During Obama's first 100 days in office, has published a series PolitiFact.com, "The Obameter Obama promises to track campaigns." The site compiles 514 Obama promises made during the campaign and following your progress every day in their meeting. PolitiFact gives each a promise to the following results: He remained, transaction, Broken, stuck in work, no action, and Yes We Can (just kidding the last). They also identify the "Top 25 "most important promises.
This seems to be a fair, impartial evaluation Obama one we can all agree. Indeed, PolitiFact after 96 days, housed the St. Petersburg Times, the Pulitzer Prize-winning Web site, lists only 5% of Obama that the promises were kept, 12% as in the works, and 79% the number of shares.
Interestingly, however, that to PolitiFact, the baseline for success is to know if Obama keeps his promises. The assumption is that their promises should be preserved. As Obama said, "Not only can you listen Rush Limbaugh and do things. "
A better way to follow Obama's performance threats can be classified as first aid, promising in three categories: Harmful, safe and decent. With this system, I can determine that 15 of the 25 or 60%, Obama promises top 25 are harmful, 24% are benign, and 16% are worthy. off a great start!
Second, let's give Obama a point for every promise Worthy has not abandoned a year and a half for everyone who is affected, stagnant, or in the works, and 0 points for all those who have broken or not act. Give 0 points for every promise harmful, regardless at what stage you unless you give us a year and a half of the promise of all pests have been broken, because it could have been to appease his base during the campaign (But still lose credit to scare us.) Promises are not harmless get points.
And now, the first 25 PolitiFact Obama promises deconstructed and obtained for me:
1. Create a fund to prevent foreclosure for homeowners, or "For 10 billion in Niagara Falls. "Harmful / saved: 0.
2. Create a tax credit of $ 500 for workers. If had $ 500,000, could have caught my interest. Harmless / transaction: 0.
3. Repeal tax cuts Bush revenues higher income, or, "Reducing incentives to work and participate in entrepreneurship, increase and not related to the exploitation tax loophole. "Harmful / current: 0.
4. Create a National Health Insurance Exchange. M allergic to certain election promises that many capital letters. Harmful / no action: 0.
5. Children need to have coverage Medicare, or "make health insurance costs and provide coverage for the government to intervene and begin rationing. "Harmful / no action: 0.
6. Invest in electronic health information, or, "Do what hospitals and clinics are already doing, but less efficient and more profitable. "Harmful / current: 0.
7. Fully fund the administration of veterans. Wow, this has nothing to do with friction on the face of Bush on rats found in VA a few years ago, right? Worth / No Action: 0.
8. Brigades fighting in Iraq Loosen or, "We'll see if we lose the war, as we cross the finish line. "Harmful / current: 0.
9. Send two additional brigades to Afghanistan. Worth / Off: 1.
10. End of use of torture. First, we do not torture. Thus, the promise of Obama is to stop terrorists from splashing water. Harmful / Current: 0.
11. Close the detention center at Guantanamo Bay. This has never actually met, because there no other healthy choice for what to do with inmates who would be acceptable to anyone, but the harmful effects of the ACLU. / In the works (supposedly): 0.
12. Telephone tapping without a court order is final or, "Pull the eardrum us collectively." Harmful / No Action: 0.
13. Verifiable reductions in emissions of research in nuclear arsenals. Any State which is not confidence shall not, by definition, deal with us to reduce inventory and stop the actions to develop nuclear weapons. Harmful / no action: 0.
14. Centralize Ethics and Lobbying Information for Voters. Something like the database created to document the contributions made by supporters of Obama, to ensure that foreign nationals to donate, oh no, wait … harmless / No Action: 0.
15. Require greater disclosure and a waiting period for the affected. Devotes a budget of only a small fraction of public expenditure. harmless / no action: 0.
16. Stricter rules against the revolving door lobbyists and former officials. Worthy / Roto 0.
17. Securing the borders. Obama supports "additional personnel, infrastructure and technology at the border and at our ports of entry. "It's too vague to mean anything one way or another. harmless / current: 0.
18. Provide access to citizenship for undocumented immigrants. Bonito, but it is not anywhere near the 25 major problems facing us. harmless / no action: 0.
19. Mandatory Minimum Sentences reform. A true liberal would have the courage to talk to decriminalize drug use, as some libertarian Republicans. Worth / No Action: 0.
20. Secure nuclear material in four years. See "The reduction in inventories." Any country that does meet not a threat. Harmless / no action: 0.
21. Strengthen antitrust or "Stop the next Microsoft before flooding the market low-cost technological advances that make people's lives better. "Harmful / no action: 0.

Reduce oil consumption by 35 percent in 2030, or "caveman chic. Anime 24. " Harmful / no action: 0.
25. Creation of cap and trade with interim targets to reduce global warming global or "Making Al Gore at 80% of its fleet of SUVs when your grandchildren are old enough to drive. "Harmful / current: 0.
Total score: 1 point on a maximum of 25, or 4%. Congratulations Obama! I think that is what is known in high school as an "F", less missed. "
Obama did not even a half-point break any of his promises harmful. And here, on my system, which could have marked a reduction of 30% only by abandoning all their bad ideas.
