The only thing he's done so far that I agree with is letting federal money be spent on embryonic stem cell research. I'll give him props for that, but that's about all.

For everyone else, you are simply disappointed that he can't right the wrongs of the previous administration in 57 days.
If you can claim that he's doing a "great job" in "57 days", then others can claim that he's not, in that same 57 days.

Can't have it both ways, cali.

As for that "great job" he's doing, what, exactly, has he accomplished that's "great'? Please be specific.

So, he isn't white and he isn't a neocon and Rush says bad things about him. He must be all messed up.

And in your attempt to be "fair" you start daily threads whining about his every move.

Just about anything he has done or proposed so far has been characterized by controversy
Tough decisions are always controversial. That's what presidents are for.

or a total lack of judgement and common sense.
You forgot to add the all-important modifier, "In my opinion" to that last phrase.

This whole idea of hiring ACORN to do the Census is just ABSURD. I don't think the guy is DUMB but sometimes I wonder if he is doing all this stuff on purpose just to create even more controversy or maybe deflect attention from more important issues?
You're acting like this is some sort of major issue. Tell us exaclty how big a role and what part ACORN will play in the 2010 census.

I agree
term limits need to be here now.

Funny how this harsh criticism wasn't placed on the George W administration....talk about the real smoke and mirrors/bait and switch.
What exactly has Barry done in the last 57 days that you consider a great job? I mean aside from reading most of his teleprompter speeches eloquently.
