Caught Osama, Ended the Iraq war, pulled our troops out of Afghanistan, Stopped allowing Israel to dictate US foreign policy (mostly), Elevated the presidency to the point where we don't look like total idiots (ala Bush II), Passed healthcare reform, Rebuilt the economy, took us out of the greatest recession since 1929, got our government turned back on without caving to whiny republicants, and finally slapped you in the face with his penis.

You forgot the part about Obama losing a top secret drone to the Iranians, losing 17 navy seals in a single day, letting the Pakistani doc who helped rot away in prison, enabling the soon to explode polio epidemic, increasing the national debt $440 billion in one month along with getting slapped repeatedly in the face by Putin's penis.

Proof that no matter how crazy or stupid some liberals may be, there will ALWAYS be a conservative who doubles that stupid and crazy. Thanks guys, you continually remind me why it's better to be a liberal.

You're an idiot. Liberalism has destroyed the US. Gotta love the hypocrisy of the left where one conservative represents them all but don't dare apply that same standard to anyone else.

You HAVE to be a parody account. I don't see how it's possible someone as retarded as you could be real.
 
Ended the Iraq war, pulled our troops out of Afghanistan,

bush ended it with the surge. Obama got the left over scraps to claim victory when in reality the Iraq government kicked us out.

remind me how many of our troops were killed this month in that shithole Afghanistan? WHY IN THE HOLY FUCK ARE WE STILL IN THAT PLACE!!!!??? Every death is purely on Obamas hands.

oh yea, lets not forget the thousands of women and kids obama has blown up with drones. yea lets be proud of that!

Like I said, since the Bin Laden raid was a success it had nothing to do with Obama, not his victory at all. But a drone goes down while spying on an enemy and it is on Obama. Okay... 🙄
 
No, he would only give Obama credit if the mission failed, then it would be 100% on Obama.

Oh, they credit him with failure even in success. He didn't take tactical command (in fact left the room during the raid), so they call it a failure of leadership. Of course if he had taken tactical command they would've called it "dictator Obama" and been spouting how it's not a President's job to be running platoon-level actions from the other side of the planet, and certainly not the place of someone with no military experience. The helicopter crashing? A direct result of his interference, of course! ("Why couldn't he just let the experts do their jobs? That's what they're trained for!! Does he think he's an honorary SEAL?") That's what conservative talk would spout, and our little parrots would be in here the next day to tell us all about it.

Name one good thing Obama has done.One thing that that works and greatly benefits the US in any meaningful way. 🙄

Here's a few.
Passed credit card reform in 2009.

Invaded a foreign nation and murdered an enemy of America.

Uses drones to kill enemies of the United States on foreign soil and ignores collateral damages.

And dont forget expanding our domestic spying programs, killing US citizens without trial, prosecuting more whistle blowers under the espionage act than all previous presidents combined, spying on investigative journalists to cool them, dick slapping the middle class with higher health insurance premiums or a tax, and being the first nobel peace prize winner in history to have a kill list.
 
I could ask the same of you about Bush.

Da boosh aint prez no mo. I've criticized Bush in the past for his policies, so I have no problem criticizing Obama. As far as his presidency has gone, he's only succeeded at world travel and golf. (minor sarcasm)

I remember when liberals vehemently criticized Bush for the surge in Iraq...to the point where it appeared to me that many actually wanted it to fail. Well, it worked. In Afghanistan, Obama tried a similar surge tactic and it failed miserably with hardly a peep from liberals. What a difference a D makes behind one's name. Obama also campaigned that he was going to leave Afghanistan more quickly than the Bush exit plan...this was one promise I hoped he would keep, only to be disappointed for being so stupid to take him at his word.
 
At this point, I think the OP needs to change the thread title to reflect the fact that no one cares about Baltimore city politics; they simply use it as an opportunity to rant about every success or failure of the last two Presidents. Actually I suppose that's how political discourse in our country works now.

Hey, there's a negative thing happening that's highly motivated by extreme partisanship...
OBAMA BAD!
BUSH BAD!
No, seriously, there's an unfortunate tendency for partisan politics to directly subvert the will of the people...
OBAMA BAD!
BUSH BAD!

Do you guys have anything constructive to say?

How dare you question the president's policy of petrodollar warfare and having a 50 civilians murdered for every terrorist. There's also the infamous "double tap" policy where they will bomb an area, wait for medical personnel to arrive, then bomb the medical personnel, which is a completely separate war crime.


Passed credit card reform in 2009.
Did you actually read the article? Basically, that legislation raises interest rates across the board by making credit card companies view credit card debt like long term bonds rather than revolving short term bonds. It's a simple fact of economics - longer term debt means higher interest rates. This is called a yield curve, as shown below:

normal-yield-curve.png


Obama is easily the worst president in US history. He's even worse than Bush. He's like a reversed Robin Hood; instead of taking from the rich and giving to the poor, he's taking from the poor and giving to the rich. The economy has not been this bad since the Great Depression, and he's doing everything in his power to make it worse. He passed Obamacare to force companies to limit their staff to 29 work hours per week, then he makes their wages worth significantly less by keeping Bernanke in charge of the fed (you may have noticed that tripling the money supply has made food and rent much more expensive). Now that poor Americans (roughly 1/4 of the country) are relying on credit just to eat food and pay utility bills, Obama's new credit legislation raises interest rates on credit cards so poor people are even more fucked than before.

You can see how evil Obama is just by comparing the economy to the stock market. How is the economy doing? Fucking terrible. 102 million Americans of working age, roughly 1/3 of the entire country, do not have jobs. Labor participation is at its lowest point since the 1970's even though both men and women are part of today's labor force. Income disparity is at its highest point since the 1920's. Meanwhile, Obama and his billionaire friends in the financial industry are playing golf and drinking 100 year old scotch while their stocks hit record highs.
 
You see, the problem with this list is who you're responding to. There's no point in providing proof to someone who is a partisan hack. No amount of proof that is not already in line with their views will be accepted by them because they've already made up their mind.

Yeah but it's funny to watch them foam at the mouth when they hear facts that upset the worldview impressed upon their weak minds by conservative radio and Fox news.

These are the most hilarious, and basically point out how crazy and out of touch you guys are with reality.

Some of these, like declaring the ocean closed, are just hilarious while others like "refuses to show pics" are just wrong. They actually did show pics you imbecile.

The sad part is the majority of the problem is your ignorance. Conservatives, especially social and gun-crazy conservatives, are 99% of the time uneducated hicks or just people with mental health issues. I am not angry at you, I just pity you (and laugh at you).
 
And then there's the fact Obama didn't actually do any of those things, it's just that leftwing dumbasses worship him like the subservient dickheads they are.

riiiiight.

I see there isn't an asshole too large with which you can not bury your water-filled noggin.

Liberalism created the USA.

Don't you have a war on Christmas to wage/defend right about now?
 
You're one of the most retarded members here and it's no surprise you resort to insults.

You do realize that you insulted me before I ever even addressed you, right? I repeat, you HAVE to be a parody account. The complete lack of self awareness and constant ironic posting just is too ridiculous to be a real individual.

I insult people if they attack liberty. Don't attack liberty and you won't be insulted.

Well you insulted me because I pointed out the crazy bullshit and lies of other posters. I'll insult people when they say or do something crazy or stupid, it just happens to be true that the conservative P&N posters do that incredibly often. Don't say or do anything stupid and I won't insult you, but I'm pretty positive you can't help but do that. I do hold one exception where I try REAL hard not to insult Anarchist as he is genuinely mildly mentally disabled.
