1. Vowed NOT to take outside money for his campaign..but reversed
       himself.

    What do you mean by "outside money," and who did he take it from? Martians?

No, Don, and quit trying to be pretentious. He was only going to use money allotted by the government, not by 'private'(read: 'Corporate') contributions.

A 'reversal'? ..No, he lied!
.....................................................
    2. Transparency.

    That's pretty vague. What do you mean by "transparency?"

What do you think I mean??..Again, you avoid having to state the obvious. This guy has done most everything AWAY from being transparent!

He Lied!
..................................................................
    3. Campaigned that NO lobbyists would have a cabinet position.

    There are lobbyists and lobbyists. Emissaries with a valise full of money from fat-cats to buy the favors of politicians are called "lobbyists." Private citizens who merely buttonhole a politician and call his attention to a concern—but have no money to offer—are ALSO called "lobbyists." Which cabinet members are you referring to and who have they lobbied for?

He lied!

    4. Gitmo.

    On-going problem started by Bush. What exactly is Obama supposed to do about it. Close it? Simply release suspected terrorists? If you have a solution to that situation, maybe you'd better write Obama a letter and tell him what it is.

He said he was going to close it, during his campaign. He didn't. He lied!
...................................................
    5. Was going to decrease the Mid-East war, then invades Afghanistan.

    History lesson, GfS: Afghanistan was invaded during the Bush administration. Remember? You want to blame that on Obama? So do the Republicans.

Add Libya, as well. Obama is AN EXTENSION of BUSH and his policies!..What are you?..Blind??
....................................................
    6. Extended Bush tax cuts, when he said he wasn't.

    HE didn't extend the tax cuts, Congress did. Remember?

He compromised, and signed it, didn't he...HE lied!
...................................
    7. Single payer health care plan.

    He sure gave it a shot. But Congress immediately went to work ripping it to shreds. Remember?

He compromised, and signed it, didn't he...HE lied!
...................................

    8. Said he was going to go after big pharma.

    Part of the health care plan he tried to put across. See above.
Big Pharma was catered to, by Obama, so were the insurance companies..Don't you remember????
....................................................

    9. Bailouts to stimulate the economy, but gave it to his banker
       cronies.

    When? And which "banker cronies?" Names? Institutions?

The Bankers, and multi-nationals, that's who!....Were the funds used to start jobs?..Here, let me refresh your memory:..""From: GUEST,Guest from Sanity

Two headlines on the same paper today: "FEMA faces shortfall on funds for tornado victims"

"Obama administration approves $34 million bonus for six Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae execs."

Go figure!!!"

AND:....
READ THE FIRST PARAGRAPH!!...more if you want too!

He lied!
.....................................

    10.Unemployment would not be above 8%.

    One does one's damndest, but one doesn't always succeed. Things like unemployment rates and other things economic generally depend on circumstances beyond one's control. To say that one "intends to" or "will try to" and then for various reasons not be able to does NOT make one a "liar."

See above! (#9)
...................................
    11.Military tribunals.

    What about them? He's had opposition on all sides on that one, too... They're still here, aren't they? He lied!..Even though, personally, I'm more in favor of them, than civil trials for his terrorist buds.
......................................

    12.Being against the 'Patriot Act', then extends it. (Joe Biden one of
       it's authors.)

    It may very well have been a wise move under the circumstances. I don't know for sure. Neither do you.

If he said he would repeal it, and didn't, that's called a lie!. Being as Biden was one of the chief authors, of it, I'm sure he NEVER was intending to repeal it!
He lied!
.......................................

    13.OBL details, and false press releases and lying in his speech to
       the country. (again transparency)

    Again, you're very vague. Specifics, please. What are you talking about?

Are you pretending that you don't remember the accounts that the White House released of the OBL raid?..Here: Start at the top, and read the ever changing 'accounts' including his speech, to the nation! ....BS: obit: Osama Bin Laden ???
He lied through his teeth!....remember he was armed, then unarmed, the shoved one of his ol' ladies at the seals, then didn't....etc. etc


    14.Reneged on energy policy.

    Tried again. BIG opposition. He's bucking BIG OIL and their cronies in Congress. Again, to try and not be able to because of the opposition doesn't mean one "reneged." Put the blame where it belongs!

"...He's bucking BIG OIL..."
Yeah, I remember 'bucking' BP!



    15.Claimed France was our closest ally.

    When did he do this? At a diplomatic dinner? What was he supposed to do, tell the French we hate their guts? Glad YOU'RE not in the ambassadorial corp. We'd be a war with everybody!

THE ONLY REASON YOU DON'T CLOCK THEM AS LIES, IS BECAUSE YOU STILL BELIEVE THEM!...SO, AS LONG AS YOU ARE DECEIVED, AND ARE MAKING EXCUSES FOR HIM, TO YOU THEY 'SEEM' LIKE TRUTHS. That just shows how far off, and deluded you, and your ilk are!!!

STICK TO MUSIC!!...At least there is some sort of truth to base something you 'believe' in on!

BTW, have a nice day, as well!..(waving)
