Universal Health Care for US citizens-NO
Bring and end to US troops being stationed in Iraq-NO
Close Guantanamo Bay-NO
Build a green economy-NO
Create a new clean energy plan-NO


Here is a better more accurate list of his accomplishments.

And yet a few more things he didn't accomplish.

The majority of his accomplishments are issuing guidelines and releasing his vision for something. This does not mean those issues are being handled, it only means he has looked at them and has put forth his opinion in a guideline of how he thinks things should be worked out, or in a vision of what he thinks should happen.

Well, he is sorta' being screamed at by Republicans after every little thing he does. I mean, a few weeks back he got involved somehow with a small school system, and the Republicans step in and say he's trying to turn every child into a Democrat. Right.

I was like 'WOW SERIOUSLY? i broke up a fistfight the other day and nobody got hurt. wheres MY nobel peace prize? its complete crap, he hasnt done much more than ANY other political figure should do. if Obama is getting a nobel for the little he has done, what standards will be set for the future nobel winners? will Al Gore win another nobel for his B.S. on global warming? (try looking at his references, as well as 'evidence' and see how much of it is actually substantial)

I'm sorry to say this but I think one of the reasons is because he is the first black president.

UHC- Being constantly blocked by whiny Republicans who will veto any bill that Obama backs simply because they're mad that they lost.

Iraq War- Bush sent our troops in there, completely destroyed the government and army, and you want to leave without making sure they can at least support themselves again?

Gitmo- This, I agree with you on, but due to the questionable legality of the facility, there's a lot of red tape to cut through. Also, at least SOME of the inmates are definitely terrorists, and we don't want them wandering the streets.

Green economy- Is this the sort of thing that happens overnight? OBAMA IS NOT GOD. He can't just wave his magic "Hope" wand and transform every car into a hybrid and every power plant into a wind farm. These things take time.

Clean energy plan- Again, it doesn't happen overnight.

I think Obama is awesome.

Now here's a post that's going to swing everyone behind the new Prez! Such eloquence brings tears to my eyes...


Seriously folks, this conversation should be on the Nobel peace prize, not politics.

Aww. My post wasn't long enough? Do you want me to put a bunch of fancy long words as filler and be all redundant? JK. ;) I just think he's cool. That's all I can say since I can't really tell what his plans are. He is a really good magician and tactician as far as I can tell.
