(10,529 posts)or a disaster. We cannot point out his flaws, mistakes, and corporate influence without being dismissed as a complete Obama hater.
He did many great things and many terrible things and all sorts in between. I guess we feel the need to remind people of his flaws because of posts like this that gloss over his complete lack of accountability for Bush/Cheney and Wall Street.
To me when I think of all of the lives lost due to Iraq, a war we were lied into for oil and so the MIC can soak up our tax dollars. Wall Street committed massive fraud that brought down the world's economy, ruining people financially, emotionally, and many suicides.
These are only a couple of huge things he did that harmed tens of millions and demonstrated that there is a class of Americans above the law in this country. History usually takes some time before objective review can be had to rank a President. In Obama's case, there are some glaring problems that would prevent a top ten ranking though. Top three Presidents of all time, I think not!
