I am not giving him a free pass. I grade him as I would every President. After 100 days he gets a B from me. He is doing alot in short time but I think he needs to push the agenda more aggressively. I would argue that he has not went left enough fast enough. But he is certainly better than the past 4 Presidents at this stage.. 100% better.
He has done a lot, alright. So far he has spent more money than all previous presidents put together, and moves us closer to socialism every day..
We can only hope the country can survive until we can boot him out of office..!
A B...? You must not pay attention to what s going on in the country.. The man is a total failure. He is making Jimmy Carter look good, and that's hard to do....!
BO wants to be King......
I didn't exactly see very many Republican types complaining about Bush, even those that disagreed with him did so under their breath. So is the left supposed to uphold some standard that the right is not?
You are guilty of the very thing you are complaining about.
I disagree there, it was mostly republicans who fought Bush on that disastrous immigration bill that he and the democrats tried ramming down our throats, along with John McCain.

Again with the massive generalizations. Not all people you label as liberals are compliant Obamanots. You diminish the actions of his predecessor to mere sneezes as if he was not accountable for the sad state this nation was in at the time of the last election.
Is it partisanship? Yes, blind partisanship and stupidity. Two qualities that permeate our population and do not know any boundaries. The same question must be asked "Why do people still defend Bush?" and the answer is the same two things: blind partisanship and stupidity.
If you refuse to see that these divisions are artificial and exactly duplicated on both sides of the aisle then you are doomed to continue them. Get out of this mental spin cycle and offer up a solution. Show America what you've got. Third party anyone? Constitutional Convention anyone? Ten million people peacefully sitting down on the streets of DC refusing to let the military goad them into violence? C'mon. We can do so much better than these repetitive arguments.
no one is giving him a free pass, for the most part we like what he is doing!
HUH, you like him thrashing the economy, spending $$ we do not have, bowing to the king of saudi oil, apologizing for other people that do not need nor want someone to apologize for them, scaring the living **** out of the people of NYC? The list goes on and on and on................
After all this man has done to the US..why do you still defend him? Is it partisanship? I really want to know. Bush would sneeze and you would demand he gets impaeched..he wears a blue tie and you were ready to string him up as a war criminal. Why not hold Obama to the same standard?
Obama is trying hard to fix the economic disaster and foreign policy messes that Bush left behind...
That is why we support him... most Americans do... you are in the minority...
Yes, Obama's approval rating is 54%, which is very low this early on.
He's been tracking almost exactly the same as Bush. Both track about 20% below Carter at the same point in their Administrations. It's possible it doesn't mean a whole lot.

I'm not that liberal in some ways and I'm not in love with Obama. I voted for one of his opponents in the primary. But I have no idea what you are talking about, "after all this man has done to the US"...after what, specifically?

You mean like going to Europe and South America and telling them how arrogant and selfish the American people are...you consider that helping America?
