Hopefully people look back on this period of time and wonder WTF people were thinking electing all of these know-nothings and anarchists destroying our government and/or making it totally dysfunctional- esp knowing, in a lot of cases- that people actually explicitly RAN on a platform of ruining government!


President Obama has never gotten a fair shake IMHO and was dealt possibly the worse hand ever when it came to the Congress that he was given to work with. Even the Democratic Congress he was given at the start of his Presidency wasn't all that great (though certainly better than what we've had since 2011)

I think of all the progress that could be made in so many areas, all the good that could be done; and the Repugs stop everything that President Obama tries to get passed.

With the Repugs, we seem to be going backward, instead of forward.

(Thank you to whoever gave me the hearts)

the shitstainers can make all the fuss they want, the haters can hate til they drop dead, but the President is loved and will be remembered forever as the best of the lot.

He is appreciated and his work will make a difference for a long time to come.

Just imagine what he would be capable of accomplishing if his opposition and some of 'his friends' (ahem) wouldn't be trying to hurt him every single day.
