But I thought the Republicans blocked him from accomplishing anything.

They did!
Unless he did, then they didn't.
But if he did, then it wasn't, then they did.
Unless he didn't, then it was, then they didn't.

Its really not that hard to understand man. Get with the program!

What's somewhat tragically amusing is that the one you quoted was fried by the powers that be, the one he is thrilled about supporting "terrur, terrur, terrur" penalties which might have been used to lock him up for what he did and the key thrown away.

Stockholm Syndrome?

It's really too bad Dave wasn't throw in the can for his terroristic computer hacking crimes.

its the republicans' fault that he doesn't have any successes
No, this is wrong; it's his low approval rating that is a GOOD thing. It shows that republicans hate him, ergo he is great. The lower the rating, the better he is. This is the new democrats' math. Self delusion at its prime.

Don't forget the DJIA setting yet another record. He has more than doubled the DJIA during his presidency. This bull run on the market is absolutely epic. I would like to personally thank Obama for this. It could have NEVER happened under a Republican president. I shudder to think where our economy and market would be under those buffons.

You do realize that the 1% get richer than you do when the stock market goes up, right?

There is a very good chance he won't be re-elected, but I cannot in good conscience rule out the possibility.

Democrats are doing their best to catch up to the Republicans.

Yep, and that poll was a month ago. We all know what has happened since then. As we saw in 2008 people will blame an entire party for what a President has done. You think come 2014 election day people will be more concerned about a shutdown that happened a year ago or the potential 10's of millions more people getting kick off insurance from the impending Obamacare business mandate?

The fact trying to be made is unfortunately misunderstood by some. It's not that everything that Republicans hate is good. It's that Republicans hate everything that is good. They also hate some things that are bad and love some things that are bad. Nothing they love is good however. So if Republicans loved Obama, there'd be a problem. Them hating him means he could be good or could be bad.

LOL, stupid Democrats do love their hyperbole.
