Will you vote Barack Obama again???

[ByeShea]

I'm certainly disappointed but when there's no other candidate with even a tenuous grasp of reality how can one vote for anyone else?

Obama sucks. Don't pretend otherwise.

The governor of Wisconsin gave a speech last night, spoke straight forward truth for 8-10 minutes about the situation there and did so credibly, making those idiots overrunning the capitol and senators running out of the state look like immature children.

It occurred to me in the middle of it that Obama wouldn't in a million years be able to speak like that without a teleprompter.

I think it's going to be a Democrat who's going to do him in the primaries, as opposed to a Republican in the general election.

Don't forget, in addition to millions of disillusioned voters, there are many, many Democrats who've lost power in the last two years because of Obama. He has not delivered.

[DEP78]

if Palin runs against him i will vote twice for Obama

I heard Democrats do like to vote a couple times in each election.

[PD77]

Didn't vote for him and his teleprompters the first time and I wont the second time either.

[DwightShrute]

obama saved capitalism after bush plundered raped and nearly destroyed it. - outright LIE

-stock market up 100% since near collapse LOL

-saved banks from complete collapase due to bush era policies such as "the great american downpayment initiative" that gave downpayments to the poor to buy homes they couldnt afford - FALSE

-reveresed record job losses, 4 million jobs lost 2007-8, a year prior to entering the white house - FALSE

-auto industry saved by bailout & cash 4 clunkers program, gm & ford posting record sales -- False

-gave millions of uninsured americans health care - FALSE

so to answer your question, how could anyone not? 100% yes!

Obama needs to resign - worst president ever

[jjgold]

What got Obama in was dumb white college kids that have no clue about life

shame on them

Obama ruined this Country

[ByeShea]

intelligent people deal in facts not half truths and innuendos.

Says the guy who claims Obama saved capitalism and "saved jobs".

Are you stoned?

Every big move Obama made has blown up in his face (last November's elections were an unmistakable referendum on how wonderful he's doing - historic Democratic losses and he's backing another loser with nearly 70% of America being against unionized gov't workers ... hey, don't be mad, I'm just sticking some facts in your face) and every move he didn't make disappoints the base who elected him.

Here's where you just went too far: """-reveresed record job losses, 4 million jobs lost 2007-8, a year prior to entering the white house"""

That's the most idiotic thing on this thread.

Obama pushed a gigantic "stimulus" (and unsuccessfully pushed for more) with the premise that it would create jobs and keep unemployment under 8%. Unemployment has been over 9% for 21 straight months - and this doesn't factor in the millions who've stopped working or gone "off the grid".

His policies are anathema to job creation and spurring the economy. In fact, the one field (no joke) where job growth has been spectacular is IRS revenue agents.

Off-shore drilling bans, putting the kibosh on developing shale oil extraction methods, over regulation, and the economic burdens of health care are just but a few of the reasons why this guy is job creation kryptonite.

I don't see a 2nd term.

[Thunder Gulch]

It depends....I always vote for the person I deem to be the best candidate for the country. Considering Obama has buried my kids with a mountain of national debt, I will take a close look elsewhere. Bush started it, but the Obama solution is to borrow money from somebody else at a time when I'm not President. It's shortsighted at best.

No what got Obama in was the dumb old white people in the GOP.

Hands down the most useless and annoying slice of the US population. I respect ghetto trash more. They at least have a plausible rationale for voting early and often for handouts.

[crustyme]

...

fact.

[Andy117]

Never since FDR has a president divided the country apart like Obama has.

Any more divided than when bush won in 2000 & 2004 by tiny margins?

[Andy117]

Again implies I voted for him the first time. I did not. I will once again support Mitt Romney and if he fails to obtain the Republican nomination I will once again vote for whoever does.

I'd love to see Romney sell the difference between what he did in healthcare and Obamacare. That should be entertaining.

[stevenash]

anybody that says Obama makes Bush look good is a fuking moron. enough said.

Says the moron.
If Obama was in office on 9/11 he'd be praising his brothers.

[benjy]

fact.

What is the source for this?

Bush started it, but the Obama solution is to borrow money from somebody else at a time when I'm not President. It's shortsighted at best.

Bush did poorly, but when Obama chose to throw an anchor at a drowning economy. The numbers are damning.

We have about a $3.7 trillion budget and about $2 trillion in tax receipts. Obama pushed a formerly Democratic-dominated CBO and federal financial boards to project absurdly implausible numbers to justify the grossest overspending of tax money in US history. And it's already done "buppkis" for our country.

The markets don't react to government reports anymore, which is horrifying because that means there isn't confidence in the integrity from Department of Labor reports. Consider that a significant crack in the dam.

At best we're seeing a game of Presidential musical chairs and the music stopped under Obama - but I think he makes horrible decisions and stays loyal to a dream hippies created in the 60s.

Anyone who thinks he's smart should just consider the risk/reward decision he made to push health care in 2009-2010 like he did. Partisan wins at catastrophic prices = stupidity.

[stevenash]

If the Republicans were smart (which they're not) they would put a ticket together with some young hotshots and not the "old guard" that has trainwrecked the country.

So Bill Clinton revises hows Fannie & Freddie Mac operate and process applications which accelerates the economies debt. Then the economy crashes, George Bush institutes changes that take several years to see results. Obama just sits back and watches these changes take effect, and he gets credit.

