Well yeah I guess he has been able to push through some of his policies. Reduced deficit, out of the middle east (almost), Iran brought to the negotiation tables about their nuclear weapons without military action, and at last a few steps closer to joining the rest of the world with a modern health care system where people aren't dying because they can't afford to live.
But to say that the GOP hasn't opposed him is completely inaccurate. " It reveals some of my reporting on the Republican plot to obstruct President Obama before he even took office, including secret meetings led by House GOP whip Eric Cantor (in December 2008) and Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell (in early January 2009) in which they laid out their daring (though cynical and political) no-honeymoon strategy of all-out resistance to a popular President-elect during an economic emergency. âIf he was for it,â former Ohio Senator George Voinovich explained, âwe had to be against it.â The excerpt includes a special bonus nugget of Mitt Romney dissing the Tea Party." It was an open and public policy decision by the GOP. They haven't hidden it, or shied away from using the "tactic" . The specific incident that I remember which impacted world markets was when they refused to raise the debt ceiling and caused thousands of Americans to lose their jobs, world markets to react negatively, and created a crisis that was felt around the world as markets began to speculate on the outcome. With all this, though, the democrats have to be one of the most incompetent parties regarding PR and getting people out to vote. For all their multiple failures and policies that are aimed at gutting the middle and lower class, the GOP will probably sweep the november elections.
