Yeah, yeah, he only doubled down on detaining and torturing without trial, dragged the Afghanistan war/occupation on for another decade, and posthumously reclassified civilian drone-strike deaths as "combatants".

A million times a negative is still a negative.

You seem to have read what I typed and believe it and yet somehow still believe Obama didn't take us in a positive direction away from that barbarism. You're insane.

Did he? Cus it kinda seems like he kept all the "barbaric" tools on the table, used quite a few of them himself, and now we're left with Trump handling all of them. You consider that a positive direction?
