BHO came along at the right time and place in history to rank among the very greatest presidents
by bringing two catastrophic wars to an early conclusion and instituting fiscal sanity through curbing rising defense spending and bringing fairness and reason to the tax code. At the current course, he sadly and inexplicably could be well on the way to joining junior at or near the bottom which would be disastrous to our country. ;)

2. He squandered the opportunity to take his place in the halls of
American greats for what appears to be short term political expediency. What a terrible miscalculation for us all.

4. He has 6 more years left.
And you're already talking in the past-tense.

Glad I'm not you.

12. He squandered the opportunity presented by a majority in both houses and the mandate
from winning the presidential election.

Are you hopeful that he'll have as good a chance sometime in the coming 6 years as the one he squandered in the last 2? I'm not.

8. This is the last straw!
I emailed directly to him and told him I have supported his governing, but was disappointed that the Public Option did not go through, also disappointed that the Democratic Congress bargained away the 50 million self funding bail out funds and we got a weak Stock Market reform...

But the Bush Tax cut was the last straw.

I have emailed Pelosi NOT TO LET IT COME TO THE FLOOR and die a natural death, I have called my local Democratic Party...and I have emailed my Senators.

I am at my wits end!
