Stand Tall, President Obama! You Are Doing a Great Job!

You ended the War in Iraq.
You are ending the War in Afghanistan.
You saved the U.S. economy from another Great Depression.
You lowered the unemployment rate.
You have people all over the world investing in U.S stocks.
You won the health care debate even when I thought you couldn't do it.
You allowed gay and lesbian Americans to serve openly in the Armed Forces.
You expanded the hate crimes act.
You have encouraged green energy.
You have overseen the lowest importing of foreign energy in a very long time.
You were courageous and enacted the Dream Act all on your own.
You saved the U.S. auto industry.
You have made equal pay for women closer to reality.
You brought Osama bin Laden to justice.
You ended the murderous dictatorship in Libya.
You have done a lot with no help from Republicans and with a lot of second guessing from Democrats.

Stand tall. I support you and am proud to call you President. Don't be distracted and remember, you are the President of the United States until 2017. And I like that. A lot.

sudden "partisan" meme?

On this board, the discussion primarily revolves around Democrats and Republicans.

We're are primarily Democrats. We support the Democratic Party. Shouldn't a high level of partisanship be expected?

I mean, is calling out people for being "partisan" supposed to show that they're unwilling to consider the POV of the fucking depraved assholes Republicans have become?

Republicans are yelling "scandal" (implementing the health care law is a "scandal&quot . Pardon me for being so "partisan" that I don't jump on the bandwagon to give those crazy fucks a leg up in their witchhunt.

He's the best President I've seen in my lifetime. His critics on the right are misguided at best, idiotic at worst. To my friends here who want him to be more progressive, I don't begrudge your criticisms. Please vote in the mid-term elections, as they are very important.

Today, many of us are really angry at our President and the DOJ, not for all the great things above but for the heinous abuse of power that just happened.

If Bush had done this, we would be united in our fury.

Bin Laden was executed, before he could be "brought to justice".
