So much for the false narrative that Obama was "repairing" our reputation with the world

[jknowgood]

The Philippines periodically undergoes a spasm of authoritarianism, they then come to their senses and remember who their friends are. This may come as a shock but not everything has to do with America and it's president. The Philippines are just dealing with their own version of Trump by giving us a little example of what happens when you vote with your rage.

That's it? That's the best silly excuse you can come up with? Wow...

Excuse? Do you in fact think the US president has the ability to control everything in the world? Ludicrous. We are not supposed to be the world police. It's high time you people quit expecting the president to ratchet up tensions just because some piss-ant little man in some other country said bad things about us. We give those little Napoleons legitimacy every time we act as if we even notice their shenanigans.

Liberals blamed Bush for every bad thing that happened in the world, and still do.

 

[nat4900]

You lie. I posted the facts. Compared to 2008 and Bush, the US under Obama has a more favorable rating from practically every country in the world.

Well, since the nitwit "claims" that the UK doesn't like Obama, I went back to look at a BBC poll....

Barack Obama still liked around the world, survey suggests

Global support for US President Barack Obama appears to have lasted through his two terms in office, a survey of 18,000 people for the BBC suggests.

More than 70% of people in 18 countries polled by Globescan think that his election was a good thing.

[P@triot]

Those are reflected in the Pew survey. (well Russia anyway, no data on Iran) Hey, Jordan hates us and so does Pakistan, so you must be glad about that too, huh?

I'm not a progressive. I couldn't care less if other nations like us. But you know what I do care about? When a politician makes promises and then fails to keep them. It's a shame that progressives have such a man-crush on Obama that they refuse to hold him accountable.

Obama has gotten just about everything he wanted, so what's the problem?

Nitwit.....and the list below is just from 2012

Bills Republicans Have Blocked Since President Obama Took Office

Obama did do lot of things even without Repubs support....and seems Repubs never agree with that accusation....here is the list I found on web.....lets see if someone willing to still refute....

1. Tax on Companies that ship jobs overseas- A bill that would have eliminated a tax break that companies get when they ship jobs overseas. Republicans blocked this, allowing companies to keep the tax break they receive when they ship jobs to other countries.
2. Political Ad disclosure bill- Would have required all donors to political campaigns to reveal themselves. Republicans blocked this, not once but twice.
3. Subpoena Power for the Committee investigating the BP Oil Spill – Give subpoena power to the independent committee responsible for investigating BP’s roll in the oil spill. Republicans attempted to block this.
4. The Small Business Jobs Act -would give LOCAL, community banks access to billions of dollars to loan to small businesses. Republicans blocked this, then attempted to block it a second time and failed.
5. The DREAM Act- Gives immigrant youth who were brought here as children a path to citizenship by earning a college degree or serving the military for 2 years. Republicans blocked this.
6. Repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell”- Would have repealed the law that forces gay and lesbian services members to lie about their sexuality and gives the military the right to discharge soldiers based on their sexuality. Republicans blocked this many times and Democrats were finally able to pass it with the support of just 2 Republicans.
7. Senator Franken’s Anti-Rape Amendment to the Defense Appropriations Bill – Makes it so that women raped overseas while working for foreign contractors have the right to have their case heard in an American court instead of having their case mediated by the company they work for. Only Republican men voted against this, but it passed.
8. Benefits for Homeless Veterans- Would have expanded benefits to homeless veterans and homeless veterans with children. Republicans blocked this.
9. Affordable Health Care For America Act- Prevents insurance companies from discriminating against you on the basis of “pre-existing conditions”. Requires that insurance companies spend 85 cents of every dollar that you pay on your actual health care. Limits health insurance companies profit margins. Republicans blocked this for months before it finally passed and have vowed to repeal it if they are elected.
10. Health Care for the 9/11 First Responders who got sick from being at Ground Zero- Would provide billions of dollars in health care to help the 9/11 First Responders who were at Ground Zero on 9/11 and are now sick because of it. Republicans blocked this.
11. The Jobs Bill- Offsets the payroll tax for 1 year for companies that hire new employees, or people receiving unemployment insurance. Also gives other tax incentives to companies hiring new employees. Republicans attempted to block this.
12. Wall Street Reform- Puts stricter regulations on the banks, preventing them from becoming “too big to fail”. Curbs reckless spending practices that caused the banking crisis. Republicans attempted to block this.
13. American Recovery and Reinvestment Act- Pumped billions of dollars into state and local Governments to prevent us from sinking into a second Great Depression. Republicans opposed this but now want to take credit for the parts of it that we know are successful.
14. Oil Spill Liability- Raises the liability on what companies can be made to pay to clean up after an oil spill. Republicans blocked this.
15. Immigration Reform- Republican suggested comprehensive immigration reform until Obama supported it. Now they’re rabidly opposed to it and even voted against their own legislation. Republicans blocked this.
16. Unemployment extension bill HR-4213- Would provide additional aid to the millions of Americans still on unemployment who are just trying to support themselves and their families. Republicans blocked this bill for 8 weeks before it finally passed. Republicans blocked this for 8 weeks before it finally passed.
17. Fair Pay Act of 2009- Also called the Lily Ledbetter bill. Requires that women receive equal compensation to men for doing the same work. Republicans attempted to block this.
18. No permanent military bases in Afghanistan.
19. Report identifying hybrid or electric propulsion systems and other fuel-saving technologies for incorporation into tactical motor vehicles.
20. Protection of child custody arrangements for parents who are members of the Armed Forces deployed in support of a contingency operation.
21. Improvements to Department of Defense domestic violence programs.
22. Department of Defense recognition of spouses of members of the Armed Forces.
23. Department of Defense recognition of children of members of the Armed Forces.

