1. No one is going to care,
unless he hadn't done it. Than everyone would care.

That's how it goes.

Kind of like no one caring how many jobs were saved by the Stimulus and the Auto Bailouts,
but if the jobs hadn't been saved, than everyone and their mama would be having a cow.

It's a thankless job, more so these days than ever before.

2. So true, Frenchie!
He's got a damn good record of promises kept but the haters don't care about that.

5. Many only have criticism......
which is why a positive thread about something positive done that affects millions is
willfully ignored.

There's a difference between "legitimate" criticism and constant
negativity via one-liners indicting him for things he hasn't even done by purposefully
omitting certain germane and material facts (like bills become law) and partial truth
in order to generate more negativity and discontent.

So your question isn't even legit.....just more of that wide ass innocent disbelief
on the face of a python. :eyes:

9. You will notice that I said nothing about "haters" and said nothing that is remotely ad hominem...

Are you too tired to be civil? But thank you for your answer up to that point.
