In that case, grade Obama accordingly. My post detailed the pros and cons of why I thought Obama was worth an A-. You disagree? Post your own grade and outline the reasons for it.
You could, except that I made no outline of political action, only what I wanted to see more of policy-wise. In addition, need I remind you that you took issue with my liberal position in the first place, and by making the statement "More liberal? Don't you guys care about what the rest of America likes? We're a center-right nation, and Obama is already starting to alienate independents and moderates, and don't expect a Tea Party-Party to take votes away from the GOP, because, according to liberals, the Tea-party IS the GOP..." - you'll excuse me if I find your belief that you are somehow more 'socially liberal' than myself a bit suspect.
I don't have a problem with your grade. I was just making a general statement about your policy goals in general, though I may have read into your words a little more than was necessary...:2razz:
My personal grade for Obama would vary upon the perspective I assume; purely ideologically speaking, I would give him an F, and say that he's an abomination of a President for many reasons; looking at it from a "pragmatic" perspective, I would give him a solid C; the status quo is still pretty much in place and in tact.
