And to answer the last question. Obama is a 2 term president of the United States. A slightly larger accomplishment then you, or Romney, ever had. But keep living in that Republican dream world.

You left out the big one.. They reigned in spending. Something this administration doesn't want to do. If you are impressed with Obama, good deal. His credentials to be president were at best weak and at worst nonexistent.
You can bet large I will keep living in my republican dream world. I'm having a great time. Having the ability to do whatever I want whenever I want is excellent. And doing it all first-class is even better. So you enjoy your democrat world of hope and change..who knows maybe it will.
