Barack Obama’s disastrous first 1,000 days
The Telegraph ^ | 10/18/2011 | Nile Gardiner

If recent polls are any indication, it is doubtful that President Obama will enjoy another 1,000 days in the White House. And looking at his track record over the course of his first 33 months in office, it is not hard to see why. It is hard to think of a presidency in modern times that has done more to damage the United States both at home and abroad than the current one, with the possible exception of Jimmy Carter’s. Like his Democratic predecessor in the 1970’s, Barack Obama has left the world’s dominant superpower on its knees, with faith in US leadership now being questioned across the globe.

Since taking office in January 2009, President Obama has ushered in a period of relentless economic decline for the United States. His administration has added $4.2 trillion to the national debt (now standing at $14.9 trillion), lost 2.2 million jobs, introduced a vastly expensive health-care albatross, and spent nearly $800 billion on a failed stimulus package. At the same time, house prices across the country have tumbled at an unprecedented rate, consumer confidence has plummeted, and millions more Americans are now dependent upon food stamps. International confidence in the US economy has fallen to its lowest levels in decades, with credit agency Standard and Poor’s downgrading of America’s AAA credit rating for the first time in 70 years in August this year.

Yes, but can we defeat his voter fraud?

Wisconsin has "photo ID" as of next month. I'm going out on a limb here, I predict that the Badger State will be Rosy Republican Red next November.

Photo ID is wonderful. However...

What about all of the mail-in ballots? Ballots for people who didn’t even know they voted, voted Democrat.

Heard about this after BOs election, and then of course the story got “lost”.

How about the busloads of people carried from down South to Iowa. Carried from precinct to precinct to register and vote in each of them?

We need the voter rolls cleaned. Period.

You need a photo ID to re-register and we need to require a photo ID to vote. Vote on paper ballots that can be double-checked. You should have to color in a little circle.

I saw estimates ranging from 10 to 25% of the vote for BO was fraudulent. Talk about being disenfranchised! Makes me sick.
