Obama's Legacy In Two Pictures

[JGalt]

Did people really believe that "hope" and "change" were a solid foundation, strategy and philosophy for an American leader?

The sort of retards who follow cults into Guyana and commit mass suicide. The bottom rung. Vapid drones.

A little history side note: The "Reverend" Jim Jones was a liberal who actually rented his flock out to Democratic rallies and protests in San Francisco.

 

[Marion Morrison]

So many dramatics from you rubes who, ultimately, have only one real fault you can pin on Obama. That the recovery from the previous Republican catastrophe was "too slow."

What "recovery"? Haven't you been keeping up with the stock market and jobs reports recently?

Oh, that's right: "Wall Street is da debbil".

Yeah I kept up for the 12,000 points it gained under Obama. When did you start caring about stocks?

I care about the economic health and well-being of my country. And she's been pretty sickly the last 8 years.

More than that. W. did bad for the country's economy, too.

16 years since the economy has been headed in any kind of a right direction.

Yeah, she was recovering from a Republican orchestrated heart attack.

He definitely should have done better, but he handed kennedy and the democrooks the check book in order to keep them from interfering anymore than they did on the war. The GOP had the momentum to unfuck a lot of regressive bullshit but they "compromised" with wrong and we ended up with the shit end of the stick.

“Suffering” under Obama’s 2-terms?

When Obama took office, the Dow was 6,626. When Obama left office, iit was 19,875. Has this caused your suffering?

We had 82 straight months of private sector job growth - the longest streak in the history of the United States. Has this caused your suffering?

Especially considering where the economy was when he took over, an amazing 11.3 million new jobs were created under President Obama (far more than President Bush). Has this caused your suffering?

The deficit as a percentage of the GDP has gone from 9.8% to 3.2%. Has this caused your suffering?

The deficit itself was cut by $800 Billion Dollars. Has this caused your suffering?

Obama preserved the middle class tax cuts. Has this caused your suffering?

Yet one more in an endless stream of one-line sound bytes. Would you care to tell me how during the last 8 years, the GOP was responsible for adopting an anti-business, anti-growth environment, and putting oppressive governmental regulations on the backs on businesses and industries in this country?

I'd also like to know how it was that Obama supposedly created so many public-sector jobs, as you leftists would like everyone to believe. There was his big "Stimulus Package" that was supposed to create all those jobs, but that turned out to be no more than a bailout for the labor unions. Of course, much of it went into creating a couple dozen "Green Energy" companies, but they quickly went bankrupt and absquatulated with the taxpayer's money.

Then I'd like for you to explain how it was that his one and only accomplishment during 8 years, Obamacare, caused thousands of healthcare workers to lose their jobs, small clinics to shut down, and working people's premiums to rise exponentially, while at the same time causing many employers to cut back their employee's hours?

I'm all ears.

I can't explain the things in you're first 2 paragraphs, because they didn't happen. Now Obamacare was passed because the healthcare system was broken. The GOP seems to be confirming that today as there is zero talk about returning the healthcare system to the way it was.

Being unaware of or unable to explain a historical even doesn't mean "It didn't happen". The healthcare system was not "broken" and was operating just fine as it was under free enterprise. Just because someone wasn't financially-able to afford it doesn't mean they have the right to it because as anyone can tell you, healthcare is not a "right".

Voting is a right. Owning firearms is a right. Expressing one's opinion is a right, as is worshiping the God of their choice or none at all.

But there is nothing in the United States Constitution which says "Healthcare is a right". Nor does it say "You have the right to a free education" or "You have the right to a taxpayer-funded abortion".

Geez, do I have to learn you people everything?

 

[tycho1572]

I'd post pics of obamas legacy if they weren't so morbid.

I can only hope Obama and Hillary are eventually held responsible for what they've done.

 

[Rustic]

I live in a small rural town in Wisconsin, a state which was previously blue but overwhelmingly voted for Donald Trump in 2016. On the eastern part of town right outside the city limits is a farm with a large barn, right next to the highway.

The owner of the farm who is obviously a Democrat, put this on his barn in 2012...

Of course by 2017, it looked more like this...

So now let's have some fun with this. Remember kids, Photoshop is your friend.

You get the idea.

Then surely, the GOP will return it to how it was. They voted to do that 61 times after all. Do you think they will a 62nd, since the old way was magical and fantastic?
