I know it will do no good because y'all are have had the facts all along and nothing has impacted you BUT the only way for evil to triumph and all of that....

That is a good thing....it is better to be respected more than less...

Spiritually we are bankrupt


Rigghhhhttttttt....

Morally we are bankrupt. We have catered to the criminals and the special interest groups to the point we're our collective souls as a country are damn near in ruin.


Riiiggghhhhtttttt....

Socially we are divided like never before.


Not even close....just 50 some odd years ago only white men were considered full citizens...it is hard to be "divided" when white men hold ALL of the power and women and minorities are treated like second class citizens...

quote:

Militarily we are weaker than at any time since the Carter years ... and that's saying something considering how far we fell under Slick Willy.



Slick Willy's military defeated the 5th largets military in the world in a matter of days..slick Willy's military was a lean mean fighting machine cleansed and purged of dead weight. Obama's military has been at war for 14 years....it is not possible for it NOT to be weakened...to expect otherwise is fricking idiotic...en and equipment get used and worn out...

Obama's Economy

(These are the latest figures released as of tonight in the wake of the Fed's rate hike and the glowing remarks from Yellen with regard to how well Obama has handled things from a financial perspective.)
Census Bureau, BLS, Treasury Department, CBO

- Lowest labor participation rates since the 1970s.
- Almost 95 million working age, able bodied, Americans out of the labor force.
- Worst recovery since the 1940s
- Lowest home ownership rate since the 1950s.
- Almost 13 million MORE Americans on food stamps than when Obama was sworn into office.
- Over 43 million Americans living in poverty - the most since the Great Depression.
- 1 in 5 families existing without at least one member of working age in the workforce.
- 1 in 6 men ages 18-34 are either incarcerated or not in the work force. (many cannot find jobs, are college educated, and living with their parents)
- 2-5 men ages 50-62 who are eligible and able to work unable to find gainful employment. Including the highest rate of unemployed white males from that age group in the history of this country.
- accumulated more debt for this country in eight years than all other presidents in our history combined. And that figure, due to his lingering policies, is expected to double in the next ten years.

Did Obama do anything, anything, good for this country?




Considering where he started and the fact that the GOP was all about party unity and the country be damned the economy is BOOMING along...imagine where we would have been with a Trump contingency in the GOP 8 years ago...a tax cutting and increased spending contingency the likes of which the GOP hasn't elected since Ronald Reagan...if the GOP 8 years ago had of had Reagan's penchant for spending money like a drunken sailor we would have to be begging folks from Mexico to come work in the US not talking about rounding them up and sending them home.

The GOP did a FANTASTIC job of achieving its goals that were set when Obama was elected...they have prevented the economy from recovering like it could have done had there been enough Reaganesque Republicans in congress...despite this Obama has done a pretty good job...

What prevention? Obama passed a trillion dollar plus stimulus and Obamacare. He passed thousand of new regulations every year plus attacked industry at every corner giving us the worst "recovery" ever in our history and you call that a good job? He's added 10 trillion in 8 years to our best and you still going to say he was prevented and did a good job?

If you showed presidential speeches and accomplishments and made people on this board rate them without looking at the name or picture of the president they were attached with, they would be much kinder to him.

Shows that the results are that much worse than they appear on paper.

This was a layup for Obama. He just didn't need to frick things up and stay out of the economy's way and it would have had a better recovery than what occurred. He certainly could have pursued pro-groth policies, and actually used the $800 billion "stimulus" for actual stimulus. The fact that we have the shitty results we have is a testament to just how much of a frickup Obama truly was.

then you say this

So what is it? Is the economy "booming" or failing? Has Obama created billions of jobs, or has the mean ole republicans stopped him from creating jobs?

Let's also not forget Obama making himself, and you look like colossal jackasses a couple months ago.

quote:

Rewind to June, when Obama derided Trump for promising to bring jobs back to America by keeping companies like…uh…Carrier from taking production plants south of the border. “Well, how exactly are you going to do that? What exactly are you going to do? There’s no answer to it,” taunted Obama. “He just says, ‘Well, I’m going to negotiate a better deal.’ Well, what, how exactly are you going to negotiate that? What magic wand do you have? And usually the answer is, he doesn’t have an answer,” insisted the incredulous president.


I guess Trump really does have a magic wand. So sad for you progs...
