Yeah Obama has zero power to be transparent...

"not veta, check your alt thing guy. also just because Ron Paul is GOP I don't go around saying you supported everything Bush did, (I hope you didn't support anything he did). Just because some progressives are registered as democrats doesn't mean all democrats are progressives. I'm sure Obama would be a lot more progressive if he was a dictator or at least had some more power, but frankly he doesn't have the power to affect much. Aside from setting the agenda through the media (and these days that's debatable) there's not much a president can do to enact his or her values."

This is a typical thought from democrats these days.

"I don't go around saying you supported everything Bush did, (I hope you didn't support anything he did)."

followed by...

"I'm sure Obama would be a lot more progressive if he was a dictator or at least had some more power, but frankly he doesn't have the power to affect much."

So once again we're faced with how Bush was able to ruin the economy and start wars on his own, but poor little Obama is helpless and powerless to affect anything with his presidency. This REEKS of hypocrisy and is a typical train of thought from dems. Hell, Obama has been selling that shit his entire presidency. It's a shame that so many buy it.

whats the consensus on whether or not hillary wouldve done a better job than obama so far?

Could she have done any worse?

W Bush sure did.

BOOM

Let's see, Obama is spending money on similar things as Bush such as wars in the Middle East and he didn't end the tax cuts from the Bush era. Then he adds on a bunch of spending of his own. All while not creating jobs and blaming everything that's wrong with the country on Bush and the Republicans, even though he's had 2-1/2 years of his own to right the ship. Obama has been drowning since the beginning. He's a loser, just as the title states. You can't possibly tell me you're pleased with his performance.

How exactly did Bush do worse?

"You can't possibly tell me you're pleased with his performance. "

Not really, no - but the "worst ever" rhetoric is ridiculous in my mind.

If you really want me to list the reasons why Bush was a worse President, I will - but it all seems a bit tiresome at this point, doesn't it?

I was just completing an easy joke setup

meh....you're no fun

If I had a coin with Bush's head on one side and Obama's on the other side, it would land on it's edge every time.

At least there were some booming times under Bush. Obama has had 2-1/2 years of suck with 1-1/2 more years of suck to go. (Hopefully not 5-1/2 more years of suck)

We have 2 of the worst presidents ever serving 12 consecutive years in the oval office. Don't make the mistake of making it 16 straight years.

There's absolutely 0 chance the republican nominee will be anything more than another corporate shill, placating to social-conservatives on the outside, benefiting the corporate financial GOP backers on the inside.

I will vote for whoever is running against that every single time.

At least I get liberal judges out of Obama.

its a good point about getting judges, whether you want more liberal or conservative judges.

the only republican that might not be a shill is ron paul, but im not sure hes a republican either, heh.
