Did you not notice ISIS ran wild on his watch (they were the JV team in his mind).
Those are the facts.....you just don't like them. Doesn't make me wrong.

There are no Facts above - only opinion. You want to quote facts - try linking to unbiased sources - like Wikipedia.

The consulate in Libya - of course that was a huge screw up. Remember again - he inherited two active wars and several collapsed countries.


Given where he started, he did pretty well, certainly better than Trump has done so far. He actually got something innovative passed - of course it failed ultimately because no one in the HC industry wants Regulation and Trump doesn't want regulation in any industry.


Islamic fundamentalism ran wild on Bush's watch. Were we supposed to stay fully deployed in Iraq for Obama's entire presidency ? The rise of IS in Iraq is on him but who was there before IS - Al Queda in Iraq -same Sunnis. As for Syria - that is an environmental factor.


Taking selected Obama failures (or not) over 8 years doesn't make him a bad President. It only makes you biased.

LOL, yes I know and I'm glad she wasn't. As for Obama, I was happy he was gone and we were not seeing much of him but now he's at it again. It's all about riling people up obviously.
I guess only Trump can rile up his supporters, how dare Obama try to rile of the base of his party,

The reason all of that was lost is overwhelmingly the fault of Obama, Pelosi and Reid.

They didn't hold the mid terms at the same time as the general election. Dems didn't get out and vote in the mid terms. The GOP did. That wasn't Obama's fault.

Former President Obama always heads for colleges to make a speech when he wants to hoodwink people on the economy and his role in it. Why? Because college students don't have full time jobs, put food on the table for a family, have a mortgage, pay utility bills, have stocks or 401(k)s so they believe everything he says.

Bingo! And they don't yet pay TAXES either. They are taught, and think that everything is FREE, Communism is good, and Capitalism is bad, and "unfair".

When are we going to see the great and wonderful health care program that Trump had ready to roll?

tRump: holds weekly "worship me!" rallies at taxpayer expense, where he goes on endlessly about how his failings and crimes aren't his fault.

Trumplings: "More! Give us more!"

Obama: holds a single rally to get out the vote.

Trumplings: "That's undignified!"

So amusing.

That’s why you think he goes to colleges and universities, huh?
