Obama -seriously- refused to allow any large scale ground force commitment to Syria despite tremendous pressure from bleaters like McCain and Graham and many others to do so.


He waffled and weaseled around on other measure (like arming ISIS), but our regular ground troops are just targets anywhere in that region. So good on him.

Clinton was creaming herself to cause the same kind of chaos in Syria she did in Lybia and voted for in Iraq.

Pinch yourself over and over to remind you that this horrible vile person will not have access to the levers of power.

Like Carter sending in helos [part way] to Tehran in 1980, the raid on OBL had considerable political risk for Obama.

That is a thing he did. It was good.

I think he's a genuine human being who truly means well and is a decent and good man.

His view of the world as a quasi-socialist liberal minded American is completely opposite from mine. However, he seems to have raised his children as good people.

I have a feeling if I spent a few hours with him over some beers, I'd come away liking him very much despite philosophical differences.

Destroyed the Democratic Party and Progressive hegemony, opening the way for Trump and both Houses of Congress to stack the SC and shape the Nation for decades. I reckon the pain was worth it; though it's far from over. Especially for Europe.

calling kanye a jackass
beer summit was a nice thought, but he failed everything subsequently in that regard

i actually liked his proposal with trade school and community college. i feel like if we're going to do any sort of welfare, doing it so that somebody can become a future productive taxpayer is not a terrible thing. my work spends money so that i can be a better trained worker and produce for them. that's why i'm not against fafsa grant or tax break for working mothers using day care. welfare can be used correctly to spur growth. it's usually not, but can be.

The ACA did provide insurance to many Americans who never could have afforded it before, but it's still a flawed system that is in dire need of an overhaul/replacement.

Why limit it there? His worldwide drone war that violates the sovereignty of enemies and allies alike was pretty ballsy, too.

i have to agree. the system was broken already thanks to quasi-government meddling and the rise of monolithic insurance companies that set prices.

i'm actually glad teh ACA passed because as pathetic as it is, it showed everyone the house was crumbling and needed work to fix it.

yes its a huge task to fix this but now everyone realizes SOMETHING has to be done ACA or not.
