The History of Obama

[Gozreht]

Barack Hussein Obama:




Who is this man? Why did we vote for him four years ago? Why is he going to be re-elected? Look at his history and you decide.




In his 20's.

• He graduated from Columbia University and Harvard Law School, with honors. He served as president of Harvard Law Review. He studied to be a lawyer. That is the first warning sign. He studied to learn how to twist words so that no one can understand. But don't call him articulate because you would be a racist.
  
• He worked as a "community organizer" for three years. No one to this day can understand what that job entailed or why it was important.
  

In his 30's

• He worked as a part-time lawyer and law school lecturer. The question is why couldn't he be a full time lawyer? What exactly is a "lecturer"? Apparently he wasn't good enough to become a full-time lawyer, nor a "professor".
  
• Ahh, but maybe he didn't have time since he started to write his autobiographies already. Wow, to be this young, non-vital to any system yet be so important that he would write his own story.
  
• He married Michelle and had two girls. No one ever said he was a bad husband or father. So it will never be said here either.
  
• After no major lawyer firm would hire him, he ran for Illinois State Senate and served for 7 years. He had no leadership role after 7 years. He wrote no legislation. He voted "present" over 100 times instead of making any decisions. Probably because he started to hang out with American terrorists like William Ayers. He started going to a church that taught hatred from Rev. Wright.
  

In his 40's

• He ran for US Senate from Illinois and beat Alan Keyes in 2004. He served four years, only 2/3 of what people elected him for. No leadership role. No legislation that amounted to anything. But oh my, he gave a very articulate very well typed speech at the DNC making a name for himself and planting the seed to move on to his next useless endeavor. He started his presidential run only 304 days after his start in the Senate.
  
• He stated that adding trillions to the debt was unpatriotic and irresponsible. Meanwhile not putting his hand over his heart while others said the pledge.
  
• His wife added that for the first time in history she was proud of her country.
  
• He promised to cut the deficit, he promised lower unemployment rates, he promised to bring the troops home from day one. He promised to work with other political parties. He promised the most transparent administration in history. He said he would sit down personally with rogue leaders. He said he would shut down Guantanamo Bay and bring prisoners here on our soil. It is said he made 500 promises but has kept 120 of them. The problem lies with the ones he kept. http://politics.blogs.foxnews.com/2011/04/05/brief-look-candidate-obamas-2008-http://politics.blogs.foxnews.com/2011/04/05/brief-look-candidate-obamas-2008-http://politics.blogs.foxnews.com/2011/04/05/brief-look-candidate-obamas-2008-campaign-promisescampaign-promises
  
• He said the Mid-West people cling to guns and religion. He said abortion was above his pay grade.
  
• He became president in 2009.
  
• He picked Joe Biden to the VP.
  
• He won the Nobel Peace Prize for a speech. No actions, just a speech.
  

In his 50's

• He passed an $800 billion stimulus that failed. He promised the unemployment rate would drop to below 6% after four years. Not once, has it come close. For 45 straight months unemployment has been over 8% with one dip to 7.8%. And these numbers only reflect those who are still actually looking for a job.
  
• He has added $5 trillion in new debt in less than four years, fastest growing debt of any president in history. Not just largest in history but growing faster as well. So much so that we have to borrow even more.
  
• He has bowed to at least three foreign leaders but didn't sit down with them.
  
• He denied the surge for our troops then recanted.
  
• He censored news media that did not show him in a positive way. (FOX News)
  
• He ended the war in Iraq almost 2 years after he said he would.
  
• He went to Turkey and never mentioned the genocide.
  
• He felt like he had to apologize for America being affluent and resourceful.
  
• He shut the GOP out of stimulus meetings. Meanwhile pushing for the investment in failed technology like Solyndra.
  
• He pushed through Congress an illegal vote on Obamacare by allowing extra time for none other than Ohio's Sherrod Brown to come back and vote after the allotted time expired that would have killed the bill in debate. It was passed 60-40. Sixty votes were needed on this type of bill.
  
