I don't give 0bama credit for anything substantive.
BTW, what the hell are you talking about?   I did not quote anyone in my post that you responded to. Even in my first post, all I said was "It's simply amazing what the talking heads on TV think of 0bama." So again, what the hell are you talking about????

MIKE BARNICLE: I think he is stunned, given his gifts, at his inability to get anything really done in Congress. I think he's stunned by it.
JOE SCARBOROUGH: But he doesn't look at it as his inability. Jon, he is stunned that those that are fortunate enough to work with him are not helping him pass legislation to make history.
JON MEACHAM: I think it's, if you think about it from a biographical point of view, it's his thinking the system, and really the country, is not commensurate with his gifts. That's a harsh thing to say, but I have a feeling that in the dark night of the soul, that's what he feels. I think he thinks that this is a 18th-century constitutional republic that needs significant updating.
SCARBOROUGH: And let's just say, he sees elected leaders from across the country as a stumbling block. He sees democracy, he sees this version, as you say, this government as a stumbling block that's getting in the way of his greatness.

Obama doesn't know how to deal with the opposition party. he has done nothing but denigrate them: "get in the back of the bus", "republicans want dirtier air and dirtier water". He invited Paul Ryan to a speech and personally attacks him for his budget plan. Real classy. What an intelligent statesman!

Actually, the only worst thing here is your post. You say he's the worst president in history? Justify that statement. Grow a set, act like an adult and give some information to back up what you say.
The current sitting president has little to do with the state of our country. That would hold true if McCain were in office as well and in such a case, there would be little difference in the state of things. Obama inherited the recession. Have a look back at those in power before him for the cause.
Class has always been an issue in the US. Both W and Clinton dealt with taxation on the rich. Clinton raised it slightly and W lowered it slightly. Other than now it's being branded the class card, there's no difference.
Divided like never before? Based on what? Did Obama create a two party system? Did he create Fox News? The guy has had some pretty big successes. Somehow I doubt people will hold him up there with a Harding or a Pierce.

0bama was a community organizer, then was elected, uncontested as a state senator, and few months after an uncontested election for US senator, he ran for president. 0bama had no accomplishments to hang his hat on before running for president, being elected to office is not an accomplishment.

You sort of forget the education, experience as a lawyer and professor. He did win his last term unopposed, but you left out that it was largely because he won the first two elections by getting something like 80% of the vote.
You can also tag that together with 4 years in the senate. Being one of the younger presidents, he doesn't have as much experience as some had, but given his landslide victory, most people in the country disagreed with you.
Perhaps you should learn what you're talking about before you start typing next time. Otherwise, people might take you for a person of low intelligence.

Yes you did quote the same people, people who claim to know what Obama is thinking, even though they have no proof

Back that up. When have I done that, and to whom? Proof? You claim that Obama achieved his success because of affirmative action and he organzied hate groups. Besides your opinion, what proof do you have?

Prove it. How am I left? You post nothing but nonsense garbabe and your only proof is because you say so. When you are confronted you resort to personal off topic attacks. This is what independent thinking is all about??

I feel like it's failing me as well, welcome to the club Obama. The majority of Americans aren't progressive, hell they aren't even out of the 50's yet. It'll be awhile..........a long while. I give him A for effort though, I have dreams of America actually competing with other progressive countries one day instead of the mimics we've been doing of the 3rd world lately. It's embarrassing for those of us who are educated on more than the the 3rd passage of psalms.

I'm left of whatever the right are doing. Why the hell would anyone be proud of no health care, education? Why in the world would any sane person pick the right? I left the right because of so much ignorance and stupidity. It got maddening watching people screw themselves over and over and over.
