Because he has turned the economy that Bush created (near depression) arround
Agreed.For me, the verdict is still out. Did he help get our troops out of Iraq like I wanted? Yes. Unfortunately, he sent them directly to Afghanistan, which I perceive as a lost cause. He took part in shady backroom deals during the Healthcare overhaul debate, which he said he wouldn't do. He also caved to the GOP and the extreme right on said Healthcare legislation and we ended up with a watered down bill that doesn't do much for "the people". He spent money lobbing missiles into Lybia, which I feel is stupid and something we do not need to be involved in, nor can we afford. He caved to the GOP and extended the Bush era tax cuts, which I disagreed with.
However, overall, I approve of his actions/inactions in foreign plicy affairs (North Korea, Iran, Syria, etc). He is wanting to spend money on Americans for a change, as opposed to spending money either bombing the shit out of, or helping to build other countries. Again, the verdict is still out for me.

The time table for the Iraq war ending was a Bush event It was the timing, stupid.
Obama-care was passed on the premise that we will save 500 billion dollars on Medicare, right So?
Why do you think we need higher taxes? Who is "we"?
at least your honest about your feelings
Because he has turned the economy that Bush created (near depression) arround
I don't believe the POTUS has the authority, nor the power to "turn an economy around", nor do I believe the POTUS should be blamed for "destroying" one. Please tell me specifically, what Obama has done, by himself to turn our economy around.[/QUOT
If the economy has been turned around then Bushes tax cuts did it
the stimulus did not work and the turn around did not really begin until 2010, when the dems agreed to extend them
honestly except for tarp, the govt did not create this mess they could not fix either
this is why i feel the words never let a good crises go to waste will one day end Obama's president
Tarp stopped the crash
The housing market is in as bad of shape now as it was then
So tell me what idiot thought this mess would only take a year to fix?
So....Bush coming out with a timetable after Obama had promised to implement one, and after McCain had stated that he didn't care if troops stayed in Iraq for 100 years or more, was coincidental?
You and I will never know what was going on with Bush and a timetable.
It wasn't the best idea to have one published so the terrorist could adjust.
Do you agree that Bush had made NO mention of a timetable prior to what I consider his giving McCain an "out" for his campaign, by implementing one?

Truthfully, I don't recall when the timetable for withdrawal came out, VaYank. I do know that it was mentioned that giving a timetable wasn't a in the best interest for us.
I will say that I was not impressed with us going to war with Iraq. We are getting now what I thought would happen....a mess. We broke it...and we have to fix it.

Jarhead, obviously....

Any one want to try and fill that bill?
As flawed as it is, he did start the ball rolling with getting our healthcare system headed back in the right direction. It has a LONG way to go but just the fact that he was the president that actually started the ball rolling is huge. I give him credit for that.

Personally, we were in, and always had been in (since the invasion), an unwinnable predicament. I did not see the timetable as worsening that situation for us. In all honesty, I had hoped that the folks we were fighting against WOULD pullback until we got our troops out, but as history has shown, that simply did not happen. And I couldn't agree with you more. We created the mess, and our children's children will be paying to clean it up.
So tell me what idiot thought this mess would only take a year to fix?
Jarhead, obviously....
wrong....
Never said it would be "fixed" in a year....so you have a serious reading comprehension issue.
Recessions usually last 6 months to 18 months until signs of unemployment decreasing.
This one took 2 1/2 years DESPITE the market increasing.
Enough said.
WHAT?Any one want to try and fill that bill?

How long before the Libertard panty droppers for Obama suggest a Constituitonal Ammendment to allow a President to serve more than two consecutive terms?
