you guys can blather on about Bush all you want but the fact remains that there is no meaningful recovery, what little good news exists that you can rest your hat on is the stock market which is a complete mirage thanks to the Fed, and it's going to get worse not better for most Americans, Obamacare is a debacle in every sense, more Americans are dependent on government than ever before...record numbers of Americans not working...oil prices remain high(how's that Keystone Pipeline going?) this president has been lying repeatedly to the American people and that is no longer debatable, he's eclipsed every former president in many areas and now clearly in terms of dishonesty and incompetence, but those two often go hand in hand, one attempting to cover up for the other. His "signature accomplishment" was forced on the country through tricks and lies....not a good way to do business but if you lack a conscience I guess you just carry on as though everyone must now live with what you've perpetrated....will he pay a political price? he doesn't have to get elected again but narcissists like this are often consumed with their image and so legacy construction might be a concern to him, tough to know if he considers further destruction of the country a positive or a negative in terms of his legacy, those that support him and will continue to carry his water going forward will do so as a result of a desire for further destruction(fundamental change)....he'll have to decide if he'd rather be loathed by many and idolized by a few or settle for less destruction and perhaps a more favorable public opinion of his presidency, he can count on the dems and the media to go all out to paint him in the most favorable light if he chooses the latter, he is, afterall, their "signature accomplishment" and one that we have to live with for 3 more years
