Actually I'm in that crappy in between sports that got screwed. It's all well and good to give free phones, Healthcare, food, etc. to the REALLY needy, but I make just enough that I don't qualify for reduced cost Healthcare or ANY other assistance, but not enough to afford the now inflated cost of such things. If you help the vast minority of people at the cost of the rest of your people then you are not doing your job effectively.

Obama made me miss bush, and i hated bush. it is sad when you are worse than the glue eater.
Are you fucking serious. Obama. Made. You. Miss. Bush.
When Obama came to power, US was in the middle of a financial crisis, US was in the middle of a war and was losing jobs. But now, the country is in a much better shape altogether and consistently producing more and more jobs and decreasing the unemployment. Obama's biggest campaign promise was that he will end the Iraq war and he successfully did it. He also brought back a lot of troops involved in Afghanistan leaving only a small presence.
When Bush came into office, there was a large surplus and peace. The economy was doing great. When Bush left, a huge deficit was left. He could have done so much more for 9/11. He supported the Iraq war!
Tell me again you miss Bush.
You do, of course, realize that when one term ends there is a continuation of the things set in motion by the previous president right? When Bush took office it didn't completely reset the economic clock. Likewise, Obama simply cannot take credit for the things set in motion by his predecessor. Ending a war is fantastic. Yes. However the crumbling of the middle class really needs top stop being overlooked.
I'm thrilled at the steps the country has taken toward taking race and gender out of the political picture, but good grief, don't buy into one tiny piece of each puzzle and glorify someone who really is not doing good things for this country overall.
