I'm Happy Obama is Politically Failing- Are You?

[Book of Jeremiah]

I remember praying for christian converts in prison one day - I was in bible study correspondence with them for Bill Glass ministries. I had also just visited a downtown ministry to feed the poor men at a mens mission in an inner city ghetto. As I was praying I referred to the prisoners as prisoners and the poor as the poor and the Holy Spirit corrected me and said the prisoners in the prisons are free and the poor you are praying for are the prisoners because they are in captivity to drug addiction and alchoholism. Imagine my shock over that! I thought oh my! How could I have missed that! Truly the prisoners who had given their lives to Christ were as free as a bird and singing a joyful song like one too! Funny how our human mind can be conditioned not to see things as God sees them.

His success would do more damage to the country than his failure.

The Economy Has Tanked Since Obama Became President

#1 When Barack Obama entered the White House, 60.6 percent of working age Americans had a job. Today, only 58.7 percent of working age Americans have a job.

#2 Since Obama has been president, seven out of every eight jobs that have been "created" in the U.S. economy have been part-time jobs.

#3 The number of full-time workers in the United States is still nearly 6 million below the old record that was set back in 2007.

#4 It is hard to believe, but an astounding 53 percent of all American workers now make less than $30,000 a year.

#5 40 percent of all workers in the United States actually make less than what a full-time minimum wage worker made back in 1968.

#6 When the Obama era began, the average duration of unemployment in this country was 19.8 weeks. Today, it is 36.6 weeks.

#7 During the first four years of Obama, the number of Americans "not in the labor force" soared by an astounding 8,332,000. That far exceeds any previous four year total.

#8 According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the middle class is taking home a smaller share of the overall income pie than has ever been recorded before.

#9 When Obama was elected, the homeownership rate in the United States was 67.5 percent. Today, it is 65.0 percent. That is the lowest that it has been in 18 years.

#10 When Obama entered the White House, the mortgage delinquency rate was 7.85 percent. Today, it is 9.72 percent.

#11 In 2008, the U.S. trade deficit with China was 268 billion dollars. Last year, it was 315 billion dollars.

#12 When Obama first became president, 12.5 million Americans had manufacturing jobs. Today, only 11.9 million Americans have manufacturing jobs.

#13 Median household income in America has fallen for four consecutive years. Overall, it has declined by over $4000 during that time span.

#14 The poverty rate has shot up to 16.1 percent. That is actually higher than when the War on Poverty began in 1965.

#15 During Obama's first term, the number of Americans on food stamps increased by an average of about 11,000 per day.

#16 When Barack Obama entered the White House, there were about 32 million Americans on food stamps. Today, there are more than 47 million Americans on food stamps.

#17 At this point, more than a million public school students in the United States are homeless. This is the first time that has ever happened in our history. That number has risen by 57 percent since the 2006-2007 school year.

#18 When Barack Obama took office, the average price of a gallon of regular gasoline was $1.85. Today, it is $3.53.

#19 Electricity bills in the United States have risen faster than the overall rate of inflation for five years in a row.

#20 Health insurance costs have risen by 29 percent since Barack Obama became president, and Obamacare is going to make things far worse.

#21 The United States has fallen in the global economic competitiveness rankings compiled by the World Economic Forum for four years in a row.

#22 According to economist Tim Kane, the following is how the number of startup jobs per 1000 Americans breaks down by presidential administration...

Bush Sr.: 11.3

Clinton: 11.2

Bush Jr.: 10.8

Obama: 7.8

#23 In 2008, that total amount of student loan debt in this country was 440 billion dollars. At this point, it has shot up to about a trillion dollars.

#24 According to one recent survey, 76 percent of all Americans are living paycheck to paycheck.

#25 During Obama's first term, the number of Americans collecting federal disability insurance rose by more than 18 percent.

#26 The total amount of money that the federal government gives directly to the American people has grown by 32 percent since Barack Obama became president.

#27 According to the Survey of Income and Program Participation conducted by the U.S. Census, well over 100 million Americans are enrolled in at least one welfare program run by the federal government.

#28 As I wrote about the other day, American households are now receiving more money directly from the federal government than they are paying to the government in taxes.

#29 Under Barack Obama, the velocity of money (a very important indicator of economic health) has plunged to a post-World War II low.

