re: NY Post: Time to Face Facts; Obama's Presidency Was a Failure

The New York Post calling Obama a failure is like the New York Times calling Bush a failure.

In other news, water is wet.

Sorry. I clicked on the chart and that didn't include the whole article.

Obama’s approval rating from his first day to his last, in charts

The approval ratings are from Gallup.

Come on buckeye, we know that Gallup is fake news poll.

What was Obama's approval ratings on his last day in office?

What are Trump's current ones?

Approval ratings are meaningless in terms of judging political effectiveness.

The same population that elected Trump - for which you criticize - hold those approval ratings for Obama.

Americans, by a vast majority, are politically inept. Their opinions on political matters have no value.

One more prevarication on your part. There are a good many liberals here. Some of them, like losh, try to camoflouge their left-wing nature by falsely portraying themselves as libertarian.

Others use various facades. One left-wing poster even sports an av of Ronald Reagan in a pathetic attempt to hide his true nature. Won't call him out by name, though.

It will be interesting to see how history views him twenty years from now. I probably will not be around to see it but many here will be and I suspect his groupies, and they are legion, will continue to sing his praises while propagating their various versions of revisionist history.

I remember vividly the true stories of both Nixon and Carter and, even today, Nixon was not nearly as bad as pundits claim nor was Carter nearly as intelligent or compassionate as his worshippers still tout to this day. I'm amazed at how many lefties my age and older will freely, openly and proudly proclaim Carter to be their favorite POTUS prior to Obama.

Our saving grace may be, with regard to Obama, that many kids these days, in HS, college and even in their mid to late twenties, know the truth. They'll not be nearly as idealistic in their forties, fifties and sixties as they are now. They are not as brainwashable as we might worry them to be.

I'm predicting a pretty big swing of the pendulum in the next couple of decades ... Obama has done some damage. The main problem is going to be overcoming the shift to the left of the pivot point on the pendulum - Obama shifted that considerably with his social welfare and immigration policies and about the time those anchor babies become old enough to vote, 20-25 years from now, there will be another swing back to the far left and all of Obama's major, and minor, transgressions will be revisited in a favorable light by the cancerous MSM with the help of a resurging influence by Obama by then ... who will still be around unfortunately.

So how he is judged historically - in the long run - is probably going to be in a positive light, on the written record, but those adults who lived through it will spread the true word on his fricktard arse much as people my age have offered our opinions on LBJ (asshat, socialist), Nixon (insecure political megalomaniac, but a genius with good intentions where our country was concerned), Ford (original RINO), Carter (egocentric idealistic socialist fricktard), Reagan (I loved the man but he had his faults, though not many, God Bless him forever), HW Bush (horrible POTUS and modern epitome of RINO), Clinton (sheesh, the ultimate opportunist, bullshitter, horseshoe up his arse politician. A used car salesman, a liar.), GW Bush (meant well, was hard to count on one way or the other politically but he was dealt a bad hand both timing-wise and genetically. He did far more good things than bad though.), ... and I then there is this total fricking evil frick named Obama. How he polarized the greatest nation on Earth to the point that we are ... I never ever thought I would see the day and I lived through the sixties.

What Obama's legacy should always begin with is pathologically anti-U.S. of A., criminally fricking evil on so many levels it boggles the mind.

I keep hearing that Generation Z is going to be one of the most conservative generations in America's history.
