1. I give him a C.

He's underachieving right now and has surrounded himself with advisors that aren't giving him the right advice. I hope he reads up on FDR and figures out why this man was elected to four terms.

2. Watch Thom everyday (TIVO) on Free Speech TV - during the radio commercial breaks is where it gets

interesting as the show continues on for the television (FSTV) audience.

3. C +

4. I give him a C...

If I graded on a curve, he'd get a B+ or better.

As I've said dozens of times here, I think he's playing it from the high road right now. I think he's doing what he said he would do and putting all his efforts into trying to get a buy-in from both sides of the aisle. What I expect to happen is that the next three years will be completely different, with Obama showing some muscle. He will then have the moral high ground to say, dudes, I tried to get you to play fair, but you refused, now go lay an egg.

A year ago we thought we were on the slippery slope to The Great Depression V2.0. Seems something happened to change that... or slow it down.

We were in the Titanic, going over Niagara Falls... and somehow, we didn't hit bottom... and the bow has turned to point up. We don't have much momentum, yet, but at least we didn't shatter on the rocks below!

We've witnessed several miracles... some still refuse to see, however.

5. So far...

I'd give him a C+, but if a graded on the curve (he has had it harder than most presidents) I'd give him a B+.

I do, however expect more out of him over time.

Of course Hartmann's listeners are no more mainstream American than DUers...

[Zodiak]

6. I gave him a C-

This year has been a real disappointment.

I hope you are right about the next three years, JuniperLea. I really do.

[MrObama]

7. B

8. C-

9. C- nt

10. C - simply bc he's not GWB... but man if its not one thing its another that he has yet to deliver

11. Notice that NOBODY mentions poverty at all?

Is there any serious desire on the part of "progressives" to get poor peoples' votes, let alone to CARE what we live with?

Do ANY of you realize what it feels like to be so consistently IGNORED??

You hear that, Thom?
