I am trying to be fair and give this guy a chance but it is unbelievable! Just about anything he has done or proposed so far has been characterized by controversy or a total lack of judgement and common sense. 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?

There's a lot of deflection going on in his administration. If there was ever any doubt about that, it was completely removed when he claimed that Rush L. was the face of the (R) party...

The guy's an illusionist, and like any good illusionist, he's keeping your attention over here <-- while doing something you're not supposed to see over there -->

Change? Nah. Obama's just "more of the same" Washington politics. I say we oust the whole lot starting next year with every single member of Congress.

Barry is an idiot, but we knew that in November.

He is in way over his head.

They have no shame. Look what happened to the investigation of the obvious voter fraud. Poof, it just disappeared. One by one, red states turned blue. Black Pathers were on the steps blocking people from voting and nothing was eer heard of it again.

Now they will do their "magic" with the census so they get more funding and representation in the "urban" areas.

Looks like the Acorn, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and the Black Panthers will have work again.

It amazes me what these people will do for votes. It's all about the power.

And this is the most ineffective Congress as well. Vote them all out. We really need to get these term limits going. Barney Frank has been feeding at the trough for 25 years. He was in charge of oversight for financial regulation. Now he acts like everyone else is the problem because HE wasn't doing his job! Vote him out!

Obama is doing a great job!

Gobama!!

For everyone else, you are simply disappointed that he can't right the wrongs of the previous administration in 57 days.

Funny how this harsh criticism wasn't placed on the George W administration....talk about the real smoke and mirrors/bait and switch.

If you're in his district in Massachussetts, you can do exactly that. If you aren't, you can continue to whine about him.

Exactly. Even O'Reilly now concedes he can't yet judge Obama, and he's gotten a LOT of good done in a very short period of time always looking out for the welfare of the people. It's only the naysayers who will find fault and ignore all the positives.

People all over America are outraged over Obama and his policies:
Taxpayers Gather To Protest Spending, Taxes, Growing Debt

What did ignorant Democrats think a fraud thug in the White House would do? Oh yeah, they thought Bam-Bam would pay their mortgage and fill up their gas tanks... What a bunch of idiots! I had no idea even fraud Obama could destroy America so quickly!
