What has the President done that he didn't say he would do when he ran for office ?
I didn't realize that fake protesters and fake YouTube views elected any law makers.
You do not think that propaganda and media influences elections? I'm pretty sure that gets politicians into elected office and is the reason why we need to get lobbyists out of politics.
If fake protesters do not matter, please explain how in Thailand, there have been "protesters" with grenade launchers firing into open crowds? You think an actual protester in that country would be able to afford a rocket launcher or that you can buy those just anywhere? What about in the Ukraine right now where we are backing the "protesters"? What about those that have posed as Tea Party or Occupy Wall Street protesters and have done outrageous things in their name in order to discredit them?
What did Obama say that he would do that he has not?
1. "If you like your healthcare plan, you can keep it." Blatant lie and a campaign promise.
2. "I will close Guantanamo Bay." Not only did he not close it, he failed to negotiate an exchange just last week to get one of our brave soldiers back that has been captive since 2009, even when offering five persons in exchange. Major campaign promise.
3. "We will revisit the Patriot Act and overturn unconstitutional executive decisions issued during the past eight years." We all know how that turned out!
4. "We reject the tracking of citizens who do nothing more than protest a misguided war." NSA spying anyone?
5. "Often the best source about waste, fraud and abuse in government is an existing government employee committed to public integrity and willing to speak out. Such acts of courage and patriotism . . . should be encouraged rather than stifled." Which is why the men brave enough to out our government spying on us have had to flee to foreign countries.
6. "Don’t mock the Constitution. Don’t make fun of it. Don’t suggest that it’s un-American to abide by what the Founding Fathers set up. It’s worked pretty well for over two-hundred years." Which he then proceeded to follow up with calling it a "Charter of negative liberties." and "A flawed document." which is not what you ever want to hear come out of the mouth of your President or any other government official.
7. “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.” Oh look! Another campaign promise shattered. I do not call a plan to pull out several years later and possibly still leaving some personnel abroad as him accomplishing this goal, do you?
8. “Today I’m pledging to cut the deficit we inherited in half by the end of my first term in office. This will not be easy. It will require us to make difficult decisions and face challenges we’ve long neglected. But I refuse to leave our children with a debt that they cannot repay – and that means taking responsibility right now, in this administration, for getting our spending under control.” Yet another campaign promise not only broken, but one so much so that you laugh to keep from crying.
There are plenty more.
What did Obama achieve? Let's look at that too, because it is worth mentioning.
He repealed "Don't ask, don't tell.", allowing gays into our military openly, which makes us more of a target to other countries. He allowed women into combat positions, which not only makes us a target, but a laughing stock, because civilized countries do not send their women to fight their wars for them.
We got Osama Bin Laden under his term. While I credit this to the SEAL Team that got him, I'm going to be generous and credit this to Obama anyway.
He passed Obamacare. Sure, it is screwed up and resulted in insurance companies exploiting a loophole and conning those with better insurance to give up their better plans that would have been grandfathered in, but he actually managed to get something like that passed, which is pretty miraculous when you consider the political climate in this country.
