Obama Boasts In Britain: I Saved The World Economy As President
Breitbart.com ^ | 23 Apr 2016 | Charlie Spiering

President Barack Obama boasted of his legacy during a town hall in Britain, asserting that he single- handedly saved the world during his presidency.

“Saving the world economy from a Great Depression — that was pretty good,” Obama bragged when asked by a student in London what he wanted his legacy to be.

He recalled that when he visited London in 2009, the world economy was in a “freefall” because of irresponsible behavior of financial institutions around the world.

“For us to be able to mobilize the world’s community, to take rapid action, to stabilize the financial markets, and then in the United States to pass Wall Streets reforms that make it much less likely that a crisis like that can happen again, I’m proud of that,” he said.

Obama also touted his Iran nuclear deal as “something I’m very proud of” asserting that he successfully stopped their nuclear weapons program without going to war.

He griped that everybody forgot about his efforts in stopping the Ebola crisis, saving “hundreds of thousands of lives.”

“I think that I have been true to myself during this process,” Obama said, insisting that the things he said while running for office “matched up” with his presidency.

So exactly which round of golf was he playing when he personally saved the US economy ? We need to get this corrupt government completely out of our economy and our money.

First of all Bush started TARP...secondly, it was the Fed printing trillions of dollars and buying up US debt.

Fine, you want to live through the 1930s again, I think it was a bit better that we didn’t.

W bailed out the banks and it was the right thing to do.

The banks should have immediately been broken up, so that they were no longer "Too Big to Fail."

"Obama Boasts In Britain: I Saved The World Economy As President"

The British are very adept at portraying American presidents as buffoons in their movies. It's about time to start looking for the obama look-a-likes in thier future flicks and TV.

He loves himself more than anything else in the world. I’ll bet he takes a lot of “selfies”.
Every morning!
