A well-intentioned president who, contrary to what the disaffected right-wing would have us believe, has actually made many accomplishments despite the craptacular state of affairs he inherited from his predecessor.
A president who (perhaps unjustifiably) has made sincere efforts at bipartisanship despite the unrelenting barrage of lies and bullshit from the right-wing attack machine who's only goal is to tear down his presidency at all costs, and the outright refusal of congressional republiturds to consider any of his ideas, even if said ideas originally garnered bipartisan support.

Notable accomplishments include:
Passage of the controversial stimulus act, which despite it's flaws, helped to curb job loss, improved our infrastructure, and saved many state governments from going bankrupt. Most economists believe we would be worse off without it.
Helped turn the economy around (the Dow was only in the 6000s when Obama took office)
Ordered the strike that killed Bin Laden, and implemented the drone strike policy that killed Bin Ladin's number two man and sent Al Qaeda running.
Passed health care reform, something many presidents have tried to do and failed. While it could have done more to bring down costs and less to appease the insurance industry, it was the best we could get in today's political climate, and it does bring America closer to the developed world in terms of health care.
And to the losers who are messing up the votes on the Obama defs, kindly fuck off and get a life.
To everyone else: don't believe any of the vote totals on these pages. They are being hacked! Yesterday, Obama-hating def 6189985 written by Star Destroyer 2 had 15 thumbs down and 0 up. Today (as of this writing) it magically has 60 thumbs up!! Likewise, def 6183602 written by coffee_lover had 16 thumbs up and 0 down, until today. Now it's 16 up and 47 down. I smell a Kochroach.

Get the obama mug.Slanderous name referencing supporters of Barack Obama. Originating from republican supporters, who believe that the McCain/Palin campaign failed due to brainless voters who got caught up in media buzz of Americas first black presidential candidate. These people are most commonly beleived to be politically inactive and otherwise uninformed.
This view though, overlooks the fact that the republican idea that social problems work themselves out through social darwinism. This really translates to fact that republicans do as little as possible to interfere with the state of the country while using political power to persue personal interests. Which is the real reason for the Obama voting frenzy. Obama won due to Americas fear of another inactive and incompetent president, such as the Bush administration.

Guy1: "I can't believe all the support the democrats have from obama zombies. I remain convinced he won simply because he's black."
Guy2: "Obama zombies? Man, everything you said was retarded. He didn't win because he's black, he won because Bush was such a blundering idiot that no one associated to him will ever have a sucessful political carreer"
