January 13, 201610 yr Let me guess, because he is black and everyone who opposes him is a racist, right? No because he is a poser who acts like he has a clue. Obama is the racist if anything.
January 13, 201610 yr You have outlined the reasons for your personal animosity toward the president but haven't supported your argument that he's the worst president in U.S. history. The "worst period"? No need to go back too far in time. I would argue 2000-08 was far worse than '09-present because of the debacle in Iraq that destabilized the Middle East and the worst financial meltdown since the Great Depression. Then again, some people are only happy when we're dropping bombs. Complete inability to compromise has led to 50% on one side and 50% on the other side. To get things done would take a LEADER who has the ability to see it just doesn't always go the way you want it to. Race relations-as bad as ever. Trust between the police and communities-as bad as ever has been in our country. Trust of the government-nonexistent. Obama has changed things- for the worse, and even in Chicago (one of his hometowns), a town noted for it's illegal politics, there is even more distrust. Well, at least we have Bergdahl (sp) back....great trade. Ha.

I'm talking big stuff ... wars, depressions, slavery, big scandals ... stuff that tarnishes presidencies for centuries ... not "Obama has changed things for the worse" or "inability to compromise."

And guess where she was from...you got it South Carolina. Banner year down there as far as race, community, and LEO relationships. It's time to own up and give the "devil" his due. Barring a year where the wheels fall off we are digging out of one hell of a hole left by the WORST president of at least 75 years maybe 100. On another side note: I like George W. I think he is a good man. The dinosaur cronies that were still hanging around from the Reagan era ruined his legacy, which is unfortunate because they wil die 30 years before he will. (On a side note : Any person who doesn't believe Mitch McConnell has not been an absolute poison to Washington leadership is delusional.)

I'll agree on McConnell and raise you a Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi. You have to admit, they are just as bad.
January 14, 201610 yr I'll agree on McConnell and raise you a Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi. You have to admit, they are just as bad. I don't think anyone would argue otherwise, at least here on BGP. But you are a rare one to admit McConnell is poison. For the record, compromise has not been a buzzword on Capitol Hill for decades, not just during the current POTUS' terms.

Actually if you went back through posts over time I'll bet it's just the opposite. He doesn't have many fans on here.

Not even close but it's classic for you to claim that and continue to apologize for Obama's failure.

Which definition of compromise? 1. settle a dispute by mutual concession. or 2. accept standards that are lower than is desirable.
January 14, 201610 yr Iran deal sets the stage for future world wars too.....failure on national economy...pitiful on the world stage as to where we were and we where are now as a country. May never get back to the top, but thanks Iran for letting our sailors free...

May never get back to the top, but thanks Iran for letting our sailors free... This may be the fastest we have had "hostages" freed from Iran. We may actually have something with them. If we do would you give Obama cred?
January 14, 201610 yr Hilarious....get on your knees sailor boy, girl sailor put this scarf over your head-now tell everybody how well we treated you. Secretary of State thanks Iran for letting the sailors go, and you think it is good news. Cartoons start early on Saturday morning....i hope you get your bowl of cereal and watch...
January 14, 201610 yr I'll agree on McConnell and raise you a Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi. You have to admit, they are just as bad. We never agree but all of these folks mentioned should have been in a retirement home years ago. Cap, not sure if you watched SOTU last night, but the Prez had a good line about how the rest of America may not have the same job and same insurance for the next 30 years like some of you here tonight. :lol:

You want to start a war with Iran? You sending your son to war with Iran? I thank God those boys and girls made it back safely and somewhere over there they have sense.
