I know it's hard to read in this format, so here ya go:
1. CBO (Congressional Budget Office) now says the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) will cost TWICE what was predicted - $2TRILLION of OUR tax dollars. It also will kill a MILLION U.S. obs, cut Medicare by $500BILLION, de-fund mammograms & breast cancer screenings for MILLIONS of women in need (see your #3), and raise 18 taxes on the middle class.
2. Obama didn't end the war in Iraq. Bush did. Under the Status of Forces Agreement he made with Iraqi gov't in 2008. Obama asked for our troops to stay there longer. They said no. More than TWICE as many troops have died in Afghanistan in Obama's 3 years than in Bush's 8. Obama just made an agreement to keep our troops there 10 MORE YEARS.
3. Women already have access to free preventative health care if they need it (except the millions of women who don't have access under O-care ^ #1).
4. 2 years after signing LLFPA, women on Obama's staff make 18% LESS than men. 92.3% of the jobs lost under Obama were held by women. (Bureau of Labor Statistics)
5. Obama has spent $34BILLION of OUR tax dollars on creating green jobs... overseas. He vetoed the Keystone Pipeline that would have created tens of thousands of U.S. jobs (or more) and provided greener oil transport. He has given TENS OF BILLIONS of OUR dollars to at least 12 companies that promised to create green jobs and cleaner energy, but closed shop, laid off workers, and filed bankruptcy instead; all before producing anything.
6. College tuition has increased almost 500% in 25 years. Why are we blaming banks, not schools, for (voluntarily acquired) crippling student loan debt? For perspective, overall inflation for that time period is only 100%...
7. Obama hand-picked for his jobs czar Jeffrey Immelt, CEO of GE, who has paid $0 in taxes the last few years, despite record profits, AND has sent TENS OF THOUSANDS of U.S. jobs overseas. Wall Street has given Obama more $ than all GOP candidates combined. If the 1% were taxed 100% of their net worth, it would only run this country for a few days. Obama's policies hurt the poor and middle class...not millionaires and billionaires.
8. Unemployment was 7.8% when Obama took office. Since then, it has stayed between 8% and 10%, despite a TRILLION DOLLARS spent on jobs stimulus packages that he said would keep unemployment under 8%. Labor force participation is at its lowest level since 1981. Actual unemployment is around 15%, not 8%. Jobs lost vs. jobs "created" under Obama = net LOSS, not gain. You can't turn the Titanic around in a day, but a good captain can at least get it pointed in the right direction in 3 years. Obama hasn't, and we're sinking fast.
Your vote for him was based on promises he hasn't kept. He has added $4Billion to our debt EVERY DAY he has been in office We're paying record gas prices during record unemployment. As a fellow American, I strongly urge you to reconsider your vote.
Amazing, how easy it is to do a little research before posting stuff on the internet...
