Is Obama Keeping His Promises?

Get your fact RIGHT!!!!,This TRILLIONS of dollars of debt.is the payment of WARS that BUSH aint paid .YET.

You need to remember that when Clinton presided over the longest period of peace-time economic expansion in American history, which included a balanced budget and a reported federal surplus. Based on Congressional accounting rules, at the end of his presidency Clinton reported a surplus of $559 billion. After the Bush administration finished its eight years President Bush presided over a $2.5 trillion increase in the public debt through 2008. In December 2007, the United States entered the longest post-World War II recession, which included a housing market correction, a subprime mortgage crisis, soaring oil prices, and a declining dollar value. In September 2008, the crisis became much more serious beginning with the government takeover of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac followed by the collapse of Lehman Brothers and a federal bailout of American International Group for $85 billion. Many economists and world governments determined that the situation became the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression. In November 2008, over 500,000 jobs were lost, which marked the largest loss of jobs in the United States in 34 years. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that in the last four months of 2008, 1.9 million jobs were lost. By the end of 2008, the U.S. had lost a total of 2.6 million jobs

- All of which raises taxes and increases the size and scope of government.

You talk about the "tea-baggers" like they are some group of bigots. But wait - I forgot - if one disagrees with Obama - he/she is considered a "racist". And since the infamous Jimmy Carter espouses such viewpoints - it MUST be true.

Is it suddenly "un-American" to exercise our RIGHT to speak our mind and expect our politicians' decisions to reflect OUR opinions? For once...

Maybe people need to wake up to the fact that the silent majority is silent no more.

you forgot he was on letterman another jerk

You really are an idiot. You think the money spent today is actually worth the paper it's printed on? LMAO You wanna fight someone go to the MORGANS and the CHASES fight with those theives

So you like the idea of Repukes BS capitalism very much, they are not real capitalist,they're Daylight Robbers.Did ever occur to your brain how did bush able to vanish 350 billion within 7 days?If not sure,let me give you just a clue,A single handed man, 57 pro-life from Vermont ,who own a stockbrokering firm,representing Citibank for brokerage oil trading recently got his 100 million bonuses payment even for bankrupting the country.No body can stop this kind of daylight robbers recieves his payment becuase he;s already assured of guarantee payment bonuses ,no matter what happenening to country economy,,its all written before hand contract in black and white covering his payment just like a kind of any conspiracy.cover-up crime.So now ,i persummed you got it!

But when talks about 800 plus billion for senate floor debate ,the first time since 50 years .A 10 years health-care budget for ALL Americans,you said it's a socialist agenda? For heaven sake,If your grandma is still single ,as she can't get married ,please dont blame President Obama or you're out of work,.Let me tell you ,you're just the victim of your wrong doing.

You should ask Bush and the repigs yourself and how to dismissed 350 billion in 7 days,)one trillion in 8 years for stupid wars.President Obama should,pass a war tax fast and watch the repukes call for an end to the war in future.superfast.President obama does not have to lift a finger, pass the tax and watch the rats jump off the ship.
By the way did you know that How Many European,Chinese and others,around the world lost their Job too!!!!Because an Idiot like you voted only IDIOT

Dear garyharris -- better than being a lap dog for the likes of Sarah Palin.

Well and he has done it all by placeing a dept load so high as that my great great great grandson will sill be paying the interest on it when he is 50 years old. As far as unemployment (Ohio runs the same numbers add 2000 state jobs and unemlpoyment go's down.) LIKE I STATED as we tax everything and everyone our jobs will be gone. Why is it that a company from over seas recieves tax credits to come here . and with that advantage than puts a LIKE company here under with the price advantage.... ONLY IN AMERICA

Whre is this prson living. Certainly not in the US in these times. Just because you wish it happened doesn't make it happen. This guy like Rush says in man-chilld who knows nothing about governing and can't make a decision, We must impesch him before any ore damage IS dobe..

yes....and don't forget bankrupting the country and turning us into a socialist nation

And, Bush Jr. was spending and handing out money like it was going out of style as soon as he stepped into office. Good one!!

What J did was give you some facts and information. I know that Rush or Beck didn't tell you this information but it is fact.

