My Grade for Obama

Are you prepared to puke? OK, read this article about Obama's interview with Oprah. Oprah asked him what grade he gave himself on his time in office and he said a B+. If he gets health care passed, he is getting into the A- range!! Can you believe that? Here's the report card I would give him:

1. Political appointments and advisors: F-

- examples: John Holdren, Kevin Jennings, Anita Dunn, Van Jones

2. Creating jobs: F-

- examples: threatening to raise taxes on small businesses in the form of forcing them to provide healthcare for employees and Cap & Trade; unemployment rising to double digits, underemployment at record levels

3. Decreasing the deficit: F-

- "stimulus bill", the fact that Obama's budget will create $9 billion in budget deficits over the next decade (more debt than every year from 1789 to 2008 combined)

4. National security: F-

- closing Gitmo & bringing terrorists here, scrapping missile defense shield, no more waterboarding, cutting our high tech weapons days after N. Korea starts launching missiles left and right, cutting funds from a program that allows pilots to carry guns on board, releasing security memos about torture interrogation methods

5. Protecting human life: F-

- appointing one radical pro-choicer after another, signed an order allowing federal funds to be used on embryonic stem cell research, repealed "Mexico City policy", health care rationing

6. Foreign relations: F

7. Health Care: F-

- trillions of debt in order to have the best health care system in the world turned over to the same people who run the IRS and the post office

8. Containing Government Waste: F-
