Non-leadership is not a good thing. This is not a plus and is such a disaster that we don't have to wait for history to be the judge- it is universally regarded as a disaster in our times.

His premature withdrawal has allowed it to become a terrorist haven. We still have troops in Japan, Germany and Korea, for Christ's sake. Pulling out of Iraq was an enormous strategic mistake, whether you agreed with the initial invasion or not.
We are back in Iraq, by the way, if you did not know.

And the last article I read on the subject said that they are now building new reactors. Excellent job letting them get the bomb. If World War 3 is going to start, it is going to because Israel has to do what our president did not have the guts to do, and stop Iran (just the same as they bombed reactors in Iraq and Syria).

It took him six years to generate a recovery comparable to the one Mr. Reagan built in a little over two, and Reagan had the worse economic conditions. This is because what Obama did was absolutely the wrong thing. The economy is recovering in spite of him. But don't go sweeping up any pots yet. Real unemployment is still much higher than at any time in the Bush administration- even at the end. The numbers look good because tens of millions of people have left the work force, and are no longer being counted. THS IS WHY DEMOCRATIC PARTY POWER IS AT AN ALL TIME HISTORIC LOW NOT SEEN SINCE THE CIVIL WAR. In a way this is good. There will be a very clear dichotomy now for future recessions of whether we want to go the Reagan route, or the Obama/Roosevelt route. It is good education for the Republic.

One of the most unpopular programs in history, as the rest of us have seen our premiums and deductibles skyrocket to pay for the dead beats. The damage that Obamacare has done is just beginning, and will help to cement the Republican majority future as doctors continue to leave the field since they can't make any money.
By the way, the "millions" that have received coverage is another smoke-and-mirrors numbers. For one thing, a lot of the expanded coverage is in name only, since it mostly comes from an expansion of Medicare, and doctors are increasingly not seeing Medicare patients. Secondly, a lot of the so called new enrollees are only replacing coverage that they had. Finally, it was revealed that white house has been cheating on the numbers by including people signing up for dental insurance at having new medical coverage.
All of which will be moot, buy the by, if the supreme court rules the law unconstitutional (it is up for review again, if you did not know). It only passed last time because the court narrowly saw the mandate as being a tax- ONE OF THE LARGEST TAX INCREASES IN HISTORY.
Good job Barry! On being the worst president that this country has ever seen.
