>>>Bottom line, ACA was bad policy.
>>>Executive order on immigration (which involved granting work permits and writing checks from the U.S. Treasury) was bad policy.
>>>Iran deal was bad policy
>>>Other executive orders getting shot down by the courts (including 9-0 rebukes) was bad policy
>>>Stimulus was flawed policy (helped states, but federal implementation was a total cluster____)

>>>I am sure that it comes as no surprise that I agree with you. And I am certain that little Victor will be around shortly to tell me that I am a racist (as well as other colorful epithets that he can dig up in his tiny vocabulary) because I did not agree with Obama's policies. Although I am no stalwart Trump supporter, I always felt that anyone was going to be better than Hillary. I know that we disagreed on this small technical point. But now it is the dawn of a new day. The future will be interesting. Let's see Trump's cabinet picks.....

>>I keep saying that I'm not calling you a racist - what I'm saying is that you're supporting a racist. Do you understand the difference between these two things or not? Because if you don't just tell me now and I will stop repeating myself - or simply admit you understand the difference and that I'm not calling you a racist.

>Obama was overtly racist and yet a ton of people supported him. What's the difference?

[mock surprise] Obama was racist?!?! [/mock surprise] but... but... that *can't* be true. Minorities *can't* be racist -- by definition*

* at least that's what I could gather from usage of the term. Was frequently labeled as racist by many schoolmates because I was NOT of Hispanic or other ethnic minority (the school district was over 90% Hispanic). On a similar note -- it wasn't until I was already in 8th grade did the school district reclassified me as bilingual -- apparently it took them that long to realize that bilingual doesn't specifically mean the second language is (Mexican) Spanish. Goes without saying that the motivation was strictly economic -- they could increase the count of bilingual students to get increased federal funding.
