^^^ I figured the reactionaries here would like that. Obama increased the war effort in Afghanistan and has kept some American personnel in Iraq. He supported bombing Lybia. He compromised so much on the Health Care Plan that it is a shell of the One Payer System we should have, and which every other Westernized democracy in the world already has. He caved in on closing Guantanamo Bay. He caved in on trying the 9/11 terrorists in New York. He followed Bush's lead in connection with the bank bailout. He didn't hold Wall Street and the big banks responsible for the great Recession--no one was prosecuted. He compromised and cow-towed to the Republicans during his first two years, when he had big majorities in both houses of Congress and could have rammed his agenda through. He is a moderate to somewhat conservative Democrat and has been an utter disappointment as President, promising way more than he has delivered. In November, I will hold my nose and vote for him because he's better than whoever the Republicans put up.