• He has allowed the highest number of food stamps, the highest number of people on welfare and blames people who earned their money for poverty.
  
• His platform kicks God out and gets booed for helping our greatest Middle-eastern ally.
  
• He has covered up the tragedy n Benghazi by lying about emails from the White House.
  
• He gave the order to kill bin Laden. Good.
  

His answers to all of this:

Any positive results---It is unprecedented.

Any negative results---It's Bush's fault.




The man became president with very little private sector experience. So what made us think he could run a country? He passed no legislation in his 11 years as a senator. So what made us think he could pass legal laws as president? His promises of hope and change had to be changed because we lost hope. So what makes us think he will carry us "forward"?




Even though at mid-term election time the country made the largest (unprecedented) switch in history back to the GOP in Congress (63 DEM voted out), the nation will be stupid enough to vote for him again.

What makes you think experience in the private sector is preparation for running a country?

Belk,
That is a fair question. The word "experience" says a lot. Experience to plan a viable budget. Experience to run the viable budget by finding the right people to do the job and one's that you can trust. Experience to not over spend even when there may be a surplus of resource. Experience to make the right deals. Experience to understand the market. Experience to make lemonade out of lemons if needed. Experience to know when to stop failed policies and not push on just to save face. Experience to understand where the buck stops and not blame other people. Experience...

He has none that is credible. He still has none that is credible and has been running the largest business in the world for almost four years now.

And that is just one of the points I made. If that is the only thing you found disturbing then that is either good or bad. Thank you for asking the question without assuming words or tone.

From whence did that spam e-mail come? I know it's a spam e-mail because it describes a number of events during the president's term that occured before Aug. 4, 2011 when he would have turned 50 under the section "In his 50s".

 

[iluvatar5150]

This is one of the stupidest and laziest OP's (the post, not the poster) I've seen in a while.

He graduated from Columbia University and Harvard Law School, with honors. He served as president of Harvard Law Review. He studied to be a lawyer. That is the first warning sign. He studied to learn how to twist words so that no one can understand.

Yes, it's a warning sign that he was in the top of his class in the top universities for his field of study. God forbid we get someone who's good at what they do.

Mitt Romney also has a JD from Harvard.

He worked as a "community organizer" for three years. No one to this day can understand what that job entailed or why it was important.

No, you don't know what it is. Don't project your ignorance onto the rest of society.

He worked as a part-time lawyer and law school lecturer. The question is why couldn't he be a full time lawyer? What exactly is a "lecturer"? Apparently he wasn't good enough to become a full-time lawyer, nor a "professor". Ahh, but maybe he didn't have time since he started to write his autobiographies already.

Not only is this asinine, but it is also false.

University of Chicago Law School Statement on Barack Obama.

Whomever wrote this has absolutely zero experience with academia.

After no major lawyer firm would hire him, he ran for Illinois State Senate and served for 7 years.

Frankly, anyone who would write this is either a liar or an idiot. He graduated magna cum laude and was president of Harvard Law Review. I live in Boston; I know lawyers who attend or have attended Harvard Law and they're all doing just fine for themselves without having those extra credentials. To think that someone with Obama's credentials couldn't get a job at a law firm in the early 90's (when the market wasn't so saturated) is ludicrous. Some people who get law (or other) degrees choose to go into academia or public service instead of into practicing law.

I'm sure if I felt motivated, I could tear apart the rest of this, too, but I'm not going to bother. In the future, the OP (the poster) would do well to research some of his material before posting it.

