Letter: Listing Obama’s ‘accomplishments’

By Ron Jones, Vancouver
Published: October 3, 2015, 6:00am

I am extremely gratified that Jimmy Carter has lived to the ripe old age where he can take solace in the fact that he is not the worst president ever. No, I wish him well. I also wish he were still in office. Here’s why. He’s not the worst president ever, President Obama is. Some Obama accomplishments …

Obama on race: Race baiter in chief with Al Sharpton.

Obama on foreign trade: Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl for Islam’s finest.

Obama on National Security: Nukes for Iran.

Obama on ISIS: JV president calling out JV terrorists.

Obama on the law: Most lawless president ever.

Obama on Planned Parenthood: Free market.

Obama on Health Care: Keep your doctor.

Obama on the economy: You didn’t build that.

Obama on team building: Dream team Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi.

Obama on transparency: Hired a Clinton.

Obama on integrity: Hired a Clinton.

Obama on law enforcement: Pigs in a blanket.

What does all this mean when it comes to the Obama legacy? It’s a good start.
