He did a lot of things that were cr@p that I hope Trump can get undone, but the knee-jerk right reaction that President Obama is the worst President ever is way off base. At the very least, he didn't die one month into office because he chose the worst weather in the history of Inauguration Day to unleash the longest Inauguration Address ever. Yes, that actually happened.

Not sure which thread this belongs in, but since this is a leftist tearing down Obama I figured here would be nice:

I'm loving the leftist meltdown and how they are cannibalizing their own. None of this ever happens without hilldog loss. :lol: :clap:

I'm not sure how to rate him. Domestic policy an F. But that is because I don't agree with him from a policy perspective. Foreign policy- no new wars but a lazy continuation of the old ones. Iran deal awful. Putin awful. But honestly because we didn't start a new war I guess a b.Demeanor generally good but let's face it he lied about Aca or was simply stupid. Comments like you didn't build that are as hyperbolic as shit trump says just no one in the media will ever say it. Biggest problem is he ran on a post partisan post racial post political campaign which a lot of people bought. I was like what has he done besides speeches that would make you think that besides he learned politics in Chicago. Irs( I know nothing to see there) stifling regulations a total lack of economic understanding-:(. Yet when people criticized Michelle Obama for talking about how proud of America she was for him being elected I was like yeah me too. Very historic and important figure. Very mediocre president and leader.

I don't see how you could rate his foreign policy above average which is what a 'B' would be.
-The awful Iran deal and getting schooled by Putin that you mentioned.
-Disaster on Syria (the 'red line' which turned out to be no line at all, and ISIS was the 'JV team'). He worked to destabilze Assad which weakened Assad not enough to remove him from power but enough that it allowed ISIS to flourish in its birthplace. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. This has set off the worst humanitarian crisis in Europe since WW II, with millions of regugees flooding north. 500 million spent to train only a handful of rebels.
-Another power vacuum created in Libya by working to have Quadafi removed. Quadafi had given up his WMDs. All that Obama helped do was create a power vacuum that allowed Al Quaeda and later ISIS to move in. The Benghazi disaster was a result of this Obama failure.

The list goes on. Other than OBL being killed under Obama's watch Obama has accomplished nothing of note foreign policy wise. He has been a complete disaster. You could maybe argue a 'D' instead of an 'F' because of the killing of OBL..

Probably right. Probably skewed by my view of the previous presidents foreign policy.

Via NY Post:
The Obamas are moving into a nine-bedroom mansion in the Kalorama section of Washington — the posh neighborhood of diplomats and DC old money — while younger daughter Sasha finishes high school at Sidwell Friends. But they have apparently been buying real estate elsewhere, too.

According to sources, the Obamas have purchased a house in Rancho Mirage, Calif., not far from Sunnylands, the former Annenberg estate, which presidents use as a getaway and which is thought of as the unofficial West Coast Camp David.

Rancho Mirage, where Gerald Ford retired, is a top destination for golf — a favorite pastime of President Obama. The local daily newspaper, the Desert Sun, has reported rumors of such a sale for more than a year. But sources say now it’s a done deal.

Rancho Mirage, CA residence. . .$4.25M

Waimanalo, Hawaii residence ..... $8.7M

D.C. residence ..... (leasing $5M)

Dubai residence.....$4.9M (Dubai offers limited extradition)

Chicago residence:.....$1,650,000
