To The Daily: Well, the man who, according to Mrs. Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden, was unqualified and did not have the experience to be president was re-elected. And not by Alabama and the South, but by big cities in California, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Florida and others.
So what has President Barack Obama done in the last four years that justifies his re-election? A $16 trillion national debt. An increase in food stamp spending: $82 billion. Some 80 percent of the farm bill is food stamp spending. Only $40 billion in the federal highway bill.
Nov. 14 was his first news conference in months, and he evaded most of the questions. There have been 1,790 deaths in Afghanistan and Iraq. No immigration bill, which was promised during his first year. Attorney General Eric Holder did not have time to read the Arizona immigration bill but condemned it.
Mr. Obama has never had a budget. How about Solyndra and the other money pits? He has made apology tours, but no visit to Israel. There are 50 million Americans in poverty. What about Gitmo and 2 percent less money going into Social Security for two years? Or a plug-in fleet for White House vehicles, with half the fleet to be hybrid or electric.
Dozens of broken promises.

He is a liar and thief and there has been no proof that he is an american citizen either. A fake birth certificate copy , why in Gods name did these fools allow him back in office. I can assure you no one I know voted for the Idiot , the election just like the rest of his lies was fixed/bought /stolen take your choice
You never know how your friends voted... Thankfully there are people in other parts of the country. more intelligent, than people in the South.. Hell, the south is still fighting the Civil War so why expect anything else...
Rose these folks will never accept responsibility for electing a looser candidate. Looser losers can't accept loss. There is no grace in them. And we wonder why Alabama is always on the bottom.
Bubba says Republicans lets move forward....
wow. i love seeing articles or opinion pieces like this letter to the editor. it makes it obvious that the writer has not paid attention to what has been going on in DC, either by being incapable of doing so willfully ignoring it. the writer is also over 80% certain to be a faux news viewer as well.
heres a blurb i just read from http://www.politicususa.com/block-blame-successful-republican-filibuster-strategy.html , entitled 'Since Democrats took control of the Senate in 2006, Republicans Have Mounted 380 Filibusters':
'It’s not as if Republicans didn’t announce that their tactic would be to obstruct every single thing President Obama wanted to accomplish. They did.'
so fighting against the most obstructionist do nothing congress in history, obama was still able to: pass badly needed health care reform, pass the stimulus, passed wall street reform, ended the useless war in iraq, took out OBL, repealed dont ask dont tell, and many more.
just because a man is elected does not mean he gets to wave a magic wand and have all his campaign promises come true. and for the record, an 'apology tour' never happened. that is an entirely fabricated bit of faux news propaganda. that is why that organization cannot call itself fox news in canada, because its not a news org. most of it is utter trash not fit to be called news.
(full list found at http://www.washingtonmonthly.com/magazine/march_april_2012/features/obamas_top_50_accomplishments035755.php)

Meanwhile, a missile fired from a drone killed another top al queda leader.
Seriously Robert, get help man. Just ask. There are people that love you and will help you. And, the best part is Jesus loves you.
Semper Fi
Wait till you get all the surprises he has in store for you , then see how you wish you had voted
It doesn't matter how anyone voted here in Alabama all of the electoral votes went to Romney, So even if I rose or James voted for Obama they were not counted OK
OH BY THE WAY Florida is in the South, And Obama also killed a bunch of those pirates off the horn of Africa,
I always love it when someone spews vitrol and then say's " Wait and See " Oh did I mention that you can't prevent somone from doing something and then say look he didn't do nothing when what you really mean is he didn't do what I and my party wanted.
He when to Israel but not to campain for money!
Ditto Bubba, Rose,Jena & Casinokid. BTW the warped opinions of the few angry unfortunates who spew nothing but critisim and right wing hate on these pages are, thank goodness, speaking only for their own lonely lives.
That is what happens when you elect a liar for president. He is intent in taking this country down. Look for a unprecendented 3rd term for this president. I know...it goes against the Constitution. Won't matter.
And Rose, you are the idiot.
nice, greg. why don't you step away from mom's computer and go play outside with the other children?
Oh I also forgot about him holding BP Accountable to reimburse Alabama business for their losses.
The only thing successful Obama has EVER done is breathe air. Other than than, he is about as productive as a rock.
Rose 1-are you in the south? LEAVE . 2-moved out of the south? good, stop concerning yourself with it. 3- never lived in the south. THEN WHY COMMENT. BUT then again, you do have freedom of speech...to a certain extent.......for now. enjoy while you can.
The entitlement believing, freebie seeking, crowds have been blinded by the bright lights of political illusions like a calf lead to the slaughter. This group isn't capable of acknowledging the washed out bridge ahead due to the huge "FREE" sign. We'll all soon learn the true cost of "FREE"! Stay tuned for round #2!
the sky is falling! im moving to canada! lets secede from the union! omg, a black democrat is in the white house! woe is all of us!
you whiny losers make me laugh.
Just keep laughing, James. This will affect you too, but you are too uneducated to see that.
DOOM and GLOOM Everyone's suffering will end soon enough on the 21st shucks we won't even see Christmas or the fiscal cliff.
Obama won. Get over it.
greg, i i will through my resume up against yours anyday. 90% odds that i am more highly educated than you are. so try some other way to insult someone on the internet. moron.
and that should be 'i will *throw*...' must be my miseducation showing through, huh, greg?
to roses stupid comment that the south is still fighting the civil war====could be true +++ however its a known fact the north put in place the failed whatever we have now --TRY THE STATE OF MAINE FOR EXAMPLE AND ASK THE NEW GOVG WHAT KIND OF MESS HE INHERITED---
YEAH ROSE. CAPS LOCK HAS BEEN ACTIVATED. INTERNET RAMBLING IS SERIOUS BUSINESS!
This nation will fall just like Rome.
The end is near!
agree with patriot.
The fall of this nation will have little to do with government, economics, or the media. The nation's health is reflected in the hatred, bigotry, and lack of compassion shown on these pages daily. This rampant negativity coupled with a "what's in it for me": attitude from both the "haves and the have nots" places our nation in greater jeopardy than anything else. While we are busy criticizing everyone and everything, our enemies sit patiently and wait for just the right moment to swoop in and take over. God save us ~
