Does Barack Obama have any legislative accomplishments?

No. He did try to cosponsor a bill on earmarks, but that doesn't count since he accidentally put his name down as "Osama" (it happens).

Rating: 1.8/5 (9 votes cast)

Picky, Picky, Picky.

Don't we already have too many useless, freedom impinging laws?

"Hi, I'm Barack Obama. Vote for me and I promise not to do jack (but I can't speak for Congress)."

And speaking of legislative accomplishments, check out some future plans for the Motherland.

If you vote for Obama, you will get cake!

Hey, he racked up the most liberal voting record in a Democrat majority senate. He beat out the likes of Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, and Barbara Boxer - that takes some doing!

I'm not gonna berate the Almond Barocka until Hillary Klinton is on her knees crying barockadile tears into the Democrat piss bucket. It ain't over until the Fat Lady Hillary sings and we hear the violins. Until then, he's king.

I once heard that he's a race of some type. Does that count? It certainly seems to when applying for a job...

That's it! He doesn't need to run for President; he can just apply for the job! What, with affirmative action & the last Black president being Bill Clinton's sorry ass 8 years ago, Obambi ought to be a shoo-in!

#6 - Posted by: AlanABQ on February 26, 2008 05:09 PM

So, Barack shouldn't run for President, he should just show up at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue and fill out the "I wanna be president" form? That's like saying Hillary would do better if she skipped the debate. On second thought, she probably would!!

Please, don't tell Hillary that white, male America has turned against her like an attack of killer bees. Sting the bitch! Sting the bitch! Sting the bitch...

Wasn't he in that movie last year - Borack: Cultural Hopings of Socialism for Make Change Glorious People's Republic of America. That scene where he dropped his nutsack on Musharaf still gives me nightmares.

"He did try to cosponsor a bill on earmarks"
speaking of ears!

#12 - Posted by: katablog on February 26, 2008 08:50 PM

jimmy carter had a big ... smile and not much else. o'bummer has big ears, and, apparently, not much else. jimmy was the worst president of the 20th (and maybe any century).

There might be a pattern here, and then again, there might not.

On a completely different and somewhat early note... (this is for SarahK) David Archuletta almost made me respect John Lennon with his rendition of "Imagine." It was incredible...

let us be fair, Name Hillary Clinton's achievements.
She failed at Healthcare in 1993/94.
What has she done?

#15 - Posted by: Marvin on February 26, 2008 10:53 PM

Gave birth to Chelsea ?
Read a newspaper every day for 40 years ?
Bill Clinton's wife ?
First (and not Bill's last) Lady ?

#16 - Posted by: Jimmy on February 26, 2008 11:06 PM

It's not about his accomplishments, it's about the Man keeping him down.

And Jimmy, Hillary's got 35 years experience being a shrill, conniving harpy. She's perfect for the job of Bill Clinton's wife, IMAO.

I wish them a an excruciatingly long life together.

In the 25+years I've been a voter I have yet to see a Democratic contender for POTUS that hasn't promised everyone everything, except Joe Lieberman. Humphrey, McGovern, Carter, Kerry, Hart, Clinton, Gore and now the twins Boo and Hoo it's all the same.

They spend all of their time trashing the country, the economy, the military, and the people and have NO plans on how to fix the crisis' they imagine. Liberalism secretly means pessimistic opportunist.

BTW, way off topic but, anyone else listen to Glen Beck on the radio last night. He pointed out that we don't need to protect the environment, it's doing a real good job protecting itself and committing mass murder on top of it. (Hurricans, tidal waves, flood, tornados, lightening, think about it.)

Say What, Barrack?
By Paul R. Hollrah
Tuning in to C-Span recently, I found myself listening to a speech
by Senator Barrack Hussein Obama, Jr. He was standing in the
pulpit of a black church in Selma, Alabama, and as I studied the
body language of the dozen or so black ministers standing behind
the senator, I couldn't help but be reminded of the little
head-bobbing dolls that people used to place in the rear windows
of their 1957 Chevrolets. If their reactions are any indication,
the new "Schlickmeister" of the Democrat Party is actually a
pretty accomplished public speaker.

However, as he spoke, I found my (what is he saying) alarm going off, repeatedly.
But I couldn't quite figure out why until I actually read excerpts
of his speech several days later. Here's part of what he said:
"...something happened back here in Selma, Alabama. Something
happened in Birmingham that sent out what Bobby Kennedy called,
"ripples of hope all around the world." Something happened when a
bunch of women decided they were going to walk instead of ride the
bus after a long day of doing somebody else's laundry, looking
after somebody else's children.

"When (black) men who had PhD's decided 'that's enough' and 'we're
going to stand up for our dignity,' that sent a shout across
oceans so that my grandfather began to imagine something different
for his son. His son, who grew up herding goats in a small village
in Africa could suddenly set his sights a little higher and
believe that maybe a black man in this world had a chance.

"So the Kennedy's decided we're going to do an airlift. We're
going to go to Africa and start bringing young Africans over to
this country and give them scholarships to study so they can learn
what a wonderful country America is.

"This young man named Barack Obama got one of those tickets and
came over to this country. He met this woman whose great
great-great-great- grandfather had owned slaves; but she had a
good idea there was some craziness going on because they looked at
each other and they decided that we know that, (in) the world as
it has been, it might not be possible for us to get together and
have a child. There was something stirring across the country
because of what happened in Selma, Alabama, because some folks are
willing to march across a bridge. So they got together and Barack
Obama Jr. Was born. So don't tell me I don't have a claim on
Selma, Alabama. Don't tell me I'm not coming home to Selma,
Alabama."

Okay, so what's wrong with that? It all sounds good. But is it?

Obama told his audience that, because some folks had the courage
to "march across a bridge" in Selma, Alabama, his mother, a white
woman from Kansas, and his father, a black Muslim from Africa,
took heart. It gave them the courage to get married and have a
child. The problem with that characterization is that Barrack
Obama, Jr., was born on August 4, 1961, while the first of three
marches across that bridge in Selma didn't occur until March 7,
1965, at least five years after Obama's parents met.

Obama went on to tell his audience that the Kennedys, Jack and
Bobby, decided to do an airlift. They would bring some young
Africans over so that they could be educated and learn all about
America. His grandfather heard that call and sent his son, Barrack
Obama, Sr., to America.

The problem with that scenario is that, having been born in August
1961, the future senator was not conceived until sometime in
November 1960. So if this African grandfather heard words that
''sent a shout across oceans,'' inspiring him to send his
goat-herder son to America, it was not a Democrat Jack Kennedy he
heard, nor his brother Bobby, it was a Republican President,
Dwight D. Eisenhower.
Obama's speech is reminiscent of Al Gore's claim of having
invented the Internet, Hillary Clinton's claim of having been
named after the first man to climb Mt. Everest, even though she
was born five years and seven months before Sir Edmund climbed the
mountain, and John Kerry's imaginary trip to Cambodia.

As one of my black friends, Eddie Huff, has said, "We need to ask
some very serious questions of the senator from Illinois. It's not
enough to be black, it's not enough to be articulate, and it's not
enough to be eloquent and a media darling. The only question will
be how deaf an ear, or how blind an eye, will people turn in order
to turn a frog into a prince."

Thank you sir or madam. That was again just marvelous. Sometimes long is essential.

Good job.

#20 - Posted by: seanmahair on February 27, 2008 10:30 AM

I am pretty sure from everything I have heard he has co sponsored and written legislation that gives everyone hope for change.
