Mugato: Marcus Aurelius: Which failed policies, specifically? I hear this a lot, but no one ever points to anything specific.

His policy of letting the republicans obstructing everything to the point of torpedoing the economy in the name of petty partisanship.

There's also his failed policy of being black.

edmo: A war ended. OBL dead. Economy recovering. Health care reformed. What's to get excited about?

I've said it before, but...if it were a Republican president in the White House when Osama Bin Laden was taken out, Ghaddfi toppled without the loss of a single American life, GM and Chrysler returned to health and the Dow shooting over 13,000 the biggest debates on Fox News would be "Why hasn't Mount Rushmore been updated yet?" and "Why just put this president on the $10? Why not put him on the $5 shaking hands with Abe? The $1 getting a high-five from Washington?"

That same crowd at a teabagger rally would be estimated by breitbart.com to top 275,000.

You haven't seen any change during Obama's Presidency?

I know I'm feeding the troll and I'm sorry but as long as I've been here I still can't comprehend the troll mind or why they do what they do and I take what people say at face value, no matter how absurd.

To understand the troll, you must free yourself from reality or social niceties and fark the hypothetical chicken. You must BE the chicken farker.

Politicians running for office should hire the WWE as consultants for this. If there is anyone out there that can hide an empty arena and make it look like a sellout, its them

MSFT: Lenny_da_Hog: Chakro: The reason.

Yes. The rich are having a really tough time of it these past few years.

Tell me about it! I almost considered sending my kid to a public school things have been so bad.

I had to let my Mexican gardeners go and have been buying regular gas!

That's right Breitbart. Obama isn't some messianic figure to the left anymore. His charisma isn't going to be bringing people to the voting booth. He isn't the revolutionary figure the right or left thought he would be. The novelty of electing a black president is gone. He's still going to win.

SkinnyHead: There's another alternative. If you think both candidates are bad, don't vote for either one of them. When you vote for the lesser of two evils, you're really voting for the evil of two lessers.

That doesn't even make any sense.

I love the way the insanity escalates in the comments.

to paraphrase:

Obama Weather Underground Communist derp
OMG how can you be so blind Obama Mao Marx derp
It's worse than that Obama tool of the jews derp
Secret Arab plot derp

and so on

Notabunny: Romney supporters showing their overwhelming enthusiasm in Detroit

cman: I love bashing Obama. He is my favorite politician to shiat all over. But, really, there are things that Obama does not have control over. People think that Obama is this magical man with a big red button that says "Press to Create Jobs". He's not. He is like a bolt in a car that is holding up the driver's side door. Just another piece in a complicated machine.

SkinnyHead: The enthusiasm for Obama is certainly gone. People are getting tired of his big talk. And without big talk, what else does he got going for him?

The enthusiasm for Obama is certainly gone. People are getting tired of his big talk. And without big talk, what else does he got going for him?

Dancin_In_Anson: cameroncrazy1984: He can't seem to name any actual policies. Can you?

His energy policy farking blows.

In the short term, sure. Obama is pursuing a long term energy independence policy. It will be longer term than several presidential terms. And we, as a nation, have the attention span of flies.

Marcus Aurelius: cameroncrazy1984: Marcus Aurelius: Meanwhile I'm still waiting for my failed policy examples.

He failed to not get Osama bin Laden and that's not fair because the Republicans were supposed to get him, dammit!

No hints. He claims he's got a list of failed policies, he's got to come up with them on his own.

I can hardly wait.

It's on the same sheet of paper that lists the 60 Democratic senators.

Marcus Aurelius: Meanwhile I'm still waiting for my failed policy examples.

he failed to be white?

If the 2007-2009 recession was Bush's fault. The jobless and anemic recovery since then would fall squarely on the shoulders of Obama.

That might be the case if the GOP hadn't actively tried to sabotage every single proposal coming out of the White House since 2009. It's gotten so bad that Obama can't even come out in favor of a proposal without the GOP frothing at the mouth. They're like rabid dogs at this point. Obama could propose eliminating all taxes on the wealthy and the GOP would shoot it down.

You obviously forgot that the democrats had a super majority in the senate and could pass anything they wanted.

Deadmoran's funeral was SRO

/obviously a much more popular event

deadmoran.com finally snuck one through.

This means Sarah Palin is automatically president and Obama has to take the blame for my fantasy baseball team's horrible showing so far this season.

the arena is as empty of people as Obama is of ideas on how to improve the economy. I sympathize with the recent college graduates that aren't able to pay off their student loans because they can't find jobs. I also sympathize for the millions of people that have quit looking for work and done their democratic duty by falling off the unemployment rolls to keep the number low for him.
