Failure: It's Like A Stench Emanating From Washington

[Edgetho]

I just don't understand how dims can keep defending this kind of failure.

Going back before this year, remember the FAIL of all his 'Energy' give-aways? Billions in Tax Payer dollars gone and nothing to show for it?

TENS OF BILLIONS given to Municipalities and States and nothing to show for it.

SIX TRILLION DOLLARS added to the debt and nothing to show for it.

A surge of troops in Asscrackistan and nothing to show for it.

Handed a victory in Iraq and they dimocraps squandered it.

Fail. Everywhere you look.... Fail. Everything dimocraps touch.... Fail

The Collapse of the Obama Presidency « Commentary Magazine

How bad has 2013 been for Barack Obama? Let us count the ways.

In the first year of his second term, the president has failed on virtually every front. He put his prestige on the line to pass federal gun-control legislation–and lost. He made climate change a central part of his inaugural address–and nothing has happened. The president went head-to-head with Republicans on sequestration–and he failed. He’s been forced to delay implementation of the employer mandate, a key feature of the Affordable Care Act. ObamaCare is more unpopular than ever, and it’s turning out to be a “train wreck” (to quote Democratic Senator Max Baucus) in practice. The most recent jobs report was the worst in a year, with the Obama recovery already qualifying as a historically weak one. Immigration reform is going nowhere. And then there’s Syria, which has turned out to be an epic disaster. (To be sure, Mr. Obama’s Middle East failures go well beyond Syria–but Syria is the most conspicuous failure right now).

In watching the Obama presidency dissolve before our eyes, there is a cautionary tale to be told. Every presidency falls short of the expectations that the candidate sets. But no man has ever promised more and delivered less than the current occupant of the Oval Office.

All of the extravagant promises and claims–of “Yes We Can!” and “we’re the ones we’ve been waiting for;” of hope and change and slowing the rise of the oceans; of claiming his candidacy would “ring out across this land as a hymn that will heal this nation, repair this world, make this time different than all the rest”–lie in ruin. (I’d urge you to watch this short video clip from the 2008 campaign to more fully appreciate the crushing disappointment that results from what Mr. Obama said he would achieve versus what he’s been able to achieve.)

If you've already eaten lunch, you may want to wait a few minutes before watching this. But watch it. I mean it.... Watch it.

Yeah, it will nauseate even the strongest among you, but....

Watch it

liberalism is a mental disease. I have said that and proven that many times. Liberals have a genetic defect. Their DRD4 gene is defective and blocks rational logical thinking.

Until medical science comes up with a cure, they should all be locked up in institutions so that they cannot harm themselves or others.

 

[ScreamingEagle]

there's been a lot of change (mostly bad)..... but they still keep hoping....

 

[Redfish]

now we know exactly what he meant by "fundamentally changing" the USA.-----------destroying our economy and our culture and our borders and our military, and our international reputation and our national credit rating

congrats libtardians----------your messiah has almost achieved his goal of destroying this country.

Everything you call a failure is what liberals call a success. Syria will go down in history as one of the great international failures. Liberals believe it to be one of obama's most successful policy coups. They believe obama has Presidrnt Putin running scared. You can't fix this kind of stupid.

So as I see it..

1 Russia helped Syria create the chemical weapons.
2 Obama threatened to bomb Syria hopefully with pin prick hits destroying them.
3 BUT Kerry said having Russia investigate and be responsible was a joke.. right?
4 And then Syria accepts Putin's offer to take back the chemicals Russia supplied.

Is that how it works?

 

[Claudette]

Yup. Hope and change is working for all to see. NOT.

We may not be able to fix stupid, but we can vote it out.

 

[rdean]

Handed a "victory" in Iraq?

Seriously?

Is that "satire"?

These people can't be that stupid. Not really. OR can they?

 

[rdean]

I just want USMB Republicans to be clear. Do you really think Iraq could have been a "success"? And please define "success". I really want you guys to lay those cards on the table.

Iraq was never intended to be a success. To build a real empire you have to occupy and conquer it. Slowly the population becomes adjusted. But that's not what we're doing. We're simply securing our monetary interests and making sure that oil is exchanged in worthless dollars. There is no nation building here but it is still about empire.

 

[francoHFW]

11- that was happening BEFORE the stupidest war EVER..

OP- An d most people blame the party of 'NO' and the debt ceiling crisis/sequester, the disastrous GOP. Except the hater dupes and the greedy idiots...

So you are saying that Republicans let all those Americans die and get maimed for nothing? That they knew it wasn't going to be a success?

No, the USA let those americans die and get maimed for nothing, just like the USA did in Viet Nam, Korea, and Kosovo.

Congress, both parties, authorized and funded those fiascos. All of us are responsible for the deaths and maiming of our kids in those stupid wars.

Its not a partisan problem, asshole. We all elected those clowns, we are all responsible.

The question is: will we ever learn from our mistakes?

stupidest war ever----------Kennedy and Johnson's viet nam----------58,000 dead americans and billions of dollars ------for NOTHING.

 

[Katzndogz]

Until obama took over, Iraq was on it's way to becoming at least something other than an Islamic hell pit. Then came obama and his alliance with al quaeda. That's why most of the deaths in Iraq happened.
