Mostly because I am bored and I find chats on GFY about Obamacare comical. We've needed healthcare for some time now, and finally someone did something about it. In the end this healthcare law will be accepted by the vast majority and participation will increase. If we are lucky, it will work out as well as Romeycare did in Mass.

I'm not whining. You are. You started the thread, which was nothing more than you beating a dead horse.

And I fail to understand why.
When he was elected we were at the lowest point since the Great Depression and our economy in a complete free fall. He did exactly what was needed. He calmed every one down, righted the damn ship, and is slowly getting the economy where it belongs. Keep in mind this is not a four or eight year problem - This is more like a ten to twenty year problem.
Our economy is exactly where we realistically expected it to be. Unemployment is down, new housing is up (18% as of this morning), stock market is up, individual wealth is up, everything is doing better. You will argue the unemployment statistic until you are out of breath, and then say something like "but our wealth is down compared to 2006" which is obvious because everyone's wealth is down because our economy and housing market and stock market crashed.

Obama approval rating 41%

Yeah, Congress has an approval rate of 13%, and yes, that includes Democrats. The entire political agenda of the Republicans in Congress has been to trash the President (and Obamacare). Nothing is getting done because of this.
This is the worst possible strategy for the Republican party. They are wasting four years, getting nothing done, and when it comes time to run in 2016 the Dems will say we have an improving economy and a working healthcare plan, and the Republicans will have little more than bad breath.

You keep telling yourself how smart you are, while you make threads complaining using catch phrases directly from Fox News.

No, not caring; I am not a Democrat.
I believe Hillary will win, but I think she's a horrible choice. This has been a planned and well though out scheme to get her into the Oval Office that started shortly after Clinton left the White House. She's been a political insider most of her life, was first lady, a Senator with no track record, and then Secretary of State with no major accomplishments. It might qualify her for the White House, but it surely doesn't make her any good. Then again, Obama had a less than impressive track record and he's sitting in the Oval Office right now.
But I think she'll win - mostly because the Republican party will have had no accomplishments in the past eight years, and after having a black president Americans will be much more receptive to a women president.
I do think it will be amusing to see her debate, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
