Esteemed and world-renowned commentator Tomi Lahren rightly
blasted Michelle Obama for claiming her husband, Barack Obama, was a great president.
Kidding.
Tomi Lahren is a right-wing mouthpiece with the depth of a Dixie cup.
Barack Obama, indeed, was a great president and Michelle Obama a great first lady.
Here's Tomi's tweet:
Here's Kathy Griffin's response to Tomi:
Let's take a look back at some of what was accomplished during the Obama administration. You know, as Democrats like to focus on, the facts.
Barack Obama is officially one of the most consequential presidents in American history
He signed into law a comprehensive national health insurance bill, a goal that had eluded progressive presidents for a century — and built it strong enough to withstand assaults from the Supreme Court and avoid repeal from a Republican administration. He got surprisingly tough reforms to Wall Street passed as well, not to mention a stimulus package that both blunted the recession and transformed education and energy policy.
He's put in place the toughest climate rules in American history and signed a major international climate accord. He opened the US to Cuba for the first time in more than half a century, and reached a peaceful settlement to the nuclear standoff with Iran.

The Republicans will, no doubt, continue their cognitive dissonance, but that doesn't change reality. Barack Obama's record is exemplary. He accomplished much for this country and did so with great dignity and statesmanship.
Republicans' continual denial of reality and the accomplishments of the Obama administration are the last gasps of the Republican cabal of racists, nazis, bigots, hypocrites, sexists and frauds. The Republicans have done nothing for this country. They've done only for themselves and their donors. They are partisan cranks and abject failures as public servants. Their moans and cries denying this do not change that fact.
