I could debate all day long on the tragedy that has befallen this country as a result of the last three years under Barack Obama. Suffice it to say, he's all but destroyed our constitutional republic, and has driven the US and world economy right off a cliff. Worst president in history.

Romney’s Bain Capital invested in companies that moved jobs overseas

Mitt Romney’s financial company, Bain Capital, invested in a series of firms that specialized in relocating jobs done by American workers to new facilities in low-wage countries like China and India.

Instead of opinion-based memes, I invite those on the Left and Right to consider the facts of what President Obama has accomplished to benefit the majority of Americans and if they maintain a negative view of him, list what items Bush accomplished to benefit most Americans in the first two years of his presidency or what a Repub candidate in 2012 would do in the first two years of theirs

Start debating then. Obama inherited this economy, and I remember Republicans bitching about what "Obama did to the economy" LESS THAN one year after he was in office. Bush Jr. IS still responsible for the depression our economy is in right now. Even though I can't stand the stupidity of Republicans, I will be fair and say that it wasn't all Bush Jr.'s fault because right after he illegally stole the presidency 9-11 happened.

Ex-Repiglican, wouldn't it be great if Republicans actually read your list and gave Obama credit where credit is due?

LOL @ drink the kool aid, get back to me after mass

(nod, nod, wink, wink...lol)

Know what's funny is the Republipigs are stealing OUR jokes.....drink the kool-aid was a originally a joke made about them and their "fanaticism" (we'll call it) based on what happened with the Jim Jones cult. Now they call us kool-aid drinkers, because they lack originality and are dumb. But, you're not going to catch a democrat being brainwashed by a cult, lol.

Plus, I don't think he could "debate all day long"...that's just a front for acting like he actually knows something.

Stockton and the rest of California on the brink of bankruptcy... same would have happened to Wisconsin had it not been for the fortitude, character, and conviction of Governor Walker.

We are fighting to survive the worst president in history, a man who has, in three short years, all but destroyed America as the greatest nation on earth. And still there are fools who would cast a vote for the guy.

This ain't the democratic party of your fathers. In fact, I was a democrat for half my life. To be a liberal today is so far left of the America of JFK that I am certain he is rolling over in his grave at what Obama is doing to this great country.

Wake up.

There is still hope, America.

The President, the Vice President, the members of Congress have a medical plan that meets their needs in full, and whenever senators and representatives catch a little cold, the Capitol physician will see them immediately, treat them promptly, fill a prescription on the spot. We do not get a bill even if we ask for it, and when do you think was the last time a member of Congress asked for a bill from the Federal Government? And I say again, as I have before, if health insurance is good enough for the President, the Vice President, the Congress of the United States, then it's good enough for you and every family in America.

----------

The serious issue before us tonight is the cause for which the Democratic Party has stood in its finest hours, the cause that keeps our Party young and makes it, in the second century of its age, the largest political Party in this republic and the longest lasting political Party on this planet.

Our cause has been, since the days of Thomas Jefferson, the cause of the common man and the common woman.

Our commitment has been, since the days of Andrew Jackson, to all those he called "the humble members of society -- the farmers, mechanics, and laborers." On this foundation we have defined our values, refined our policies, and refreshed our faith..

vote obama 2012

Wake up.

Were you even alive more than 3 years ago? THAT was when the economy turned into a disaster. We saw the largest income gap between the rich and poor, since the great depression, under President Bush. The housing market busted under George Bush. Wall Street collapsed under George Bush. Three short years is NOT enough time to turn around what Bush did, which is why I'm voting for Obama again. Did you not read his list of accomplishments? It's pretty damn impressive.

Scott Walker has NO character, whatsoever. He stopped funding to an organization that provides food to food pantries because he gave the manager an ultimatum to either fire a certain employee or lose funding, well that employee wasn't fired so they lost funding. Scott Walker is a vindictive bitch.(before you say something dumb like "well people shouldn't go to food pantries", let me tell you a fact...most people who use them work full-time! and NO, I don't use them, but I'm not such a cold blooded animal that I think others shouldn't get help)

Scott Walker and republicans whine about how recalls should only be allowed if a politician breaks the law. Yet, he spearheaded recalls in Milwaukee against politicians who did NOT break any laws.

Another fact about Scott Walker...a few summers ago a kid in Milwaukee had a large concrete piece of a city-owned parking structure fall on him and kill him because Scott Walker cut funding for maintenance on that and other city-owned buildings. I know one of the people that had to clean up the gruesome scene. Scott Walker should have cleaned it up his damn self, because it was his fault. I don't know how that bastard sleeps at night.

Plus...did you know, Wisconsin had a surplus before Scott Walker gave it away to out-of-state corporations? Yeah...he's really "saving" us. What a joke.

Before you go saying things like Scott Walker has character, etc...PLEASE get your facts straight.
