Obama's First Year You Rate

Ok its been one year now and I'd be interested to see how people here would rate the job he has done. Rate him from A to F add any comments and if you don't mind also say if you voted for him.

Master Yoda, is that you?

I'm not sure that you can rate how he's done based on results since it's only been a year. I'm not sure that would be fair. I guess you can rate him based on his actions over the last year. The country was and is mired in the worst economic times the majority of us have ever seen. Neither Obama or McCain could have "fixed" the ecomony in one year. It's going to be tough for many years to come and there's nothing Pres. Obama or anyone else can do about it. It's got to run it's course.

If I had to rate his actions, I'd say maybe a C.

Are we judging him based on god or human scale?

Are we judging him based on god or human scale?

Gods shall not be judged by.............mortals

B+ i guess.

I wish he would have been way more aggressive on health care and proposed a full national plan to start...he went weak from the beginning and now we're stuck w/ the same shitty private plans in all likelihood.

Here's what I think of Barry Satoro. :vomit:

Eh. I'd say C. Lots of talk. Not much aggression. Talk of bipartisanship and what seems to have developed is a bigger divide. He better do some magical tricks in the next 3 years or he can forget about running for a 2nd term.

If you grade him on his campaign principle of "Change" i think he has failed there pretty badly. I am unhappy with what he has done or attempted to do so far, but I don’t know think my political opinions should be rolled into how I grade him, so ill stay out.

But im posting because I was reading the pft comment section on Tim Tebow today and someone said this:

This is like deja vu. I mean Tebow failing is about as obvious as Obama being just the same kind of fail. Everyone's been calling it except for his blind supporters.

This makes perfect sense to me. People either broadly believe Tebow (Obama) is going to succeed and do and great job no matter if he does or not. Some of the Tebow fanatics will believe that if Tebow (Obama) ends up failing as QB (President) its because he was in the wrong situation, not because he wasn’t qualified or had the abilities to be QB in the first place. So if Tebow fails these people are ultimately going to believe that the team that drafted (voted for) Tebow turned out to have a bad supporting cast (cabinet), or there is a disparity or a rift in the ideals of the coaching (legislature) or ownership (constituency), which ultimately leads to Tebow’s failure. They’ll say Tebow never had a chance, and what he did considering his opposition was successful nonetheless.

Obviously the opposite is true. If Tebow ends up being great in the NFL the Tebow haters will say well it turned out that he came into a team that couldn’t go anywhere but up and everything fell into place for him.

My point being is people are going to be blind supporters of both Tebow and Obama. Unless either does something remarkable that both supporters and naysayers can find greatness in He’s going to fail and succeed in the respective eyes of His critic and fan.

How about F. Surprised nobody has talked about things he deliberatley lied about during his campaign. Mainly efforts to end the war, and yadda yadda yadda that he's now trying his damndest to extend indefinatley.
