What grade would you give to Obama's first term?

Note this poll will close in 24 hours.

In full disclosure, my grade was C -.

I didn't list a "D" grade because of being limited to 10 choices.

77. Anyone who didn't choose B or higher - the problem is with YOU, not with the President.

No offense really, but if you look at how much the President has accomplished from where he started, it's miraculous how far we've come in the past 3 years. Especially in relation to how other President's have done in our lifetimes.

If you can't see that, then you have unrealistic expectations of what the President is capable of and what his duties are as President.

President Obama is on track to be the greatest President of our lifetimes but I understand that most people like that aren't recognized until well after their accomplishments are fully realized.

Holy crap this is nuts, look at how far we have come in the past 3 years, yeah unemployment is still up, gas prices through the roof, no longer have a tripple (shout out to Nads) A credit rating, anyone who thinks there has been an ounce of progress is insane.

We would be better off if Barry had done like he did in Illinois and in the Senate and just vote "present".

Actually, he was "present", at golf courses, fund raisers, pep rallies, and vacation spots around the world.

I shutter to think what kind of damage he could have done if we really WAS present!

I'd give him a "FO", for "F'N OFF"

Yes, he will still blame Bush. He is still repeating the same rhetoric about the mess he was left with. This years slogan is going to be: "A mess so bad that it couldn't be cleaned up in one term".. Him and the douchenozzles will blame Bush for the next 30 years. Although they aren't still blaming Jimmy Carter for the mess he caused in the 70's. Go figure.

Let's see:
Unemployment massively rising, gas prices going through the roof, he pisses off our nation's allies while simultaneously sucking up to our nation's enemies, he badmouths his own country in front of said enemies, he demonstrates enormous hypocrisy between his words and his actions as he parties it up like a king on exorbitant vacations all the while regularly giving long- winded speeches about how regular Amerians need to make sacrifices in their lifestyles (A good leader is supposed to set a good example for his people, and practice what he preaches; Obama is an immense failure at this), he is quite deliberately turning the American people against each other through his promotion of class warfare and race- baiting (And this is the president who was supposed to be the Great Uniter who'd bring the country together), and demonstrates supreme arrogance and narcissism in everything he does.
I'd say a solid D- for him.

Habitat is a feel-good waste. The only purpose it serves is as a deductible donation.

Like other moonbat feel-good programs, it tries to give something to deadbeats.

Deadbeats invariably accept, suck out some short term comfort, destroy, and move on.

Has anyone ever done a survey of Habitat houses five years after completion?

After five years of zero maintenance and zero homeowner responsiblity they're no better than the hovels they replaced.

I have to disagree.

The habitat for Humanity requirements are such that the people that have received them,around here anyway, have not only maintained their homes but have done the things necessary to improve their lot in life. Such as returned to school, gotten better employable skills through further education etc.

The habitat homes built around here have revitalized the parts of the community they have been built in.

Not Utopia, just a community that so far has had considerable growth in the last two decades and have been able to maintain that small town feel and appeal by setting standards and enforcing them.

You don't want to mow your grass the city will but it'll cost you $200 , don't want to repair that fence the city will get someone to repair it for XXX amt, about three times what it should cost.

Some say builders own the town because there always seems to be someone in construction or related to construction on the school board and/or city council and associated commissions. Others say if that's the case we need more of them on boards and councils etc.

Obama has Carter beat cold for worst POS POTUS. The debt accumulated under Obama vs Carter is reason enough. Obama is working on doing just as bad of a disaster of Muslim foreign policy as Carter. Carter tossed Iran to the Muslim terrorists, and so far the Kenyan has tossed Egypt and Libya to the Muslim terrorists. Obama will win this category outright the day Iran has a functional nuke weapon.
