While the left will inevitably do what they do best (attempt to replace history with propaganda), here is the
true legacy of the Barack Obama presidency...
1. The
non-stimulating stimulus. Obamaās $750,000,000-plus stimulus plan retarded economic recovery, but it did manage to shatter by gargantuan amounts the record for annual federal budget deficits and set us on the path of approximately doubling the national debt during Obamaās eight years.
2. The
unconstitutional takeover/reorganization of General Motors and Chrysler. Obama shredded over 200 years of settled bankruptcy law by placing unsecured creditors (UAW) ahead of the secured creditors (bondholders) of those companies.
3.
Seizing defeat from the jaws of victory. Obama abandoned the winning Bush/Petraeus surge strategy in Iraq, destabilizing that key country, pushing it closer to Iran as well as opening the door for Isis.
4. Allowing the
American military to fall into a state of disrepair. Well, at least he has made sure that the Navy is using expensive biofuels instead of cheap petroleum.
5.
Loss of American stature in the world. Jimmy Carter-like, he has sought to charm Americaās enemies (the Castros and the Iranian ayatollahs) while disrespecting old allies like the UK and newer allies like Poland. Through his indecisiveness with Syria, his bumbling interference in Libya, his capitulation to the Iranian mullahs, his passive acquiescence to Putinās takeover of Crimea, and his obvious belief that America owes the world apologies instead of strong leadership, he has greatly reduced respect for our country around the globe.
6.
Obamacare. ā
Nuff said.
7.
Dodd-Frank and its wicked spawn, the
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Ditto.
8.
Hostility to fossil fuels. Using the EPA and other regulatory agencies, he has done everything he could to cripple the domestic production of cheap, reliable fossil fuels and given subsidies to political cronies and others producing
green boondoggles.
9. Disrespect for our system of government. He has shown
contempt for our Constitution, for anyone who resists his power grabs, and for the American people, particularly the
middle class. He seems to have tried to reduce the United States of America to a banana republic by governing in the manner of a Latin American
caudillo.
10. Weak support for police and an
increase of racial tensions. You know itās bad when the executive director of the National Association of Police Organizations is so frustrated that
he publicly accuses the President of the United States of waging āwar on cops.ā
10 things you wonāt see the mainstream media talk about in the last 100 days of Obamaās presidency
You're a damn liar, and if you believe any, but the most ignorant and biddable fools, believe this crap, you are a damn fool too.
1. The Stimulus put people to work, and repaired a rusting and aging infrastructure, in states which understood kicking that can down the road is fiscally foolish.
2. Not saving GM would have created much greater unemployment, not only at GM but in every state wherein parts for the fleet were produced, where their cars are sold by salemen and in revenue created by advertisers. Once again a thoughtless remark by a partisan hack and known liar.
3. Obama ran on ending the war of choice which began six years before he took the oath of office. The cost of the war in blood and treasure is something only a neo con or fool appreciated. The number of flag covered coffins was enough to make any no sociopath sick.
4. Seems to me the US Military was able to protect the US for 8 years, and the effort by the Obama Administration to protect the planet from pollution is noble, not nefarious as we see today.
5. LOL, Bush didn't win any status with his limited coalition of the Willing, and Trump has all but alienated our allies, NATO and the PM's/Presidents/jleaders in Australia, Japan, S. Korea, Canada, S. and Central America and Mexico.
6. The PPACA benefited the aged and the needy as well as children. Trump, Ryan and McConnell tried to kill it, and a vast majority of our citizens opposed their callous disregard for this effort (which mostly failed).
7. More LOL, Want corruption? Don't regulate Wall Street and those banks/insurance companies too big to fail. BTW, D's supported changes, and support banks not too big to fail some leeway from the regulations needed to be imposed on the BofA Well Fargo, et al,
e
8. LOL, get your facts straight. He opposed a pipe line which moved Canadian tar oil to Texas and than on to the world market. Did it create hundreds of permanent jobs? Hell no. And Obama supported green and renewable energy efforts which is the smart thing to do.
9. A perfect description of Donald Trump, nothing in this bullet point comes close to what the current megalomanic s doing.
10. More Bullshit, Obama has no culpability for the racism which was long covert in America exploded overnight when he was nominated for President. Most racist were embarrassed to express their hate openly, when liberals invaded the south demanding civil rights and the racist Governors in Geogia and Alabama did nothing to stop LE from protecting the protesters. President Obama's election what was once covert became overt and overt on steroids from Trump's first stump speech.
