@CDresser1984 He has done a lot for this country. repealed don't ask don't tell, health care bill, killed Bin Laden etc. You can't blame the economy on him, he was elected president of the US when the economy had already hit the fan & the US was already in debt. Most of the troops are home now, some remain in Afghanistan to continue with combat training. Go take a government course at your local community college so you can learn how government works before talking shit.

OBAMA 2012!

MUCH BETTER THAN ANY OF THE REPUBLICAN HACKS THAT ARE RUNNING NOW (Except for Ron Paul, he's the only gentlemen and honest guy in the Republican race, although I still disagree with him)!

@nintendomania1983 This was SUCH a long argument, to be honest.

But it's okay, i understand you think Obama isn't a suitable president.

Let's be friends :) No, I'm serious. I could even give you a digital handshake if you want.

[nintendomania1983]

@KJaishiteru96 The Obama hype was worldwide. It was huge in Canada too. You even said so yourself in one of your previous posts that Canada rejoiced when Obama became president. Just because you aren't American, doesn't mean you cannot be caught up in the Obama hype. Many countries were caught up in it. They even had Obama broadway type plays over in Europe to celebrate his presidency after he was elected.

[nintendomania1983]

@KJaishiteru96 Funny how you are telling me I have to wait until his presidency is over before I can judge him as a bad president or not...yet here you are judging him as a great president despite his presidency not being over. I guess it's "do as I say, but not as I do" with you. That's what happens when I try to debate with a child.

[KJaishiteru96]

@nintendomania1983 But still, you can't say he's a bad president after being the President for only three years until his 8 years are up.

Only when he's DONE his terms should you weigh whether he's a bad president or not by looking at his past works. Your country's presidency is such a controversial thing.

@nintendomania1983 Helloo - I'm not American. I live in Canada.

So no, I was never caught up in all the Obama hype because I never lived in the US.

You don't tell me I'm blind. It's my opinion. I'm not a citizen, so I'm never going to vote, either.

Bye.

@KJaishiteru96 Obama will have outspent Bush by the end of this year. It took Bush 8 years to add $4.9 trillion to the debt. Obama has added $4 trillion in just 3 years. If Obama gets a 2nd term, than he will have added around $10 trillion to the debt by the time his 8 years are up...more than twice that of Bush. You are a typical Obama sheeple who got caught up in all the Obama hype and absolutely refuses to open your eyes to the truth about him. You are blind.

[KJaishiteru96]

@nintendomania1983 Oh, well, then sue Wikipedia :P.

Bush added $4.9 trillion to the debt, as told to me by you.

That's .9 trillion more than Obama.

We only have to see without assuming things before they even happen.

[nintendomania1983]

@KJaishiteru96 You have seriously been misinformed. Guantanamo Bay is still open. Our unemployment rate got worse after the stimulus bill was passed, (and it was a $1 trillion stimulus, not $500 million). The troop withdrawal date in Iraq was set before Obama became president. The health care reform bill is a disaster, and many states are opposing it as being unconstitutional. To top it all off, Obama has added $4 trillion to the national debt in just 3 years.

[KJaishiteru96]

@kvjhedfbv Oh look, Obama destroyed America!

Who flippin' saved it from the worst 2008 recession huh? The MINUTE he stepped into the White House he IMMEDIATELY went to work on the economy that was slipping away by the second. Try saving the financial state of the country.

I don't care what you say. Canada rejoiced when Obama became president. I witnessed it myself. Half of the world did.
