Now that is pure fantasy. Disagree with his policies and priorities all you like, but the economy is in much better shape than when Obama took office, we have far fewer troops engaged in foreign conflicts, and we avoided default on the government's obligations, despite the tea party's most strident efforts. He took conservative measures - such as the barest revision of the Bush tax cuts when he could have let them expire completely, a compromise that disappointed many on the left; but as a result of the deal struck, we did not sink into another recession. I don't see how you can call those results "our worst disaster" with a straight face. You must be kidding, because I have not perceived you as an idiot - but you might be trying to prove me wrong.
