come on man you cant have a normal conversation/debate and criticize the current administration for their failures with out hearing about bush when its been over 5 years since hes been in office (obama was obviously the wrong choice if he couldnt fix things in that time span), criticize obama without being called a racist, being called heartless and rich cause you dont care about poor people, and do nothing to discuss the issues and just do whatever they can to get off the topic

"As a student of history, I also know civilization's debt to Islam." - this one really made me say wtf

"Our country still struggles with the legacies of slavery and segregation, the past treatment of Native Americans." - really?

"The point I was making was not that my grandmother harbors any racial animosity. She doesn't. But she is a typical white person...." - BAHAHAHA

"So the record is clear: Rather than keeping us safer, the prison at Guantanamo has weakened American national security. It is a rallying cry for our enemies." - well in that case why dont we just empty out and close all the prison - real bright one we got here dick.

"So I read the book to help me understand what it is that makes white people so afraid, their demons, the way ideas get twisted around. It helps me understand how people learn to hate." - racist much? first wth the typical white people - wtf is typical anyways?

those are just a few of my favorites, he's said much more dumb shit. NOW let's go over a list of his failures - because fuck... let's face it, they outweigh his success by a long shot - same thing with bush - he did some good stuff (which i will list if requested), but the bad that happened during his terms outweighed the good.

A gallon of regular gas the day Obama was inaugurated was $1.79 on average in the U.S. Today that price is $3.59, a 100.6% increase. The number of food stamp recipients has risen since Obama took office from 31,983,716 to 43,200,878, a 35.1% jump. Long term unemployment soared 146.2% during the same 32 month period from 2,600,000 to 6,400,000. Staggering “hope and change” isn’t it?

American citizens living in poverty have risen 9.5% from 39,800,000 to 43,600,000, and the number of unemployed has jumped almost 25% from 11,616,000 to 14,485,000 as of August 31, 2011. The number of unemployed blacks has risen from 12.6% at the end of George Bush’s term to 15.8% today, a 25.4% increase, and finally, our national debt is up 34.4% from 10.627 trillion to 14.278 (about 3 trillion higher now)
