Obama say you could keep your doctors. You lose your doctors
Obama say health care cost will save you money. It will cost you ALOT of money
Obama say ISIS is contained. Terrorists attack happen a few days later
OBama say “what? You’re afraid of woman and children?” Few days later a woman with a children involved in terrorists activity in
America
Obama say US economy is doing well, US economy crashes

Literally EVERYTHING Obama say will happen the opposite is true

No, not this time. But last time, yes. he bore some of the blame for the housing bubble that led to the crash of 2008.

Lefties blame Bush for everything. Bushbots say he isn’t responsible for anything. Both sides have the same partisan perspective, just pointing opposite ways

Not that I am an economist, but with insider trading, and all the other guaranteed perks of a high political office, I am sure they are doing great.
