Thread to list the good things Obama has done.[serious]

Dep of Justice says they won't be prosecuting federal drug laws in states that legalize weed.

4) Credit Card Reform

Dodd-Frank: a retarded law named after two of the dumbest retards on the hill.

Chris Dodd is a piece of shit. He's in charge of the MPAA now.

It's always amused me how close the democrats are with the recording and film industries. Makes sense considering the people who work in them I guess. It's just hilarious how anti-business Hollywood is with every industry but itself. You see the same thing of course with music and journalism and any industry populated by graduates of degree programs with very poor job prospects and high competition for employment.

Oh yeah something good he did: he delayed the employer mandate for the health care law by a year. That is far and away the worst part of the law.

Hollywood isn't a monolithic entity. Just because some people associated with it are anti-business and some people associated with it want to crack down on piracy doesn't mean there's any contradiction.

[MRT144]

I mean, really, anyone playing the "associated with" card in politics is dumb as a post.

Why would a particular industry give a shit about another?

Look at the financial industry. They don't care about anyone but themselves.

I thought selfishness was one of the right wingers' most treasured values.

1) Saved autoindustry
2) Killed Osama
3) Ended the Iraq war. Sort of.

You must be Walter's boy.

Let's apply your blanket statement of Hollywood to another group.

Many Republicans associate themselves with racists so this must mean that all Republicans are racist.

I would have thought that some conservative posters on here would be celebrating the decrease in deficit spending under President Obama.

[giblets]

Yes I'm sure conservatives are celebrating the fact that Obama's deficit spending is not as it was during his first term.

Decrease? It's actually increased. Government spent 350 billion in just one day now that they have 'unlimited debt ceiling' from here to February.

And hey, a post without a slur. Good job, Mr. Fun.

You're a republican? I suppose it's possible since some Republicans are from Iowa.
