I got to hand it to you, it really takes a significant mix of ignorance and gaps in intelligence to come up with this stuff.
Really? George W Bush didn't lowered the bar? It's Obama?
And which party is lowering the bar? Which party is having wet dreams about Trump?
So let me get this straight, you're asking the liberals to explain lowering the bar?? It should be the conservatives who have to explain themselves. This is like the homeless man at a party asking everyone else to explain why their hygiene is bad.
The scary thing is, this may actually be your most "intelligent" post in a while. At least you're not making crazy predictions like Hillary dropping out of the race because Chelsea is having a baby, or something strange like that.

This is what I don't get. Obama is by no means perfect but Trump is just plain not going to work. I'd argue the low bar was set by Nixon in 1972, Ford and Carter really didn't do much better. Reagan was good, Clinton was good but virtually every president after JFK had their fumbles, some more than others...
No, conservative dudes, blame yourselves for offering up McCain and Romney as your best candidates. I still can't figure out how Romney lost under the worst possible circumstances for Obama. And don't even say those two weren't the best you had then, because Romney (2008) and Santorum (2012) were the runner ups.
They call Trump a clown but we have Obama now who's a sideshow circus geek. The bar can't be lowered any further.
And yet Obama's approval rating - even in these highly polarized times - is only a little less than Ronald Reagan's was at this point in his presidency - and a whole lot higher than GW's was at this point.
Obama has the highest approval rating of any leader in DC at the moment - higher than the Senate leaders, higher than the House leaders, higher than nearly any Senator or Congressman/woman actually - and since Presidents generally get a bounce leaving office, he's likely to go even higher in the next year or so.
Obama is doing JUST FINE - still kicking GOP butt even though he's supposed to be a "lame duck" - and will likely end his Presidency with his approval-rating "above water". That's something the last GOP President certainly didn't do.
Barack Obama is a failure. Under Obama, median household income has fallen by about $2,500, while a record 94 million people are now out of the work force.
And while Democrats and Obama love to point to a 5.1% UE rate, Bernie Sanders says that is a deliberate misrepresentation about how just how bad the Obama economy really is.
“The jobs report just came out the other day, as it does every month, and it tells us that ‘official’ unemployment is 5.1%,” Sanders said in New Hampshire. “But there is another government statistic which often doesn’t get a lot of media attention. And that statistic includes those people who are unemployed, who are underemployed, or have given up looking for work entirely.”
Ignorance is bliss to these conservatives. Who's watch did 9/11 happen? It wasn't a democrat.
Who was the clown who rushed to war with Iraq? Which president had a difficult time pronouncing words? Come on, let's use some common sense! We all know who LOWERED the bar....

As long as Democrats keep pluggling to take more of my money I won't hear anything else they have to say.
