Fox News ^ | 1/20/2010 | Fox News

It’s been a year since Barack Obama was inaugurated as the 44th president of the United States, the first African-American to hold the nation’s highest office. It’s 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 nation’s 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 Obama’s first year in office?

I spend much of my time at DemocraticUnderground. I maintain six personalities, all over 1000 posts. I don't troll. I am there as a mole.

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.

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.

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!

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?

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.
