Title: Maybe we should shut down the military.

Seems like every time there is a single instance of foodstamps fraud or welfare fraud every Republican calls for the entire program to be cut.

I say lets shut down the entire military because of this.

Or maybe we should shut down the White House due to incompetence.

Do you remember the speech when Obama promised that Obamacare would be "cost neutral"? Current estimates put it in the TRILLIONS. And that was before the website mess. Does that sound cost neutral to you?

Do you remember the speech when Obama said “If you like your insurance plan you will keep it. No one will be able to take that away from you. It hasn’t happened yet. It won’t happen in the future. Period."

Do you remember the speech when Obama promised to have the "most transparent administration in history"? Ask Edward Snowden or Angela Merkel how that's going. Ask the people of Brazil or France how that's going.

Do you remember the speech when Obama promised to close Guantanamo his "first week in office"? How's that going?

Do you remember the speech when he promised not to have lobbyists in his Cabinet? That was before he filled his Cabinet with lobbyists.

Do you remember when he promised not to use Super PAC money? That was before he used more Super PAC money than any candidate in America history.

Do you remember the speech when Obama told us that he was unaware that the IRS was targeting Conservative groups? Anybody gullible enough to still buy that?

Do you remember the speech when he promised that the Stimulus would "create millions of shovel ready jobs"? I guess we're still waiting on those....?

Do you remember the speech when Obama promised to halve the deficit in his first term? How's that going?

Maybe it's time for the Obama sycophants to start thinking for themselves instead of letting Anderson Cooper and Jon Stewart do it for them.

Replace 'obama' with 'limbaugh', 'anderson cooper' with 'sean hannity' and 'jon stewart' with 'alex jones' in your last sentence and you have my opinion of you.

as to the rest of your points .. put up some links .. references .. proof or anything at all other than blind copy-paste assertions and we can discuss the merits of any part of that .. with context and in depth .. you never know .. maybe i even agree with a few of them

You know how funny it is when the Obama people start spouting Bush this and Bush that, like it's supposed to hurt my feelings. Fuck Bush, he was an idiot. Make no mistake though, Obama is much worse. Bush was just a moron, Obama is the enemy of America.

Actually, if you believe it or not. I don't watch any of those people in question. I do watch comedy central in the afternoon and sometime John Stewart and that other idiot before him are on after Tosh. Don't really watch or pay attention though. Political propaganda disguised and promoted as a comedy show for the brain dead masses. Pretty clever, I give them that.

Links? Really? Haha, why don't you just go down the list and spin, discount, and make excuses for all of the lies and deceptions of Obama and his people. If he was proven a total failure at everything in life, you guys still would never admit it.

you'll never know until you put up more than blind assertions ..

you can come on here and rage about obama  .. .. but in the end your argument is worth exactly what you've put into it .. which isn't much .. until we discuss what specifically you believe and why you believe it .. then we won't have a basis for even a superficial conversation on the topics.

i'm certainly not gonna engage in a 'yes he did' .. 'no he didn't' conversation with you

So now, "The Lies of Obama", which have been documented on audio and video are blind assertions? Interesting ;)

i'm certainly not gonna engage in a 'yes he did' .. 'no he didn't' conversation with you
Of course you're not. Since "yes he did" say and do all those things, there is no defense for his actions.  Although, I'm sure some will try, lol. Blind leading the blind.

More fun facts on Obama the Great

Obamanomics:
4.4% drop in household income.
2 mil. fewer jobs than 2007.
7.4% unemployed - twice that for minorities.
47 mil on food stamps & 16% in poverty - both records.
Huge Increase in Part time Jobs at the expense of full time jobs!
This is the Worst recovery since the Depression. From January 2009 to October 2013, more than 11 million people have dropped out of the labor force — from 80,507,000 to October’s 91,541,000. source B.L.S. (Bureau of labor statistics)

Not even close?

Bush: 25% (http://www.gallup.com/poll/116500/presidential-approval-ratings-george-bush.aspx), (3 times, most recently Nov. 2008)
Obama: 43% (http://www.gallup.com/poll/165833/obama-image-strong-decisive-leader-takes-hit.aspx), (Nov 7-10, 2013)

Why are you comparing to 2007, and not 2009 when he took office?  Hmmm.

i don't feel it's strange at all ..

pondwater wants to bash obama . .facts may not be on his side so he's got to manipulate his premises in order to make obama look bad .. not in the least strange when you have a pre-existing position and want to back it up

the problem with that is that now you have confirmation bias and you try to make the facts fit your narrative instead of making the narrative fit the facts

Honest mistake. I misquoted. The 39% percent he is at today is equal to Bush during the same of his

“President Obama’s job approval rating has fallen to the level of former President George W. Bush at the same period of his presidency,” Mr. Malloy added.

Republicans being worse? No he said that "The Obama people are less wrong", which is far from being right. It still means that the democrats are wrong.  What do you expect a far left economist to say. Krugman, Just like the majority of zombies here, he would never actually come out and say it is Obama's fault. The last sentence sums up the whole article. He said that the economic policy since Obama took office has been an astonishing, horrifying failure. Obama is the president, so therefore it's his responsibility. It's so funny that everything was Bush's fault during his presidency and democrats in congress during his presidency never come up. Now fast forward to Obama's presidency and nothing is his fault. It's all the fault of the Republicans in congress. Oh, and Bush who hasn't been president in 5 years and counting. Amazing how some people are "perfect" and others are the cause of all the worlds ills.

I honestly don't follow this and have only heard the name Paul Krugman but no nothing about him. I just hate the pure lying that goes on when you chop a sentence in half to try and prove your point when in fact it has the opposite reaction when you provide the full sentence. I'm in the middle of the road, it's just beyond annoying when you act like the news networks and pick and choose sound bites.

And that, consequently, the Republicans are more wrong (read: worse).

Quote

If you don't trust his word, why are you quoting him?  Either his opinion is credible, or it is not.

Quote

No, that isn't what he said.  Nice try.

He said, "U.S. economic policy since Lehman has been an astonishing, horrifying failure."  You may recall that Lehman Brothers filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy in September of 2008.  I leave it to the reader as to who was president at that time.

Furthermore, when conservatives like yourself swiftly distance themselves from the policies of the Bush administration (e.g. Cheney's "Reagan proved deficits don't matter"), that doesn't mean they agree that the policies of the Democrats would have been better.  Similarly, when Krugman says that the U.S. policy has been a failure since 2008, that doesn't mean he thinks McCain or Romney would have been better.  It means he thinks that Obama has only been less wrong than the alternative, but that he still believes Obama has not been right.

Angry? I think you're mistaken kid. You'll find the angry people avoiding the facts put in front of them and attacking me. Nothing gets to a democrat more than presenting them with facts that make their hero Obama look like the lying POS that he is. It seems that they ran off or neutered all of the republican/conservative members of this site. The ones that are left are so outnumbered that they are either scared to say anything or don't feel like being called names or ridiculed. So you see, I'm far from angry or mad. I actually feel sorry for democrats for having so much emotion with no substance or integrity to back it up. They have my pity, they're going to reap just what they sow.
