Actions Speak Louder Than Words

WOW! Cant wait for the typical liberal spin with this. BTW, it's all Bush's fault!

“Obama's had three-plus years now.” Hemmer

How do you figure?
By what math?
Are the elections this November?

He was elected in November 2008, but wasn’t sworn in until January 2009.
It is now July of 2011 giving him a grand total of two (2) years and seven (7) months in office, not three-plus years.

Wow, can you possibly despise him any more than you do???

Apparently he can do no good in your eyes.

And yes, actions do speak louder than words.

Amy...these liberals are so much fun to play with. Too predictable!

"these liberals are so much fun to play with." Hayett

Trickery and treachery are the practices of fools that have not the wits enought to be honest” Benjamin Franklin

ExToDresident: You are correct - I typed "three-plus" when I meant to say "two-plus." Have corrected my error.
However, that does not change the facts - that Obama has not been a leader, in any way, shape, or form.
Questioning what Obama has done in office - or struggling to find ANY accomplishments that have made America and Americans better off since Barry O. took office doesn't mean I somehow "despise" the man, as you conclude. I am indifferent to him as a human being. I don't hate him, I don't like him. I do hate his policies and what he is attempting to do to America while as President. And I think that many people feel the same way - Obama and his policies ARE detrimental to the wellness of the country. The "spread the misery" philosophy is one most Americans do not want to see put forth. The open disdain for capitalism, successful private businesses, the military, and the greatness of American are all things we have witnessed from Barry O. And most of us - those who truly believe in America and American exceptionalism - are aghast at what this man is trying to do.
Now, what "good" has Obama done in your eyes, ExToDresident?

“I am indifferent to him as a human being. I don't hate him, I don't like him. I do hate his policies and what he is attempting to do to America while as President.”

Oh please, a look through your archives shows your disdain for him since he announced his candidacy. Actions do speak louder than words

“And I think that many people feel the same way - Obama and his policies ARE detrimental to the wellness of the country.”

A conservative opinion, I bet you could find just as many similar liberal opinions of George W Bush.

Read; Hating America, The New World Sport, by John Gibson - Host of Fox News Channel’s The Big Story.

In the book he document how so many countries despise the US for George W Bush’s cowboy diplomacy.

"Obama's had almost three years now" That means 2 and 1/2 years. That is your statement. You did not say 3 and 1/2 years. ExToDresident, should get an eye exam or go back to school to learn to read.

“"Obama's had almost three years now" That means 2 and 1/2 years. That is your statement. You did not say 3 and 1/2 years. ExToDresident, should get an eye exam or go back to school to learn to read.”

Geno that is Hemmer’s REVISED statement, she originally said “three-plus” years.

Perhaps you missed this statement by Amy; “I typed "three-plus" when I meant to say "two-plus." (I) Have corrected my error.”

It is you who should get an eye exam or go back to school to learn to read.

I have to Apologize to ExToDresident. I did not have access to a computer until I got home. I missed the original post. I know it may be difficult to forgive a right winger, but I hope you can. I admit my comment was stupid.

Anyone interested in comparative numbers? Run a Dogpile search on vacation days for Pres. Obama and for former Pres. G.W. Bush. Another set of numbers that are very interesting. According to a column from Miles Strasser in the Oshkosh Northwestern, in 1953, the unemployment rate was 2% and the top tax rate on incomes above $400K was 92%. Now the top tax rate for incomes above $380K is 35% and the unemployment rate is around 9%. Trickle Down? Give me a break!

"I am indifferent to him as a human being. I don't hate him, I don't like him."-Amy

Yes we know you don't hate the "man child"...that's sarcasm by the way...

Hi Al;
I know what you mean by Melville’s classic Moby Dick, I have a “Kindle app” on my “smart phone” and downloaded the book, and have been reading it on there. (It is great when I find myself twiddling my thumbs to have a book readily available on my phone) He goes into great detail about just about everything. Reading it has also expanded my vocabulary of words I will most likely never use. According to the application I have made it through 38% of the book. I did find the quote from the Star Trek movie Final Contact that prompted me to start reading it.
Looking a little further I have found out the book The Rise and Fall of the Roman Empire was six volumes because Edward Gibbon released them over a 32 year span. I think that there are “condensed” versions, which combine all six volumes into one binding.
I have this odd urge to read the classics. Like Moby Dick, The Three Musketeers (which I have in a bound version) and Alice in Wonderland (talk about creative writing, and another kindle version) among others.

Must be tired; that last post was meant for Al's blog.

Whine about the subject not how you receive it ! Talk about killing the messenger .

Here's an interesting note to address the Bush vs. Obama "vacation days" scenario the media likes to present:

http://www.nationalreview.com/media-blog/231166/spinning-bush-vs-obama-vacation-day/greg-pollowitz

Guess it would be fair if the press called some of Obama's trips to Chicago "vacation days?' Hmmmmm.... Nah, why bother. It helps with the spin that Bush somehow took more vacation days than Barry O. Also interesting is the time spent on the links by Barry doesn't count as a vacation day. Guess golfing IS a lot of work!

Carl Hicks: I don't hate the "little man-child." I don't know him at all - to either like or dislike him. But, as I have stated, I hate his policies and what he is trying to do to our country.

ExToDResident: Bush's "cowboy diplomacy" somehow has turned off so many countries to the United States? Care to mention what countries, ExToDr?
I'd venture a guess that the countries that despise the United States are the same ones that are our enemies.
In Obama's short years in office, Barry O. has managed to diss many of the United States allies, in favor of sucking up to our enemies. Why? Who knows. I'd rather have Bush's "cowboy diplomacy" - going after terrorists, countries that provide safe haven to terrorists, etc., than Barry O's cozying up to the likes of Hugo Chavez, etc., while angering our major world allies.

yes . minty who ?

"I'd rather have Bush's "cowboy diplomacy" - going after terrorists, countries that
provide safe haven to terrorists"

Does Bin Laden and Pakistan meet your qualifications for "terrorists" and
"countries" that provide safe haven to them?

And speaking of golf, which president said he quit golf in honor of our troops and
then was video taped playing golf two months later?

"I don't want some mum whose son may have recently died to see the
commander-in-chief playing golf. I feel I owe it to the families to be in solidarity
as best as I can with them." - George Dubya

Yes indeed, actions speak louder than words.

Wingnuts have such short memories. :-)

"But I, again, I wanna tell the American people, we're doin' everything we can at
home, but you better have a president who chases these terrorists down and
bring 'em to justice before they hurt us again." - George Dubya

Well Dubya, your wish has come true, we got a president who will chase
terrorists down. His name is Barack Hussein Obama.

It's the truth. :-)

No ! It is a spin on your part . What is truth is the W went golfing after two months !
The o made it how many days ? You can answer that for all of us so even your spin
cannot change the answer . So Pelosi is the o doing what you want done ? lol.....
