Is there a more glaring example of how Barack Obama would be absolutely unworthy of his campaign promise of Hope N' Change?

What in world could be more illustrative of the worthless Presidency to come then that of a man whose own judgment and wisdom would allow him to hire a tax cheat to run the Department of Treasury?

Is there a more damning example of the worthless Administration about to be foisted onto the American people?

If so, please share! I'm sure there are plenty of insights. This one though, in my view, is Foresight 20/20.

What's your favorite Obama action that foreshadowed the crappy Administration that we have today?

We all should have known it because he we inexperienced. Nothing like cutting your political teeth on the highest office. Usually we use lower offices as training grounds and see what they do there so we can vote on track record. I have no idea why America chose to bypass that this time but we're paying for it and will continue to pay for it for several more years.

We've never had an inexperienced president before"


The Great Decider didn't even know where some countries were on the map.

Obama's legacy yes...but it's far deeper than that. If Wall Street hired Geithner, as you suggest, then that means that Barack Obama flubbed twice: 1) Allowing Wall Street to influence him after 2 years of railing against Wall Street, 2) Hiring a tax cheat.

George W. Bush was a the first President to hold an MBA, was a business owner, a CEO, and a two-term Governor. Your assertion does not hold up to the facts.

you are right, obama is better at spending tons of money for nothing, and adding regulations willy nilly in an effort to ruin the economy. he is also fabulous at doing things that are quite unconstitutional as well as breaking the laws congress passed and he signed.

i knew what obama was about the minute he started talking about "economic and social justice" back in 2007. i knew then he would be a horrible president, and he didnt disappoint me.

Twice would be a very low count.
