13. And they never acknowledge the fact that the republican party fought to stop

President Obama from day one to, I'm sure, his last day in office! They blocked EVERYTHING the man wanted to do!

Many of them were willing to bring the entire government to a screeching halt and plunge this country and world into a mass panic just to stop O from helping the American people!

Then back benchers like Sanders who in all his years in government hasn't done jack squat sits back and criticizes the President and called for him to be primaried!

Here is a quote that fits from a great republican, no less. The kind that the present day republican party would expel in a heartbeat from their haters club.

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”


Theodore Roosevelt
