How about 29 straight months of private sector job growth?
Killed Osama Bin Laden? No matter what people list, there's already massive spin and billions of dollars saying it's not true, or something someone else did, lol. Kinda pointless.

Well, that's easy. He... he... ah.... well, I think he did something. Oh yea, he bailed out the fat cat bankers. That was good, right? He won the Nobel prize for not doing ANYTHING. Doesn't get better than that.

The President of the US is not the government, it's been generations since a President has done more than shake hands and smile for the cameras.
On the international stage though he represents America. In that respect Obama has managed to eliminate most of the animosity towards America in one fell swoop. Romney's disastrous tour abroad should remind people goodwill abroad isn't only for claps, it brings big money contracts, and the possibility to forward America's agenda without half the planet wanting it's distruction.. |

Above all though... Bin Laden was executed under his watch. The guy actually responsible for 9-11 and what the previous limp dicked admin couldn't follow thru on (and didn't care).

Code:
As American troops head out of Iraq, U.S. officials are being forced to bring in more private security contractors. The withdrawal of the remaining troops from Iraq - 33,000 at last count ? has caused U.S. officials to move quickly to fill a series of security gaps Code:
According to new statistics released by the Pentagon, with Barack Obama as commander in chief, there has been a 23% increase in the number of "Private Security Contractors" working for the Department of Defense in Iraq in the second quarter of 2009 and a 29% increase in Afghanistan Code:
the one group that has seen demand explode since Obama became president is the number of private security contractors Code:
The State Department is asking Congress to approve funds to more than double the number of private security contractors in Iraq with a State Department official testifying in June at a hearing of the Wartime Contracting Commission that the Department wants "between 6,000 and 7,000 security contractors." The Department also has asked the Pentagon for twenty-four Blackhawk helicopters, fifty Mine-Resistant Ambush-Protected (MRAP) vehicles and other military equipment. "After the departure of U.S. Forces [from Iraq], we will continue to have a critical need for logistical and life support of a magnitude and scale of complexity that is unprecedented in the history of the Department of State," wrote Patrick Kennedy, under secretary of state for management, in an April letter to the Pentagon. "And to keep our people secure, Diplomatic Security requires certain items of equipment that are only available from the military." What is unfolding is the face of President Obama's scaled-down, rebranded mini-occupation of Iraq. Under the terms of the Status of Forces agreement, all US forces are supposed to be out of Iraq by the end of 2011. Using private forces is a backdoor way of continuing a substantial US presence under the cover of "diplomatic security."

It's completely relevant to the "what has Obama done" premise. It's one of those little things that is carted out to make it seem that one president is evil incarnate, while with others it's necessary expenditures. Lets not be naive and pretend that it's not election cycle spin. And naturally here comes other people saying anything Obama can legitimately take credit for was done by other people What hasn't Obama done? Carted his dog on his rooftop, lmfao. Hidden money in offshore bank accounts. (lol?) Uh oh, here comes more nonsense spin! Just call it what it is.

Obama can not take credit for the level of spending (every 5th grader knows the president suggests a budget, the congress creates the budget). People say there has been X amount of job growth. Someone posts an "obstructionist" meme. I would like to thank the republican controlled congress for creating a budget that is less increase of spending than previous budgets. That obstructed Obama's plan to destroy the economy and set us back on the path for prosperity, despite the job killing bill that is Obamacare?

I read a news article today from a main stream news site (I forget which) that polled Americans asking if they were better off today than they were before Obama, and the majority said they weren't. I'm surprised.
I did a post here on GFY documenting how bad things were when the recession hit, taking photos of construction projects that just stopped half way through - We had two condo complexes with half built shells and a restaurant where they build the shell but eventually tore it down. Our town was growing and growing quickly - we were one of the fastest growing cities over a ten year period - and suddenly everything just stopped. My street alone has exactly twenty houses on it, and at the height of the recession exactly half of them were empty and our neighborhood was a ghost town. It was strange. Now all of the houses are occupied except for two, one because they divorced and the other because he decided to buy a larger house for a lot less on the other side of town. My wife was out of work for nearly two years, and now she's been working full time for the past year. I'm doing well too. Everyone I know locally has jobs and is happy. I'm sorry, it doesn't matter who was in office. The only solution for this problem is time, and that's a fact. Some of the things Obama did might have helped, or maybe not so much. But this also isn't a four or eight year problem. This will take us ten years to get back to "normal". And even then, we'll never be the same again. We've changed and we are scared it might happen again.

Where he has succeeded so far:
- Kept the auto industry in business - Repealed Dont Ask Dont Tell - Got the tea party asshats to raise the debt ceiling and avoid America defaulting on our debts - Shrank our military footprint in Iraq (slower than I'd have liked) - Was willing to extend our reach into Pakistan, including the Bin Laden assault but even more importantly into a broader campaign along the afghan/pakistani border. He deserves a LOT of credit for zero terrorist attacks on US soil during his entire tenure so far. - Improved Our relationships with most other industrialized nations (Hillary deserves a lot of credit for that as well) Where he has failed miserably: - GITMO is still open and the rule of law is still being ignored (there is NO excuse for this) - Unemployment has remained absurdly high (due as much to the GOP as the Dems) - He allowed his own party to bitch slap him and gave away a chance at single payer REAL health care reform - Allowed gas prices to become an accelerant for inflation (gas need not be $4 per gallon right now) - Failed to put teeth in energy regulation... still no arrests over the BP oil spill - Allowed the Elizabeth Warren credit regulations to become watered down completely Overall I'd give him a C- for his first four years. I'd give Clinton a B and George W Bush an F. My expectation is that 4 more years of Obama will be a C+ at best, but Romney and Ryan is likely to be an F. In short, his greatest accomplishment as President is that he has not been as bad as Romney would be. It is shameful that Obama and Romney are the best two candidates for America to choose. Citizens United is the real problem, not the Democrats or the Republicans... the people who own them both. |

But I do agree that things will never be the same. And it will happen again, and it will be worse because they did not fix the root of the problem and borrowed and printed even more money. The next blow isn't going to be so easy to put another band-aid on. There won't be any more Government money to bail out companies and banks. So what should have happened already, will eventually happen. It's only a matter of time. |

We had about 160 thousand military personnel in Iraq many of which belonged to Combat Arms units. These forces have been withdrawn from Iraq. There has been additional private security personnel (private security has been in Iraq pretty much from the start of the occupation) hired to help protect US assets that had previously been protected by US military personnel. Private security such as "Black Water" type of security personnel are not Combat Arms units...they are lightly armed security personnel. There is not 160 US "mercenaries" in Iraq/Afghanistan...at best they are a few thousand "Black Water" type security personnel. Ignorant conspiracy type expat mother fuckers...such as yourself...spew out misinformation and exaggerations...pigshit in other words.

Obama is taking heat for problems that he inherited. He did some good things, not enough but better than the Bush years. THe Affordable healthcare act is better than nothing, not good enough. He has stimulated innovation with lots of grants, stimulated education, and most important has not driven us back into the dark ages.
Most Americans do not know the largest middle class tax cuts was by Obama by reducing FICA, (Social Security) taxes therefore increasing net paychecks of working people. He has never touted much of what he did. |
