Most socialist president, gave GM to the unions, OTaxCare passed the SCOTUS by being declared a tax, pulled troops out per Bush’s schedule, Jimmy Carter’s 2nd and 3rd terms. Not worthy of being on the trillion dollar coin either.

What’s next? Putting Jimmy Carter up there? If Carter II, why not Carter I?
Since when do we honor “Below Average” presidents? Both devastated the economy with their liberal tax and spend programs. And before you liberals blame Bush, remember that Obama was in the Senate for 4 years and supported Bush’s reckless spending.

If he can stand up to the idiots in CONgress who want to destroy the economy I say start carving the granite.

He’s prompted hate-filled right-wing extremists to stock up on guns. He must be doing something right.

“Saved the auto industry”? Let’s see, GM and Chrysler didn’t pay back the full amount that they were given (for the union vote). If the auto industry would have folded up and vanished without stimulus just how did Ford remain healthy without taking a dime? As far as passing “health care”. That was the worst piece of legislation to ever make it through Congress. Even Pilosi didn’t know what was in the 1000+ page bill when she voted on it. Obama is nothing but a social experiment that totally failed.

Wow, the trolls are out here in force today. Everything in the cartoon is true. And everything the trolls say, pretty much, false. The president is not a socialist by any definition. And so-called “Obamacare” was the biggest deficit reduction bill in the past four years, according to the CBO.

Best republican president since Eisenhower! The rest have all been neofascists handing the country over to the corporations and their 1% masters!

How can our health care be worse? Isn’t the government the same people that run the DMV?

@Mr. King
His chosen handle is much more clever then yours, jealous much.
Ah, so you’re a fan of Goldwater then? You would support his views on labor unions, the welfare state and his fight against the new deal legacy?
AuH2O, don’t remind them of Obama’s past, he is the anointed one, he has made no errors and is omnipotent.

I have no doubt it’s in Zero’s plans. Fundamental transformation of a Constitutional Republic into a Soviet dictatorship is certainly ‘remarkable’

an intelligent president for a change! one who actually UNDERSTANDS what’s going on and what will make the country stronger for future generations instead of making the chosen few of the 1% stronger for their kids to inherit big bux at the expense of future generations!
i hope he stays strong. he’s accomplished an amazing amount of foundation for the future. i don’t agree with everything he’s done/not done but he beats the crap outta the wasted 8 years that brought one of the strongest coutries ever to its knees. imagine what he could have accomplished if he didn’t have to negotiate with tantrum-throwing, whiny, self-centered children!
y’know the ones… the ones in the states at the top of the ‘gimme’ list – yes, the republican states that are the biggest draws on the help line. look up the figures and facts!

Uhh…………

Health care reform ~ All that seems to have done is to take full time jobs away from people. Oh and for the companies that aren’t reducing hours, it puts more money into the pockets of the insurance companies.
.
Wasn’t it Bush who “saved the auto industry”? I clearly remember Bush making the announcements.

Yep, doesn’t look like Obama to me.
.
Wars in Iraq and Afghanistan? Then why are soldiers still dying over there?
.
Of course there’s the fact that Guantanamo Bay is still open (remember he “closed” that right away). He’s brought the US to the brink of civil war. Yet somehow he deserves to be up there? You’re kidding me.

@AuH2O
Like your name. It’s much cooler than some pompous reference meant to imply regal power that contradicts reality.
