1. I give him a 'C'
The first 6 months were great. The second 6 months have been like a third term of Clinton.

2. This poll is about you....not so much the president.
How do you feel?

Can he redeem himself in your eyes?
and if so, what is the one thing that he realistically could do
that would make you feel like he's got it going on again?

4. I'm a happy person, generally.....
I was even voted Class cut-up in my High School class.

I thought was going to get best eyes, or best hair, or best smile, or best dressed or best something glamorous, but no; just Class cut-up. :rofl:

5. The only vote on me in school was "suspension" or "expulsion".
Class cut up would have been welcomed. ;)

7. Not enough choices in your poll
I don't feel fuc*ed personally, but the country has been fuc*ed since 2000.

And Obama is just making it worse. We are never going to get out of under this debt, 100% of your FICA taxes goes to pay just the interest.

$BILLIONS for crooked bankers that intentionally caused all the problems, and Obama appoints the crooks to oversight positions, with not a whisper about the re-regulation that's needed.

$BILLIONS for crooked health companies that have private meetings with the Obama admin, they lobby and get the bill they want from the senate. You can tell they got what they wanted because they suddenly stopped lobbying. Their bill is the one that Obama now says we need.

$BILLIONS for oil wars without end. Does anyone really think a few hundred Al-Quida, or even a few thousand is a real threat? What's the chances of getting hit by a terrorist, 10 times as rare as lighting? The real threats are things like poor diet, and pharmaceuticals, and texting drivers. Shoe bombers from dirt camps is not a real threat.

NOTHING for the workers except a higher tax burden. Promises promises, we put the dems in a super majority, they had it most of the year and they did JACK SH*T for the working people.

Obama talks the workers talk and walks the corporate walk. He's just an actor and "we are change" is just a TV show put on by big pharma, big banks, big media, big defense, etc. There's a bunch of blind people here I knew from the time he got hella favorable coverage from all the media that the big money owns. He was their choice from the get-go.

9. Well that's a big bunch of lies all in one place!

How come you only started feeling that way in 2000?

What did Clinton do that you admire so?
Those "crooks" you are talking about all worked under Bill Clinton.
Summers was certainly there. Hell, Bill Clinton is the one that signed away Steagall!

Bill Clinton did the secret health thing, and didn't get shit passed.

Bill Clinton and all of the Presidents before him also got big time war money.....

Obama gave the biggest tax cut to middle class Americans ever.
taxes haven't gone up.

so my question is why only since 2000 have you been feeling fucked?
Did feeling fucked feel good before then? And if so, why then and not now?

And why lie and exaggerate? What's in it for you to do it?
