  1. I don’t remember the same backlash when folks were calling for the assassination of President Obama.

  2. Okay. We sure didn’t see much backlash up here, though, even with the “Osama Obama Shotgun Pool.”

  3. Mmmmmm…. well, there is enough confirmation bias going around to keep everyone happy that the other side is deplorable and without any redeeming qualities…

  4. I don’t think he was horrible. It was his signature health care plan that let me have the surgery to fix a “pre-existing condition” I had been dealing with for forty-plus years. I think Obama will go down in history as one of the best, if not THE best, despite unprecedented obstruction by the opposition party.

  5. My previous statement was rhetorical to everyone who says Obama will go down as “The worst president in history.”
