That's all you will get from the radical right. They are so brainwashed they think everything Obama has done to better the country, no matter what is a bad thing.

The problem is you say 1 and 2 like those are good things.
They are good things, unless you think negative GDP growth, tens of millions of uninsured people, and no effort at all to control medical costs are good things.

After the stimulus was passed we stopped losing 750,000 jobs a month. Calling it a failure reveals that you might be an uninformed FOX viewer.

The best thing to control medical costs would be for BOTH the insurance industry AND government to get the heck out of the way!

Problem solved!

I was surprised Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act was so low on the list. It is first or second on my list. That was a disgusting action by the SCOTUS, glad Obama got it fixed.

An impressive list in light of the fact he only had a dem controlled filibuster proof senate for less than a year.

• First President to Defy a Federal Judge's Court Order to Cease Implementing the 'Health Care Reform' Law

• First President to halt deportations of illegal aliens and grant them work permits, a form of stealth amnesty roughly equivalent to "The DREAM Act", which could not pass Congress


A good many more can be found at Doug Ross @ Journal: President Barack Obama's Complete List of Historic Firsts [Updated]

This is a much better description of what Darth Barry brought to us than that first (and bogus) list did. Nice post.

Can't wait until November. Battle RED.
