Grade the President - 2 1/2 years in

[RDD_1210]

What do you give Obama for his over all performance?

Overall, I gave him a C. With the mess he inherited, coupled with the new conservative rookies he gets to deal with in the House, he has managed to still get some things accomplished. Had he not engaged in shady backroom deals during the Healthcare overhaul debate, not sent more troops to die in Afghanistan, not gotten us involved in Libya, and not caved to the right on extending the Bush tax cuts for the wealthy, his grade probably would have been higher.

Snore.

Hey VAYank, are you going to say this very same thing when the next President is voted into office? That he/she inherited a mess from Obama?

You may be tired of it but that doesn't make it untrue.

I gave him an A.

Not because I truly believe that but simply to counteract the ridiculous amount of F's the kooks on this site gave him.

In reality I would give him a C+/B-

No Shit Sherlock!

Let's wait and see how things look when this comes to pass in 2016. Long ways off, you know?

Exactly the response I was expecting from you. Stop being so damn predictable! I look forward to your posts in the days following the 2012 election.

Gave him a B. He did a lot of things right, but I had to downgrade him due to his insistence to work with the GOP, when they are actively trying to weaken the economy and get him out of office.

Unless the GOP finds someone, anyone, electable by the country as a whole, and not someone simply playing to the far right, I can assure you that you will NOT be looking forward to my posts following the election.....

Under Roosevelt, the unemployed got a New Deal. Under Obama, the employed get a raw deal.

I gave him an A.

In reality I would give him a C+/B-

1) We are still in Iraq
2) GITMO is still open
3) The world likes us no more than they did pre Obama
4) Healthcare required a "bypass" tactic to get passed
5) Healthcare is split 50-50 as to whether or not it is constitutional
6) We are involved in a NEW military activity
7) Unemployment went above 8% despite his assurances that it wouldnt
8) THe stimulus did ntohing even close to what he promised
9) He did NOT review every bill with a scapel before signing as he promised
10) Deficit is at 14 .4 trillion
11) He IS a citizen and was able to finally prove it (thus why I gave him a D)

Exactly where do you see him worthy of a C+/B- ?

A++ and anyone who doesn't think so is racist and unAmerican!!!

Yes, because letting people and companies have control over their lives and property will weaken the strong economy Obama's socialism has brought us! By George, I think you've got something here!

 

[American Legacy]

Curious how many people give him a "D" (as opposed to "F") only because of the bin Laden killing?

Ryan's "Budget", which every Republican supports, would add more to the debt than our current path. At the same time, Ryan's "Budget" would also do away with Medicare and replace it with a plan that would have seniors paying their entire SS check and then some to get medical care. From an economic stand point, that's just bad. People with less money to spend on consumer goods will drag the economy down.

And this is the GOP plan.

 

[Zander]

He earns a solid D minus. He's by far the worst POTUS in my lifetime. Worse than Carter. He managed to have Bin Laden caught on his watch so he narrowly escapes an F.

But, the plan would free up more money for their friends in the Military Indutrial Complex, in turn creating more private sector jobs, allowing us to build more weapons, to help us invade more countries and .........

Please explain how Ryans plan would add more to the debt.

I am well aware that the left wing actors are saying this without explaining....just saying it

But since you opted to regurgitate it, please explain how you know this as fact.

If people like me were actually the biggest problem our country had, we'd be in much better shape.

The fact that he started the ball rolling with healthcare is alone enough for me to give him that grade. Many of the reasons you cite are why I didn't rate him higher.

Don't you know? Cutting spending will cause more debt. Much like global warming will cause an ice age.

These people are insane.
