Heard about this - "the Obamameter" - on NPR this morning. |
|
http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/promises/Obama is largely doing very well in his campaign promises, according to the data - and those who presented it.

1. Looks to me pretty much |

Needs a disclaimer attached to most of the stalled ones stating how the rethugs are doing the stalling.

2. They generally are pretty accurate. |
|
They have at least one "broken promise" that's pure bullshit though. The "Recognize the Armenian genocide" one. He did it. In Turkey. Some reporter asked him if he stood by his characterization of it as a genocide, he said yes he did. Very clearly.
Because Obama wasn't the one to actually speak the word "genocide" in the exchange they called it "promise broken". It was absurd.
