Good Riddance, Mr. Obama, by Robert Gore
Barack Obama was not the worst president in US history. That honor goes to Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who was dead before most of us were born. Any education in history threatens to shed light on present conditions, so it’s been eliminated from curricula, replaced with pandering propaganda. Proper instruction would teach that FDR effected the sea change that transformed the US from a melting pot of mostly self-confident, self-reliant, marvelously competent individuals into a bankrupt welfare and warfare state, the majority of whose citizens are jumpy at their own shadows, afraid of their fellow citizens, and terrified of their politicians. Mr. Obama has merely been mop-up relief for the welfare-warfare team’s starter, FDR.

He will spout of his worthless opinions till the cows come home.
Well said, what comes to mind is regarding the contradiction about FDR, here in accord with you. "By the essence and nature of existence, contradictions cannot exist.”

Let's get started dismantling this disastrous behemoth! (Investigating and indicting any and all persons within the government who used their powers inappropriately -- in any recent government -- is another beginning step.
Think you're sick of that traitor now? Just wait.
Every one of Obama's speeches have been about himself, with the words I, me, my, mine used more than in any other President's speeches. When the American people clearly were not in agreement with his position, he chalked it up to them being unable to understand, needing more explanation.
For one of the most voluble Presidents in history, his speeches have largely been forgettable, with few memorable phrases. Some of his speeches have been staggering in overblown self imagery, such as the one he made bragging about his pending actions on climate change, where he pronounced that history would mark this as the day the seas began to recede, as though he was a new Moses.
Obama skipped dictator, skipped monarch, and went straight to deity, in his own mind. More infallible than the Pope, thwarted by only those evil minions of hellfire, the Republicans. He will not be missed.
Can mankind not conceive of some better version? Sorry, that's out of reach for most everyone.
"His tactic was breathtakingly simple: use the government’s failures to expand the government." I submit that this tactic has long legs and has been adopted many times by the statists. Creating a problem allows them to justify more statist action thus creating more "unintended" consequences, requiring more intervention.. Rinse and repeat... ad infinitum... until the inevitable collapse. It is the unavoidable, inevitable story of empire building. Jefferson knew of the perils- "The natural progress of things is for liberty to yield, & government to gain ground."
There are so many reputable books available now that clearly contradict the unearned elevation of near hero/savior status of FDR. And, yet it is still the predominant propaganda we were all fed decades ago by statist historians that dominate the thinking of the majority of citizens. The only good that FDR did was sign the 20th amendment/repeal the 18th amendment. :) Buuurp!
Obama was definitely cut from the same cloth. Yes, good riddance.
Always a pleasure reading your work SLL.

I'm skeptical that Trump will do anything other than move the government along the same path his predecessors did, and which I deplored in my article. As for whether he's a clown and a showman, I'll judge the man by his results.
Obama can't die quick enough.
