Wait a second---are you saying Barak Obama is a proponent of trickle down economics?

Oh, by the way, Bernie the Super Socialist just bought his third house for about 600,000 bux. Not too bad for the champion of the little guy, eh? Ever read Animal Farm? Might want to.

Michelle is a sweetheart. I think she's a beautiful woman that is a bit easy on the eyes compared to most First Ladies. I'm not saying Obama is perfect.

Go ahead. List the "accomplishments". I'd like to see this list.

A helicopter filled with special ops guys dropped in the Iranian desert. For 444 days our embassy was held hostage in Tehran. Carter's foreign policy was feckless, and his economy boasted 21% interest rates.
But hey, thanks to Obama, Carter no longer has to worry about "worst presidency of the past 100 years".
