Obama adopted out-of-control conservative policies and is trying to balance things out again.

While you would disagree with any Democrat, it's this balance that has kept us strong all these years. So, clearly, Obama is doing very well.
I don't see the same way you do. This is the way I see it: Bush created the largest government ever, started the socialist idea of the bailouts, and tried to give amnesty to illegals along other liberal ideas. He did that in eight years, then Obama too over and tripled the bailouts, continued big government just the same as Bush, and has outspent Bush four to one in less that one year in office. He will give amnesty to illegals, will screw-up the little health care workers now have, tax us to death during the day, and spend it all night.

Ummm... read what is written next time before "LYAO".

I didn't say Obama is conservative. I said he is using liberal policies to fix out-of-control conservative policies since 2000.

It's impossible to judge at this time. Obama's been president for 6 months now and people are comparing him to Jimmy Carter

What's funny is this is coming from the same people who said we should take a few years to judge Bush

Wow.

Thirty-two percent (32%) now say the country is heading in the right directionThat’s down eight points from the 2009 peak and the lowest since February.

Every poll shows to complete failure boy going to hell fast.

As of today only 29% of American approve of his job while 36% DISSAPPROVE of his performance.

Guess the golden boy idiot is not doing so darn well after all.

Stay tuned, it will get worse for him and then you will find an excuse.

Carter couldn't control the sepnding and cut cost because his party would agree to it. But he didn't tripe teh deficit either in 6 months and propose ven more huge spending.He certainly wasn't willing to spend the future of ypoung people in thsi country by putting them in the position of owing billions and facing cuts like never has been seen.
