First a little background, I never vote party but I do vote for the person that I think can do the best job and my voting record (starting with Regan's first election) has been Republican. If there had been a Dem (since 1980) that I would have considered a better candidate I would have voted for them.

Anyhow the bride and I were discussing Barry's performance and during the 8 years he was there and we could not remember a single thing that we considered a POSITIVE, all we could remember were the things a man should not be remembered for. If a man set in that office for 8 years I would think there should be at least a dozen things good happen.

Can anyone come up with a half dozen accomplishments? When I ask this question I don't include free phones or the largest jump in food stamp history as a positive.

He allegedly killed Osama Bin Laden and expanded the GI Bill. That's about it.

However, the signature achievement (which will likely be eliminated soon) was the reopening of relations with Cuba.

ETA: even though he looked weak in the process, he did do a good job of keeping us out of Syria (you know, other than secretly funding and arming ISIS and giving the Iranians yellowcake uranium and money to develop weapons at a base in Syria).

Besides stealing my healthcare as a small business he did open Cuban relations, I can’t think of anything else positive. But I will give him that

He balked on the "red line" when the media/MIC/bureaucrats all pushed him on it...

Beer summit, which was an apology for his mistake in the first place

He did that in SPITE of his policies, not BECAUSE of them.

He happened to be sitting in the office when our intelligence and special forces had the ace in the hole and had nailed Obam...er, I mean Osama down......because of the previous administration's intelligence gathering and hard work.

We should roll on Cuba with the quickness, take out the commies once and for all and free those people to a better life. Kennedy should have done it now I guess DJT will have to clean up this liberal mess.
