Can you name 5 policies of Obama that you like and 5 policies that you don't like?

Okay, I will play the game that you have outlined for us. I realize that as an Evangelical Christian Conservative Republican and member of the Tea Party, there are those here who would like to attribute all of the negative comments about Obama to some fictitious mental condition (Obama Derangement Syndrome - Orginally the Bush Derangement Syndrome contracted by the left) or preferably to the fact that he is black (50%). Racism is the left's EXCUSE for disliking FAILURE. However, I assure you that my EXTREME dislike for Obama and his policies have NOTHING to do with either of the above. Therefore, I will play. Here are my choices.

Five Policies that I like
1. Pre-Existing Conditions - I used to work in the insurance industry and I have sat in on meetings where they try and come up with reasons, any reason, to deny benefits to someone. That is wrong and I am glad that it is now unlawful.
2. Strikes on Terrorists - There is no other way to say it. These people SUCK and violent retroactive abortion is the only solution. A Hellfire a day keeps the maggots at bay! Barry does good here.
3. Libya - I like the outcome here. There are parts I don't like (refer below).
4. Insurance for handicapped children - As the father of a developmentally disabled 28-year old daughter, this was long over due. I need to be able to keep her on my policy for as long as possible.
5. Tax cuts - Although they are somewhat negated by the TAX INCREASES I am seeing because of Obamacare, there are some here that are good.

Policies I don't like
1. Obamacare - Probably the single WORST piece of legislation ever crafted by a bunch of one-eyed, three toed, inbred Washington beaurocrats. NO ONE understands what it says, what it will do, or the effect that it will have on business. This thing MUST be repealed. Socialistic medicine is WRONG. "SOME" of the ideas are good. But the way they were enacted is just ridiculous. Insurance premiums are going up; taxes are going up; and care WILL be rationed. And this is good because???
2. Military Policy Across the Board - Like every left-winger without a brain, Obama thinks that if we just want people to be nice to us, they will. The first thing they want to cut is the military and of course, when they do we always have GI's who will DIE because of their stupidity. And then we have to deal with these third-world shithole countries like Iran from a position of weakness. You want people to listen to you: Sail a freakin Carrier task force into the sea next to them and they NOTICE. When they kill one of yours, you level a freakin city of theirs and remind them that if you have to come back, there won't be shit to rebuild. Somebody show Barry the movie "The Untouchables." That is the CHICAGO way.
3. Taxes - It takes a minimum of a million dollars to retire. And if you work your ass off and scrimp and save every penny you can, you might just get enough. Now, Obama and his OWS crowd think that everyone who has done what they are supposed to do is part of this mythical 1%. Really? How stupid can a human being be? And of course, because we did the right thing and saved this money, now we're the bad guys because we don't want to pay our fair share. Uh, hey idiot, I paid taxes on this money once. Now you want more?
4. Subordinating Americans to Other Countries - Okay, whether you left wing hand wringers like it or not, America IS exceptional. In this vein, members of the American military should not be subordinate to anyone else. You want to be a member of the UN? Great! But when they start trashing the US and then want our money, it's time they piss off. Want to support the World Court? Wonderful! But American President's, members of Congress, and the military ARE NOT subject to the freakin circus they call the World Court. In light of this, when we decide it is time to bloody someone's nose and remind them that we're peaceful UNTIL you piss us off, we don't take orders from anyone. Kick them in the nuts and move on. If that doesn't get their attention, then carpet bombing by B-52's will.
5. The "government" is somehow important - When you start giving everyone everything they want through the government, you somehow assign the government some sort of intrisic value. Here's a clue kids: The government is a bunch of inept, ignorant, inbred, imbeciles who do nothing but get in the way, screw everything up, and make it worse. We even had someone on this board try and say how much smarter government employees were than those in the private sector! My Gawd! The government serves us, for Christ's sake. Not the other way around. Want to make me really happy: Cut the government in one year by half by first eliminating about 100 government departments starting with the Department of Education. Then really start whittling them beaurocrats down!

There's my list. I could have continued with the POLICIES I DON'T LIKE probably for a lot longer, but the thread said five. Because of these policies that I believe threaten the very existence of this country, I have DEMANDED that my Senators and Congressmen do whatever they can to STOP Obama's policies. What ever it takes...

Step right up ladies and gentlemen! For less than the cost of a cup of coffee.....witness the instant transformation of a nutter as he moves seamlessly from measured, rational-sounding citizen to crazed, paranoid, partisan idiot.

Typical. Don't like something? Why the answer obviously has to be personal attacks. Funny... but predictable.

Can you name 5 policies of Obama that you like and 5 policies that you don't like?

If you can't fully answer this question, then you do not have an informed opinion about Obama, and therefore have no business in criticizing him.

Come up with 15 dislikes if you are so inclined, but I challenge you to name at least 5 policies of Obama that you agree with.

If you don't agree with Obama on 5 things, you don't have an informed opinion of him? WTF?

Yes, Amelia, that is right. Objectivity is crucial to understanding any issue, and unfortunately, it is missing often times when it comes to politics.

Do you not have a clue how you betray your lack of objectivity about the situation when you declare that any informed person would be able to find 5 things they agree with Obama on?

Do you not even have the teeniest tiniest clue what that says about how thoroughly biased you show yourself to be?

Please name five lies Obama has told. Then perhaps you can justify your continued participation in conversations about Obama.

You looking in a mirror again? Aren't you the guy that tired to tell me the rich are richer because the poor are poorer without one shred of evidence to back your position up? Didn't you start this thread demanding I list 5 policies of Obama I like, whcih I could do, without actually providing any policies of his you dislike?

Dislikes:

1) Extending the Bush tax cuts for higher incomes
2) Failing to limt the power of lobbyists in Washington
3) Flip-flop on Guantanamo
4) Failing to create legislation that would help people facing foreclosure
5) The fulfillment of his stimulus package

Again, you are a tool. I never said the poor were getting more poor.

1. The Obama tax extension applied to everyone, not just the rich.
2. Only idiots ever bleieved he was going to do that.
3. He did not flip flop, he just lost the argument.
4. He did fail at that, but he never really intended to do it.
5. Not sure what you mean by this one

What I like.

1. He is followed the Bush timeline for bringing the troops home from Iraq.
2. He decided not to leave troops in Iraq without a clear agreement.
3. He managed to prove Iran is crazy no matter who is president.
4. He was smart enough not to allow taxes to go up during a recession.
5. He stopped the politically motivated prosecution of Bush administration members.

And you did say it.
