This is a horrible list, many of which can be attributed to past presidents.

The healthcare system? It's BEEN shit. The only way to actually fix it would be to do what every OTHER country has done and go with socialized medicine. But since we can't do that (and I'm pretty sure you won't), what Obama proposed and got passed was the next best option. It's FAR from perfect, but at least now people can no longer lose their healthcare for being sick, and their are cost controls in place such as a requirement that only 20-25% that someone pays in can go into overhead expenses. It's FAR from perfect, but it's still an improvement over the status quo.

National debt, really? You are going with that? Are you forgetting who got us into two wars? Who proposed and pushed through those expensive tax cuts? Who was in the driver's seat when the economy crashed? All of this is on Bush, at the very least, if not also his predecessors. Under Bush, we went from a project 5.6 trillion deficit to a 6.1 trillion surplus. You can't blame that on Obama.

Certainly, I am disappointed that Obama wasn't more bold in reducing the Bush tax cuts sooner, and I am very peeved that he has used drones like he has and hasn't pushed for the expiration of the Patriot act and the restoration of rights removed during the Bush era. But not correcting the mistakes of the last president doesn't make him a WORSE one. There is only so much any president can do, but all things considered, Obama did a lot in the two years he had a congress that co-operated with him. Obama cannot do much on his own beyond foreign policy (and on that front, he has ENDED the Iraqi war, easily Bush's biggest mistake, and is in the process of ending Afganistan). Obama cannot unilaterally fix all of Bush's mistakes, and as far as the current Congress is conscerned, they weren't mistakes to begin with.

The poor have been getting poorer since the 1980s. Don't put that on Obama. Put that on Reagan, Bushes, Clinton, and "trickle down economics".

This is stupid and not really warranting a response, but I will say this: what you mention isn't even an Obama policy, never was, and never will be.

Can't fail what hasn't been finished yet. Obama's got 4 more years to push them through. And I would think you would be happy about this.

...are you joking? Pretty sure your joking here. This wasn't the fault of any president, just an irresponsible corporation.

....again, not an Obama policy.

The only thing Obama's done is make the current congress look like kindergartners. Largely because they are acting like ones, and Obama is (unfortunately) the only adult in the room. This is on the tea party and few other crazies in the Republican party.

....and again, that was the Republican party, which completely mistook what the debt limit was and decided to take it hostage. Had they just past the deficit limit and pulled other shenanigans to reduce the deficit (like...hell, SHUTTING DOWN THE GOVERNMENT. Even that would have been a better idea) then this never would have happened. That said, our credit is far from "destroyed".


This article feels like a parody of conservative crackpots more then anything else. Obama is FAR from a perfect president. But he's done plenty. Here's a nice lil website that'll give you an idea:

That was fun to write, but I'm done here now. These are not really points worth me arguing beyond this.
