Legislative Prowess

Despite the characterizations of some, Obama?s success rate in winning
congressional votes on issues was an unprecedented 96.7% for his first
year in office. Though he is often cited as superior to Obama, President
Lyndon Johnson?s success rate in 1965 was only 93%. http://n.pr/i3d7cY

I notice you only included the time where he had a filibuster proof
senate and the house in your chart.
It should have been 100%
How is he doing since 2010?

gee. the GOP has one goal: to destroy obama. if we were attacked by
the japanese tomorrow at pearl harbor, congress would not authorize a
declaration of war if obama wanted it. the GOP right wing hates
america and wants it destroyed. they'll do whatever it takes


He committed to phasing out unnecessary and outdated weapons systems,
and also signed the Weapons Systems Acquisition Reform Act to stop
waste, fraud and abuse in the defense procurement and contracting
system. http://bit.ly/hOw1t1 http://bit.ly/fz8GAd

The DoD budget keeps going up. so that didn't work.

and he's proposed 1 trillion in cuts over the next 10 years. if the
GOP will go along

which they wont


Through an executive order, he created the National Commission on Fiscal
Responsibility and Reform. http://bit.ly/hwKhKa

*Improving the Economy, Preventing Depression

He pushed through and signed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act,
otherwise known as ?the stimulus package,? despite the fact that not one
Republican voted for that bill. In addition, he launched recovery.gov,
so that taxpayers could track spending from the Act.

... and unemployment was stagnant

IOW it didnt go up. thanks we already knew that

the right wants to repeat 1929 in pursuit of their goal to destroy
american



In his first year, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act created
and sustained 2.1 million jobs and stimulated the economy 3.5%.

He barely made up for the new people coming into the system.

guess he doesn't know the federal payroll has been shrinking. oh
well...the right doesnt follow the news



He completed the massive TARP financial and banking rescue plan, and
recovered virtually all of its costs. http://1.usa.gov/eA5jVS

The 1% applauded that

more 'we need another 1929' from the right. notice it's the right
fighting ANY regulation of wall street

andd what did the

white president before him do??

got us into a one trillion dollar war

killed 4400 US troops

got us into a depression

but the right wing thinks that's GREAT because, under the

white

president the rich got richer.

which, for the right wing is all that counts