#30 At the end of 2008, the Federal Reserve held $475.9 billion worth of U.S. Treasury bonds. Today, Fed holdings of U.S. Treasury bonds have skyrocketed past the 2 trillion dollar mark.

#31 When Barack Obama was first elected, the U.S. debt to GDP ratio was under 70 percent. Today, it is up to 101 percent.

#32 During Obama's first term, the federal government accumulated more new debt than it did under the first 42 U.S presidents combined.

#33 When you break it down, the amount of new debt accumulated by the U.S. government during Obama's first term comes to approximately $50,521 for every single household in the United States. Are you able to pay your share?

and a lot of that has to do with Congress playing their fucking games.....like i told Redfish....we have had bad Presidents before but Congress kept things together.....but then todays Congress cares more about their Party one-upping the other Party....no matter what....

What? What exactly did he say that I am supposed to argue with?

The fact that Obama's legacy is crumbling right before your very eyes and you're too blind to see it.

It's not "crumbling" at all.

People are pissed, no doubt, but it's obvious to everyone outside your right wing bubble what's going on.

Obama is president of the United States. As Bush pointed out, he's the Decider.

And unlike the Democrats, Republicans do not accept that.

Come 2014, they will learn the results of their folly.

In denial aren't we? I smell a colossal voter backlash due to the millions of people being kicked off of their insurance. The failure of the website, the insane premiums. Perhaps "crumbling" wasn't the right word. More like "evaporating."

Just got in from work and was hoping to hear some more Obama fail stories. He must not be in office today

If they had found God a little sooner, they might have avoided prison.

Another great day that Obama looks like the dufus wad he is. He might as well go back to smoking Mary Jane, huffing down Camels, and throwing back Old Thunderbird and moon pies

He's failing? He has ACA, increased taxes, spending out of control, and pretty much has gotten everything he has been fighting for. That's the problem. he isn't failing at all.

In my book, fail is opposite of the end result perceived.

What are you talking about? We on the right fully know that Obama is the decider, we award him all the blame for his failures.

The Virginia referendum on Obamacare just ended. Obamacare is likely to win.

Dig it.... After 4 months I think it's time again to bring the OP up for discussion. Multiple failures , as another OP reported, continue to mount.

I'm glad that Obama has proved me, and 50% of other Americans, that BO has not made the cut. And as I stated in another thread, very lucky this country has not gone Ukraine in the streets

This last 6 years in America have been like watching a mammal die a slow death. I used to not allow that in my hunting days.

But in this case, watching Obama just screw everything up is worth the price of admission

[Rozman]

A few more years of Obama.
I think the country will survive his nonsense.
ObamaCare is a disaster and can not be fixed.
There will come a day when it will be stripped down to nothing.
And that will be a good day.

All the lies Obama told about healthcare will be exposed at some point and even the most extreme
worshippers of this man will have keep their faces shut.

 

[TemplarKormac]

And now that I come to think of it, since when is it good to wish for someone to fail? All I will simply do is oppose him/them, to my detriment if I must, because that's what I believe. So to say about one politician of either party "I'm glad he's failing" is like saying you want cats to fall off the face of the Earth because you think dogs are superior.

What I want Obama to do is put the well being of his people over his ambitions. I want policies that target a group of people for their standing in society to fail, yes, namely policies that attack the rich for being prosperous for one. But yeah, there are some things of his I want to fail, only because I am a staunch proponent of liberty, and this man has done more to erode it than anyone else.

Hmmmm. How does the improved economy jive with your slow death story?

 

[Mac1958]

.

I don't know what's in the guy's head, but when you say you want to fundamentally change something that many people love, it's a pretty safe bet that they're not going to mind if you fail.

It's also reasonable for them to question why you would want to fundamentally change something that you say you love.

Are you suggesting the GOP is succeeding?

It's kind of ridiculous to hope your president fails whether you like him or not. In fact, it's downright immature. A positive moment for our country? He is here until 2017 whether you like it or not. Your logic is completley flat.

When someone says to you that America needs to be "fundamentally transformed", help us understand where and how that is positive? Why not say, "America has made great strides but we can do better and here's how we are going to do it".

 

[Mad_Cabbie]

I don't see how you can say that Obama failed - It's really a reach to prove that he did.

I would not wish for any president to fail - that would be catastrophic; why would anyone want that?

Here's a great idea - wish for a better president ... not ill will on the one you did not vote for.
