40 Reasons Not To Re-Elect Barack Obama

I bet NO ONE could give me 1 good reason for voting for Romney...the same people pay for Obama and Romney's campaigns they belong to the same corporations so whoever gets elected out of those 2 it matters nothing to me.

He's a moderate, he's a proven leader, he's smart, he can (and has) worked across the aisle, he chose Ryan who leans conservative (although his record includes yay votes for big gov't spending so he is not as conservative as he is being presented, imo) who is also a proven leader who also can (and has) worked across the aisle and he's smart as all get out. Both these guys understand how the economy works and we need leaders like that right now.

Most importantly? R & R do not want to 'fundamentally change America'. Obama does.
Zoom-Boing, I've seen a lot of posters gang up on one side or the other, but it's getting hard to find a poster who is so balanced he can appreciate someone who truthfully works across the aisles. Romney will, but the reason I like him is while he did, if there was something he saw that was truly fiscally bad in his state of Massachusetts, he would veto it, even though he knew he would be overridden in his state by those across the aisle and to the left. He took his licks from the press for it, but he kept on doing what he felt was the right thing to do--hold down spending, using his veto as a message to others to stop the spending.

We haven't seen any movement of this administration to do more than speak dictation to the other side of the aisle and not work together with it, all the while gauging the press to join in the "Booooooosh' fault" line.

Because you're one of few posters here who really does not carry favoritism of any party or person very far, and for renewing a reminder to all about the importance of fellowship between the two aisles, I'm dubbing your post "best of season" and am bookmarking it with thanks for your calming and sage perspective in what is otherwise the silly season of an election year.


Thanks for the lovely words and thought, Becki. Don't know about the sage part ... just good old common sense. :redface:

So many of the posts on here are so very one-sided. The Rs are awful, the Ds are awful, each side is right and the other side is wrong. It gets old I don't respond to most of it. Then there are the ridiculous posters. :rolleyes: Why is balance so hard for people to understand?

None of this bickering is working. It can't be all-or-nothing, we - and D.C. - have got to get off that pony. It really boggles my mind that these grown-ups we've elected can't find common ground and work from there. I never paid attention to politics until the past few years but I don't remember the sides being so divided in the past. Were they? Or did they work together for the good of everyone? I blame Obama for this great divide. He is the president of the United States of America and he acts like a petulant four year old if he doesn't get his way. He has NOT drawn us together, he has divided us further than ever. He does not lead by example and his words are cheap. R&R have BOTH had to work across the aisle and both have done so successfully. Are they perfect? Not by a long shot. But together they form a strong team that will work with everyone and they will be able to reach compromises that will hopefully set the wheels in motion to straighten out and put the brakes on the downward spiral we're in. THAT'S the #1 priority. Obama doesn't have the skill set to do the job and people who can't do the job need to be fired.
 
1) Obama took 700 billion dollars out of the Medicare program and put it into his wildly unpopular health care program. This is despite the fact that even Obama has admitted,


Medicare in particular will run out of money, and we will not be able to sustain that program no matter how much taxes go up.

Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan will put that money back into the Medicare program where it belongs, while Obama won't.

2) Barack Obama's stimulus plan cost more than the Marshall Plan, the Louisiana Purchase, and putting a man on the moon — combined and it was a complete and utter failure -- more than 800 billion dollars that accomplished nothing of significance.

3) If Barack Obama is re-elected, Obamacare will go into effect in 2014. This will lead to huge doctor shortages, exploding health care costs, companies dropping insurance, death panels, much longer waits to see a doctor, and a dramatic deterioration in the quality of American medical care.

4) Do you believe that your taxes should go up in the next four years? Well, Barack Obama does,


"Nobody’s looking to raise taxes right now. We’re talking about potentially 2013 and the out years." — Barack Obama

5) Even the left-wingers at Politifact admit that Obama broke his promise to cut the deficit in half by the end of his first term.

6) America lost its AAA credit rating for the first time since 1917 on Obama's watch.

7) Even though Barack Obama keeps blaming do-nothing Republicans for his myriad of failures, the Republicans in the House have passed multiple budgets while Barack Obama and the Democrats in the Senate haven't pushed a budget through in the last three years. That's a big deal because passing a budget is one of the most basic duties of Congress. A Congress that can't pass a budget is like a mechanic who can't handle an oil change.

8) Barack Obama called George Bush "unpatriotic" for adding so much to the debt. Yet, Obama added more debt in 3 years and 2 months than Bush did in both terms.

