So what great things has Obama done?

He'll cut funding for food inspections, clean air and water regulations, and continue pandering to the elites that own this country.

What's not to be embarrassed about?

Other than you having nothing to hang your self-aggrandizing indignation on except wild and baseless speculation about what a President Romney might do, what makes you think you can predict what Romney will do?

I would be embarrassed to vote for someone who cut Medicare to fund new spending AFTER the money was taken from worker's paychecks, and this was done whether they liked it or not.

How about you hold off on the "tax the rich" moral chest thumping until your beloved Democrats return the money they stole from working Americans.

His basic resume is:
- ARRA (you can google it if you don't know what that means and you can google the CBO analysis before complaining about it)
- Got bin Laden
- Bailed out Detroit thus saving hundreds of thousands of jobs and a lot of pensions
- Gays in the military
- Healthcare Reform (largely an amalgamation of what the Republicans tried to do in the 90's and what Romney did in Mass). 5 other Presidents had failed in the attempt
- Financial reform
- Got out of Iraq
- Reduction of troops in Afghanistan

Most of the dirt that people throw at him is just due to the economic conditions. None of the right wingers here want to give an objective analysis and own up to the mess that the right left for him before he took office.

Overall, he's done a good job in a horrible situation. I'd rather his comedy much higher than his performance in office though.

Or another view;

No progress on social issues, still opposes legalization of drugs, prostitution and gambling.

No progress on wars. Still loves to spend our tax money on useless wars such as Afghanistan, the war on drugs, the war on poverty.

No progress on the economy.

No progress on reducing government spending.

No progress on getting government out of our lives.

Huge progress on growing federal government power.

etc, etc.
