 Obama's First Six Months' Accomplishments
 
 1. Offended the Queen of England.
 2. Bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia.
 3. Praised the Marxist Daniel Ortega.
 4. Kissed Socialist Hugo Chavez on the cheek.
 5. Endorsed the Socialist Evo Morales of Bolivia.
 6. Sided with Hugo Chavez and Communist Fidel Castro against Honduras.
 7. Announced we would meet with Iranians with no pre-conditions
 while they're building their nuclear weapons.
 8. Gave away billions to AIG also without pre-conditions.
 9. Expanded the bailouts.
 10. Insulted everyone who has ever loved a Special Olympian.
 11. Doubled our national debt.
 12. Announced the termination of our new missile defense system the
 day after North Korea launched an ICBM.
 13. Released information on U.S. intelligence gathering despite
 urgings of his own CIA director and the prior four CIA directors.
 14. Accepted without comment that five of his cabinet members cheated
 on their taxes and two other nominees withdrew after they couldn't
 take the heat.
 15. Appointed a Homeland Security Chief who identified military
 veterans and abortion opponents as "dangers to the nation."
 16. Ordered that the word "terrorism" no longer be used and instead
 refers to such acts as "man made disasters."
 17. Circled the globe to publicly apologize for America 's world leadership.
 18. Told the Mexican president that the violence in their country was
 because of us.
 19. Politicized the census by moving it into the White House from the
 Department of Commerce.
 20. Appointed as Attorney General the man who orchestrated the forced
 removal and expulsion to Cuba of a 9-year-old whose mother died trying
 to bring him to freedom in the United States.
 21. Salutes as heroes three Navy SEALS who took down three terrorists
 who threatened one American life and the next day announces members of
 the Bush administration may stand trial for "torturing" three 9/11
 terrorists by pouring water up their noses.
 22. Low altitude photo shoot of Air Force One over New York City that
 frightened thousands of New Yorkers.
 23. Sent his National Defense Adviser to Europe to assure them that
 the US will no longer treat Israel in a special manner and they might
 be on their own with the Muslims.
 24. Praised Jimmy Carter's trip to Gaza where he sided with terrorist
 Hamas against Israel .
 25. Nationalized General Motors and Chrysler while turning
 shareholder control over to the unions and freezing out retired
 investors who owned their bonds. Committed unlimited taxpayer
 billions in the process.

   26. At a press conference, he called the Police, responding to a 911 call, "Stupid" after he admitted he didn't know all the facts  He didn't apologize, but to smooth things over,  he invited the cop and the citizen to have a beer at the White House.
 27. Passed a huge energy tax in the House that will make American
 industry even less competitive while costing homeowners thousands per
 year.
 28. Announced nationalized health care "reform" that will strip
 seniors of their Medicare, cut pay of physicians, increase taxes yet
 another $1 trillion, and put everyone on rationed care with government
 bureaucrats deciding who gets care and who doesn't.
 Bloomberg: Daschle says, "Health care reform will not be pain free.
 Seniors should be more accepting of the conditions that come with age
 instead of treating them," while former Colorado Governor Dick Lamm
 says seniors have "a duty to die."
 
 If this does not sufficiently raise your ire, just remember that the
 President, Senators and Congressmen have their own special gold plated
 health care plan which is guaranteed the remainder of their lives and
 they are not subject to this new law if they pass it.
 
 Please use the power of the Internet to get this message out. Talk it
 up at the grassroots level. We have an election coming up in one year
 and four months where we can reverse the dangerous direction of the
 Obama administration and its allies.

 Obama's First Six Months' Accomplishments
 

 


Let's compare it to The First Six Months of George W. Bush:

         
             Here is a list of his work in his first six months:

           * Significantly eased field-testing controls of genetically engineered crops.

           * Cut federal spending on libraries by $39 million.

           * Cut $35 million in funding for doctors to get advanced paediatric training.

           * Cut by 50% funding for research into renewable energy sources.

