Obviously he inherited a bad situation, I'm not denying that. But it is very unfortunate how little he got done and how that little bit all turned out to be a failure.iandi wrote:You must not have been alive 8 years ago when the entire american financial system was about to come crashing downQaxootiWaaxid wrote:Obama is a f-king failure. He got very little done and that little bit is gonna get overturned by GOP government. Shit like Obamacare is f-king useless. All our premiums and payments skyrocketed in November just before the election. We're barely keeping up with expensive payments for shit care. Fuck Obamacare bullshit.
He even admitted his own Syria intervention was a failure during the press conference today, if you were watching.
You wanna talk about Obama's legacy? In 8 years Democrats have lost:
900 State seats
14 Governorships
13 Seats in the Senate
69 Seats in the House
He's a f-king qasaaro of the highest order.
Cyber Security - Obama failed
Afghanistan - Obama failed
Libya - Obama failed
Obamacare - Obama failed
Syria - Obama failed
He's a very calm and good speaker and I'll miss his demeanor. But policywise he's a complete failure.
You must not have been around 8 years ago when the US stock market was at 600
You must not have been around 8 years ago when the entire US automobile industry was about to go belly up
You must not have been there 8 years ago when the unemployment rate went into double figures
You must have been off the grid 8 years ago when people were unable to get health insurance if they had some kinda of condition
The middle east has been in turmoil before obama and they will continue to be in turmoil for the foreseeable future and to base obama's success as a president on the madness which obtains there is in itself.............madness.
By any measure this was a successful president and the face that more than half the country view him favourably is proof of that....but don't take my word for it....let's see how the next four years stacks up.
For example, Obama touts strong job growth. The truth though is that the only jobs that are really growing are low-pay service jobs with no or poor benefits. This is not equal to a real, well-paying career position. Tens of millions in America are living in a very precarious position.
Obamacare is an utter failure of a law that is only meant to serve the insurance industry (which donate nicely to Hillary et al), not the average American. We are paying ridiculous monthly premiums for care that we can never really use because the copays and other shit is obscene.
This election was a referendum on Obama's rule for the last 8 years, since Hillary would have been more of the same. Even with the entire media, political and hollywood establishment behind her, $1.2 billion in super PAC campaign contributions, 40 years in politics at every level (First Lady of Arkansas, First Lady of the United States, US Senator from New York, US Secretary of State) and so much more...she still lost to Donald f-king Trump.
If Obama's domestic rule with regards to jobs and healthcare were worth anything to the American voter, Hillary would have won.
