Welcome to the final full day of Barack Obama’s presidency. Let’s look at his “legacy.”

We should probably thank him...Congratulations, Mr. President, and thank you for your service

By weaponizing the IRS, the Obama administration whetted America’s appetite for the elimination or restructuring of the IRS.

By constantly wailing about the evils of the 2nd Amendment Barack Obama became history’s greatest gun salesman.

Is this like a contest? Shall we contribute information to establish the Obama legacy?

Here’s some of mine:

Largest deficit in the history of the country, greater than the deficits of all U.S. Presidents combined.

Installing Muslim Brotherhood as leaders in the Middle East during the “Arab Spring”

Responsible, personally, for the worst racial relations and anti-police sentiment seen in this country since the 60’s.

Taking advantage of the American taxpayers to the tune of nearly $100 million worth of family vacations.

Responsible for the disaster of Obamacare, ACA...

How many points awarded for this list?

Question of the Day: “Will he or won’t he pardon Hillary”?

Less than 24 hours to go.

Place your bets.

Never should have happened.

Obama is proof of the wisdom of the founders.
They tried to prevent this by requiring a natural born citizen.
Barack Hussein Obama/Barry Soetoro is NOT a natural born citizen.

The Kenyanesian Usurpation was brought to you by BOTH parties.

The Constitution says natural born citizen.
That means one who is naturally an American because they couldn’t be anything else, born here of citizen parents.
Everyone in DC wanted that changed without the hassle of amending the Constitution.
The Senate passed a resolution declaring McCain a natural born citizen because he had TWO citizen parents, even though he was born in Panama.
Then Obama runs and wins based on just being born here, even though he told us on his website he was born a British subject.
So the standard went from born here of citizen parents to just TWO citizen parents to just being born here in one election cycle without amending the Constitution.
According to this standard the recently deceased King of Thailand was eligible, he was born in Cambridge MA, as well as every anchor baby with no loyalty to the USA.
This was done intentionally because Rubio (no citizen parents), Cruz (foreign birth, one citizen parent), Jindal (no citizen parents), George P Bush (one citizen parent) and Haley (no citizen parents) were all ineligible and the future of the GOP.

The truth of the Kenyanesian Usurpation will never see the light of day because they all cooperated in the violation of the Constitution.

For these “retrospectives” about the Obama regime - I am so surprised pundits rarely mention - $10 Trillion in new debt and 8 years of 0% interest rates.

More debt than all Presidents previous put together - all with the help of the Federal Reserve buying US debt and suppressing interest rates to make it all possible.

If/When the story of the decline of the USA is written in the future - it won’t be that we had a particularly stupid health insurance laws or the excessive power of some Fed.gov agency. It will be, like all, that we destroyed our wealth and people with massive debt, fake money, and how it all supported a huge, rapacious government that turned us from a Republic into an Empire.

I just drove in to the office and heard NPR (about the only thing that comes in out here).

They are in tears over there.

The man had unbelievable amounts of gas.

His flatulence is legendary.

It’s rumored that when he blasted, doors slammed shut 100 miles away.

Best part of his legacy? He virtually destroyed the Democrat party as a national party.

Now the Democrats only represent certain central metro governments, located on the East and West Coasts, and a few metro centers in between, with HUGE stretches of flyover country with no Democrat representation in their districts at all, or very little, at the national and state levels.

US ambassadors now have targets on their back as the “old days” when harming one was the worst decision in bad guy’s lives have been wiped out thanks to Obama and Hillary.

The next incident with a US ambassador will almost require an over reaction thanks to him.

That part ended up possibly being critical in getting Trump elected, in my humble opinion. The anti-police sentiment--especially with the massacres against the police in Baton Rouge, LA and Dallas, TX last year--turned off too many voters in "flyover country."

That is undoubtedly the best part of his legacy.
If he continues to flap his gums and won’t relinquish the spotlight, he may reduce any chance they have for a comeback for generations.

Benghazi. Fast and Furious. Fags in the military. Fag “marriage”. Socialism in medical care. Less than 300 ship navy. Federal lands off limits to energy development. 10 trillion dollars of new public debt. And nothing to show for it. Violence in our cities. Organized, government sanctioned racist groups. Fags on the Supreme Court. Communists on the Supreme Court. Racists on the Supreme Court. Muslim Brotherhood infiltrating the intelligence community. Abuse of the intelligence community. Abuse of the IRS. Higher taxes. Economic stagnation. Abortions paid for by government. Moslem terrorism on American soil. A flood of illegal aliens. Some of whom are moslem terrorists.

His dictator-like mentality-——love of power and status and access to free money——was all-consuming.

He did not want to leave.

He read his high approvals w/ his ego....the citizenry wanted him to stay. Truth is people approved that he was finally leaving.

Said stupid things like he was being “forced out.” Raised trial balloons for another term.

He warned voters his legacy was on the ballot along w/ Hillary.....voters said no.

He and Hillary both got the bum’s rush.