1. Mitt is the son of George Romney, former Governor of Michigan and GOP presidential candidate. He was exposed to the "black arts" of American politics during his formative years while Barrack Obama was still a boy in Kenya - far removed from such insidious influences. (STRIKE 1)

2. Mitt Romney was also a Mormon missionaty to France, a nation Americans love to hate. Learning to speak French certainly makes Mitt guilty of "something" - especially among conservatives. (STRIKE 2)

3. Mitt Romney graduated Juris Doctor/Master of Business Administration from a four-year program coordinated between Harvard Law School and Harvard Business School. This is precisely where "Gozreht," the OP, insists the Barrack Obama learned "how to twist words so that no one can understand."
Where the OP is remiss was that he failed to mention that Romney and Obama both took many of the same courses at the same school - Harvard Law. (STRIKE 3)

To our fundamentalist Christians who call Obama a non Christian:
Bill Maher talks to an Ex-Mormon - Real Time - YouTube

 

[AmericanSamurai]

Apparently though, if you're a liberal woman, Obama is the man you want to sleep with for the first time if you're a virgin. lol

 

[jgarden]

Apparently though, if you're a liberal woman, Obama is the man you want to sleep with for the first time if you're a virgin. lol

I find such a comment morally reprehensible - particularily in a Christian thread and from somene who claims to be a Christian(Baptist)!

reprehensible - blameworthy, bad, disgraceful, shameful, delinquent, errant, unworthy, objectionable, culpable, ignoble, discreditable, remiss, erring, opprobrious, condemnable, censurable

Info from reuters.com, businessweek.com, whitehouse.gov, treasurydirect.gov, and NBC News broadcasting. But I added my opinion as well. Free country, for now.

So, the age is the worse thing you saw? Okay. I recant. He was in his 40's for a lot of it. I apologize.

This is one of the stupidest and laziest OP's (the post, not the poster) I've seen in a while.

Stupid I can handle. Lazy, not quite. It took a while to gather this stuff. But perception is reality. I guess I can handle that too.

Yes, it's a warning sign that he was in the top of his class in the top universities for his field of study. God forbid we get someone who's good at what they do.

Mitt Romney also has a JD from Harvard.

Don't like Romney either. The message was about lawyers.

No, you don't know what it is. Don't project your ignorance onto the rest of society.

Thank you.

So your biggest problem is the lawyers issue and his education. By the way Master of Education, Miami University of Ohio, 19 years experience in public schools teaching. Research is part of what I do. The things he did as a "leader" is what is most important. You can all pick apart his life and the so-called discrepencies but not when it comes to his record. Sorry.

But you have your opinion and I have mine. If I had to choose between idiot and liar I would choose idiot. So thanks. But at least I am not both like the president.

I am glad the argument is about lawyers and not his record. I don't like Romney either.

Why would you? She was referring to a TV ad that says voting for Obama is like doing it for the first time. The commercial is reprehensible.

Your blog claims that you referenced another document that cited those, not that you referenced those sources directly. What was this other document?

Frankly, I'm amazed you tried to legitimize this by trying to cite sources - the part I analyzed was so rife with error, even a quick google search showed how ludicrous it was.

-Dan.

 

[iluvatar5150]

So your biggest problem is the lawyers issue and his education.

No, my biggest problem is your propagating gross distortions borne out of either ignorance or dishonesty. I focused on the points I did because they were at the top of the list and they were the easiest to knock down at 3am. Looking over the rest of the points, I find a number of them to be untrue on their faces as well.

By the way Master of Education, Miami University of Ohio, 19 years experience in public schools teaching. Research is part of what I do.

Interesting. I have trouble turning of my "work brain" when I come home - how did you manage to so completely abandon your professional training while compiling this? I hope you put more effort into verifying the information that you teach your students than you put into verifying the contents of this list.

The things he did as a "leader" is what is most important. You can all pick apart his life and the so-called discrepencies but not when it comes to his record. Sorry.

I don't believe your summary of his professional record is accurate either. Perhaps I'll get some free time later to address those points, or maybe someone else can pick up the ball. Or maybe you could look into them honestly, which would be nice.

But you have your opinion and I have mine.

But you don't have your own facts.

If I had to choose between idiot and liar I would choose idiot. So thanks. But at least I am not both like the president.

Your hatred is blinding you. Even Chris Christie changed his tune when he got to actually work with the man and see what he's doing.

Thank you, however this did not really answer my question. Let me rephrase. In what way does having experience in the private sector prepare one to deal with public sector issues? Are other experiences less valuable for some reason?
