Objective Obama?

The power of the Executive Order...

Now in all seriousness, it's hard to said that Obama is solely responsible for some of these turn arounds. As we know, some of the programs put in place by Presidents throughout history have taken years to produce outcomes while others fell straight on their faces. I'm not trying to say he didn't play any role but you can't discount the efforts put in by the Presidents ahead of him. It will be interesting to see how the next President takes over and either continues these upward trends or to the results of programs before their time and during their time result in another "economic correction".

President Obama has been very successful at destroying the fabric which made this country great. He's been successful at using race and income/wealth differences to Balkanize the nation. Successful at pushing his job killing and business destroying environ-Mental agenda down our throats using the EPA. His success at bartering a nuclear arms deal with a terror exporting nation will ring a sour note in years to come. His administrations success at covering up a long train of scandals is legendary. Oh yes, he's been successful alright. Any more and there won't be a country left.

If you adhere to the progressive philosophy then I guess Mr. Obama makes an adequate President. If, however, you believe that you should be able to keep that which you have worked for, shouldn't be lied to about what is programs will do and cost, if you believe you law should be read and understood before it is bullied through the legislative branchs and then, if it is none the less passed, the President should enforce it not give waivers where ever he felt it politically expedient. If you believe the President is a King or Emperor and can do anything he wants without following the rules set forth in the Constitution of the United States then you must really like President Obama.

I'm sorry, has anything Obama done been a raving success? He didn't have enough signatures to get his name on the ballots of several states, but his campaign forged enough signatures to get his name on the ballot. Would you call that a successful accomplishment of election fraud? And then he manufactured his birth certificate so I guess you can say he successfully duped American voters into thinking he was legit. And his appointed judges successfully shot down all attempts to question his [in]eligibility.

This country is doing what it does despite Obama's meddling influence.

For example, Obama didn't get Bin Laden. He called off previous missions (at the insistence of Valerie Jarrett) and on the successful RAID, he wasn't informed about the mission until the mission was underway and the birds were in the air. He really had no choice but to go along with it or it would have been plainly apparent that he was protecting Bin Laden. For someone who claimed to be in on the planning, my understanding is that he delegated full Operational Control AND accountability to Admiral McRaven [so that he'd have someone to blame if things went wrong]. REAL leaders don't do that. The person who gets the blame is the same person who should get credit, yet Obama spiked the football, crowing about it as if he had pulled the trigger himself.

Would you call Cash for Clunkers a success? How about the rollout of Obamacare? How much did it go over budget? We were told it would pay for itself and wouldn't cost the middle class a dime... which technically is correct; it cost a whole bunch of dimes! How about all that money Obama invested in Solyndra? The companies went under, nobody was held accountable, and taxpayers were left holding the bag. How many billion did taxpayers lose? And then there's our National Debt which has increased from 10.6 trillion to over 18 trillion dollars. And President GW Bush was "irresponsible and unpatriotic" for adding 4.7 trillion to the National debt over 8 years? We still have a year to go and Obama doesn't seem the least concerned about this threat to our National Security. NO, the greatest National Security threat right now is global warming... Right? @@

We also had the Arab Spring and Benghazi. I guess one could argue that Obama successfully armed Al Qaeda linked insurgencies and avoided having to answer to investigators about what really went down at Benghazi until AFTER the election. Hillary did a right fine job faking her head injury. What does it matter anyway? So we have a dead ambassador and ruined Gen Ham's career for putting together a rescue team when the Administration argued that nobody was available. And all this because of an obscure Internet video. Right? I'd say Obama is quite an accomplished liar.

Eventually the truth is going to come out -- despite the Administration's best efforts to manufacture evidence and destroy actual evidence of their wrongdoing. Obama's legacy is going to be one of shame. He will be known as the biggest race-baiting dope smoking liar to ever defraud his way into the White House and wreak havoc on the Constitution as well as compromise our National Security. My hope is that he isn't allowed to finish out his term and that he leaves office in an orange jumpsuit and handcuffs to face charges for his corruption and treason.

As for your chart, it doesn't matter how many jobs were added if they're jobs at fast food joints and the high paying, technical jobs are going overseas. Furthermore, what the chart isn't showing is the net jobs gained. How many million were lost? You can crow about unemployment going down, but if you change how unemployment is calculated and you aren't counting the number of employable people that have given up looking for work, it's just another fake statistic.

I shall provide some charts as well!

There are three times the number of people on welfare. The reason they aren't on the unemployment numbers is because they're kicking back at home voting for another socialist. Don't be fooled. Obama has done more damage than good.

The fact that he has peed all over our constitution too many times to count makes him the worst ever President we have ever had. Arrogant and self-aggrandization makes him even more despicable. Also, he knows nothing about Geo-politics and his apology tours makes America appear weak to our enemies and allies.

On what standard is he successful?
The economy? Foreign policy and defense? Winning the Nobel Peace prize?
History will judge him and Bush etc. accordingly. Based on my view, Obama's legacy will not be a positive one
