Obama has done a whole lot...

[jim-the-earthworm]

I'm not sure if this has been done before, but I'm gonna do it anyway.

What a great guy

Seriously I don't know who your for out there, but really how could you justify this. And if you can please tell me, I would like to know.

[BrianEtrius]

It's funny you post this, when all you have to do is look on the comments on Youtube to prove you wrong.

Obama's been in office for only 2 years. Yes, maybe if you're good you can do something. But a lot of his ideas has to go through as bills in congress, and they may veto it.

Also, name something important that McCain has done in the past 2 years.

This is piss poor journalism, although its pretty damn funny.

One person mentioned a reform bill and they rushed past him. The video also cuts away before they talked to anyone else who raised their hand.

Yea its sad but true. Theres another segment they did awhile back where they had someone on fox say "The only reason he is such a big deal is because he is black"
"he smokes"
"his middle name is hussein" OH FUCK RUN FOR YOUR LIFE

[JackPhantasm]

I would vote for him if he were only a janitor.

Narrow minded fucks.

You have to be in a system and be consumed by it before you can understand it? I think that would make you understand it less.

The less experience obama has the better.

I'm not here to bash Obama or praise McCain. While I think this was bad reporting and editing, what has Obama really accomplished in the senate other than getting people to like him? His website says his law he helped passed to show where every dime of tax payers money go......everything else he is a a "voice" for.

[JackPhantasm]

the fact that he got into this position at all OBVIOUSLY means a lot imo

are you the candidate for president? no?

well then.

yes it means he got people to like him. I am not going to say he is not one charismatic mofo, but has he really accomplished in the senate. That is my question.

[Helicopterz]

how does that mean fucking anything?

that's my question

[hrb5711]

Well usually before you "hire" someone for a senior position you like to see what kind of history they have.

Why is everyone so defensive? It is a simple question.

[Helicopterz]

He has lived in this country for 40 something years.

That's really all the experience necessary. He went to school. GOOD schools. Educated, smart.

I don't understand how that doesn't answer your question. Why is being in the senate relevant to running a country? That's running a construct in the country, he merely went through it because that's what you've got to do if you want to change the country you're in. (not really) but that's the path he chose, so what if he did it quickly?

:So you would be fine with a Wal-Mart greeter running this country? Most of them have been here for 40 years.

He went to school. GOOD schools. Educated, smart.

:Ok that is a good start, but that has nothing to do with what he did in the senate.

I don't understand how that doesn't answer your question.

:Do you understand my question? What are his accomplishments in the senate?

Why is being in the senate relevant to running a country?

:It's usually the first experience someone gets in national government. So I think being in the senate or congress is relevant.

so what if he did it quickly?

I'm not saying speed is a bad thing. I just think he should have something to show for it.

Why is this question so hard? The answers is simple "Senator Obama did......."

[Helicopterz]

what has he done in the senate

he's gained the respect of his part to the extent where they want to him to be president

so then you see, you are calling into question the judgement of the ENTIRE democratic party, if you label obama as not the right guy.

It's not very hard to do, you know.

I don't understand why it's hard either.

Senator Obama did pass the Federal Funding and Accountability act of 2006

[Jizzlebang]

The question is if you can take anything Sean Hannity says seriously.

He's a joke. An arrogant pompous joke.

[Elfer]

Very worst part of this video, which should be considered an embarrassment for Hannity:

Dude: (inaudible) ...his reform bill in congress (mic handler moves mic immediately)
Hannity: (high pitched) pff, whaaaaat?

I do kinda agree. His ENTIRE party thinks he's experienced enough to do the job. I'd agree with Republicans if Mccain was alleged to be too inexperienced too, for that exact reason. Your favourite media outlet might be saying he's inexperienced, but he's almost certainly not.

Anyway we don't even care about that shit so much over here in the UK. Any examples of presidents who sucked primarily due to their inexperience, or is it just a baseless assumption that you need a lifetime in politics to be president?

[Gunter45]

And yet, McCain is one of the most absent senators in Congress. He votes on fewer things than almost anyone, even when he's not campaigning. This year, actually, he is the most absent senator.

Guess what, though? That shit shouldn't matter, either.

Common man sure you hire people for their history but also for their skills. If he can speak to foreign leaders the same way he speaks to this country I think its safe to say he wins the foreign policy argument, not the "100 years in iraq" troll.

Also, I don't see why everyone is so worked up about what he has accomplished (i dont know personally, but i don't know what mccain, or romney, or hilary has either). Hes got potential, something which mccain is running out of.

First off this is not about McCain. Like I said I am not here to bash or praise either canidate.

So far, from what everyone has said here, the biggest acomplishment is his personalilty....
and the bill that makes the government show where all the tax money is going to, which I already mentioned.

[TheKlown]

Obamas hero is ted kennedy, the same ted kennedy who is a known drunk. The same Ted Kennedy that killed a girl in a driving accident and didn't face one day behind bars because of his kennedy name. He drove off a bridge into the water, let the woman die in there. Go out of the car swam to shore, didn't even tell anyone she was in there... Nope, the fucking drunk went home and fell asleep!!!

Thats Obamas hero, a murderer who should have been behind bars but since he has money he can get away with murder.

Ted Kennedy better stay in his own shithole state where they love him to death, because if he came to Jersey I'll knock his ass out and choke him to death. And I find it sick that the family let him pay them off for killing there daughter... Disgusting when everything in this world has a price on it.

since when do politicians do anything?
