It was Reagan who made those tax shelters go away in 1986

And it was long over due. I have always regarded that and breaking
the Air Traffic Controllers union as Reagan's two biggest
accomplishments. Of course some would say that his "Star Wars Missile
Defense" plan led to the demise of the former Soviet Union, and to the
extent that it might be true, that would be his biggest accomplishment
of all.

I wonder what O'Bama's legacy will be.

The only thing I can think of is offing Bin Laden. That was not a
trivial accomplishment and he certainly does deserve credit for
approving the plan. Not everyone would have done that. Other than
that he's a huge disappointment of course. I had hoped that he might
provide some much needed inspiration and leadership to the inner city
youth of this country but that doesn't seem to be one of his
priorities.

I am with you on that. In the very beginning I thought I might even vote
for him, then I realized he had not experience at all whatsoever that
would be necessary in a POTUS. Either way, still had big hopes when he
won, the first black president and all hoped he would be looked at as
great in history, but now I doubt it. I think his "legacy" will be "he
was a liar"...

His legacy will be a long list of accomplishments for the American
people, a list that would have been a lot longer without the asshat
obstructionists in the GOP. There might have even been job training and
job placement for an incompetent little turd like you,

Somehow, you hate the idea of Checks and Balances, when it applies to
Liberal Democrats. eh?
