    I would disagree and say Obama was a bully but just much more circumspect about how he went about doing it.

    How so? Passive aggressive?

    I just found Obama to be a big fat ZERO. Capitulates to the banks when that was the exact time to reform the system - and the entire country would have been behind him. Instead we get the band aid of ACA, which I'm still torn on. I had to use it for a couple years and it was a nice option to have (though, not really that cheap and you get taxed on all the subsidies, which cost me an extra $500-1000), but I remember my employer insurance being much better before ACA.

    Yep.
    Obama created this mess.
    Just gotta ride the Trump storm out…
    Next party who gets majority must cool it down with the rhetoric so we can appear to be a normal nation again.

    They don’t or cannot hear this point.
    It’s exactly true though.

    Perhaps you aren’t as clever as you think…
    Obama was as snarky as the day was long…

    I love how it's on the "next guy".

    Way to really fight for Haley (that very person) in the primary dude. We were so close. Must be tough for someone who was as deep in the trenches as you. :D

    They all kiss his ass and wait for him to state an opinion before they jump on board. It’s truly sad.

    Which would be passive aggressive.

    Thanks for playing. Parting gifts at the door.

    Give me one instance of Obama bullying, just so I can see where you're coming from.

    It’s been a slow erosion of our protections. I’m not sure what Obama had to do with it. Reagan did away with the Fairness Doctrine, which opened the door for misinformation to be presented as fact without any requirement for balance. He also deregulated corporations, allowing them to eliminate pensions — contributing to a growing segment of the population, especially the middle class, that now feels excluded from the American dream.

    Agree that the next administration needs to learn from this and tamp down the rhetoric. Be a president for everyone.

    The Press Dinner?

    Where he eviscerated Trump. . . and maybe started this whole mess?

    The time that Obama gave a talk at GW about fiscal responsibility and criticized Ryan's "Path to Prosperity" plan with Ryan in the front row of the audience. Then there was the time he criticized the SCOTUS decision on Citizens United during the SOTU with the Justices in attendance.

    Since this is the little game you "guys" like to play, I guess I'm in. You're reported. Can't believe I'm stooping to this, but it is what it is. I literally was banned because I said certain posters were embarrassing to me as an American. Let that sink in for a second. Like, imagine being that guy.

    Personally, I'd prefer we let it all hang out and say what we really mean and feel. But, "some people" are too sensitive for that kind of exchange, so here we are. . .
