remember when Obama promised to shut down guantanamo bay?

Yet in his first two years, with a filibuster threat record setting GOP he passed more major legislation than any president since what...the civil war.


Shit he's still had the least nuraber of confirmations because of Republicans blocking everything for arbitrary reasons that have nothing to do with the candidates in question.
 
Stupid little puppet, joke of a president. He makes the American pride in being the president turn into a complete fucking joke.
America is going to shit each and every day. Hope he enRAB his term on a horrible horrible note, so he can get criticized for decades to come.
 
Do you remeraber why the bush tax cuts got extended for 2 years? Because the Republicans threatened to shut down congress when much more important bills needed to be passed.

And health care reform made the health insurance industry FAR more competitive, forced far more efficiency, and far more closely tied to actual costs incurred....but what do I know, I just work in the industry.

Health care reform addressed health insurance but we need to more directly address health care providers.
 
ummm congress prevented him from doing it. he already passed an executive order closing it; unfortunately in american jurisprudence if an executive order contradicts the will of congress, the courts will be hesitant to enforce it. he did as much as he could on his side.

but obama has been "closing down" gitmo in another way; the white house and dept of justice have been getting other countries to accept the prisoners that have been found not guilty/dangerous.

when there are no more prisoners, there is no more gitmo
