I was thinking this over today while on the road.

Do you remember when every day under President Obama was a mixture of fear and disgust? No, I don't remember that either.

Do you remember all those times under President Obama when you had to fight tooth and nail to keep your government from killing you by taking your health care away? Wow, those days were terrible...oh, wait...no...I don't remember that happening.

Remember all of those time under President Obama when you wanted to claw your eyes out because it seemed that he was tone deaf to the plight of everyday Americans who feared getting massacred in a movie theater or shopping mall because no one in the government even gave a second thought about the possibility of a gun problem in this country? Obama and Biden didn't even express concern over this issue! As a matter of fact....ooops....wait....I'm thinking of someone else. This never happened. Sorry.

Remember whenever President Obama gave a speech, it was next to impossible to figure out what the fuck he was even talking about because he couldn't even put a sentence toget....wait...nevermind...sorry.

Remember when everything that came out of President Obama's mouth was pure horseshi.....ooopsie doopsie. Sorry, wrong guy.

Remember when you always wondered what the fuck was wrong with President Obama, and asked how we got ourselves into this fucking mess? I don't either.

The point can be debatable, but I think that history will prove to be very kind to Obama. Maybe even the the insane right wing will see it. Because right now, we are up Shit's Creek, with a turd for a paddle.

Continuous periods of stress, with occasional periods of pure panic.

because one of the traits they share with Trump is that they never admit when they are wrong. In fact, quite the opposite–they double down.

that would make them think they are wrong. It's all Fox and hate radio.
