Why do you say that? He is truly the worst president in history and has no experience in the position.
He has never held a job in USA and is questioned as a socialist to destroy our country!

as was pointed out in another thread he has served two years. when he is out of office is the time for history to judge him. he has a long way to go to come close to the former president who most historians rank as the worst president. again you need to expand your horizons to truly see beyond your beck and hannity world

The war's are still going. Racial issues have been made worse, nothing has been done on the environment............If you voted for obama because you wanted to be part of history, hows that working for you?
I did not vote for him, but considering the fact that he helped pass many major bills, I'd say it has been a very productive presidency so far. I am not saying I like all the bills, but I think all can agree that not many presidents succeed in persuading the passage of so many major ones.

So passing major bills is a good thing to you, regardless of content?

Whether or not you and I agree with the bills is somewhat irrelevant, but yes, when presidents help pass major bills they believe in is a sign of them being productive because they are succeeding in what they set out to do.

If would be foolish to conslude that a president is not productive only because he is not passing bills YOU like.

Would you buy a glass of wine that's only half full? And still be pleased with yourself, or the bartender?

finn, I find your thinking very refreshing. it is nice to see that some people can get past the differences they have with an admin to see that they are truly working as hard as any other admin. no party or president can make everyone happy. [MOD CUT/off topic]

By the way, I didn't vote for Obama. I was 17 during the election. But if I could, I would have voted for Obama.
