So you admit, it was all important enough that you desire that I reply line by line..^_^ sorry, it isn't my candidates that have been deified to the point of messiah status.

your right. your party doesn't even especially like their candidate. they are stuck with him, and her.
the democrats are fortunate enough to have a candidate they are excited about. excited enough to talk about him, rather than the opponent. that's all you have, and all you have run on. attacks.
you are a bore, as a candidacy. the country is tired of your tactics, and you will lose because of them. and you should. divisiveness had it's day. it is past. good luck with it. continue with it. america will leave you behind. it will pass you by, and you will miss out on the next great growth spurt in american maturity.
or come along for the ride.
what will you do if he wins? how will you eat all these words?

Sorry folks, those aren't significant accomplishments, the Senator on the Number 10 clip couldn't even name one. Running for President, and "working to achieve stuff" are not Significant accomplishments.
If you don't consider those accomplishments (those listed in my link) than what in the world do you consider McCain's accomplishments to be? Or Palin's? (and her winning the beauty pagent doesn't count).

McCain's a decorated War Hero and Governor Palin has commanded Troops under her. Obama has done nothing but run for President; Michelle Obama even admitted that on the video clip.

the first black editor of the harvard law review, the most prestigious in the country. won't it be refreshing to have someone brilliant in the white house?

turning his back on a humungous paycheck after graduation and going to serve a community in need.

one marriage, one wife, two beautiful children.

only black man in the u.s. senate.

bi-partisan bill sponsorship to control loose nukes, with sen. lugar (r).

beating the clinton political juggernaut.


his next big accomplishment will be recorded on tuesday. you'll never guess what it is.

You don't even know what McCain's and Palin's accomplishments are and yet you'll come on here and embarass yourself over Obama's accomplishments. Here's a clip fromt the link I posted that you obviously don't want to read.

"** First legislation, the HOPE Act, which increased Pell Grants to $5100, and later joined Senator Kennedy on the Higher Education legislation that passed July 20, by a vote of 78-18. That legislation also included funding for Predominantly Black Colleges to assist with counseling, tutoring and other needs of low income students. It also creates the Teaching Residency Act which will create a school-based teacher preparation program in high needs schools to provide each teacher with a mentor, content instruction, classroom management skills, a master’s degree and state certification, and a 2 year follow-up program.


**The Coburn-Obama Government Transparency Act of 2006
is an act that requires the full disclosure of all entities or organizations receiving federal funds beginning in fiscal year (FY) 2007 on a website maintained by the Office of Management and Budget.

**The Lugar-Obama Nuclear Non-proliferation and Conventional Weapons Threat Reduction Act
Authored by U.S. Sens. Dick Lugar (R-IN) and Barack Obama (D-IL), the Lugar-Obama initiative expands U.S. cooperation to destroy conventional weapons. It also expands the State Department's ability to detect and interdict weapons and materials of mass destruction.

WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. Senators Barack Obama (D-IL), Chuck Hagel (R-NE), and Maria Cantwell (D-WA) and Congressman Adam Smith (D-WA) today hailed the Senate Foreign Relations Committee's passage of the Global Poverty Act (S.2433), which requires the President to develop and implement a comprehensive policy to cut extreme global poverty in half by 2015 through aid, trade, debt relief, and coordination with the international community, businesses and NGOs. This legislation was introduced in December. Smith and Congressman Spencer Bachus (R-AL) sponsored the House version of the bill (H.R. 1302), which passed the House last September.

....and note NONE of those were considered Significant by that Senator on the Vid that supports obama, no mention of it whatsoever.

and on the same vid. none of obama's supporters named any of these because apparently they must not have been significant enough.

Sorry, again Nice Try. Good Filler material though:thumbsup:

What are you talking about? It's his record, regardless of whatever video you're referring to.

Listing accomplishments...answering your question is filler? That's odd. Obviously a lot of supporters are not familiar with their candidate's of choice accomplishments. You are included in that bunch are you not? 2:1 I have combed McCain's website and his voting record to a greater degree than you have, let alone Obama's.

What's not listed on the site is Obama confronting McCain on his dubious position regarding the expansion of the GI bill (surprise surprise). That's one that always gets my goat so I usually bring it up. There is absolutely no argument that Obama prioritizes education. This can been in the hope act for pell grants. And McCain's non-prioritizing of education can be seen in his position on the expansion of the GI bill. Now, I realize you may have no idea what I'm talking about but I figured I'd mention it just in case.

Ah. So that's the way this works.

A: What has Obama ever accomplished
B: How about these? (lists accomplishments. )
A: Nah, those don't count.

I think I hear the sound of moving goalposts.

If there was anything significant, the Senator who supported obama would've named them. Yeah that is the way it works. Nothing significant.
Actually no, that isn't the way it works. I have no idea what your accomplishments are but that doesn't mean you don't have any. Your entire arugment is a train wreck. Learn from it and move on.

Anyways, This thread is what's called the spaghetti attack...

throw everything you have and see what sticks.

It turns out nothing stuck, and i refuted all 50 of your points, so unless you want to do a counter-refute i'm going to call it /thread.

P.S. if you want to argue obama's accomplishments, maybe you should start a thread devoted specifically to that? Rather than post a nonsense list of 50 things and then cherry pick out the one you want to talk about.
