2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumTo the people who voted for Obama in 08 and now say, "Obama hasn't fixed it fast enough."
Why did Obama have to fix anything?
Oh, that's right.
Because someone else broke it.
Who broke it?
Oh, that's right.
Republicans.
So, you admit that something needed to be fixed, you know that it was the Republican party that broke it and now you have decided to back that same party, only four years later, because the mess they made wasn't cleaned up fast enough.
It boggles the mind.

(2,769 posts)But most of these people really aren't up for the mental challenge of, say, checking the validity of a FOX News story or an email forward from their deranged brother in law.
So, this one is pretty basic and it boggles my mind that certain people don't get it.

(3,335 posts)This was the worse financial collapse since the Great Depression, and the Repugnants had already run up the national debt and then stood around with their hands in their pockets while President Obama attempted to clear up their mess talking trash like, "what about that spot you missed over there. Here's another spot your missed." They deserve to be exiled from power for at least the next 50 years.

(16,993 posts)What has the GOP done to HELP since Obama took office?
Where are the jobs bills?
WHAT legislation has the GOP passed to actually HELP the economy recover?
If people voted for Obama in 2008, and are unhappy with his performance during his first term, they need to dig deeper to see what he ATTEMPTED to do that was BLOCKED by the GOP.
Rewarding the GOP in 2012 with a vote is like endorsing economic terrorism against the American people. The GOP hasn't just hurt Obama's record, they've hurt the American people.
