jbg Posted September 7, 2014 Author Report Posted September 7, 2014 your revisionism nowithstanding, there's pleny of academic scrutiny that places blame on both sides of the Republican-Democrat divide. I live here and went through that era. Carter, Reagan, Bush I, Clinton and Bush II share plenty of blame for this debacle. Thus, a "Kodak moment" where we both agree.

jbg Posted September 7, 2014 Author Report Posted September 7, 2014 Aside from linking to your own post where can you show something to back up such an accusation? Bowing to and apologizing to a Saudi King? Supporting Morsi over other alternatives in Egypt? His wife's "just beginning to be proud" of America? His failure to put his hand on his heart during the Pledge of Allegiance, and failure to wear a flag pin on his lapel? That's just a start.

cybercoma Posted September 7, 2014 Report Posted September 7, 2014 Obama's policies have actually made things worse in almost all aspects. So no. That's some bizarre alternate reality you live in. Quote

Clearly, you can't have a "a good proof, a proven proof"... unless you have a proof to begin with. You're welcome; carry on! Quote

No proof was offered... again, you can't have a "good proof, a proven proof", in the absence of an actual proof. You failed with your intent; it wasn't applicable. Try harder next time, hey! Quote
waldo Posted September 8, 2014 Report Posted September 8, 2014 Bowing to and apologizing to a Saudi King? ah yes! The apology thing... I'd expect no less from a self-proclaimed liberalDemocrat! FactChecker handles that supposed apology thingee - here: "bowing to"? So... you're ok with holding hands and kissing then? I won't bother going through the rest of your post as it can be dealt with just as easily. Quote
bush_cheney2004 Posted September 8, 2014 Report Posted September 8, 2014 Worse in almost all respects, except for employment, not being in 2 wars, not having banks and major employers going out of business left and right...

Miranda23 Posted September 8, 2014 Report Posted September 8, 2014 I can't but agree with you. In latest time Obama behaves strangely. I watched in news that even Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton blamed the rise of Islamist militants in Iraq and Syria on failures of US policy under President Barack Obama. http://choose.tv/france24-en Quote
Shady Posted September 8, 2014 Report Posted September 8, 2014 Worse in almost all respects, except for employment, not being in 2 wars, not having banks and major employers going out of business left and right... -k Labour participation is at a 30 year low. Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, soon to be Syria. No, they're just not hiring, as per weakest recovery on record. Income inequality is worse under Obama. As are record deficits, and more debt added by him than all other presidents combined. Kimmy you're delusional beyond comprehension. Quote
waldo Posted September 8, 2014 Report Posted September 8, 2014 Labour participation is at a 30 year low. per the Forbes linked article (provided by MLW member, 'Mighty AC')... you know, the article you appear to have a most selective interpretation of: ... "nothing to do with job availability, and everything to do with a highly predictable aging demographic" Quote
Mighty AC Posted September 8, 2014 Report Posted September 8, 2014 Labour participation is at a 30 year low. “Labor participation is affected much less by short-term job creation, and much more by long-term demographic trends. As the Baby Boomers entered the workforce and societal acceptance of women working changed, labor participation grew. “Now that ‘Boomers’ are retiring we are seeing the percentage of those seeking employment decline. This has nothing to do with job availability, and everything to do with a highly predictable aging demographic. “What’s now clear is that the Obama administration policies have outperformed the Reagan administration policies for job creation and unemployment reduction. Even though Reagan had the benefit of a growing Boomer class to ignite economic growth, while Obama has been forced to deal with a retiring workforce developing special needs. During the eight years preceding Obama there was a net reduction in jobs in America. We now are rapidly moving toward higher, sustainable jobs growth.” http://www.forbes.com/sites/adamhartung/2014/09/05/obama-outperforms-reagan-on-jobs-growth-and-investing/ Quote "Our lives begin to end the day we stay silent about the things that matter." - Martin Luther King Jr"Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities" - Voltaire
