re: Is Obama pretty much a Bush 2.0

The truth is Obama had an opportunity to transcend this country on another path which united us. I think he would have always had loyal opposition but there were deals to be made on taxes, entitlement reform, and social issues of our day. The African Anerican community saw wages stagnate and unemployment soar. Latinos were used as a political pawn by the President.

The President used his political capital to cater to environmentalist, unions and passed a healthcare bill that's simply embarassing to progressives and liberals. It's a blank check to insurance companies for gods sakes! Then you have the people that drive us into the recession still in power and Justice never served to them. We learned the ideals of a high functioning federal government for the people is more inefficient than imaginable. The IRS, VA, EPA, NASA, DHS, etc have all been inefficient and steered in the wrong directions.

We have never seen race relations this bad since the 70's. Personal responsibility is dead and so is the middle class. Gay Marriage was an issue he evolved into and was pushed there by Biden so let's not give him too much credit. Our borders are a joke and enforcement has placed us in a very dangerous situation with terrorist looking to exploit us.

The same foreign policy has been cast but only after realizing kissing the worlds arse and talking down America doesn't give you respect. He found out fast that in the absence of US leadership the other world countries such as Russia and China are more than willing to fill the vacuum. Obama was not ready to be president and will always be regarded as an amateur. Complaining and blaming makes you a loser & nobody wants a president that doesn't lead. His latest is throwing the Intel community under the bus because ISIS was more of a threat than he realized.

Pathetic
