Your critique of Obama likely won't be published but it will be read by somebody at the Times.

He did succeed in one thing: screwing up the country, at least in the short-term.

I can see it: “I’d hit him. Right upside the head.”

I’d like to write them my opinion of Obama’s legacy, but I don’t think they’ll publish anything with so many four-letter words.

I can tell you right now the won't. They think it is racist, homophobic, misogynist, Islamaphobic and that you are a hater to use words like work, hire, holy, pray, amen, able, ably, boss, busy, crew, food, or any other thing that might get offend with microaggression words such as these.

So yes, you would just be wasting your time and energy.

Don’t need 200 words, don’t need three words, just three letters.

His legacy?

How'bout the antics of the Clinton Regime Change Investment Club that transpired on his watch, for starters...
