I'm gonna go with a D.

I give him a D because he pushed through an admittedly flawed stimulus bill and made the general public believe that the country would be in deep trouble if it didn't pass. He seems to be more concerned with how the world views him rather than what kind of shape we're in. I don't like Clinton as SoS. i think she was a poor pick and she has a personal agenda she wants to cram through (anti-2A mainly). She's constantly lying, or at the minimum distorting the truth, about the Mexican drug cartel violence. And I don't trust Geithner as far as I can throw him. Holder, too.

The only reason I didn't give him an F is because I don't want to have him repeat this grade again (re-election).

Just an excuse....
Yes I have a graduate degree in Business. You?

Obama's mid term grade comes out in the fall of 2010. Was civics covered on your GED exam?

A Plus Plus. The ecomony is turning around. And he did it in a few short months. Amazing. He may be better than Clinton's ecomony. Time will tell. Just look at the difference between him and Bushie who took 1/3 of his office time on his ranch. Obama and his team have worked long and hard with many ideas. THe market believes in him now. At first it went south, but he even turned them around.
I see a lot of Texans here rating an F which is obvious jealousy as there native son Bushie screwed it up. Enjoy.

So you're telling me that Obama shows up, writes a few checks, bows to a king, and the economy is recovering because of that?

The Market is up because Wells Frago is showing a profit, as it should with all the taxpayer money we've givin out

Clintons economy was so great thanks to this thing called a dot.com bubble remove that and no one would know how well the economy would have done.

Obama went on vacation twice in his 1st mth in office and 2 more times his 2nd mth in office that is 4 in 2 mths. Watch out chances are hes going to break Bushs record.

Obamas ideas arent his they are Fdrs spending money , How much work did they put in other then saying hey lets do what Fdr did but bigger
lol You think the economy is up due to Obama

FFFFFFF.

As far as the stimulus bill, they should have just given every American a couple million and called it a day. Spending would have increased, people would have gotten out from under the debts. Banks would be happy becaue people were paying off their loans and so forth and so on. And it still would have cost less than the spending- I mean stimulus plan.

The POTUS should never have bowed to anyone. He didn't bow to the Queen. So why to anyone else? They are equals and he made it out to seem as if he were of lesser value. Way to make the leader of the free world look weak. It was ok for his wife to touch Queen Elizabeth which is a definite no-no, but it would have been wrong for him not to bow to someone?????? Am I missing something here or does that just seem rediculous? Yes it may have been his wife and not him, but she is his wife and that reflects on him. She is the first lady, she should have known better.

I don't feel he has done a great job at all. Where are they going to put the Gitmo detainees? No one wants 'em. Is he going to bring them onto US soil? Does anyone feel comfortable with having them in their backyard? Does anyone feel comfortable about letting the likes of the terrorists who were involved in 9/11 and the USS Cole bombing free? Well, too bad, because some have been and that is probably what they will do.

Enough ranting! :0)