I own my own company with 24 employees. Half of my employees make over $80,000 per year. I am not hiring or spending any cash right now primarily because I have no idea how much I'm going to have to pay in health care coverage and costs. Unlike, McDonalds and 60 other companies, I don't get the chance to opt out of the federal requirements.

Clinton got credit for the economy turning around just like Obama is getting credit now when the turnaround has more to do with factors outside the decisions made by either of those presidents.

I would like to ask any of the Obama-ites what specifically did Obama do to cause the economy to get better?

[dherd]

absolutely will vote obama - republicans run campaigns saying that govt does not work - then when they are elected to office they prove it.

you cant trust republicans with money or power.

[ByeShea]

fact.

Shut it, retard. Nothing was transpiring before or since Jan 2010.

He (and you) should be ashamed of that chart, it's exactly the beginning of the "L-shaped recovery" Obama claimed the stimulus would prevent.

Why don't you find and post a chart for actual job growth?

[muldoon]

the Obama solution is to borrow money from somebody else at a time when I'm not President. It's shortsighted at best.

And this is different from every other previous POTUS in your lifetime how?

[tickingclock1]

-saved banks from complete collapase due to bush era policies such as "the great american downpayment initiative" that gave downpayments to the poor to buy homes they couldnt afford

This was Clinton. F&F started those policies due to pressure from the Clinton administration.

of course and everyone knows it yet the left wingers still attempt to blame Bush.

[QuantumLeap]

Obama was a part of the ACORN movement that did the same thing. Both Bush and Obama should take the blame for that along with all the corrupt lenders who didn't even do income verification. But hey, the lenders didn't need to worry. They sold the mortgages to someone else.

[Thunder Gulch]

And this is different from every other previous POTUS in your lifetime how?

There's borrowing money and then there's Obama. The % of deficit to GNP is off the charts.

[colchonero10]

fact is most of SBR are failed and disgruntled middle-aged white men, of course it's gonna skew conservative here.

[ByeShea]

And this is different from every other previous POTUS in your lifetime how?

By the sheer scale of it. 40 cents of every dollar spent is borrowed. Bush was getting shamed for running at 22-23 cents on the dollar - and he enacted measures, tax cuts, that ended up spurring the economy and increasing tax receipts.

Bush just couldn't reign in spending.

Obama not only encouraged historic increases in spending, he's enacting policies (taxes, regulation) that will retard economic growth by sending big corporations overseas, discouraging entrepreneurs (I can speak to this - the possibility of me hiring a full time employee is zero, thank you Obamacare - but I'm still holding out hope for an SEIU-style exemption)...and thus making the gigantic deficits more gigantic.

He is a disaster and, fortunately, disasters can't fool all the people all the time.

[DwightShrute]

old pic . 14 trillion now

[ByeShea]

Not bad. If you can't speak to facts change the f'ing subject.

Massachusetts elected a Republican governor before Obama's term was half over - then he lost congress and virtually every battleground statehouse in the country.

Must have been all the failed and disgruntled middle-aged white men on SBR.

But look on the bright side, now you can legally marry your "special friend".

[19th Hole]

Didnt vote for him last time and he still rigged the election.

We're not discussing Jeb pushing the Cokehead over with the
hanging chads in Florida!!

[BigdaddyQH]

I think that Obama is certainly beatable in 2012, considering that he has absolutely no clue as to what is going on, sends his goon teams to Wisconsin and Ohio to protect this union buddies, and will not stop spending. This guy reminds me of Stalin more and more every day. The challenge that Republicans have is finding a candidate that can defeat him. Since the Liberals have no options when it comes to defending Obama, all they will do is attack. The GOP must find a candidate that is not an easy target. That eliminates Sarah Palin, and anyone with the last name of Paul. The Independents are going to decide the next election. The GOP need not necessairily nominate a "moderate", but must nominate someone who is not a lightning rod. With the Democrats likely to lose the Senate in 2012, the GOP has a golden oppoetunity to rid the nation of Obama and the Demcoratic controled Senate. They have a ton of issues that they can campaign on, from the foreign policy debacle, to Obamacare, which the courts will shoot down, to inflation, which is now here, to the billions of wasted dollars that the Democrats are responsible for, to the Stalinistic tactics that Obama is using to try and save his union buddies, to Michelle butting into what we eat (and that is a hell of a lot of butt). The Democrats certainly are a huge target in 2012. The GOP can win, if they stick to attacking Obama's record, which is the worst since the Jimmy Carter debacle, and lay off the personal attacks. Personal attacks are the only thing that the Democrats have to use in 2012, and thevoting public will get tired of that real fast.

[King Mayan]

**** no, Obama is so clueless he makes 'W' look like Teddy Roosvelt.
Republicans earned the right to take back the WH after 3 years of this joker.

Arizona inbreds...

[King Mayan]

I will be voting for Obama. I mean it took Bush 8 years to run this country into the ground and now folks expect Obama to bring it back up in a few years.

it's really easy to get out of a depression... Dont worry guys, you will get a white president again....

[King Mayan]

fact is most of SBR are failed and disgruntled middle-aged white men, of course it's gonna skew conservative here.
