Middle ground for what exactly???
Scandal after scandal. Failure after failure.
Yeah, he is not the worst. Okay then.
Remember last year when Obama promised he would take a 5% pay cut by "writing" a check back to the government every month because he felt "guilty" about federal employees taking furloughs and he wanted to be "in solidarity" ? - See more at: www.abovetopsecret.com...

No further response is needed.
If we have not gotten our troops out by the time I am president, it is the first thing I will do. I will get our troops home, we will end this war. You can take that to the bank.”
In Obama’s campaign, he promised to “eliminate entirely” income tax for seniors making less
than $50,000. Yet another blatant lie right to your face.
On an interview on The Today Show Obama claimed he won the Michigan & Illinois Primaries,
which is a lie.
GREGORY: But Senator you have not demonstrated that you can decisively put the nomination away. You have also not demonstrated that you can win some of the big states that’ll be important in a general election. California, New York, Ohio.
OBAMA: Well David we’ve won Michigan and Georgia and Illinois and Missouri.
The only involvement I had with Acorn was doing some stuff with the justice department.
Obama made it clear with this statement directly from his campaign website:
“My father served in World War II”
Obama said in a campaign speech below that his father served in World War 2.
Public Will Have 5 Days To Look At Every Bill That Lands On My Desk
Obama Lied about giving the public 5 days to look at the health care bill before signing it, but then again, is it any surprise from the people that said you’ll save 3000% on your health Care Costs? To them I’m sure it made sense that Sunday Night to Tuesday Morning was 5 days.
1. Make Government Open and Transparent
2. Make it “Impossible” for Congressmen to slip in Pork Barrel Projects
3. Meetings where laws are written will be more open to the public (republicans shut out)
4. No more secrecy
5. Public will have 5 days to look at a Bill
6. You’ll know what’s in it (Republican Senators didn’t know)
7. We will put every pork barrel project online
“No more Illegal Wire Tapping of American Citizens”
Of course, the illegal wire tapping of American citizens continues to this day.
The Promise to Walk the Picket Line if Workers are Denied the Right to Bargain
Did you really believe this one? lol what a joke!
Promises to Close Guantanamo Bay and End Torture[/
I am Somebody who Promotes Same-Sex Marriage
What was his timeline Election Time! Obama kept flip-flopping on the Same-sex Marriage Issue. Yet another lie. Not until election time did he Really OK the Same Sex Marriage for people who wanted it. He used YOU!
Promise to Cut Deficit in Half
Soon after Obama took office he pledged that his administrated would cut the deficit in half. Closing in on the last year of his term his pledge made in February of 2009 is laughable, and just another item on his list of lies.
“If you like the healthcare plan you have, you can keep it.”
Obama Claims Border Fence ‘Basically Complete’ but It’s Only 5% Finished
“They wanted more agents on the border. Well, we now have more boots on the ground on the southwest border than at any time in our history. The Border Patrol has 20,000 agents – more than twice as many as there were in 2004, a build up that began under President Bush and that we have continued. They wanted a fence. Well, that fence is now basically complete.”
The Government Accountability Office (GAO), Congress’s investigative arm, reported in early 2009 that only 32 miles of double-layer fencing had been built. That means under President Obama, only 4.3 miles of double layer fencing has been built. This is woefully inadequate.
“We got back Every Dime we Used to Rescue the Banks with Interest”
The Congressional Budget Office–based on figures from Obama’s own Office of Management and Budget—gives a different assessment.
“The cost to the federal government of the TARP’s transactions (also referred to as the subsidy cost), including grants for mortgage programs that have not yet been made, will amount to $24 billion,” said the CBO report, which was released on the same day Obama spoke.

Government after government get these scandals coming up all the time, sometimes repeatedly. Of course they are serious for those affected. But, this about the grass roots looking after/not looking after less fortunate grass roots.
What's the point of making political 'points' out of this kind of scandal like those two quotes just to blacken Obama's name?
It's those people at the immediate direct helm who need the shiite shaken out of.
Here in the UK we've had scandals, several in fact, of old folks being mistreated in care homes and, those with special care disabilities being beaten or left. Also guess what? falsified treatment records. It's the system that is at fault. If it was the press that unearthed this, good on them and heads should roll, and things fixed.
Last night, Dr Black explained that a number of factors account for the startling 80,000 figure, but stressed the main problem is patients from the Republic inappropriately accessing healthcare in Northern Ireland.
"We are definitely aware of the fact that there are more patients registered than there are people who live in the area," he said.
His comments come after this newspaper revealed the number of medical cards registered in Northern Ireland is up to 80,000 higher than the number of people who live here – currently around 1.8m.

But you guys don't get it. You make it seem like the Republicans can save us. Do you really believe that? You make it seem like Obama lied more than Bush. Do you really believe that? You also make it seem like we would have been better off with Romney. Do you really believe that? 3 good questions.

I think all Americans should be mad as hell, including the president. But lets not forget who keeps voting against veterans.
This is from this year.
Republicans block Senate bill to boost veterans' benefits
A bill to increase spending for veterans' services failed to move forward in the Senate, despite support from 54 Democrats and two Republicans.
A divided Senate on Thursday derailed Democratic legislation that would have provided $21 billion for medical, education, and job-training benefits for the nation's veterans. The bill fell victim to election-year disputes over spending and fresh penalties against Iran.
Republicans block Senate....
GOP Voted Against 7 Bills to Help Veterans
Here's the Bills in numerical order. In short, the GOP has voted TO NOT SUPPORT THE TROOPS at least 7 times. I think that is sufficient to call the GOP House Hypocrites and Phonies.
Bill's Blocked By Republican's Since President Obama Took Office.
David Gregory, John McCain, and the media aren't covering this story so we have to.
Here's a concise extraction for easy viewing for those who are INTERESTED IN VETERANS ISSUES and need to know which party supports veterans and which party does not.
The rejected Bills are named:
H.R. 466 – Wounded Veteran Job Security Act became H. R. 2875.
H.R. 1168 -- Veterans Retraining Act
H.R. 1171 – Homeless Veterans Reintegration Program Reauthorization
H.R. 1172 -- Requiring List on VA Website of Organizations Providing Scholarships for Veterans
H.R. 1293 -- Disabled Veterans Home Improvement and Structural Alteration Grant Increase Act of 2009
H.R. 1803 -- Veterans Business Center Act
H.R. 2352 – Job Creation Through Entrepreneurship Act
GOP Voted Against 7 Bills....
