Don't be a moron yourself.. One of the biggest complaints the right wing had of Obama prior to his election was they thought he would be soft on the war on terror.
The fact is he has done a pretty damn outstanding job in regard to the so called war on terror. He's pulled the bulk of our troops out of Iraq and refocused on Afghanistan and went after the tangos into Pakistan. Just like he promised in his campaign.
The right wing wont say shit about that even though it was their "biggest" worry prior to his election. Obama took out bin laden and continues to get high priority tango kills. Going into Pakistan like Obama did is something Bush would have never done in a million years.
Bush was more worried about giving Pakistan a bunch of tax payers money so they could buy arms from American companies and "pretend" to be out allies, while fucking us in the back side.
Obama did what needed to be done , end of argument and the very fact the right wing ignores anything to do with the wars shows they know he has done good on his promise and would be foolish to claim otherwise.
Now his healthcare plan didn't go so well and IMO he caved far sooner than he should have.. So I give him a bad grade on that.
On the economy..sure he hasn't done as well as I would have liked and maybe he's done a bad job there. Yet what have the Republicans done to help him or this country? They have done nothing but fight anything Obama has wanted to do, so if you blame Obama for not preforming well on the economy then you must also blame the house & senate whom are controlled by Republicans.
Not to mention Republicans have filibustered Obama more times in 2 years than what has ever been done in the history of this country. So you want to blame Obama for a Republican Congress & Senate that will not work with a Democrat regardless of what it is. Get real, I'd say Republicans are to blame on the economy at this point as the president can only get things done if the house and senate work with him for the good of the country not whats good for the next election.
On the Banking issue I wasn't happy with it but not like Republicans would of done any different. Let's not forget George Bush Jr also gave the banks a bail out.
