waitforufo Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 A picture says a thousand words. Stock market currently up 160 points. Enjoying my schadenfreude. Hillary to tired to give a concession speech last night. I wonder if they had to wake her up to tell her she lost? All Obama's executive order gone with one signature. Obamacare soon dead. Paris Climate Accord meaningless and fossil fuel energy development to begin in earnest. Immigration laws to be enforced. Borders to be strengthened. Supreme Court justices to be nominated by conservatives. What a happy day! -9
dimreepr Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 A picture says a thousand words. But only two is needed, 'you're screwed'.
rangerx Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 A picture says a thousand words. Stock market currently up 160 points. Enjoying my schadenfreude. Hillary to tired to give a concession speech last night. I wonder if they had to wake her up to tell her she lost? All Obama's executive order gone with one signature. Obamacare soon dead. Paris Climate Accord meaningless and fossil fuel energy development to begin in earnest. Immigration laws to be enforced. Borders to be strengthened. Supreme Court justices to be nominated by conservatives. What a happy day! Gloating at neo-fascism. Pathetic, really. No less at a time when we're compelled to remember those who died fighting it.
waitforufo Posted November 9, 2016 Author Posted November 9, 2016 Gloating at neo-fascism. Pathetic, really. No less at a time when we're compelled to remember those who died fighting it. Yeah, I know, I'm deplorable.
Sirona Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 (edited) Yeah, I know, I'm deplorable. Surely you realise, despite your personal political view, climate change is an issue which concerns everyone; we should not be divided with our concern for the planet if we are to have any future at all.

Phi for All Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 Yeah, I know, I'm deplorable. No, you're a racist. You had an opportunity to make this about your candidate, but instead you titled the thread as an attack against a POTUS who did a damn fine job as our first black person in the position. Everything you've ever condemned him on have been things done by Republicans before him. He's less hawkish than either of the Bush's, he's right of Eisenhower. He kept taxes reasonable, even on the wealthy. I know you don't think People should have affordable healthcare, but Obama did, and I can hardly see that as evil. That just leaves the fact that he's black. So good job, David Duke. You're Obama's real legacy. We know how you really feel now. We always suspected, but weren't sure until now. 3
John Cuthber Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 (edited) All Obama's executive order gone with one signature. What a happy day! So, you are delighted to undo the work of Obama. Which aspects do you have a problem with? 78 straight months of economic expansion. the longest period of private sector job creation in American history. Unemployment has dropped from 10.1% in October of 2009 to 4.9% by early 2016. The stock market continues to set new record highs since President Obama took office. The Federal budget deficit is shrinking. It’s been reduced by two-thirds since 2009. Under President Obama, government spending has increased only 3.3% annually, the lowest rate since Eisenhower was president For 95% of American taxpayers, income taxes are as low or lower than they were at almost any point in the last 50 years. Dependence on foreign oil has shrunk due to record domestic oil production and improved fuel efficiency standards. At least 18 million more Americans now have health insurance than before. The Affordable Care Act has added years to the life of Medicare. Since passage of the Affordable Care Act, we are seeing the slowest rate of increase in healthcare costs since 1960. We currently have fewer soldiers, sailors, and airmen in war zones than we did at any time in the last 12 years. There have been zero successful attacks by al Qaeda on US soil since Obama became president. We now successfully catch and deport more illegal immigrants than ever before.

waitforufo Posted November 9, 2016 Author Posted November 9, 2016 Surely you realise, despite your personal political view, climate change is an issue which concerns everyone; we should not be divided with our concern for the planet if we are to have any future at all. On the contrary, I'm looking forward to climate change. The climate just keeps getting better and better. Take a look around. The evidence is everywhere. No, you're a racist. You had an opportunity to make this about your candidate, but instead you titled the thread as an attack against a POTUS who did a damn fine job as our first black person in the position. Everything you've ever condemned him on have been things done by Republicans before him. He's less hawkish than either of the Bush's, he's right of Eisenhower.

That just leaves the fact that he's black. So good job, David Duke. You're Obama's real legacy. We know how you really feel now. We always suspected, but weren't sure until now. My My. What a great post for demonstrating why Trump won. Agree with Obama and you're a enlightened genius. Disagree with Obama and you're a racist. Sorry, your race card has been Trumped. So, you are delighted to undo the work of Obama.

Gee, maybe you should think a little bit about what happened yesterday. You are painting a picture of sunshine, rainbows, and lollipops, but the electorate isn't happy and is not buying your list of wonderful statistics. Obama vigorously campaigned for Hillary. Hillary, Obama, and the Democratic party was selling Hillary as four more years of Obama. Doesn't look like the nation bought it. At the moment, Minnesota might flip to Trump. Minnesota for f**k sake. Yet you are bewildered by how anyone can challenge Obama's record of accomplishment. Well take a good look at it before it is gone. -4
hypervalent_iodine Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 ! Moderator Note I am closing this pending review. Posting threads for the purpose of flaming and inciting hostility is not appreciated, waitforufo. If you wish to discus the POTUS and fate of the work he has achieved, do so respectfully.
imatfaal Posted November 10, 2016 Posted November 10, 2016 ! Moderator Note After review, it was decided this thread should remain locked. There are ways of approaching a debate - some are looking for a discussion, others wish to make a point, or explore an idea; it is also clear when an OP is deliberately inflammatory. A thread on the legacy of Obama might be welcomed - but not if, from the get-go, the thread is designed to provoke and insult. 2
