Obama’s Damned-Nation
Years from now historians will look at the presidency of Barack Obama and assess that while his goals could have perhaps been well intentioned when he campaigned for office for his first term, the ensuing campaign for his second term and the desire to change very little was conclusive proof that he couldn’t care less about the nation’s outcome.

LOL. He held the biggest campaign rally of 2008 in a foreign nation … for foreigners. That said it all. He should have been thrown out of the race immediately, and then some.

They still do not get that it is all very much intentional. BHO is a willing wrecking ball to prepare the onward march of the leftist way.

Only problem is that all historians are liberal Democrats.
I have no doubt that if O’bama loses in November, they will all blame it on Racism, not on his own failures.

Most people would acknowledge that he’s tried real hard.

Ditto, also get the latest version of the NoScript add-on. I NEVER see video ads or pop-ups anymore.

Anybody who comes to that conclusion wasn’t paying attention in 2008, and is unfit to be taken seriously, historian or otherwise.

McCullough makes the same mistake too many conservatives do – excusing, or even praising Bush, while damning Obama. Obama was Bush’s successor, for good reason.

Then historians will lose more clout with regular people, who don’t like being called racists for no good reason.

I was going to comment on Townhall, but the comment section looked like it was being overrun by Paulbots.
Oh, wait.

And DoNotTrack Plus is highly recommended, too.

Not true at all.
But, popular academic intro to american history 101 will probably remember Barry simply for being the first of his “race” and for being young and “inspiring”. And a mediocre president who “tried” but was incompetent and hampered by a weak personality and large amounts of detractors. A sort of boring, slow bleh period of American history. Like how we remember the early 80s, the mid 70s, and the late 40s. Or maybe how you think of say, the 1890s. Not particularly distinctive, no great changes or advances for the most part, prosperity enough -even while people of the period panicked about economic turmoil.
Nobody really remembers Gerry Ford or Grover Cleveland other than for being unelected and for being fat, respectively. Same will go for Obama, in the long term. He’s really not that interesting of a character nor are any of his “aaomplishments” or doings that important or meaningful in the grand scheme.

Yep. I’ve tried Ghostery as well, but much prefer DNT.

First read-through, dropped the fourth “s” in assess. Second read-through, thought I was right the first time.

FIFY
The Rogue Tomato on July 8, 2012 at 2:25 PM
Much better.
Fallon on July 8, 2012 at 2:46 PM
And the other half of the country is saying “I have a feeling Reagan will be in the top two or three worse presidents we have EVER had in years to come. There can not be one single positive thing I can think of Reagan has done, NONE!”
And until the two sides of this argument learn to understand how and why their fellow citizens think the way they do, nothing will change or improve…

Oh the White House commie cares alright. He’s just PO’ed that his little scheme to turn the US into a marxist state is being exposed a little bit too soon.
