OBAMA Does anyone really believe a word he says anymore?

[oreo]

I mean seriously the guy has lied to the American people so many times I have lost count.
He has more scandals under his belt than all the presidents combined and has put us in more debt than all of the previous presidents.

You really have to be brain dead at this point to think anything he does is going to benefit the American People.

This implies that there was a time when you actually believed him. But the truth is, Obama has been your sworn enemy since he won the Democratic nomination in 2008. Had Hillary won, you would say the same thing about her. And what about Bill Clinton? You never believed one word he said either.

But you did believe Ronald Reagan, who sold weapons to Iran behind our backs. And you did believe George Bush, who changed the justification for the Iraq War daily. The guy failed to protect the eastern seaboard, and he his policies detonated a bomb over the housing market and economy.

FYI: I didn't believe Obama from the day he started with that Hope garbage. He sounded like a typical politician, all of whom claim that they are going to change Washington but, instead, they just cater to big business and the neoliberal globalization that has destroyed the American worker. Difference between us is that you (and the Republicans on this board) actually trust your party leaders.

You people think that government isn't competent enough to run a laundromat, but then you trusted Bush to rebuild whole Arab nations and set-up a massive Constitution-shredding surveillance apparatus. And when he got caught illegally wiretapping the communications of American citizens, you looked the other way. When he got caught suspending Habeas Corpus, you looked the other way. And when he spent more than any Republican President EVER, you looked the other way. And when he made the greatest expansion to our entitlement system in our nation's history, (with Medicare Part "D"), you looked the other way. Point is: you have no credibility, and its partly because you are a slave to media sources which are never critical of a sitting Republican President.

So... our problem isn't that the Dems trust government . . . because the Dems admit it. Our problem is that Republican voters trust government, which is evident whenever you control the White House.

Your party controlled the White House, Senate and House for six fucking years, and you consistently raised the debt limit. And FOX News never said a word. (And you want us to take you seriously when you complain about debt?)

We don't believe you anymore because you are a slave to the Republican Party. We need you to control your own leaders, not be a cheerleader. Once you clean up your own house you can start casting stones.

Yeah--but NONE of the above you mentioned actually did this:



And then when democrats actually had an opportunity to keep their promise to millions of Americans they voted against it.

Senate Democrats voted unanimously three years ago to support the Obamacare rule that is largely responsible for most of the health insurance cancellation letters that are going out.

In September 2010, Senate Republicans brought a resolution to the floor to block implementation of the grandfather rule, warning that it would result in canceled policies and violate President Barack Obama’s promise that people could keep their insurance if they liked it.

“The District of Columbia is an island surrounded by reality. Only in the District of Columbia could you get away with telling the people if you like what you have you can keep it, and then pass regulations six months later that do just the opposite and figure that people are going to ignore it. But common sense is eventually going to prevail in this town and common sense is going to have to prevail on this piece of legislation as well,” Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley said at the time.

“The administration’s own regulations prove this is not the case. Under the grandfathering regulation, according to the White House’s own economic impact analysis, as many as 69 percent of businesses will lose their grandfathered status by 2013 and be forced to buy government-approved plans,” the Iowa Republican said.

On a party line vote, Democrats killed the resolution, which could come back to haunt vulnerable Democrats up for re-election this year.

So I guess you could say that Democrats really deserve to get their ass's kicked in November--and it's going to be a real ass kicking.

Yes, sadly there are people who still believe a word he says despite the countless times he's been found lying through his teeth.

One can always hope he starts someday soon. Im not expecting it.

It doesn't matter which Democrat gets elected. The right will vilify them. That's what happens when people become ideologues. It becomes a battle of good versus evil. If you look at the Taliban, Al Qaeda, or any other extremist group. The enemy is always "evil". Right wing ideologues work the same way. It isn't good enough to attack Obama's policies, they are focused on proving that he is "evil". Examples would be that he is supposedly a "Muslim" who was not born in America. It is stupid level shit and it works perfectly for idiots. Instead of logically pointing out that Obama is the worst president ever, they just say it. When they get proven wrong, then they just keep saying the same shit.

LOL...here we go again! The Right are an "extremist group"! You make that claim even though in the last two elections the GOP nominated the most moderate Republicans running to be their candidates...while at the same time the Democrats nominated the man with the most liberal voting record in the US Senate. Yet we conservatives are the ones who are "extreme"?

I don't waste time making over the top claims that can't be supported like Obama is a "Muslim" or that he wasn't born in America. All I point out is that his POLICIES have consistently been failures right from the start of his first term and his Administration is an appalling combination of ineptitude and corruption. They either don't know what's going on around them or they refuse to give the American people a straight answer about what they knew and when they knew it.

I can only laugh when you accuse conservatives of being "ideologues" when this White House is literally filled with them...from the President, to the Attorney General, to the White House Press Secretary! The REASON that this group is failing so epically is that the man in charge is an ideologue and he has surrounded himself with ideologues exactly like himself.
