Did it ever occur to you that you could have blinders on because you support Obama no matter what?

It works two ways.

Nope, no blinders. Just because I support a president doesn't mean I adore him. Big difference. I have the ability to see him & analyze his mannerisms in an unbiased manner, but it seems perhaps you cannot. As I've said, I see no evidence of narcissism & I see that there's no evidence being provided either.

I thought it sounded a bit inflated too.

Funny thing. During the interview he whined like nobody else about how no other president has ever inherited problems. I laughed a little. Victim mentality doesn't even escape the left when they make it to the White House.

Greetings.

Indeed the left's acute mindset of "Victim Mentality" is not only alive and well among these ranks of childish "Whiners" but also appears to be
unfortunately increasing on an unprecedented scale.

It is quite laughable and yet pathetically sad to witness these seriously inept folks running amuck while they occupy the highest political offices in our beloved nation .

It is absolutely no surprise whatsoever regarding the POTUS rating himself with a higher score than the vast majority of Americans would ever give him due a most unremarkable performance thus far !

The sickening part of the entire matter is that the President in all likelyhood may actually believe that he deserves a comfortable passing
score ... afterall it has to be the fault of someone else if America is actually experiencing one of it's most dire crisis in 75 years !

It truly appears that these poor miserable folks shall never escape from their vindictive and repetitive use of the "Blame Someone Else & Or I'm A Poor Victim" Schemes !

It is a most frightening prospect to ponder just what type of effective leadership these paltry elected politicians are capable of rendering should the U.S. face a most threatening global crisis !

America needs the best and the brightest folks we have to effectively lead this great nation. What we have in place now represents perhaps the very worst ever experienced in the history of this beloved land !

The brightest? Did you vote for Bush? He was named the worst president you guys had.
Actually, didn`t you experience the worst nightmare in your history during Bushs first year of being a president?

A different thing: What most on CD don`t understand is that the crisis is affecting every nation worlwide, at least the Western countries.
I know for some of you there is only the US and other countries don`t matter, but we all have to struggle to go through these times that are the results of the financial/economic crisis from 2007!
What some of you expect is a fast recovery, and that is not possible.
The economy takes baby-steps to get where it once was.
Japan had to suffer under a depression for a decade!!!

Overall: C-.

Second 100 days measurably worse than the first 100.

CNN: Second 100 Days (http://reportcard.cnn.com/ - broken link)

I give him a D and that is being generous right now.

B+ ????

That's what happens when we let the kids grade their own papers.

You really don't see it do you?

That's very troubling indeed (but not surprising).

Don't forget his record breaking use of the media to get on TV - of course he must have ALL of the networks broadcasting his pressers and woe is be to the ONE station (Fox Network, not Fox News) that chose to not broadcast his colossal waste of everyone's time.

And obama didn't learn a damn thing from the mistakes they made as well as our own recessions/depression.

He is making the same mistake the Japanese made and FDR made - spending your way out and growing the government is NOT the way to a recovery.

Well then what is the way? Do you have a solid realistic solution? I don't & quite frankly, I don't think anyone does.
