That's right all your Righteous, Flag Waving, Apple Pie Eating, Mother Loving, Girl You Left Pregnant Back Home ConJobs...One Year Ago Today..."Bin Laden Is Dead".

What did the shrub say...let's see...."I Really Dont' Think About Him That Much."

Obama got Bin Laden....the shrub got zip.

al-Qeada is broken and bleeding.

GM is back on top.

RePugs want to continue to U.S. Tax Payer Dollar's to Oil Companies.

Lillly Ledbetter Act Signed.

Quaddfi is DEAD.

Cyber attacks on Iran.


Mittens ties his dog to the top of his car and has Swiss Bank Acounts.
 
Yeah, and the old GM and Chrysler are dead, too. The shareholders are bankrupt and the bondholders nearly so. Obama stripped at least five billion in capital out of the system and gave it to the UAW instead, so the UAW could maintain its position of dominance as the world's largest consumer of Viagra.
A 2.2% yearly increase in GDP? No problem. No capital, no growth. You'll love it when the US gets to a 1% growth in GDP and Obama mandates that businesses have to hire the illegals first.
Obama's too busy growing the Government at the economy's expense.
 
We should all be grateful to the man who planned, commanded and controlled the Bin Ladin raid. So raise a glass to Admiral William McRaven!

Al Quaeda is FAR from broken and bleeding but is stronger than ever before in Yemen, Somalia and operating as boka haram in Nigeria.

Congrats obama for failing to achieve victory in either Afghanistan or Iraq but snatching defeat from victory's clenched jaws.

Just one question....

How long have you been a useful idiot?

Since birth?
 
Europe is in economic double dip because they went with republican ideas of Austerity
 
Europe is in economic double dip because they went with republican ideas of Austerity

Another asinine statement from you.

Your USMB Standard.

Things are more expensive now because of dem policy of printing money from thin air.

You are way too fucking stupid to realize the fed has bought 60% of our securities.

Damn you are an idiot.
 
Meanwhile, back in realityville, horrible economy, high unemployment, non existent energy plan, gdp projections halved, inflation, failed policies and scandals littering the landscape. Oops, forgot about massive debt.

Indeed happy days.

Osama dead was a good thing, however our foreign policy may well be worse than domestic and that is saying a hell of a lot!

Panetta: Iranian influence in South America akin to 'expanding terrorism' - The Hill's DEFCON Hill

Panetta: Iranian influence in South America akin to 'expanding terrorism'
By Carlo Munoz - 04/23/12

...

Iran’s recent diplomatic push into South America could help Hamas and Hezbollah expand their foothold in the region.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has visited the region six times over the past six years.

Tehran has also expanded its network of embassies and cultural centers in Venezuela, Ecuador, Bolivia and Nicaragua during that time.

Iran’s increased engagement with its South American allies is one way Tehran can get around the raft of economic and diplomatic sanctions imposed by the United States and its allies.

Hamas and Hezbollah have also leveraged its connections to narcotraffickers and other transnational crime syndicates in the region to raise money for future terror operations, Southern Command chief Gen. Douglas Fraser told Congress in March.

“We do see evidence of international terrorist groups benefitting from ... illicit trafficking and money laundering” in South America, he said in written testimony during a March 13 Senate Armed Services Committee hearing.

Specifically, both Iranian-backed terror groups look regularly to South America to finance their operations in the Middle East, Frasier said at the time. ...

Obama got Osama, but lost the Middle East
Posted by William A. Jacobson Saturday, April 28, 2012

The successful Navy SEAL raid which killed Osama bin Laden is becoming one of the central themes of the Obama campaign.

Almost every other sentence out of the mouth of Joe Biden (who opposed the raid) is about ”bin Laden.”

...

But the killing of one person has been against the backdrop of a complete disaster for the United States throughout the Middle East and Central Asia.

North Africa is or is on the way to domination by radical Islamists. We pushed Mubarak out without any transition, and the Muslim Brotherhood and even more extreme Islamists are nearing control. The same is true in Libya and Tunisia.

In Afghanistan, the Taliban are resurgent, waiting out Obama’s timeline for withdrawal. In Iraq, the Iranians have extended their influence and the nation again is dividing along sectarian lines, with the unifying factor (except among the Kurds) being hostility to the U.S.

In Syria, where for once we could have dealt a crushing blow to Iranian influence, we have helped Bashar Assad hang onto power to the extent that both sides hate us.

Our one true ally in the region, Israel, is in its most precarious position in decades, surrounded by massive Iranian-backed missile bases in Gaza, Lebanon and Syria.

There is almost nowhere in the Middle East that the United State is better off than it was four years ago.

Obama’s foreign policy has been a profound disaster, subjugating generations of women throughout the region to fundamentalist tyranny as Obama concocts a false “war on women” campaign theme against Republicans.

Yet Obama and his campaign team trot out Osama bin Laden to cure all those political ills, and as political cover for a failed presidency.

One lucky three-point shot doesn’t make you a star.

Obama got Osama, but lost the Middle East. Repeat.

Considering that in 2008 all the republicans said they would not go into Pakistan to take out bin laden and attack Obama for saying he would we should be grateful that bin laden is dead because if the GOP was in charge Bin laden would still be alive\

Al Quaeda is FAR from broken and bleeding but is stronger than ever before in Yemen, Somalia and operating as boka haram in Nigeria.
Obama killed more Al-qaedua leaders in 1 yea then Bush did in 6

You consider Obama suing yet more private citizens a good thing? When the asshole can't get his way legitimately through our legislature he pouts all the way to court.

have a link from the copy & paste?

GM and Chrysler stocks are up by around 40% from their low; so thanks for proving that you are clueless

A 2.2% yearly increase in GDP? No problem. No capital, no growth. You'll love it when the US gets to a 1% growth in GDP and Obama mandates that businesses have to hire the illegals first.
Yep we can thank GOP austerity policies for low growth; before the GOO land control GDP growth was at 3%
Obama's too busy growing the Government at the economy's expense.
Govt spending under Obama has increased less then it did under bush or Reagan; proving once again that you are cluless
