Conversation between a D and a R

[Bear]

D: Bush, or as I call him *, was the worst president ever. Illegally started wars, invaded our privacy, was always on vacation, a fucking moron, made millions (as did his buddies) from high oil prices, and now the entire world hates us.

R: Well, President Obama is a socialist.

D: OMFG! How dare you insult the President like that?!?! You're a racist!

Me and a D

D: I'm sick of people shitting on Obama, claiming he hasn't done squat.

M: Well, just retort with his accomplishments. Go ahead, tell me some.

D: Um.. (pauses) Well, think where we would be if McCain got elected? Or heaven forbid, he died and then that airhead Palin would be President!

M: No, Obama's accomplishments, not what ifs.

D: That's not the point! If McCain got elected, we would be at war with Iran, our economy would be worse....

Without getting into a huge political debate, (I hate politics, plus I fall somewhere in the middle) here are some of his accomplishments (some funny). I'm only posting this because I feel a lot of your anti obama posts are you labeling ALL democrats based your democratic friends' attitudes or based on something one person says. I'm not trying to preach here.

Please note that I don't intend to paint all Democrats the same, it's only been based upon my personal experience. And as a side note, I'm a registered Independent.

The 10 items can easily be argued as window dressing, to be perfectly honest. Health care hasn't passed, they spent $85MM on their recovery website, job numbers are completely unreliable, there already are tax credits (if one itemizes their deductions) for tuition, new research says cash-for-clunkers was actually a clusterfuck, Pakistan is still the same (if not worse) as it was before he took office, $2B for gang control seems like excess and would be better spent on police payroll, engaging the Muslim world brought us Ft. Hood, saving trees is a good thing, and I think everyone agrees he's a great speaker but I wouldn't consider it to be an accomplishment. Maybe I'm just being nit-picky but I still don't see any real substance nor real results, only promises.