           * Revoked rules that reduced the acceptable levels of arsenic drinking water.

           * Blocked rules that would require federal agencies to offer bilingual assistance to non-English
              speaking persons. This, from a candidate who would readily fire-up his Spanish-speaking
              skills in front of would-be Hispanic voters.

           * Proposed to eliminate new marine protections for the Channel Islands and the coral reefs of
              northwest Hawaii. San Francisco Chronicle, April 6, 2001

           * Cut funding by 28% for research into cleaner, more efficient cars and trucks.

           * Suspended rules that would have strengthened the government's ability to deny contracts to
              companies that violated workplace safety, environmental and other federal laws.

           * OK'd Interior Department appointee Gale Norton to send out letters to state officials
              soliciting suggestions for opening up national monuments for oil and gas drilling, coal mining,
              and foresting.

           * Appointed John Negroponte - an un-indicted high level Iran Contra figure - to the post of
              United Nations ambassador.
 
           * Abandoned a campaign pledge to invest $100 million for rain forest conservation.

           * Reduced by 86% the Community Access Program for public hospitals, clinics and providers
              of care for people without insurance.

           * Rescinded a proposal to increase public access to information about the potential
              consequences resulting from chemical plant accidents.

           * Suspended rules that would require hardrock miners to clean up sites on Western public lands.

           * Cut $60 million from a Boy's and Girl's Clubs of America program for public housing.

           * Proposed to eliminate a federal program designed to help communities (and successfully
              used in Seattle) prepare for natural disasters.

           * Pulled out of the 1997 Kyoto Treaty global warming agreement.

           * Cut $200 million of work force training for dislocated workers.

           * Eliminated funding for the Wetlands Reserve Program, which encourages farmers to
              maintain wetlands habitat on their property.

           * Cut program to provide childcare to low-income families as they move from welfare to work.

           * Cut a program that provided prescription contraceptive coverage to federal employees
              (though it still pays for ****).

           * Cut $700 million in capital funds for repairs in public housing.

           * Appointed Otto Reich - an un-indicted high level Iran Contra figure-to Assistant Secretary
              of State for Inter-American Affairs.

           * Cut Environmental Protection Agency budget by $500 million.

           * Proposed to curtail the ability of groups to sue in order to get an animal placed on the
              Endangered Species List.

           * Rescinded rule that mandated increased energy-saving efficiency regulations for central air
              conditioners and heat pumps.

           * Repealed workplace ergonomic rules designed to improve worker health and safety.

           * Abandoned campaign pledge to regulate carbon dioxide (CO2), the waste gas that
              contributes to global warming.

           * Banned federal aid to international family planning programs that offer abortion counselling
              with other independent funds.

           * Closed White House Office for Women's Health Initiatives and Outreach.

           * Nominated David Lauriski - ex-mining company executive-to post of Assistant Secretary of
              Labour for Mine Safety and Health.

This would make a lovely forward to send to all the right-wing extremist and ask them: 'Where were you with your outrage and signs when this crap was going on?

The only one I'll disagree completely with is #7, chazey.

1) There is no evidence that Iran is building, or has built, any nuclear weapons.

2) Iran has stated that they are building a nuclear power plant, which they are certainly allowed to do.

3) There are reports by credible sources that Israel has built over 200 nuclear weapons, which they are NOT, under international law, allowed to do.

4) Both Pakistan and India have conducted tests of their nuclear weapon capability, neither one of which are allowed to have.

Since all US aggressive military acts have been against nations that don't have a nuclear weapon, and many have been against Israel's alleged enemies, it would be in Iran's best interests to have nuclear weapons.  But, so far, the evidence suggests, if not proves, that Iran is holding up to the agreement that they signed.

Also, #24 is Zionist propaganda.  The Palestinians elected Hamas to be their leaders.  They are only 'terrorists' to Israel, much like our Founding Fathers were 'terrorists' to their King George.