9) "Do you think it’s okay for Barack Obama’s campaign contributors at Solyndra to receive a 535 million dollar government loan, approved by one of Obama’s fundraisers, even though it was known that the company was in trouble and there was an excellent chance it wouldn’t be able to pay back the loan?"

10) Barack Obama is touting his interference on behalf of his union cronies at General Motors and Chevrolet as a big "success." The cost of that "success" for the taxpayers? 25 billion dollars.

11) Obama selected Tim Geithner, a man who was a tax cheat, to be his Treasury Secretary. That's bad enough, but then Obama spent his whole first term lobbying for tax increases and accusing other people of being greedy for wanting to keep more of their own money. When even the Treasury Secretary refuses to willingly pay all of his taxes, maybe the problem is that you're spending too much, not taxing the American people too little.

12) Under the "Cash for Clunkers" program, Obama spent 3 billion so he could buy and destroy perfectly functional cars. This was mind-numbingly stupid, but it was supposed to at least cause a major spike in auto sales and improve gas efficiency. The program is now almost universally recognized as a failure on every count.

13) Barack Obama put an end to NASA's manned space flight. In other words, because of Obama we no longer even have the same capabilities that we had in 1969. Meanwhile, NASA Administrator Charles Bolden says the "foremost" mission of NASA is now Muslim outreach. Yes, really.

14) Despite the fact that Obama had a disastrous first term, he hasn't even put forth a second term agenda. After one of the worst four year runs of any President in American history, Obama's message to the voters is, "Trust my judgment when it comes to deciding what we'll do differently."

15) "If you’ve been successful, you didn’t get there on your own. You didn’t get there on your own. I’m always struck by people who think, ‘Well, it must be ’cause I was just so smart.’ There are a lot of smart people out there. ‘It must be because I worked harder than everybody else.’ Let me tell you something: If you’ve got a business, that–you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen.” -- Barack Obama

16) After BP had a massive oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, Obama exacerbated the crisis and dramatically slowed down the clean-up with his incompetent handling of the whole affair. Obama performed so poorly that even James Carville and Chris Matthews were publicly criticizing him.

17) "No, no. I have been practicing…I bowled a 129. It’s like — it was like Special Olympics, or something." — Barack Obama. Classy!

18) We were told that George W. Bush was a cowboy who was making the world hate us. Yet, as Chuck Norris notes,


The Washington Times reports that, according to a poll by even two left-leaning groups, “A majority of Americans say the United States is less respected in the world than two years ago and believe President Obama and other Democrats fall short of Republicans on the issue of national security.”

In February 2012, Gallup reported that “Americans continue to express much greater dissatisfaction than satisfaction with the United States’ position in the world, and their views have improved little since hitting a low point in 2008.”


19) "But I don’t want the folks who created the mess to do a lot of talking. I want them to get out of the way so we can clean up the mess. I don’t mind cleaning up after them, but don’t do a lot of talking." — Barack Obama. In 2008, Barack Obama ran as a moderate, bipartisan reformer who was going to change the tone in Washington. He has governed as a hyper-partisan, arrogant, divisive, polar opposite of the man he pretended to be in 2008.

20) Although liberals and conservatives disagree on who's to blame for Obama's poor performance as President, there seems to be general agreement that he hasn't done very well. Of course, you can't tell Obama that.



Oprah: What grade would you give yourself, for this year?

Obama: Um, good solid B+

…Oprah: So B+, what could you have done better?

Obama: Well B+ because of the things that are undone. Health care is not yet signed. If I get health care passed we tip into A minus.



21) Despite claiming to be in favor of traditional marriage to get elected, Barack Obama betrayed Christians by coming out in favor of gay marriage.

22) The First Amendment rights of the Catholic Church are being violated under Obamacare. Despite its long recognized religious opposition to contraceptives and abortifacients, Obama is demanding that Catholic hospitals go against their faith to remain open. Every last Catholic bishop in the United States opposes Obama's anti-Christian policy and it will likely lead to numerous Catholic hospitals shutting down if Obama is re-elected.

23) Barack Obama despicably played the race card by telling Hispanic Americans that Republicans were their "enemies."


And if Latinos sit out the election instead of saying, we’re gonna punish our enemies and we’re gonna reward our friends who stand with us on issues that are important to us, if they don’t see that kind of upsurge in voting in this election, then I think it’s gonna be harder – and that’s why I think it’s so important that people focus on voting on November 2.

The President of the United States shouldn't be trying to pit different groups of Americans against each other based on the color of their skin.

