Yes.

In our society everybody gets a trophy for trying.

I've seen Rick talk some pretty nasty stuff about Obama actually. Particularly his disappointment with him on several issues and initiatives. You seem to want to generalize EVERYBODY as some mythical figure that Fox News tells you to worry about. Liberals, Obama syncophants, whatever. Just a bunch of drivel that tells me that you don't think for yourself. That's sad actually. Rick is a good dude. He's been around the block a few times. He's pretty liberal in his views, and thank God for that. It's a balance, and it's needed. Somebody needs to take care of the likes of you, because you clearly can't think for yourself.

This crap, and politics in general, is like Newton's 3rd law...for every dem/rep article there's always an opposite reaction/article out there. I doubt Rick even reads 1/3 of the stuff (or any of the stuff) he cut/pastes. I get the impression that Rick finds this stuff and thinks, "hmmm, this would be some good chit to throw into the cbid fan." Then he sits back and puts another layer of tin foil on his hat.

Now that I've got that out of the way, I believe Rick is a good person, and more than anything loves his family. He just likes to treat us (his cbid family) like readheaded stepchildren. I can't stand the crap he posts 98.2% of the time, but I'd probably enjoy spending a brief moment smoking a cigar with him...I'd bring my own coffee, of course. 😰

I agree. I would love to have a cigar with Rick sometime.

^ Ha ha...I guess you haven't been around here long enough to see Rick for the propagandist he is, either that or you are one of the mindless Obama sychophants.

When I started on cbid, Rick sent out a welcome package to all newbies. I remember when mine showed up in the mail. Lots of sticks that I had never tried.

You may not have intended it, but this list illustrates why Obama is the worst president in modern history. First, who would compile these as serious accomplishments? Most of them are general statements of what the president has intended to do. Even though it was 244, it only took a few minutes to scan through because they were so repetitive in terms of impact. Overall, they're hardly "accomplishments". Second, who would repeat these? The man has had one serious "accomplishment" if you want to call the healthcare monstrosity an "accomplishment". Other than that, this is hardly the stuff of presidential lore. It's mainly low-level, low-impact executive orders or bland resolutions or intentions. This is like saying George Washington should be known for signing a resolution acknowledging the contributions of revolutionary war soldiers. Wow, that's why he was a great president!
