Nah its not and Im not sayin Mitt is the best choice either

But I dont see how anyone defends Obama anymore. The mans a failed president, the worst in my lifetime, and is leading the slowest recovery in US history.

Im not even a big Romney supporter at all but Obama is beyond awful

The worst in your lifetime? Are you less than 4 years old? lol

Saying Obama is a failed president is just not accurate. In 4 years, with massive republican obstruction, he still got all of this done:

• Stopped the economy from going into a depression
• Passed Wall St reform
• Saved the auto industry
• Created 5 million jobs
• Ended the war in Iraq(and ending the war in Afghanistan, though I think it should end now)
• Got Bin Laden
• Repealed DADT
• Passed healthcare reform
• Unemployment rate down to 7.8%

If you want to support Mitt Romney, thats fine. I don't agree with everything Obama supports or has done either.

Am I correct in saying that (like with the banks) many republicans opposed the auto industry bailout or criticised it after it happened? If nothing had been done the knock-on effect (espcially in the short-term) would have been horrific. Thousands (hundred of thousands to millions? not too sure how many exactly the american big 3 employs). The chain reaction on other industry and the rest of the economy as a whole as all of those workers became jobless would have pretty much sent the US into a depression.

Not all of the Big 3 accepted the bailouts. Ford didn't take a dime. Then, you have all of the other manufacturers that weren't Chrysler or GM, and they didn't get money, either.

Rather than allow them to reorganize and re-negotiate with the unions, they simply threw money at them. If they went bankrupt, the jobs could have been saved still after reorganization.

Ford got bailed out before them. http://www.businessinsider.com/ford-was-bailed-out-too-2010-11
