‘Obama disasters’ look good

Tue., Sept. 6, 2016

Unemployment is down to 4.9 percent since President Obama has taken office, with over 8.4 million jobs added. The federal deficit is down, over 18.5 million previously uninsured Americans now have health insurance under the Affordable Care Act, climate emissions have been reduced significantly with the first-ever global agreement to do so, the stock market has risen over 50 percent, gas prices are down and clean energy dependence has now become much more reliant. Too many more accomplishments to list.

Are these the “Obama disasters” that Bob Strong refers to in his Aug. 28 letter? He can go ahead vote for the misogynistic, narcissistic, racist, bigoted con man, and I’ll happily put my money down on the much smarter choice.
