So, which of Obama's many campaign promises will he break first?

1) I will not raise taxes on anyone but the wealthy

2) I will bring the troops home from Iraq within 18 months of my inauguration

3) I will not take legally-owned guns from the hands of law-abiding citizens

4) I will not interfere with the Second Amendment to the Constitution

5) I will not interfere with the right of the people of the United States to determine that marriage is only valid between one man and one woman.

6) I will unify this country as never before

7) I will work with both sides of the political spectrum to govern in a bi-partisan fashion

8) I will solve the financial mess left by my predecessors

9) other lies as appropriate may be inserted here

Update:

Funny, but I never said anything about Obama's race. So why do you automatically assume I think he's lying because he's black?

No, he's lying because he's a Democrat.

    The election NEVER should have been about "race" in the first place. I know people who voted for him JUST BECAUSE of the color of his skin. GROW UP, PEOPLE! I am so sick of hearing, "My people have suffered...", etc. Did YOU suffer? Were YOU personally persecuted? I can not change what happened here before, nor will I jump on the bandwagon of blaming everyone else for MY decisions! Give me a break!

    This man made it into office because so many uninformed voters were trying to make a statement. God created ONE race... THE HUMAN race... the color of his skin should be of no consequence! Now the entire country will have to deal with the consequences of this "race" fueled election.

    He will not be able to accomplish number 8 because he is choosing the same people as the Clinton campaign who got us into this mess!

    Of the sixteen broken delivers of the 503 delivers tracked by using using Politifact (greater effective proper than a million/2 the ensures are observed as "indoors the works", this ability that they have no longer yet been fulfilled, yet in spite of the undeniable fact that must be), probably the finest important is the promise approximately greater effective stable policies for lobbyists. you may argue that the promise has technically been stored, yet Politifact does not purchase it, and that i do no longer the two. Getting around it by using using putting forward you have greater effective stable policies, yet oftentimes granting waivers, basically does not shrink it. effective, i'm a liberal, and no, i do no longer look after something a liberal does nor do I criticize something a conservative does. this is great to make judgments based on the information. the certainty that basically approximately if no longer all politicians make promoting campaign delivers that they later wreck does not justify the prepare for any of them. each now and back a broken promise IS justified. circumstances replace. Doubling investment for after college instructions may well be an celebration of this. the economic equipment grew to alter into in drastically worse shape whilst Obama got here approximately of artwork than whilst he began campaigning, so some subject concerns that should have made experience in November of 2009 would have been folly by using using 2009.

    Take your pick. He lied all the way through his campaign. He's a lawyer and a politician which means he's a professional liar.

    I'm betting #6. By his racist comments, he's made me into something I've never been before, a racist and I'm going to be one of the best racists ever thinks to Buttock Insane Obambutt.

    Source(s): The racist "KC Kay" is living proof that SOB Obambutt will never unite anyone, he's a goddamn racist prick.

    I hope he does not let us down but I am willing to give him a chance. Your question is not a valid one because it already assumes an answer. He couldn't do any worse than Bush. Have you read the Patriot Act?

    He may not complied with all his promises, but 8 promises out of 9 is not so bad.
