A list of Obama accomplishments

It became a sort of poster child for fiscal responsibility — a clean-coal power plant in Illinois that was one of then-Sen. Barack Obama’s pet projects.


Democrats insisted they were so serious about keeping pork

out of the stimulus bill that it was President Obama himself who blocked the FutureGen project from the massive spending package.



“It shows that we’re serious about it,” Brendan Daly, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s spokesman, said at the time. “The speaker said it, and the president said it: There will not be earmarks in this bill.”


Earmarks? Perhaps not. But funding for FutureGen? Absolutely, to the tune of $1 billion.


The Department of Energy on Friday announced that the FutureGen project is on track after all, committing federal stimulus money to advance the project to its next stage. One reason: It was the only shovel-ready project that fits the requirements of the stimulus bill.

Obama defended the execution of the stimulus package so far despite the high unemployment figure -- more than 2.7 million jobs have been lost since the start of the year -- arguing that most economists believe the country could have gone "into a tailspin" had the administration done nothing.

"We've done more than ever, faster than ever, more responsibly than ever to get the gears of the economy moving again," Obama said.

The FANTASY
Richard Danzig, a U.S. Navy secretary during the Clinton administration and a leading contender to be the secretary of Defense in an Obama administration, said he doesn't "see defense spending declining in the first years of an Obama administration. There are a set of demands there that are very severe, very important to our national well-being." U.S. defense spending has risen at a steady clip throughout the Bush administration.

The REALITY
The Obama administration asked the military's Joint Chiefs of Staff to cut the Pentagon budget for fiscal year 2010 by $55 billion, more than 10 percent of last year's $512 billion defense budget.

The announcement came late Friday, following a meeting at the White House between President Obama and Admiral Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs, Gen. James Cartwright, vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs, and Gen. Jim Jones, chairman of the National Security Council, according to a Fox News report.

The point is Obama's performance as President so far and this is beginning to show in his poll numbers as well, shows a President who appears to be on the constant campaign, as well as one who makes no bones about his desire to spend this nation into oblivion all based on this desire to keep a campaign promise so that his re-election and the mid terms wont be effected. The facts are he needs to concentrate on getting the budget deficit down, reduce taxes, and dump these massive spending programs until this nation has the money to pay for them. However, I would hardly call tripling the deficit by the end of your first year as President an accomplisment and imagine if you add another 2 Trillion dollars to that along with cutting the Military in Wartime and at the same time go around the world apologizing to anyone that will listen. Yes he's accomplised a lot so far, but the biggest thing he has accomplished is that for at least some the marketed version of Obama is not quite the same as the actual version.

I agree, we need to cut the budget.

Can we start with your monthly check?

Are you always the projectionist?

Remind us again how this is better then Bush?

Those may be accomplishments to him, but to myself, and many Americans,...they are failures.
 
LOL...I love it when the rightie whackjob start frothing. Obama must be doing a whole lot right..

That mindless fuckup from Midland of an ijit screwed your country for eight years, and you guys were nothing but a peanut gallery. Suck it up losers, this guy is gonna change your country for the better.

As an aside, you pissants who think he makes America weak are sooo delusional. Almost all the people outside of your country I know, absolutely think your country was getting weaker and weaker under The Chimp. Nobody feared you and nobody respected you. You are gaining respect, but I doubt anybody will fear you again....


The last chimp spent too much, and the new chimp is bankrupting us...and you don't see the irony. Our country is changing for the better being broke...that is a priceless coming from a socialist. The new chimp is not gaining any repect in the world like you claim, the new chimp is showing weakness, and the middle east see's it...just ask the citizens of Iran. You are right though....I doubt anyone will fear us again. Unless the next chimp that gets in has a set of eggs on him.

Glad you brought up the Middle East....

Taliban on the run in Pakistan.

Hezbollah loses the election in Lebanon.

Mullahs in trouble in Iran.

Somali pirates get theirs as well.

I thought it would take years for Obama to accomplish this. Just shows you how bad our foreign policy has been for the last eight years...


You are quite the moron Chris.:cuckoo:

How is he bankrupting your country? Do you even know what he has done? If he hadn't paid the $1 trillion you guys would have been a lot worse off.

What is happening in Iran is a sign of weakness? The secularists protesting against the mullahs (which never happened under Bush) shows Obama is weak? Pray tell, how?

Why do you want people to fear you? I thought you were the land of the free and home of the brave? The only kind of folk who like people to fear them have names like Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot and Idi Amin. You want the rest of the world to think of the US in those terms? Why?

Edit: Oh, and I have some socialist leanings - and that is in the true meaning of the word, not the US neocon right-wing meaning of the word (who are the only people in the world who use it in such a way)...

It's not just a trillion Grump, that is just the tip of it.....we don't have enough money to cover it. China doesn't want to lend to us anymore because we are at risk...or didn't you read that part. Plus....wait until we have healthcare we can't afford. We have had a TARP bill, that may have helped some...not sure on that. We have had a Stimulus bill that paid off the new chimps union friends. We're going to have inflation hit us pretty hard in the next year as our deficit increases. The economy is sucking big time and our government is taking over some parts of the auto and lending industries, not to mention getting into the healthcare. That is not going to to help our economy. This would be normal to a socialist like yourself...but not with most Americans...and America is starting to wake up to what's coming down the pipeline.

Iran isn't getting the support from the new chimp, he is keeping tight lipped when he should be giving them some encouragement to them. They are wondering why the US is mum...yes it is a sign of weakness...North Korea is laughing at the new chimp, along with Chavez...maybe your not catching the news on that.

I don't want the free world to fear us, but I do want the rogue nations, and terrorists to fear us....but of course, you probably really understood what I was saying, but trying to portray something completely different.

Grump...your in the tank for socialism, I don't care what definition you use with it...it's socialism...redistribution of wealth is socialism, and your for it, as is our new chimp. You might want to look up what the word neocon really means because you use it out of context (just like a lot of the left wing whack jobs do over here.)
 
Sorry the taliban aren't exactly running in Pakistan and what little is going right there Obama has had little if anything to do with. Iraq was already done when he took office and he still says will cadre types in Iraq for the immediate future The Democratic congress has prevented the close of gitmo. Unemployment has slowed only because companies are have already leaned down as much as they can without reducing essential personnel.

You know Chris if you'd grow half a brain and get your nose out of Obama's ass you could get all the way up to half wit.
 
Chris, I really think that you and Gaybiker need to go on a long ride together. Ride off into the sunset of Obama land, where fairy dust sprinkles everything into a utopian hallucination!

Fair point re the deficit being increased, but I just don't know what else he could have done.

I believe N Korea has a lot closer problems than the US (China). The security council voted unanimously to condemn them. If you think Kim was intimidated by Bush, you are sadly mistaken. nothing scares that guy..

What's wrong with Chavez? I bit too much to the left for my liking, but hardly any type of threat to the US..

No, I am not totally for distribution of wealth...some aspects, but not all. There is a difference.

The term neocon has shifted, just like the word communism did.

Personal insults are amusing but useless.

Taliban forced out of the Swat valley.

Hezbollah loses the election after Obama's speech.

Mullahs on the run in Iran.

Somali pirates dispatched.

It sucks to be a Republican, doesn't it?
