I don't watch much news and definitely no political BS, but I was wondering how Obama was doing as president?

Did we close Guantanamo like he said he would?

Are we out of Iraq and Afghanistan like he promised?

wait, I just googled Obama election promises and found this site:
top site: http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/promises/
next down the list: http://moveleft.org/obamas_promises/index.html

and the list goes on.

Where is the outrage over this? I guess he's busy "fixing" the economy....giving away money rather than creating jobs. Housing industry is still in a slump.

I still get these 0% interest credit cards in the mail...wtf. When will these banks learn??

I'm just pointing out the fact that no matter the political party, they are all screwed up. Right, Left, whatever. Well, we are just right/left because no central/independent/etc will ever get voted in.

I wonder how Ross Perot would have done had he won? heh

Ross Perot was the human equivalent of a Chihuahua.

Small with a lot of bark?

How does that relate to wondering how he would have done as president?

Small with a lot of bark. Oh wait, we got that with GW. Would you rather have had a senile old man and an idiot?

Campaign promises meet reality. Of course, Obama's campaign promises haven't played out. How could they considering the piles of sh!t that were left to him?

Well, like I said, both parties are not very good. Currently we have a liar and what..someone who isn't better than Bush as VP?

Ah, but see...obviously we DO have money if we can continue to sustain 2* wars with a 1/2 one just starting.

How about we quit sending aid to other countries? Right there that would save us a TON of money. Egypt alone would save us $2 Billion annually. And that's just 1 country.

It's crazy what we send out of country to others that disrespect us.

*Well, I am counting Iraq since we still have troops in country, even though we aren't actively in a war per se currently.

Ok...sure, that's one thing that can and should be changed. But what about aid to other countries?

It all boils down to morals and ethics.

Have you ever bought anything online and didn't pay taxes on it? You being from FL, I don't know how that works, but in most other states, you are supposed to claim that on your taxes and pay it.

I wonder how many don't?

So...that's one example. But it shows that it goes from big corporations to the ordinary person out there...we don't like to pay taxes.