LMAO. Redneck!! Your obliviously are mistaken, Yes I'm white, 56 year old male enlisted in the armed forces when I was 17, and served 6 yrs. I own and run a company and I'm self-educated. I also Didn't make it to the Eighth grade. I do not like war, I do not like ignorant redneck bible belt racist war whores. I do like the fact we have a concise president. I do like the fact I'm a realist, and not some two faced, follow the lord psychopath. My fight is not with Democrats or with the Republicans, It is in fact, a fight with the banking institution in this country and around the world. These are your enemies also! ???Why you ask???? Because they enslave us all! Including that great federal reserve bank. Get rid of the these whores and problem solved. The fed is an illegal institution...The IRS is an illegal institution...So before you try and berate me, better look in the mirror and ask yourself ???who am I really mad at, and what can I do???? The system of banking is designed to impoverish a nation who does not follow their rule. It wars when it wants to, it throws people in streets, it decides who lives and who dies; physically, Mentally and financially. The few dollars in your wallet are nothing more than an illusion. And you try to berate me, is an example of your own ignorance. Here; I will give you a web-site just copy and paste into your browser and if you have a few hours watch the video, Oh and try to focus. You may actually learn something, they could not teach you in school. This video is not an attack on a single group or people. It is an attack on what the populace has learned over the past 100 yrs or so. Hopefully this VIDEO will enlighten you. You will find the enemy right in your own wallet.

JRitcher - You are an idiot. HE hasn't "done" anything. The bankers are doing everything. The bankers have taken over, and you sir have taken the bait-hook,line, and sinker. All the bailouts will cost YOU and YOUR family billions for generations to come. Stop drinking their koolaid and wake up.

That's right, because if Obama hasn't helped you personally, then he hasn't helped ANYONE! We all live in this country. If the country improves then we all see a benefit. This mess wasn't created over night and it won't be fixed over night. The president is making decisions based on the advice of top economists. I trust that whatever decision they make is done after a lot of deliberation and consideration and is what they believe is in the best interest of the country as a whole.

"When he's not doing that he's playing golf and basketball"

CBS, who had blasted Bush for golfing too much, finally got around to noticing that Obama has played more games of golf in his first 8 months of office than Bush did in his first two years.

JRichter: What are you smoking? Do you really believe all that or are you paid to write that stuff? And the Nobel Peace Prize: Surely that was tongue-in-cheek. He was in office only days when he was nominated and 3 of the 5 Judges voted against him. It was all political so he'd keep 'giving' We the People's money. It's amazing that people actually believe what you wrote. But, then again, that's why we have a president with a Marxist agenda - because Kool-Aid drinkers voted for him because they believed his teleprompter.

which comments specifically by Beck, Rush and Coulter are lies?

So you realize that for every car on the Clunkers program that saved a consumer $4500, we as a people paid $26,000 for? Where did the other 21,500 go? This is what you call tax cuts? This is blind spending so people can secure their jobs, because we still have yet to pay for all this. Tax cuts for a few months to get bent over later is not a true cut.

"So what does your 22 points of questionable rhetoric have to do with JOBS! JOBS! JOBS!????"

Those 22 points are pointless and incorrect rhetoric. America is still losing a half million jobs a month! Obama had said unemployment wouldn't go over 9 percent, but said yesterday we will continue to lose jobs in the months to come. Unemployment is headed for over 10 percent and higher, with real unemployment (unemployment figures do not add in those whose unemployment benefits have run out but have not found a job) is at over 15 percent. He stated that if anyone had any ideas that would aid recovery, he would be glad to hear them.

What? He said all during the election that he had the answers. Obviously he doesn't if he's asking for help from the public.

Well said Vigilance (no sarcasm), sarinabgood has not been keeping up the times. The GOP has changed and a long with them the media. The DNC has always had a rainbow of political philosphies, with a majority LIberal rule. That has been declining, but the President must comprommise even with his own party on occasion.

"If he wants to do something, he can.. so why isn't he?"

If you really believe American Presidential power is this unlimited, no wonder the GOP is in trouble. No, the President does not have unlimited power. It would help if you learned that. It would have helped us all if Bush had, certainly.
