One thing I can say for Obama, he never broke a campaign promise before he gained the Oval Office.
Unlike some other president elects.....
Imagine what Trump will look like.
if he can finish his term, I suspect he won'tOriginally Posted by Cujo

Thanks, Earl,
I watched this - again - after many years.
It was a brilliant speech.
No disrespect to Obama: it was brilliant. Carefully crafted. Genius.
And I remember FOX had a tizzy-fit response.
I think that actually - BO - wrote the speech.
It was brilliant.
Too bad the speech maker back in 2004 and the candidate in 2008 did not live up that.
more likely is he just quits because it finally dawns on him that he's in over his head.Originally Posted by Dragonfly

No, White Friend?You Weren?t ?Embarrassed? by Barack Obama | john pavlovitz
"I remember the day after the Election, a friend of mine who happens to be white, remarked on social media that he “finally wasn’t embarrassed of America and our President.”
I sprained my eyes rolling them and they have never fully recovered.
Since then I’ve heard this sentiment echoed by more white folks than I can count, especially in recent months; supposed relief at once again having a leader who instills pride.
Since I don’t have the time to ask each of the individually, I’ll ask here:
So, you were embarrassed for the past 8 years, huh?
Really?
What exactly were you embarrassed by?
Were you embarrassed by his lone and enduring twenty-five year marriage to a strong woman he’s never ceased to publicly praise, respect, or cherish?
Were you embarrassed by the way he lovingly and sweetly parented and protected his daughters?
Were you embarrassed by his Columbia University degree in Political Science or his graduating magna cum laude from Harvard Law School?
Maybe you were embarrassed by his white American and Black Kenyan parents, or the diversity he was raised in as normal?
Were you embarrassed by his eloquence, his quick wit, his easy humor, his seeming comfort meeting with both world leaders and street cleaners; by his bright smile or his sense of empathy or his steadiness—perhaps by his lack of personal scandals or verbal gaffes or impulsive tirades?
No. Of course you weren’t.
Honestly, I don’t believe you were ever embarrassed. That word implies an association that brings ridicule, one that makes you ashamed by association, and if that’s something you claim to have experienced over the past eight years by having Barack Obama representing you in the world—I’m going to suggest you rethink your word choice.
You weren’t “embarrassed” by Barack Obama.
You were threatened by him.
You were offended by him.
You were challenged by him.
You were enraged by him.
But I don’t believe it had anything to do with his resume or his experience or his character or his conduct in office—because you seem fully proud right now to be associated with a three-time married, serial adulterer and confessed predator; a man whose election and business dealings and relationships are riddled with controversy and malfeasance. You’re perfectly fine being represented by a bullying, obnoxious, genitalia-grabbing, Tweet-ranting, Prime Minister-shoving charlatan who’s managed to offend all our allies in a few short months. And you’re okay with him putting on religious faith like a rented, dusty, ill-fitting tuxedo and immediately tossing it in the garbage when he’s finished with it.
None of that you’re embarrassed of? I wonder how that works.
Actually, I’m afraid I have an idea. I hope I’m wrong.
Listen, you’re perfectly within your rights to have disagreed with Barack Obama’s policies or to have taken issue with his tactics. No one’s claiming he was a flawless politician or a perfect human being. But somehow I don’t think that’s what we’re talking about here. I think the thing President Obama did that really upset you, white friend—was having a complexion that was far darker than you were ever comfortable with. I think the President we have now feels much better.
Because objectively speaking, if what’s happening in our country right now doesn’t cause you great shame and doesn’t induce the continual meeting of your palm to your face—I don’t believe embarrassment is ever something you struggle with.
No, if you claimed to be “embarrassed” by Barack Obama but you’re not embarrassed by Donald Trump—I’m going to strongly suggest it was largely a pigmentation issue.
And as an American and a Christian committed to diversity and equality and to the liberty at the heart of this nation—that, embarrasses me".
SK you've been posting some hardcore libtard junk food the last few days over several threads now.
You alright homeslice? Cause thats ^ some bottom-barrel liberal feelz garbage there.
^ Rings true, don't it?
Honestly, no, it doesn't.Originally Posted by misskit
I voted for Obama on his first go, but not the second.
If they would have had another Obama-esque candidate, I *may* have voted that way, depending, and not Trump.
Anyway, whatevs, more libtard horseshit for you guys to wallow in.
Obama on Supreme Court ruling: 'The Affordable Care Act is here to stay'
Former President Obama said on Thursday that “The Affordable Care Act is here to stay.”
In a series of tweets, Obama applauded the Supreme Court's Thursday ruling upholding the act, saying it would ensure health insurance for millions.
“The principle of universal coverage has been established, and 31 million people now have access to care through the law we passed—with millions more who can no longer be denied coverage or charged more because of a preexisting condition,” Obama said.
Obama also said that he hopes President Biden will continue to “strengthen and expand” the measure, adding that Biden has extended the special enrollment period until Aug. 15 for families to sign up.
“Now we need to build on the Affordable Care Act and continue to strengthen and expand it. That’s what @POTUS Biden has done through the American Rescue Plan, giving more families the peace of mind they deserve,” he said.
The Supreme Court in a 7-2 ruling upheld ObamaCare on Thursday, determining that 18 Republican-led states lacked the standing to sue.
Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
They'll probably want to hang baldy orange cunto's SCOTUS picks now. Two of them voted to dismiss it.
