Its been a year since Barack Obama was inaugurated as the 44th president of the United States, the first African-American to hold the nations highest office. Its been a year of highs and lows, from winning the Nobel Peace Prize to adding trillions of dollars to the national debt by enacting massive government spending programs while continuing to battle for a nearly $1 trillion overhaul of the nations health care system.
His job approval rating also have gone from high to low, down nearly 20 points since taking office. How would you grade President Obamas first year in office?

But I noticed a request to flood a Fox Poll on Obama and thought I would come over here to seek some support. We are loosing to the Dummies. Come on FreePers. Show your support.
Z minus.
A solid B+. :)
If you read Ace of Spades, you’ll get it. If not, you won’t.
If I posted there that much I’d lose my mind.
A is winning big time, everyone.
Better Freep this poll soon ...
D/ In Danger of Failing: If he doesnt stop fooling around and start listening, hell be expelled. 42% (168,110 votes)
"A/ A+: Excellent: Hes had a lot to handle -- great work habits, great leadership put him at the top of the class. 53% (208,450 votes)"
I’d give him a C for Communist. Except he deserves an F, which they don’t have available—so I gave him a D.
Zero out of a million.
Thanks for the post, Paine. I just voted.
The joke’s on the DUmmies. 0bama has maintained Bush’s foreign policies in Iraq, expanded wars in Afghanistan and Yemen, broken his promise to close Gitmo within a year, defunded the science of space exploration, signed the Patriot Act 2, voted for Bush’s Telecom Immunity after promising the gullible DUmmies that he would instead filibuster it, blown Copehagen’s climate deal, blown Chicago’s shot at getting the Olympics, and wasted an entire year tilting at a mythical Healthcare windmill.
They want to give 0bama an “A” in order to deny that their own Agenda has been failed.
Let them.
0bama lost the governorship of NJ and bootlegger-boy’s Massachussett’s senate seat. He’s lost the Dem’s senate super-majority and he doesn’t know how to spin the ClimateGate emails.
The more that they give 0bama an “A”, the longer they put off their own chances of improving their situation.
Works for me!
“I” for IMPEACHABLE
Hmmmmm, out of curiosity, I hit “refresh” and voted again to see if I could. I could. I also noticed that even though the number of votes increased, the percentages aren’t changing. >:-/
He has done more to promote a Muslim agenda at a cost to the US worth by several orders of magnitude greater than the Islamic total benefit. Even if Islam were to win the power of the US, he’s degrading the value of US diplomacy and eroded our ability in statesmanship.
He’s incompetent as a Democrat, unfaithful as a socialist, foolish as a progressive, and a glutton for attention.
The Greek word KAKOS comes to mind as in good for nothingness, worthless, evil.
How about skipping the grades and just expelling him for cheating?
First Afican America is an insult to Obama’s mother! Does his white heritage have no value!? He may be the first mixed race president and who gives fly f anyway! He will be remembered as the black marxist President who attempted to destroy the US as we have known it!
African - excuse me
D/: In Danger of Failing: If he doesnt stop fooling around and start listening, hell be expelled. 42% (168,156 votes)
The other percentages recorded are negligible, so I didn't post them.
It looks like this is a poll war between right and left. Apparently, there aren't enough of our folks up this late at night to join the fray.
That's an extraordinary amount of work. I don't know how you do it. That's over 6,000 comments. I have no idea how I'd keep from getting booted if I tried that.
I don't think that I could.
“Z”
Looks to me like the White House staff got snowed in this weekend and spent its time surfing the net for polls.

The poll seems skewed...there isn’t an option for F.

Mr. Obama. Zero point zero.
'How Would You Grade President Obama's First Year in Office?'TRICK Question! TRICK Question! TRICK Question!
We can't grade Barry on his 'first year'. Because if we were his teachers, he'd have been shopped off to Special Ed Classes in week two.
I hate trick questions on a Sunday morning.
...............
“How Would You Grade President Obama’s First Year in Office?”
High Treason
How nice of Fox to not put an F on the poll!! They wouldn’t want to seem unfair would they?
I have never wavered in the conviction that he is an usurper as a president, he was never qualified to be president and cannot even illegally act as a president.
Three strikes against him, no grade, he must be expelled from class and school.
Where the heck is the “F”?
The twirpOTUS constantly gets a pass! Now FOX won’t even give the option of an “F”?! Spineless jellyfish!
There is no grade low enough to tell just how incompetent, ignorant and indecent this person Obama truly is, who calls himself President. He is true trash.

The new Demonrat mantra! Woof, woof, let granny eat dog food...spoof on 'let them eat cake'.The articles also contain the new big fees to Tricare for Life the retired over 65 Military's secondary health ins)
obama's war on seniors See the links in post 43-46 and on the last page.
Expanding support for families balancing work with caring for elderly relatives with a $102.5 million Caregiver Initiative adding $52.5 million in funding to Department of Health and Human Services caregiver support programs that provide temporary respite care, counseling, training, and referrals to critical services. The administration says the extra funding will allow nearly 200,000 additional caregivers to be served and 3 million more hours of respite care to be provided. It also adds $50 million to programs that provide transportation help, adult day care, and in-home services, such as aides to help seniors bathe and cook, help which eases the burden for family members and helps seniors stay in their homes.
Even the commie rag Mother Jones is reporting the cut and gut to granny's SS/Medicare.

To rack up entries, I hang out in the lounge with is essentially nonpolitical. It is easy to post 100/day by just ack everyone elses posts.
Refining my characters was the challenge along with keeping them consistent. I have two in the GLBT forum that are very popular and influential.
My role is not to troll but to use these characters to draw out conversations. Not easy task.
I have actually had to make some donations to DU to be allowed certain privileges. That feels bad.
BTW - they made a call to flood the poll. After that call, I watched “A” go up 12 points in 10 minutes. That is why I came here.
While I admire you for having the fortitude to spend so much time and effort in close association with hardened liberals, I have to wonder why you’d go to the trouble of becoming a part of their community, when you could easily just lurk there.
Surely, you’d learn just as much by simply observing them.
I write a blog on the thinking of the contemporary left.
Well, good luck to you.
My personal observation is that the left is afflicted with a real form of mental illness. Knowing that, I keep my distance as much as possible, due to the real contagion of aberration.
Hang around deranged people long enough, and you’ll become deranged, yourself.
Again, good luck to you.
I am not a young pup. I have real letters from Ayn Rand from the early ‘70’s.
Many of the posts I start are double entendre. I started to post an example here but realized I would be outed.
Once of the things that fascinate me at DU is their obsession with conservative media. They never miss Rush and are always posting links to FR.
To be honest, I have never seen a full hour of Oberman, Mathews or the like. I now understand why Air America failed and Fox soars. All the liberals are watching conservative media!
Hopefully, one of them will stumble across your posts here about your undercover work at their site. That'll make 'em even more paranoid.
Good luck. Remember to shower and de-louse frequently .. LOL
Oh, a solid B plus.
How can we even grade his first year as president when he hasn’t proven that he is legally the president?
Give him a K for kenya.
F for Fascist.
