How many bankers are in jail after crashing the economy? Speaking of banks, I did miss the break up of Citi, didn't I? Just because you believe it, does not mean objectively it it.
And let's not even get into NSA issues. Or the issues with the implementation of Common Core, a Bush Admin idea... (And the theory is noble, other countries do it, who are way to our left flank, but the implementation has been a corporate wet dream)
Yes, the ACA has helped people, but to say it is a left wing policy is either propaganda or sheer ignorance. It is not. I will give you the benefit of the doubt and say it is ignorance. Most Americans have no clue what the words they use every day mean. But to call his policies left is as laugh worthy, and incorrect, as when a far right nut job calls Obama a Marxist fascist Kenyan.
Obama is actually, scary I know, to the right of Ronald Wilson Reagan, and 25 years ago, by his own admission in a few speeches he has given where he praised Reagan, would have been a Moderate Republican. That my friend is not left.