26. Improving aural protection for members of the Armed Forces.
27. Comprehensive policy on neurocognitive assessment by the military health care system.
28. Authority to make excess nonlethal supplies available for domestic emergency assistance.

And those were just some of the progressive provisions. On the conservative side, there are these, and more:

• Prohibition on the use of funds for the transfer or release of individuals detained at United States Naval Station, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
• Prohibition on the use of funds to modify or construct facilities in the United States to house detainees transferred from United States Naval Station, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
• Prohibition on use of funds to give Miranda warnings to Al Qaeda terrorists.

Why do you care?

If our enemies dislike us more and our friends like us more, it seems to me President Obama repaired some of the damage done by President Bush with his blunderous invasion and occupation of Iraq.

 

[forkup]

Our closest allies (England and Israel) now hate us. And our biggest enemies (Russia and China) hate us more than ever and are showing aggression towards us on a consistent basis.

Now relations have fallen apart with the Philipines thanks to Obama's bungling of foreign relations. President Rodrigo Duterte is furious with Obama (as most of the world is) and Obama has cancelled his trip there like a scared child.

This is what happens when a community organizer and an ideologue decides he wants to play "Commander in Chief".

Philippines leader curses Obama; meeting canceled - CNNPolitics.com

The real reason the meeting was cancelled. And by the way I'm pretty sure that if Obama would have taken that meeting, the Republican narrative would have been that Obama hasn't got the balls to stand up to a new Hitler or something like it. I am a foreigner and Obama in the view of most Europeans is considered a great president. And what's more the current Republican candidate is widely considered a loon.

If our enemies dislike us more and our friends like us more, it seems to me President Obama repaired some of the damage done by President Bush with his blunderous invasion and occupation of Iraq.

And if that were true - you'd be right. Unfortunately, it's the farthest thing from the truth. Our enemies have been emboldened and hate us more than ever. And we now have strained relations with what used to be our very strong allies. Our friends do not like us more. They like us less. A lot less. That's the reality.

Man dude...you have to stop ignoring reality simply because you have an epic man-crush on Obama.

Give examples of allies you feel have a problem with Obama. As I said Obama is actually well respected by the international community. And if you say the Philippines then I'll ask if you feel the endorsement from someone who literally compares himself to Hitler is worth having?
