C. Pretty much what you would expect. No gigantic gaffs, no gigantic successes. Like BC alluded to he pretty much just jumped onto the bridge and steered the ship in the same direction its been going for 30 years.

ahhh, yes... well, there might be a few translations one could make here. Let me take the liberty. Obama's presumed soul, soulful display, is challenged by questions on the, "courage of his convictions". Of course, the counter to the question could be... could be... that some degree of Obama's failings in being able to carry out certain goals reflects back on his facing an obstructionist, Tea-Party fueled/driven, GOP 'party of NO'.

or... one could fall back to a described comment from the Killer's Flowers who is said to have indicated the line, "I've got soul but I'm not a soldier", implies one has a religious "soul" but is not a Christian "soldier". Which I guess would be a good fit since Obama is a Muslim - badum-CHING!

On his three-year report card Obama would have the same marks for bowling, singing and being President.

Bloomberg News does a great job outlining Obama's lies and failures. It's no wonder he's relying on being "cool."

Effort: C
Results: B
Ideas: A
Works well with others: A
Works well on his own: D


Barry's attitude towards completing his projects has declined ever since some have started telling him "no". Rather than putting in additional hard work, this seems to have disheartened him, and he has been putting in less effort as a result.

Heckuva job Barry!

Obama sets the single month deficit record in the history of the country. Keep up the good work. :rolleyes:

Govt. sets record deficit in February

The federal government recorded its worst monthly deficit in history in February, according to a preliminary report Wednesday from the Congressional Budget Office that said the deficit in fiscal year 2012 is already more than half a trillion dollars.

The nonpartisan agency projected the government will run a deficit of $229 billion in February, the highest monthly figure ever. The previous high was $223 billion a year ago, in February 2011.

Could Obama be headed for the first ever 2 trillion dollar deficit?

I would agree with you, if that was even close to true.

yah its not like the GOP refused to raise the debt ceiling, until it looked like America wouldn't pay its debts causing investor fears and almost triggering another recession, made a last minute deal with the president getting and quote their leader "almost everything they wanted" and now are going back on the deal because of their hate for the president or anything. Wait that is going right now.

Shady thinks the president controls all that spending :lol: And he appears to also be blaming him for 30 years of Americans and their government consuming more than they produce. :D

Look at the utterly moronic congress... Remember all those cuts that were supposed to happen, otherwise large across the board funding cuts to both social programs and the military would be triggered?

Well the idiots in the democrat and republican party didnt agree on any spending cuts, but they DID agree to remove the trigger :lol: :lol: :lol:

Cuts are coming, or at least they were because of the debt limit deal. Now Republicans don't like those cuts they are going back on their word. Even Republicans are fighting against cuts, the only one who wants cuts is Shady. He just doesn't know it yet he still thinks Republicans are for cuts. He'll get his talking points soon and change his tune and say the cuts aren't the right type of cuts now even though Republicans agreed to them less then a year ago.

He had what every president dreams and drools for when he was elected. A majority in the House, a majority in the Senate, and an approval rating that was sky high. In only 2 years he lost the goodwill and lost the House majority which was the stupidest thing he could have done.

Now he has exactly what the voters want him to have, and it's his own fault. He made that bed fair and square, and he can damn well lie in it until he gets voted out next fall.

Welcome truth custom-made, come in and have some lemonade

Reality will re-adjust while we evade...
