Tell me again why Barack Obama has been such a bad president? I’m not talking here about him as a tactician and communicator. We can agree that he has played some bad poker with Congress. And let’s stipulate that at the moment he’s falling short in the intangibles of leadership.
Jonathan Alterhttp://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-08-26/you-think-obama-s-been-a-bad-president-prove-it-jonathan-alter.html (http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-08-26/you-think-obama-s-been-a-bad-president-prove-it-jonathan-alter.html)
And the response:
“I want to know,†wrote a snippy Alter on Bloomberg.com, “on a substantive basis, why you think he deserves to be in a dead heat with Mitt Romney and Rick Perry and only a few points ahead of Ron Paul and Michele Bachmann in a new Gallup Poll. Is it just that any president -- regardless of circumstances and party -- who presides over 9 percent unemployment deserves to lose?â€

Wow,
Let me count the ways...
He rammed through a massive health care plan against the will of the people. He is thwarting every realistic effort by the states to control illegal immigration which they have to pay for with taxpayer dollars. He has alienated most all of our allies; particularly Israel. TARP was the wrong theing to do, instead we go trillions in debt to bail out both US and foreign banks who make bad decisions. He appoints a Supreme Court justice who has no regard for following the Constitution. He is a master at class warfare, attacking the sector that creates jobs. He has us in wars without congressional approval. He refuses to enforce any laws that would hurt the Black Panthers from accosting and intimidating voters.
How's that for starters?

He refuses to do anything about the illegals crossing our border.
He does not obey his oath of office, in that he fails to protect and obey the Constitution of the United States.
He will not release document to prove or disprove that he is a US citizen qualified to hold the office of president.
His school records are invisible, and he refuses to release them for scrutiny.
He allows his wife to spend our money at will, with no regard for his directives to we mere citizens to "eat your peas."

Thought I recognized the name. Alter is the same Obamite who as head editor of Newsweak ran a once-popular news magazine into the ground with his relentlessly-one-sided Democrat party line propaganda. Nobody wants to pay for propaganda masquerading as news coverage, especially when the masqerade is so poorly maintained.

I'll make it real simple, though I have no doubts that it'll sail clean over your head, Jonathan.
The previous holder of the title "Worst President Evah" only presided over the formation of ONE America-hating, terrorist spawning Islamofascist state.
Comrade Barry has presided over the formation of no less than FOUR America-hating, terrorist spawning Islamofascist regimes (Yemen, Tunisia, Egypt and now Libya).
