>> None of these things were priorities for Republicans

Of course, not. The Republicans don't favor nominating pro-choice Supreme Court nominees or further intrusions of government into business.

But some of these made me laugh out loud ...

>>> Expanded access to medical care and provided subsidies for people who can't afford it.

Except that (a) we can't afford it, (b) while it may (MAY) improve access, it vastly cuts the quality of care, and (c) it is probably going to be tossed by the Court.

>>> Invested in clean energy.

It isn't "investing" when flush money down the toilet, which is what he has done. See Brummar's post:

>>> He created a Elizabeth Warren's dream agency: The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

LOL. We ALL wanted that, now didn't we?

>>> Overhauled the credit card industry, making it much more consumer-friendly.

You DO realize that Obama's VP led the charge on the most anti-consumer credit card legislation in history, which totally re-wrote the bankruptcy code to give credit card companies vastly more power against consumers, right?

This incompetent fool has been the worst president in my lifetime.
