do anything alone...so he can't be seen as doing anything 100% wrong.
So what are your issues with the approval ratings??? I don't see them showing anything bad at all....certainly not to the point where "Never before in our history have many Americans been ashamed of what we got for a POTUS.".
But I guess propaganda works on some...and you seem to have bought it.

What's so frightening about these two is their lack of experience. Imaneedajob and Barry Soetoro, both in their forties and completely underqualified for their jobs. What would lead me to believe that these two guys have any idea what they're doing. One's a nut job who's biggest accomplishment so far is being mayor, and the other whos college papers, grades and theses' held from public scrutiny. All I hear is brilliant about Barry, but where's his report cards? An earlier poster had it right when he said he's ashamed that we've elected this moron. The single biggest eff-up ever! I can't wait 'til this arrogant commie's term is up.edit on 18-2-2011 by dillweed because: Spelling

the reality IMHO is that more people are finding out that Obama is not the devil, and it scares most folks. We lash out the hardest at who we fear, and a well-traveled man of color with an education is a scary thing.
One good thing Obama did - there was this nice $116 billion tax break for the mid-class that put about $15 to $30 per paycheck because the IRS quit withholding so much. No one "saw" this, but it was good, right, to have that bit extra in your hand, wasn't it? Link
He did another one, no one heard of it. Eat this, tax freaks, cause it was called Making Work Pay, and it gave $400 per single and $800 per married couple. It costs $600 billion over ten years, but the Republicans aren't pushing this tax cut in favor of their $700 billion to the wealthy, cause it doesn't benefit the corporate vampires who fund them. Ask Rand Paul.
Now, wrap your minds around this one, knuckledraggers! The tax cuts to 97% of Americans can cost $3 trillion over ten years, or you can cut taxes to the 3% wealthy and pay out $3.7 trillion over the same time frame. That's from the Tax Policy Institute Neither of these is funded, though, so in truth its still a hit, but that 7/10 fraction of a trillion is still $700 billion more that Obama's and it benefits less people.
Not one, not two, but three, three glorious things. Cheaper to do Obama's way, and you had more cash in your pocket.
