I'm saying that he was handed something that was working, the changes he made have not enhanced the economy but in fact have negatively affected what he was handed.
user you actually with your own opinion have answered your own questions.
You say he was handed a bag of shit for an economy, you have then been given the information that when he went ti India he spent millions of dollars and extravagantly took 3000 people with him, how can both be true?
He either was given a strapped economy or he he was given an economy that was sufficiently working to enable him to spend like that?
Or he spent knowing that the economy was in the shitter and didn't care.
again you are forced to pick one.

You don't think that spending in the Bush era (engaging in wars in Afghanistan and Iraq) and unprecedented tax cuts and the uncontrolled mortgage fiasco and the bail out of Freddie and Fannie have anything to do with the current economic factors?

No, I'm not. Your head is up your ass, Dickie. You haven't addressed whether the India trip was "business" or pleasure nor have you acknowledged that he might have generated business for the U.S. while he was there.
Obama WASN'T handed something that was working. Most sane people realize that. The housing bubble had blown and many economists were predicting the next great depression. They might have overstated it (or not) but there's no way you can say Obama was handed a "good" economy. At minimum, we were heading in to a recesssion, the housing bubble had burst, banks were going belly up (or if they were lucky, getting bailed out). It was not by any stretch of the imagination a good time to take over the presidency.

Don't say defense spending because Obama has increased that, too. Don't say the housing bubble because that was Clinton. What else can you say?
I blame Bush for NCLB. That was a HUGE fuckup. Totally his bad. Actually, I blame Laura Bush. That shit HAD to be her idea.
Now what has your retarded president done wrong? Hmm? Better yet, what has he done RIGHT? Tell me. I'd like to know.
So economic blame conveniently skips parties? Clinton, skip Bush for 8 years and then Obama?
I've posted the legislation at least three times. You had a chance to read it. You didn't. That's intentional ignorance. You would rather think what you think than learn something different, even if it is the truth. That is the official definition of a Democrat.
You didn't post one positive thing Obama has done. Because you don't know any. There isn't much, but he's done a few decent things. But YOU don't know any because that's not why you vote. The issues have nothing to do with it ~ you vote for the party, exactly what you accuse everyone else of doing.
Just pointing this out. You won't see it, but here it is. You had the chance to post how fabulous your decision was...

Of course my head must be up my ass, because you have supplied so much information all I had to do was listen and learn.
So mote it be.

Call me crazy but I don't place a lot of weight in anything that's posted online (especially when it's partisan). Post one article and I can guarantee you that I can find five (or more) to rebut it.
Cracker, you have no idea how I vote but I will say I hate either party trying to shove their opinions down my throat. When you and Dick (or Nancy Pelosi) get on your high horses, you turn the rest of us off. I hate you all.

But you didn't.
Hate is good, but reasonable is better.
Not everything you read on the internet is bullshit, and not everything that can be found with the Youtube video with the person actually saying what they said can be called bullshit by a thinking person.
Vote however the fuck you want to, this is America we used to be free.
These numbers are a matter of record.
5.6 % unemployment
triple A credit rating
9.1 unemployment
double A credit rating.
Pick one.

EDGARTOWN — Martha’s Vineyard workers and visitors may gripe about gridlock when President Obama decides to take his 15-car motorcade to the golf course this week, but pity the poor private-plane owners: They are soooooo inconvenienced by the First Vacation, many will boycott The Rock!
“In prior years we lost about 75 to 80 percent of our business,” said Martha’s Vineyard Airport manager Sean Flynn. “But the process has been improved upon this year and we’re hoping that more people will be willing to fly.”
An FAA Temporary Flight Restriction is in place over the island for the duration of the presidential vacation, meaning that no private planes can fly directly into the Vineyard without first stopping at one of three “gateway aiports” for a security screening. The gateways are Hyannis, Providence and White Plains, N.Y., and private jets must register by phone 24 hours in advance in order to clear their passage to the Vineyard.
“Everybody’s pissed,” said one summer rez who hobnobs with the rich and famous. “You have to call in advance to sign up for what amounts to a proctology exam and if you are flying late at night, sometimes there’s only one person around and you end up waiting and waiting.”
Can you just imagine the inconvenience!!!
i guess nobody told him about our great white sharks.
EDGARTOWN — President Barack Obama enjoyed some beach time Sunday with his family on Martha’s Vineyard, though not before getting briefed on developments in Libya.
Under sunny skies, Obama, wife Michelle, and daughters Malia and Sasha spent the morning on a private beach in Edgartown. The outing came on the third full day of Obama’s 10-day summer vacation and was his first excursion with his full family in tow.

he may have to bail.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency is keeping a line open to President Obama and the First Family as they vacation on Martha’s Vineyard and Hurricane Irene — growing both in size and strength — appears destined to pelt the Bay State sometime Sunday.
