Is Obama doing a good job?

Yes or no? My opinion; is no. Obama hasn't done much to be proud of. He has signed a few bills, and is trying to get this health care plan passed but he hasn't done much else.

I don't agree with everything he does, but he is my Commander-in-Chief and I am going to support him weather I like him or not.

Re: Is Obama doing a good job?

He is a failure. He has done no good and much harm. He is an embarrassment to this country and to the Oval Office.

The sooner he vacates the Oval Office and slides back into ignominious irrelevancy the better it will be for this country.

Re: Is Obama doing a good job?

I think he has done more good than bad, but has made some pretty serious mistakes. Tax cheat in the cabinet, stimulus passed too fast, and has things that don't belong in it, rushing health care plan when now is not a good time for the added expense are things I really don't like.

Re: Is Obama doing a good job?

I think he's done pretty good overall. I'd like him to be slightly more liberal on homosexual issues (specifically, repealing DADT and a firm stance in favor of gay marriage), but I like a lot of the stuff he's done.

How does one define "Good?"

Re: Is Obama doing a good job?

I think Obama's doing good, at least as well as I expected him to so far given the huge problems he was faced with from day 1.

I just love it when people say, "oh, poor Obama he had so much to deal with from the start, poor him." (not a direct quote from you or anyone else for that matter), and they blame nothing on him.

Then as soon as Bush gets elected 9/11 happens and everyone blames him for everything including the death of American soldiers.

This isn't about Bush at all, but just that people don't blame Obama for anything that he's done except for a few key conservatives (Rush Limbaugh, etc.)

Re: Is Obama doing a good job?

In the overall scheme of things he has done poorly in my opinion. That being said, he has made a few good calls and handled a few situations well. I am undecided but lean towards no more heavily than yes. I will say this, it's been under a year and I don't like what I see overall, but his term isn't up yet so I will reserve final judgement till at least the next congress.

I agree.

I don't expect Obama to do anything ground breaking on the economy, other then level it off (as any President should), but I do expect him to get America's foreign policy out of the ditch that Bush drove it into. He's got charisma and social skills which are great for the PR side of America.

So Bush got our foreign policy into a ditch? Huh, okay. So tell me why our allies are still sticking with us?

Should we befriend the nations that hate us? I agree in making friends with them if we can, but if they allow people to live in their country that fly planes into our buildings and try to kill Americans, and they do NOTHING about it.... why should we make allies?
