Grading Obama: First 100+ days of Obama

So...you're suggesting that we grade on the curve now? Holy christ!!!! In other words, because he loused up, nobody could do better??? Kinda of presumptuous, don't you think? Who's to say that another person...any person...would have had a better approach to this economic implosion we're experiencing. Do you not realize that Chrysler is walking out on almost 800 dealers? In effect killing nearly 50,000 jobs in one fail swoop? And now, GM is skipping along behind them, prepared to do the same thing? HOW THE HELL IS THAT PROGRESS????

BILLIONS were wasted on those two companies alone and we were assured that their bailout would basically "SAVE" the auto industry from disaster. Well....ta da!!! Talk about a magic trick!!! He really pulled that furry lil' rabbit out of his hat didn't he?

No...this man is out of his comfort zone where the politics are concerned. Don't get me wrong...he's GREAT on the oral exam...just as long has it's an open book test and he can read the answers.

You should be greatful that you're getting the passing grades you're getting for this clown.

Limbaugh or no Limbaugh, he's not passing on many subject in my grade book. In other words, he's already failing as president.

No he deserves a better grading because he was the only one who came up with a solution, the other idiots (republicans) only stood by watched and said NO. They were probably thinking what Limbaugh said out loud "I hope he fails", so they could save their policies of failure for the next election.

Saving Chrysler and GM is progress in the sence that we re not destroying the whole economy, their failure would have kickstarted the 2nd great depression (depression is 10% unemployment or more). A price that is much lower then what would have been payed by all of us if we got into a great depression. You need to look at the big picture, not looking at the big picture is what got us into this mess (banks that are only looking for their own profits, while they are unaware that their greed has almost killed the moneycow they were milking) and it sure isn't going to get us out of this mess.


Again, I have to ask: How is it that you're grading a SOLUTION that hasn't yet worked?[/COLOR]

Phrases like, "laying the ground work," "setting the stage for an issue," "setting priorities," and "taking the temperature of people." are what Obama is doing. It's called PRESIDENTIAL POLITICS. Obama has done a good job avoiding land mines like DADT and gay marriage that Republicans effectively exploit. It was by inflaming gay issues that Bush won his second term. Obama will slip these issues into the legislative mix. The MAIN ISSUE is still the ECONOMY that George Bush and his Wall Street buddies destroyed.

Guessin' that means "transparency" has a curtain around it, huh?

IOW, he's using a lot of platitudinous phrases, that make his mind-numbed lemming followers fill in the blanks with their representations of what those vapid phrases mean, so he can't be wrong.

Sucker.

well, if you cant dazzle with brilliance, you gotta baffle with bullshit

that seems to be the Obama plan
 
He has stabilized our economy????????? WHAT??? Did you not see another 650,000 jobs lost this month????? You call that stabilized, I sure don't. We are in the worst downward spiral I have ever seen in my life and it ain't gonna get better any time soon.:cuckoo:
 
By 2010, we will have double digit interst rates double digit unemployment rates and double digit inflation. Assuming of course Benanke has any balls at all.

He promised transparency and we got what we got. He’s giving us some transparency. Just imagine how much we would know if he not giving us any. :eusa_whistle:

Well, I guess there are two things forgotten here. Both would be good reminders in Poly Sci 101. First, the issue is timing. In this case President Obama having the sense to know when to make a political move, and knowing how to set it up. Obama is running a country, and is in this for a win. 'Venting sour grapes' about the last election is all Conservative Republicans have. They always complain, and when they run out of complaints, they make things up.

Second, while the economy caused Americans to run around in desperation, Obama talked to the experts, laid out a plan that Congress approved, and did something. Except for a lot of talk the Repubs had nothing to offer.

If Republicans don't like it, tough. They lost the election. We should shove it down their throats the same way Bush pushed his agenda on America in 2000.
