Grade Obama

[Patrick Henry]

Grade President Obama's performance since the inauguration and his ability to uphold his promises.

I give Obama a 'C' so far. While I’m happy he is restoring America's image aboard I am not happy that US troops are still in Iraq and he wants more in Afghanistan. Also he has made some pretty bad picks in his cabinet.

F. No middle class tax cuts. He lied to get elected.

[Inverted]

With all the problems Obama had on his plate when he came into office I think he is doing a great job. Please give him time.

I have to agree with you. I like Obama but when I heard him say that the middle class tax cuts will not be part of the package I knew he failed. Middle Class tax cuts were one of his biggest issues he ran on and to not include them is insane.

Which President in the last 50 years hasn't?

That still doesn't excuse any of them. They need to be held accountable for their lies. In my opinion Obama has been ok so far, although its way to early to grade him. His plans need time to see how they work out.

FYI.....Obama wanted the tax cuts, it was congress that took it out of his proposal. He can only do so much, it still need to be passed.

I'll give him a 'F' because of his bank bail-outs. But how others have said his plans need more time to see how they work out.

I didn't say we should excuse them. If anything, we need to make these lies more public and bring them to the media's attention.

Yes. Its like the 999 people that break the law and the one person who doesn't. Should that person break the law like everyone else, or should he follow the others and break the law. It isn't right for presidents to continually lie to get elected. Sadly, it is a normal part of the election process. Lies and exaggerations are just another tactic candidates us to get your vote.

I think Obama has done a good job so far. I like how he is trying to improve America's image aboard. That is very important.

I agree. Obama is finally bringing some common sense to US Foreign Policy.

Well over 2 million people have voted on MSNBC and 40% are giving him an F. PWO members must like him him because so far he's running around 17%.

Never believe polls. Don't forget 92% of americans supported Bush at one point, then look what happened.
