[MrScorpio]

By "destroys" meaning that helped the country recover from GOPr malfeasance and incompetence and despite the fact that he had to do it all alone.

1. facts never matter to conservatives that show how wrong their beliefs are....

my own 88yr mother still rants and raves about FDR and his socialism forced on america like Social Security and Medicare....both programs that give my mom a decent living AND saved her life....a conservative will chew their leg off before admitting to facts that run counter to their beliefs

9. That's why why they tend to end up without a leg to stand on in any rational political discussion.

Were it not for the obstructionist Congress he battled for the entirety of his two terms.

I guess the president didn't go around with black helicopters to confiscate peoples guns...

11. It would be informative to see a comparison of these with...

a similar one of Dubya's 8 years...

Side by side!

Can DUers do it?

While not always in complete agreement, I admire, respect, and even love this president. We and everyone we know are better off than they were 8 years ago. Now, that's saying something!

The White House announced earlier that US high school graduation rates for the 2014-2015 school year was the highest number on record at 83.2%, although significant disparities still exist between groups of students.

According to the National Center for Education Statistics, every group -- from race to low-income students to those with disabilities -- had increases in graduation rates, although the numbers vary from group to group.

And the news just keeps getting better.
