LETTER: Thank God the American electorate has consigned Obama legacy to dustbin

Published 1:30 am Sunday, February 5, 2017

In rebuttal to the Jan. 29 letter in Peninsula Voices, “Will miss Obama,” Obama did not lead the country “out of a serious financial crisis.”

Our economy survived despite eight years of the president’s size 12, hobnailed, regulatory boot clamped firmly athwart the throat of the private sector.

“Creating a game-changing national health policy” is nationalizing one-sixth of the private-sector economy without bipartisan support, an act of socialism.

He cleared the way for Iran to eventually become nuclear-armed, thus ensuring the death of Israel.

He made our criminal justice system nothing more than a catch-and-release program.

His foreign policies have created the chaos and uncertainty now rampant in the world.

These are his specific victories?

I thank God for the collective common sense of the American electorate who, with one bold stroke, has consigned the Obama administration to the dustbin of history.
