When the "exit tax" bill was defeated (a tax on all assets, including unrealized gains, of US citizens and residents who leave the US), he was instrumental in burying it in a veterans benefits bill where it was passed.
He also got a million bucks inserted in a bill for the hospital where his wife worked, and the hospital gave her a raise of something close to $200,000/yr on a salary that was already in 6 figures (@$120,000, IIRC).
He voted "present" on almost all bills that came to a vote in the Senate while he was there -- when he was there (one of the worst attendance records in the Senate). He has actually never produced so much as a tomato. He did not write "his" books -- they were ghostwritten.Has obama done anything in his career other than vote for partial birth abortion?
Yes, he has: www.obamasresume.com

FYI: Partial birth abortion has been outlawed in this nation since 2003. Pretending that Obama voted to allow living children to die is both false and illegal, had Obama or any doctor done so. http://politifact.com/truth-o-meter/stat鈥?/a>

He beat john mccain for President. How'd you miss that one?Has obama done anything in his career other than vote for partial birth abortion?
His name was on some pork spending bills from last year.
He was a "community organizer" .Whatever the hell that is.Has obama done anything in his career other than vote for partial birth abortion?
Yes. He beat the twin towers of personal destruction, Bill and Hillary Clinton.
nope
Well, he did pass the biggest gov't spending/stimulus bill in US History.
Yes. What have you done?
yeah. Obama has done cocaine in high school.
Yes. He voted for infanticide for falled abortions.
Please. There was no bill to vote for partial birth abortion. Why don't you look at the bill and see why he voted against a bill banning it. It was already illegal in IL and he did not like provisions that were in it. Common practice in the senate. You vote no on a bill and hope it fails so it can be rewritten to your liking.
he voted present on most stuff, plus pass the most expensive bill in the history of america and then lied and said there were no earmarks. does that count?
His most recent achievement: Spending more $$$ than any other sole in our planet's history. Only took him 31 days to do that.
He voted against that bill in the Illinois legislature because he believed that adequate protections were already provided in existing laws. Basically, that bill was trying to open the door to overturning Roe v. Wade.
He beat the SNOT out of John McCain and the Republicans.
"why not ronald mcdonald for pres?"
Why not, indeed. You ran Palin for VP, McDonald would have been a better choice.
No, this is not true. If you don't know his accomplishments go to wikipedia %26amp; find the legislation section %26amp; come back later you will be amazed %26amp; smarted than 11% of the country.
Harvard Law Degree. Election to the Illinois legislature, Election to the Senate, Election to the presidency. Trying to work with an intractable Republican party to get the people's business done. Seems like a pretty respectable career to me. The 63,000,000 who voted for him were impressed. His 60% approval rating tells us people who did not vote for him are impressed too.
He's destroyed the U.S. economy. Does that count?
He wrote two books that became best sellers.
Stephen King wrote more best selling books, I don't know why he wasn't on the ballot.
I can't think of anything. People say he speaks very well. Personally, I can't stand the sight of him or his voice. Strange,too, I don't know why-I could not stand the sound of his voice...I wish him and his family well,though.
Obama is President because he ran on the platform of hope and change.
McCain ran on the idea that someone could change his meds while he was on the campaign trail--and picked Palin as his wet nurse. :0)
