Obama: Great president or greatest? - General

[QUOTE=>VLN<;23619037]He has failed doing so, and everybody knows it.[/QUOTE] Yeah because stopping it from hitting 30% is such a bad job I mean come on!

Any president would have lowered the rate even lower by now. For fucks sake I think Sarah Palin would do a better job than Obama and I fucking hate her.

Sarah Palin doesn't know the first thing about government and running even a state. She's lucky she was first assigned to run a ice-covered outset state where barely anything happens so she could blissfully look out at russia with no one questioning her. Also, if you put anyone in his position unless they're as corrupt as dick cheney they would be in the same place as him. You could at least be thankful that we have a reasonable person working for the country now and is actively trying to satisfy ungrateful people like you.

Obama thinks we can get out of our debt by spending more! he is smart :downsbravo: [QUOTE=jjsullivan;23630454]Umm what? Sarah Palin doesn't know the first thing about government and running even a state. [/QUOTE] :bandwagon:

We've got David Cameron, he's bad, right? When I say bad, I mean Conservatives don't have a good history with Scotland so... yeah.

I hardly think OP is conservative considering all his complaints are that Obama isn't doing [i]enough[/i].

[QUOTE=>VLN<;23630258]Any president would have lowered the rate even lower by now. For fucks sake I think Sarah Palin would do a better job than Obama and I fucking hate her.[/QUOTE] Nah, she couldn't even finish one term.

[QUOTE=Mexican;23630650]I hardly think OP is conservative considering all his complaints are that Obama isn't doing [i]enough[/i].[/QUOTE] I guess he expected Obama to go "Right guys, you're coming straight home from Iraq and Afganistan and the Health care bill will come into affect right now."

[QUOTE=jjsullivan;23558461]You sir, are blind.[/QUOTE] You, sir get your news from youtube. Come on people so obama made like 2 or 3 mistakes, so does everyone. His weren't as fuckin huge though. Whatever happened to the hatred of BUSH? BUSH EFFIN SUCKED! WE ALL HATED HIM! [editline]08:08PM[/editline] [QUOTE=furbrain;23630533]Obama thinks we can get out of our debt by spending more! he is smart :downsbravo: :bandwagon:[/QUOTE] And you think that spending money to get out of debt is a bad thing... God.. You can't get out of debt without changing something. Inaction will lead to even worse depression! Not like you have any idea how to fix up a country now do you? You have to spend money to do a f*cking thing! Not like he can fix things up without spending now can he. Called a stimulus package. It freaking worked dude. Everyone just has extremly high expectations. It wasn't meant to just bring us out of this economic Crater we are in all its own. It was meant to stop us from getting into a situation worse than the great depression! It would have been a LOT worse if he hadn't done that bill... God.. Your the same kind of people that stood there with the, Obama Lies Grandma dies Signs. You idiots don't understand these bills and you insult them as if you do. Pull your head out of your ass and actually READ the bills before you shit on them. They had the bill online if i was right. So how about you read it yourself instead of listening to idiots telling you what they think the bill is going to do. NOTHING those idiots say is true, so read it on your own and decide. You shouldn't insult things you don't understand. [editline]08:14PM[/editline] [QUOTE=jjsullivan;23630454]Umm what? Sarah Palin doesn't know the first thing about government and running even a state.

The idiot you quoted doesn't get it, the rate of unemployment HAS dropped dip shits. It would have been A LOT fucking worse if he hadn't come along.

[QUOTE=Alpha 1-1;23630789] No he doesn't ya moron. You can't get out of debt without changing something. Inaction will lead to even worse depression! Not like you have any idea how to fix up a country now do you?[/QUOTE] We are following the same mistakes as the ones made in the Great Depression. The only way to get out of it right now is war, and that is highly unlikely. Cutting back spending might be something in the right direction. By the way, Facepunch isn't censored. Also, I like how one of Obama's plans to get more jobs going is the national census. Many people will be loosing their jobs when the census is over.

i just wanna forget about obama. too much drama.

[QUOTE=>VLN<;23618549]This is why I feel more comfortable knowing 75% of facepunch don't live in the US. Obama fucking ruined this country.[/QUOTE] Correction Dumbass People ruined this country by letting the government decide for them. [editline]12:04PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Insulator;23624100]I really can't believe you fucks are still feeding into this damn troll. You're really disappointing me facepunch. And your arguments never go anywhere, so why argue in the first place? Damn, it gets annoying.[/QUOTE] Hey buddy if you dont like it then you can get the fuck out.

I dont know why people are rated dumb just because they dont like the president. I think obama isn't really doing anything good, but yet he isnt doing anything bad either. We get somebody like sarah palin as president all hells gonna break loose

I love how everyones criticizing Obama for the deficit like its his fault. And then they go on insane rants which prove that they don't know shit about the economy or what really goes on in this country and they're just attacking the president because he's a democrat (liberal socialist nazi). Honestly, you're just making Obama even more immune to criticism by making up bullshit that no one who is in their right mind would ever believe you and calling it an argument. And VLN you're a dumb ass troll, seriously... Obama ruined this country? What exactly is ruined about this country, for starters? I can guarantee you anything you come up has probably been a problem for longer than Obama was even running for President. If you honestly feel like things are fucked up, just do a little research and you'll see how dumb it is to think that. Things are fine, republicans are screaming that the world is ending, as usual. We're caught in a fucked up war that's in all likeliness causing more problems than its fixing. We're in the same spot we've always been. Shut up please and quit spreading irrational fears and hatred and maybe THEN we'll start to improve things.

What pisses me off about Obama, is that he is a president. He is one man who has a political job. He is not a god among men that shoots hookers out of dual cannons attached to his 9833 Horsepower Minibike. He is a president. He sits on his ass and tries to deal with problems. People are under the impression that he is the best president ever and they are completely wrong, they're just hopping on the bandwagon. Like there is nothing that he has done that couldn't be matched by another president. That being said, he has done some good things, and he has done some bad things.

[quote]People are under the impression that he is the best president ever[/quote] your basis for thinking this?

Nixon > Obama. Nixon = Pure Badass. [B]EDIT: [/B]I never understood why people were so hyped about Obama. The Change slogan, I though, was fucking retarded. I'm getting fucked sideways with my money. I was richer when Bush was president, but now I am giving money so jobless losers can mooch off society. I don't hate Obama, but I am not liking him much right now.

I like obama, he's a cool guy and hasn't been that bad of a president. Besides, you can't judge a president's decisions so early on. It's not until years after can you really study the effects. Unemployment isn't going to vanish overnight.

He's quite mediocre to be honest. I'm not saying he's the ANTICHRIST SOCIALIST DEMON MUSLIM EVIL person that the hicks in this country advertise him as, but he's certainly not a great president.

this is why Facepunch can't have serious discussions

OP I bet you couldnt do any better.

[QUOTE=Insulator;23664517]It's because he's black and facepunch is full of socialists.[/QUOTE] Calling somebody socialist for supporting Obama and his agenda is as retarded as calling a conservative racist because he or she is a conservative.

Buck the fuck up, you can afford it from the sound of it. They aren't lazy moochers, they're just more people that got fucked over by the economy, and it's not like many places are HIRING.

How big of a greedy asshole are you? What about people like me who didn't have heating for 7 years because my divorced mom couldn't afford it with the two jobs that she was pushing? I would [B]kill[/B] to live in a modern middle-class home.

To sum up this thread and many others like it: Bush did it.
