4.4 million jobs lost when President Obama came into office. An economic disaster. The worst in a generation.
4.4 million.
The worst financial collapse since the great Depression.
Today.
Screw the haters.
Thank you President Obama.

(68,644 posts)He became sick of the negativity and over the phone he pointed out the four things that this man accomplished that everyone seems to forget, historic things and unprecedented in our lifetimes.
And against such epic resistance and bigotry.
One was ACA, the subject of much groaning to the idiots who can't understand context and another was the economic recovery.
Not only was the freefall halted, the recovery turned it right around. Look at the graph below, that last rise from the ashes is all Obama.
And, finally, I'm sure grantcart would want me to say "Hi" to everyone.

Ya know?
How his brother can even consider running for the same office 8 years later seems completely insane to me.
It's like the entire Republican party wants to forget about Dubya.
But, millions of people lost 10s of millions of dollars because of Lil' George.
And 100s of 1000s of people lost their lives because of him, too.
So, I don't think the world will forget the enormous disaster his time as president was anytime soon.
I think he will go down in history as the worst leader of a country since Hitler.
Rightly so.
