By what metric to you come to that determination?

When Mr. Obama was inaugurated the country was in the midst of economic collapse -- 800,000 jobs were being lost each month; stocks had dropped in half; the deficit before he stepped one foot into the White House was already projected at $1.2 trillion, we were embroiled in the Iraq War, and so on.

Now, the stock market is making new highs; unemployment is fading; the deficit has been cut in half; the Iraq War is over.

Compared to Bush, who took surpluses and turned them into deficits; started two unneeded wars; killed millions of jobs, etc. Obama is a Lincoln.

Really people, anyone with common sense would question any news media that claims "anyone" is perfect. If they are so busy licking his shoes how truthful can his reporting be.

Oh and look who he is talking to.... Keith Elliott.

0bama has admitted to breaking the law by smoking dope, using cocaine and other drugs. He just never got caught.

Make up your mind, how can you vilify Bush for deficits and give 0bama a complete pass for his? At this point in Bush's second term he ran up $2 trillion in debt, 0bama has run u $6 trillion. I ask you, what the hell did we get in return for adding $6 trillion in new debt -nothing good. Unless a fifty year high in US poverty and 15 million new Food Stamp recipients is a good thing.

0bama did inherit a poor economy, and all he has done is exacerbate things, his actions and policies have caused this 0bama recession to drag on and on. When the democrats took over control of both house of congress in 2007, 0bama was a senator for two years. Every bill, every law Bush signed was voted on and passed by 0bama and the dems and placed on Bush's desk for his signature.

Bible also teaches that we must have wise discernment (Matthew 10:16). God gives us certain standards that we must take into account when it comes to giving our time and money to others. When the Bible tells us we are to help others, the purpose is never for us to do this to the point where it becomes detrimental.

It's good to do what we're able to do, but 2 Thessalonians 3:10 also reminds us, "If a man will not work, he shall not eat."

There are people who want to live an irresponsible lifestyle with absolutely no accountability. So there must be limits; we will help someone with a need, but if we see that it's become a chronic life pattern, it's wrong for us to continue to encourage that. It's very harmful to others to contribute to their indolence, laziness, and lack of effort. The old saying "Give a man a fish and he eats for a day, teach him to fish and he eats for a lifetime" is very true. As long as we see that someone is sincerely making an effort, we should be there to support him in whatever way God leads.

Obama wants to continue giving to people that will not take care of themselves therefor those people become dependent on the government and will keep them in office.

We took an arrogant community organizer, who never wore a uniform, and made him Commander-in-Chief. A guy, who had never had a real job, worked on a budget, or led anything more than an ACORN demonstration, and we made him "Beloved Leader" of the United States TWICE !!!

Low qualifications voted in by low expectation people.

I don't know what has happened to Chirs, but he has gone from a main stream, slightly left TV host, who about 15 years ago was somewhat fair and objective to a left wing, out of touch host. Could he be worried about ratings and doing whatever necessary to try and bring them up? I know some of us, do get our information from both sides, we watch him on occassion, but it gets harder all the time. bnnd na

So I ask. Do you consider Chris Matthews leg humping Obama can never do anything wrong, call anyone who disagrees a racist factual reporting? MSM is afraid of losing their white house credentials.
