President Barack Obama's two biggest legislative triumphs -- a healthcare overhaul and financial regulatory reform -- have become liabilities for his fellow Democrats campaigning for the Nov. 2 U.S. congressionalelections.
Some business leaders say Obama's regulatory and fiscal policies have created too much uncertainty, and promptedcompanies to sit on their cash rather than add jobs or invest.
Republicans have vowed to repeal the healthcare reformlegislation if they win majorities in Congress.

He was “victorious” in pushing through his agenda with the help of the Dems, despite the opposition of the American people. The problem is Obama’s agenda is a disaster for the country and the American people.
He certainly failed in helping the US, whose president he is, but he never did have the intention to help the US economy.

I challenge ALL commie ‘RAT candidates to use their vote for passage of ObamaCare as a reason for the voters to vote for them again. If they don’t trumpet the passage of Obamacare in their campaign ads, they are lying commie cowards that do not deserve to be reelected.

This is the problem with the lamestream media. How can two items hated by the American public be “Victories”? They are total failures and were considered that by even the Dims when they passed. Bart Stupak is just one example.

Precisely. I read that also - how can they be labeled "victories" when his own RAT party is running away from them? Only in today's state run lame stream media do you get this type of psychobabble.

His next victory, dumping the Bush tax cuts, will have a great many more unemployed people voting against him in 2011. Democrats mock “trickle down economics,” but they don’t understand reality well enough to know that all economics are trickle down, good and bad, and these clowns are all bad.

That is such an excellent article. Bravo for passing it around. It is a must read!
To: spokeshave
"So who was Barack Obama Sr.? He was a Luo tribesman who grew up in Kenya and studied at Harvard. He was a polygamist who had, over the course of his lifetime, four wives and eight children. One of his sons, Mark Obama, has accused him of abuse and wife-beating. He was also a regular drunk driver who got into numerous accidents, killing a man in one and causing his own legs to be amputated due to injury in another. In 1982 he got drunk at a bar in Nairobi and drove into a tree, killing himself."
Interesting piece of information there about the Community Organizer in Chief.

Even with a large majority, he had to ram healthcare through, against the protests of the people. How is that a “victory”?
And it is not healthcare “reform.” It is a Communist takeover of the healthcare sector of our country. That is not reform, that is the violent destruction of everything our country has built over centuries to train doctors and nurses, build hospitals, and take care of people.

Obama is childlike. Whenever he gets trapped into talking about a problem or a failure of his performance, he evades with childish bombastic terms.
I cant walk around with my BC on my forehead! I mean like gosh dude, said the thirteen year old.
Well I cant go down there and suck it up with a straw! What do you want me to do about it?,said the fourteen year old.
See the pattern? The guy is mentally stunted.
