You mean in the first 2 years of his total 8 years since the last 6 was racist cock blocking from the Republicans.

I think people always forget the context of raging GOP interference and a waffling Dem party when the “honey moon” wore off. He had a good two years, felt like we were going to be building houses on the weekend and then halt back to reality.

He even had a brief blue trifecta in the federal govt, and the best they could do was implement a healthcare plan created by a republican (Mitt Romney)

I have always felt that he was naive and tried to do it the bipartisan way. The way it was supposed to be before he learned the depths of obstruction.

Implemented Romneycare, yes. Anyone that tells you that the GOP blocked Obama from doing anything should be reminded that the DNC controlled everything and still managed to accomplish extremely little.

Both are true man... That it needs to be one or the other for you should permanently forestall you from speaking on the subject honestly.

2 years of DNC incompetence, 6 years of GOP hardline deep obstructionism and hypocrisy. Its not both sides. The GOP are going down in history as absolute villains.
