Obama
One accomplishment. We are still waiting to hear about one accomplishment. Hope, change, Bush blah blah blah. Let's hear about one accomplishment. This empty suit wants to be the President of the United States and we are yet to hear about one accomplishment.
He has terrorist friends. He has anti-American mentors. He has racist buddies. He was groomed in the sleaziest of Chicago politics. He has corrupt friends. He has no accomplishments. Someone, Please, list one accomplishment that qualifies him as POTUS.

5 sec on Google:
What has Barack Obama ever accomplished? "Some Say" that those who support Obama do so without a clue, and do so because of a "Svengali" effect his has on his "cult". I say that it is unfortunate, in this age of the Internet, that folks aren’t able to inform themselves, yet are able to post on a Political blog to have a say. I have done my research on Sen. Obama, and so have many of the others who support him. Maybe that is why he is attracting the most educated progressives in this nation; maybe it is because they do their homework, and do not rely on name recognition to determine whom to vote for. So to inform you, please note the following articles that sum up some of what Barack has “done” in his last 11 years in public office. Considering that Obama may be the Democratic Nominee, I believe that it is important for you, as a public voice, to be informed: His bold legislative work on the Illinois Death Penalty, and how he made a difference between life and death: http://www.icadp.org/page236.html http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/11/12/obama.death.pena... / His sponsorship of a bill that brought health insurance to 150,000, including 70,000 uninsured Children, again, during his time serving in the Illinois Statehouse: http://factcheck.barackobama.com/factcheck/2007/12/14/f... http://mediamatters.org/items/200712170003 His work on both the Immigration bill during his time in the US senate and his sponsorship of Ethics legislation (something he did both while in the State House, and in the Senate) that called for some of the most impactful reform regarding lobbyists since Watergate (as he likes to term it): http://factcheck.barackobama.com/factcheck/2007/12/14/f... http://feingold.senate.gov/~feingold/releases/07/01/200... Here’s a chart of many of his accomplishments during his 8 years in the Illinois state house - and his sponsored and co sponsored Bills in the U.S. Senate.......which include worthwhile bills dealing with a wide range of issues, from Election reform bills to the Cooperative Proliferation Detection reduction Act (w/t Sen. Lugar) to Internet database transparency Act. http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/271 / http://www.america.gov/st/washfile-english/2005/Novembe... http://obama.senate.gov/press/060908-senate_passes_c / http://thomas.loc.gov / (Select Obama’s name from the Senator drop down) This does not lists all of his accomplishments, nor does it deals with his accomplishments prior to entering elected office.

this took all of 2 minutes to find:
Total bills sponsored: 129 Total bills past committee: 9 Total bills enacted: 1 Total bills cosponsored: 545 Example bills: - Coburn-Obama Government Transparency Act of 2006 - The 2007 Government Ethics Bill - The Lugar-Obama Nuclear Non-proliferation and Conventional Weapons Threat Reduction Act From his Wiki: Consistent with his interests in conservation, Obama voted in favor of the Energy Policy Act of 2005. Obama took an active role in the Senate's drive for improved border security and immigration reform. In 2005, he cosponsored the "Secure America and Orderly Immigration Act" introduced by Republican John McCain of Arizona. He later added three amendments to the "Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act", which passed the Senate in May 2006, but failed to gain majority support in the House of Representatives. In September 2006, Obama supported a related bill, the Secure Fence Act, authorizing construction of fencing and other security improvements along the United States–Mexico border. President Bush signed the Secure Fence Act into law in October 2006, calling it "an important step toward immigration reform." Senate bill sponsors Tom Coburn (R-OK) and Obama discussing the Coburn–Obama Transparency Act Partnering with Republican Senators Richard Lugar of Indiana and then Tom Coburn of Oklahoma, Obama successfully introduced two initiatives bearing his name. "Lugar–Obama" expanded the Nunn–Lugar cooperative threat reduction concept to conventional weapons, including shoulder-fired missiles and anti-personnel mines. The "Coburn–Obama Transparency Act" authorized the establishment of USAspending.gov, a web search engine launched in December 2007 and run by the Office of Management and Budget. After Illinois residents complained of waste water contamination by a neighboring nuclear plant, Obama sponsored legislation requiring plant owners to notify state and local authorities of radioactive leaks. A compromise version of the bill was subsequently blocked by partisan disputes and later reintroduced. In December 2006, President Bush signed into law the "Democratic Republic of the Congo Relief, Security, and Democracy Promotion Act," marking the first federal legislation to be enacted with Obama as its primary sponsor. In January 2007, Obama worked with Democrat Russ Feingold of Wisconsin to eliminate gifts of travel on corporate jets by lobbyists to members of Congress and require disclosure of bundled campaign contributions under the "Honest Leadership and Open Government Act," which was signed into law in September 2007. He introduced S. 453, a bill to criminalize deceptive practices in federal elections, including fraudulent flyers and automated phone calls, as witnessed in the 2006 midterm elections. Obama's energy initiatives scored pluses and minuses with environmentalists, who welcomed his sponsorship with McCain of a climate change bill to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by two-thirds by 2050, but were skeptical of his support for a bill promoting liquefied coal production. Obama also introduced the "Iraq War De-Escalation Act of 2007," a bill to cap troop levels in Iraq, begin phased redeployment, and remove all combat brigades from Iraq before April 2008. Later in 2007, Obama sponsored an amendment to the Defense Authorization Act adding safeguards for personality disorder military discharges, and calling for an official review following reports that the procedure had been used inappropriately to reduce government costs. He sponsored the "Iran Sanctions Enabling Act" supporting divestment of state pension funds from Iran's oil and gas industry, and joined Republican Chuck Hagel of Nebraska in introducing legislation to reduce risks of nuclear terrorism. A provision from the Obama–Hagel bill was passed by Congress in December 2007 as an amendment to the State-Foreign Operations appropriations bill. Obama also sponsored a Senate amendment to the State Children's Health Insurance Program providing one year of job protection for family members caring for soldiers with combat-related injuries.

That's it? More than half your links didn't even work! He is for the death penalty. WOW. And I like the language of "include worthwhile bills dealing with a wide range of issues". You've been duped dude.
