I wouldn't be surprised if every President since Eisenhower hasn't sung some variation of that same tune...

Obama's been working quietly, behind the scenes, on a lot of topics that the Republicans have neglected or ignored in the past.

He has deported more illegal aliens that any President before him.

He is working feverishly to build a NATO-type organization in SE Asia as a containment for the PRC, something to replace the old SEATO that other Presidents have neglected.

He is fighting a very effective war against ISIS in the Middle East, without committing large numbers of US troops. A war he is winning, in case no one's noticed.

He has rebuilt the US economy, which is now the strongest in the world.

He has rescued the auto industry, and they have repaid their debt to the US government, with interest.

Except for the debt we had to go into to rescue the economy, he has cut government spending and taxes substantially.

He has attempted a robust expansion of infrastructure investment to create jobs and rebuild the nation, which has been frustrated repeatedly by the Republicans because they know it would be of great benefit to the nation, its workers, and Obama's reputation.

He has brought millions of previously uninsured people into the health insurance system.

He has worked on a major nuclear treaty with Iran, one that will allow careful and detailed inspection of their nuclear program, rather than allowing them to work on it in secret.

Has he done everything he set out to do, or needed to do? Certainly not, no President has ever done that. Has he made mistakes? Probably, every President has.

Now, exactly what has the Republican-dominated Congress accomplished in the last 8 years?

QED.
