The Utter Failure of Obama

By Bruce Walker
September 22, 2014

Barack Obama is destined to be the greatest flop in American presidential history. He is, in every sense of the word, an utter failure.

Consider first his signature achievement, Obamacare. Not only has Obama had to delay implementation, creating a perfect precedent for his Republican successor to do the same, but the law is more unpopular today than it has ever been according to all polling data.

Pew Research reports that 55% of Americans disapprove of Obamacare. A clear plurality of Americans believe that they will be worse off because of Obamacare. CBS News lists the “strongly approve” of Obamacare at 16%, while “strongly disapprove” is a whopping 47%. Every polling organization, no matter how the question is worded, shows the same public disdain for this law.

The fear conservatives had that a new entitlement will create a permanent constituency may not happen this time, because Obamacare, unlike Social Security or Medicare, helps almost no one and hurts a lot of people. Moreover, by foolishly rejecting a bipartisan reform, Obama and his party cannot claim broad support for his law.

This political hack, who had the power to do anything during his first two years, could think of nothing more imaginative than (1) spending federal dollars like water based upon the ancient and failed “stimulus” idea and (2) implementing an even greater failure – ask any Briton or Canadian – of nationalized health insurance simply, one suspects, because Barry had no keener mind or greater imagination than to pick up tired ideas of British Socialism eighty years old.

Obama, who “won” the Nobel Peace Prize almost as soon as he took office, is now officially a warmonger president – but one who leads from behind and rejects every attempt to form a national consensus policy, and whose utter haplessness in guiding national security is stunning. Syria, Libya, Ukraine, Iraq – everywhere in the world, really – Obama’s foreign policy has been almost comic opera.

Obama's White House staff seems almost as incompetent as he is, as anyone who has listened to Ms. Harf for more than a minute quickly grasps. Everyone around Obama simply reads talking points and denies, without any support at all, anything that challenges those talking points.

Has anyone around Obama, for example, confessed that the attack in Benghazi was not caused by an anti-Islamic film, and that any explanations to the contrary were simple invention? Has Barry or his “Not Ready for Prime Time Players” ever acknowledged any failure beyond the ubiquitous and meaningless mantra “I accept full responsibility”? Who truly trusts Obama anymore on national security issues, and who abroad relies on anything he says or any promises he makes?

Even when Obama has supposedly accomplished a goal, when it blows up in his face as Obamacare, the Iraqi withdrawal, and the Arab Spring, Obama blames everyone other than himself and his flawed decisions. Then there's the ineptness of favorable support of the wrong groups like the Muslim Brotherhood. Who and what is the real Obama?

 

Obama sucks, BIG TIME! He's just putrid garbage. But as much as I HATE his feeble, weak assss and his ugly wife, I'd vote for him again just to keep the Tea Party out.

 

It's that two-party crap that's destroying the country. We can't get effective leadership because the two fail parties have cornered the market, so to speak.

 

o Economy that was tanking at a -9% rate and shedding 700,000+ jobs a month turned around
o 53 straight months of private sector employment growth.
o 115% increase in the stock markets since taking office
o Halved the deficit in 4 years.
o Got Osama bin Laden.
o Saved 2-3 million jobs with stimulus package
o First decrease in spending in a year in decades - 3 times.
o Stock markets up 160% since bottom of the recession in 2009
o Over 9.7 million additional private sector jobs created since Jan 2010
o Oil production increasing for the first time in decades.
o Ousted Muamar Kadaffi at 1/1000 the cost of the Iraq war
o Deficit reduced by a then record $207 billion, down 16%, in 2012.
o Deficit reduced by a new record $407 billion, down 37%, in 2013
o Record corporate profits
o Passed health care reform that will provide coverage to tens of millions of Americans
o 4 straight years of GDP growth
o Unemployment rate dropped from 10% to 6.1%
o U.S. becomes world's top petroleum and energy producer
o Passed financial regulation reform to prevent another housing bubble fiasco.
o Diplomatically coerced Syria to give up WMD without war or loss of single American life.
o Recovered all jobs lost in the worst recession in 80 years
o Lowest rate of spending increases of any president in modern history
o On-budget deficit has decreased every full fiscal year he's been in office.
o US domestic oil use decreasing
o Net creation of millions of people employed despite inheriting a economy losing 700,000+ jobs a month.

If Obama were a white Republican, conservatives would be hailing him as a savior.

 

iremon

By the time your dear leader leaves the whitehouse, he will be responsible for HALF THE NATIONAL DEBT ever run up by all the rest of the presidents combined!!!!!!!!

 

Bingo! We have a winner! Too often a president sucks, so Americans in the "middle" just end up voting for "the other guy", as if that makes sense! What if I want to vote for someone who represents the values that Obama the assswhole claimed to and not a conservative ********** a/k/a "the other guy", where can I turn?

 

Agree 100% that the Ohole sucks. That said I would vote for him in a flash over Al Sharpton.

 

I'm pretty sure you will not get a response

Not a sensible one
The only response you will get from the right wingers
Will be a personal attack on you

You will not get a sensible rebuttal

 

Wehrwolven KNEW Obama was a failure the first time he saw him.

 

Some facts you should know about ACA

Number one
It is a Health Care Insurance mandate that originally presented by a conservative think tank
That was put together by the heritage foundation
Number two
It is a copy of the health plan signed into law in the state of Massachusetts by a republican governor
Number three
And when the republican governor signed the Health Care plan he stated then that it would be great for the nation be cause this way everyone pays
In 2008 when running in the republican primaries he said the Health Care plan would be great for the nation and if elected he would work to have this plan Nationwide

Number four
throughout his campaign in 2008 obama promised to work to get the Health Care plan we have

Yes he stole a republican idea

 

The two party system is a myth
There are no rules or Laws restricting how many political parties there are
In fact there are more than 15 political parties in the United States

 

And what is your response to post number eight
Remember obama accomplish these things listed and post number eight
Even though the republicans in Congress did everything to try and stop him from accomplishing anything

 

Reagan tripled the national debt and conservatives want to add him to Mt Rushmore.

 

If Obama were a white person, speaking somewhat as he did in 2007 of EITHER party, he would never have been elected in the first place. I'd also suggest many of those that voted for him, regardless of the reason, now are the ones most disappointed....if not now, when the effects on his economy and geopolitical affairs come to a head and that's getting closer by the day.

As for the list, I'd love to argue with the author on virtually any one point, but to discuss or argue with someone who actually believes the author, would seem useless.....

 

What's tiresome is the constant:

Right: Obama can do no right.
Left: Obama can do no wrong

Right: Bush can do no wrong.
Left: Bush can do no right.

To which I call Presidential Derangement syndrome.

That crap really does seem to be a mental illness.

 

First glance at this I noticed you wrote "got osama bin laden". Obama didn't know that the CIA and the MILITARY had eyes on bin laden until right before his death. Obama had no idea there was a search involved in that region, as they stumbled upon his home. That would have happened if anyone was president. Also, it took Obama 16 hours to say "yes, kill him". 16 hours??? really?

I hate people like you that for some reason give Obama credit for this, yet deny his involvement in anything negative. How about thanking your military personnel?

 

Are you sure it's not be cause you can't prove Any part of the post wrong

 

someone has a political opinion you disagree with and you hate them
So much hate

 

Did you read my comment? Please read again. I don't care about their political opinions, I hate how they gave a POLITICIAN credit for something the MILITARY did. I'd be just as offended if Bush were in the White House. I'm moderate....I don't hate anyone's beliefs.

Again, please read more carefully.

 

Maybe I am mistaken
Please read the last sentence in your post

Without citing sources and data, this is nothing but lip service.
