Obama reminds me of Milli Vanilli
When I was growing up I was taught that if you criticize they way someone is working, you better be able to do a better job.
I honestly believe I could do a better job than Obama.
Of course you could. DO share how you would get legislation past the do-nothing Congress. Or are you assuming they wouldn't be a problem in your world.
He has been hell bent on the destruction of the country from day one ...
I think anyone who believes Obama's desire is to destroy America is a fool whose entire belief system is based on a false premise.
Can't grade him based on the rhetoric following the letter.
Also, I have no desire to leap into a lion's den at this point in time.
Same here. The rhetoric is too emotional.
I believe that Obama seriously miscalculated the degree of resistance he would face from Republicans and right wingers. He advanced in his career with the protection of institutions, colleagues, and social acceptance. He was unprepared for the "real world" of America outside of liberal cities and universities.
He is similar to many other "successful" Americans--their success often comes because they were helped by other connected individuals. He was wrong when he assumed that the world was similar to his peers. In modern politics, negotiation no longer works.
So what you're basically saying is that Barack Obama has spent a life time being rewarded with advancement because of the affirmative action cultures of liberal cities and universities and was completely unprepared for the job as President?
This is exactly why I pay no attention to anything you post. Obama could be saving your life by carrying you out of a burning building and you would be condemning him at the top of your lungs. You have a closed mind.F minus.

Really, care to elaborate on that premise? Explain to me how his policies and regulatory changes have stabilized the business climate and allowed businesses to make accurate long range forecast, which would allow them to hire and expand with confidence. Hell companies don't even know what maobamacare means because the rules keep changing. maobama has been very good at keeping the heel of government on the throat of business and thus on the economy as a whole and it's not being done by accident. You're the fool if you believe it is.
He gets an F. He ignores the Constitution, picks and chooses which laws to enforce, dictates legislation, changes legislation after it's been passed and signed into law. He plays judge, jury, and executioner. He is a narcissistic tyrant and no different than other tyrants throughout history. I have no doubt he would order the killing of his political opponents if he thought he could get away with it.

I obviously can't speak for g5000, but I think his point is not that what Obama has done is successful, but that the intent behind it isn't the destruction of the country.
There is a difference between having bad ideas about governance and wanting to destroy the nation.

I give him a B+
His naivety is his biggest weakness. Thinking you could work with this congress is a playful notion but Obama neeeded to re-calibrate his message when he got re-elected. I thought he had shed the "Audacity of Hope" mantra and saw these clowns in the House for what they really are but he was soon back to trying to buddy up to them.
Every now and then, the leader of any organization, team, group, fraternity, Boy Scout troop, soccer team, bacherorette party, nation, political party, union, hospital, department etc... has to throw an elbow and shock some people with an aggressive move.
It's like if Sasha and Mailia won't clean up their room. You punish them. The next time it happens, what would take place (at least with my cousins it did) was that one would clean up for the other; Jan cleaned up for Dean let's say (not their real names). Their father saw this and marched Dean into the room, emptied every drawer of clothing onto the floor and stood there as Dean folded them and put them back neatly.
You act irrationally to demonstrate a point. I truly think Obama doesn't understand that. I doubt he ever will.

Number 2 (Grade B to C). I believe he has made a sincere effort to do a good job despite the most obstructive House of Representatives in history.Okay,
This poll is anonymous and I would really like to see everyone participate. This is your appraisal of Obama and his job performance at year 5 of his Presidency. My hope is this poll will give a fairly clear indication of how USMB posters view Obama.
1. Grade A. He is a good guy who has done a very good job.
2. Grade B to C. He has been okay...but I still have some concerns.
3. Grade D I basically see him as a debonair con-man who is fairly inept.
4. Grade F He is an incompetent liar and cheat, who has done enormous damage to America.
Okay, this is America...let your opinion be heard!
The bottom line is that there is a huge difference between being an obstructionist and being a member of the loyal opposition. An obstructionist works against any attempt to move a country forward. They are a curse on a country. They offer the country NOTHING. A member of the loyal opposition works toward moving the country forward. They offer different ideas and viewpoints that lead to a better country. The loyal opposition provides balance to the government and the country.