24) "The Cambridge police acted stupidly in arresting somebody when there was already proof that they were in their own home. . . . What I think we know — separate and apart from this incident — is that there is a long history in their country of African-Americans and Latinos being stopped by law enforcement disproportionately, and that’s just a fact." — Barack Obama on the arrest of his friend, Henry Louis Gates.

25) The "Justice Department" helped put guns in the hands of drug cartels via Operation Fast and Furious that were used to kill hundreds of Mexican citizens and at least one American, Brian Terry. After stonewalling a congressional investigation, Barack Obama asserted executive privilege to try to keep the truth from coming out about the biggest scandal since Watergate.

26) We essentially have an open borders policy in America now for illegal aliens who haven't committed felonies in the United States.

27) Barack Obama is illegally trying to implement the DREAM Act by fiat, despite the fact that it failed to get through Congress.

28) The fence on our southern border was supposed to be completed in 2009. Not only has it not been completed, but the virtual fence has been put off until at least 2016.

29) Because Barack Obama is so out of touch, he thinks that "the private sector is doing fine.".

30) Obama has blocked the keystone pipeline and ANWR while he has held up offshore drilling in the Gulf and demonized oil companies. It's hard to say how much more you're paying at the pump because of Barack Obama, but we can be sure the amount is considerable.

40 Reasons Not To Re-Elect Barack Obama - John Hawkins - [page]
41. Being soft hearted (having smpothy for the devil who is in disquise around the world when we know better bout this sort of thing), is yet another problem that we are experiencing under Obama. By doing this sympothy in respect for radical cultures and/or groups, who have rogue and radical intentions found in some nations leaderships or within these groups, in which is also possibly fueling radicalism in the world as a growing threat to security back here, has been very wrecklace indeed or so it seems now, because we are showing ourselves to be weak in the world under this current leadership in more ways than one it does apear.

Obama's words of opeasement and apology by blaming the republicans for the ills in the world today constantly, and this to other nations, has underminded this nation and it's security in the world, and possibly has resulted in these American deaths that are found in the newest violence over in Libya, and/or soon to be found in Egypt next if not careful. If Obama does not begin to show unity as a President for the American people in this nation as a whole, then we are in for it right on and right on, because this alone is a sign of weakness that opens holes for those who are looking in on it all, to then somehow jump through these holes the very first opportune moment that they can. This is a very dangerous time in the world, and America is split under this administration badly, so will we decide to remain weak or shore up these dams that have been breached dating back to 9-11 now?

i see Obama up in the polls and I can't understand any American in this country that would reelect this Muslim after seeing what a failure he is to all of us, and the trillions of facts about his past. Obama is a Muslim, born and raised as one, and never should have been elected in the first place. Is this Muslimi going to fool people a second time? God help us all. It will be the fault of the voters and the people who just can't see reality that will cause us all more harm. God help us
 
I will give you one reason to re-elect Obama. He wants to raise taxes on himself where Romney wants to reduce his own taxes. Obama wants to increase federal revenue by personally paying more in taxes while Romney wants to decrease federal revenue so he can keep more for himself.

Now if you could prove that Romney paying less in taxes will be good for everyone, then I might buy in, but unfortunately, we've been that route and found out that it doesn't work. If it did, we wouldn't have over 8% employment, now would we?

Anyway, I'm going with the guy who is willing to be taxes a little more rather than the guy who thinks he's paying too much even though he pays less than most average working Americans.
Obama as well as other rich lefties have the right to donate money to the IRS.

Why don't they?

Well we know he lied about being a Christian by the stance he took on many controversal issues now, in which a Christian wouldnot have taken, so it must be that he is something else instead, so hmmmmmmm what is he I wonder ? I think it might just be what you said (A Muslim), who is claiming to be a Christian for mainstream acceptance in America & for the vote of mainstream America in which he needs desperately to continue onward.
 
If you had to pick one item in that list that was actually a good reason, which would it be?
I'll give you one from my list that only has one - Anti American!
Yes, anti-American business, anti-American wealth, anti-American energy, anti-American culture, anti-American capitalism and on and on it all goes with this guy.

If he would have just adressed the problems at hand in America, then he wouldn't have created a mountain in which now he will have a hard time trying to scale, but it is his mountain to climb now in which he has created, so lets see if he can get over it. If he would have just adressed the problems that were in front of him, we would have been way down this road to recovery long ago, but he created problems because of his own agenda sought after, that would be piled on top of the problems in which already existed, thus creating a huge mountain of mess and confusion now.

Will this nation actually vote this guy back in you think ? It will be amazing to watch and see, but when it does or if it does, then we will see just how ignorant this nation has become now.
