Please List Obama’s Accomplishments

from JoeUser Forums

Over the past month or so, I have asked people who have either been bashing McCain or praising Obama, to list some real accomplishments from Barack Obama.  So far…..nobody has responded.  It truly is scary to think that a man who is virtually unknown is running for President, and has a legion of followers who don’t anything about him. 

So here’s your chance democrats and liberals, please list some accomplishments from Obama.

Well, in fairness, all sheeple can say is "Baaaah."

"For instance, a casual reader of your reposted "accomplishments" post might get the impresison that Obama reaches across the aisle.  But he doesn't. He's one of the most partisan members of the senate when it comes time to vote." Agreed, he has pretty much been a partisan politician (90 plus percent) although the Federal Funding Accounting and Transparency Act of 2006 was sponsored by Coburn, Obama, Carper and McCain, two Democrats and two Republicans.

Regarding the financial crise, John McCain has been, both by voting record and public statement, much more of a deregulator than any Democrat.

I use the Vote Smart website to see how the politicians have actually voted: http://www.votesmart.org/

But that shouldn't even be a debated point. McCain backed and enthusiasticly supported the Commodity Futures Modernization Act and the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, the two primary peices of legistlation that deregulated the industry. "Gramm" of course refers to John McCain's long-time friend and associate, Phil Gramm, who was John McCain's campaign advisor until he referred to America as a "nation of whiners" in the context of the financial crisis.

You are operating off the premise that deregulation is necessarily bad.

Deregulation is not the problem Larry, forced regulation of bad business decisions in the name of fairness is.  And Obama is up to his eyeballs in that.  NOt to say the republicans are any better, except they dont seem to campaign on it (and the true consevatives do not vote for it).

I can see we have a real jabberwocky working here.  What is up is down, and what is down is up!  Good spin!  YOu are better than most of the Obama Bots, I will give you that.
