How's that "Hope and Change" working?

Here's a scholarly study that places Obama at 15th overall, and his predecessor dead last in presidential ranking. I'd rather stick with studies that have some basis in fact, rather than are strictly public opinion. Unfortunately, this is only current as of 2010.

Most, not all, of that list is bogus. Each can be dissected and disproved to have been helpful to this country. And of course, Obama himself didn't do any of that stuff, the POTUS has a staff of 3000 that are paid by us taxpayers. All a good POTUS has to do is NOT INTERFERE as they do their job. Obama isn't even around enough to review and sign documents in a timely manner.

BTW, like Harry Truman, GW Bush is being resurrected fast as historians review his decisions and the underlying situation at the time. Both men had "uncommon courage" to go against the tide of conventional wisdom and make the hard decisions. Many of those have turned out to be correct.

Obama was handed a Middle East in good shape. He has allowed all those gains to be wasted. 4000 lives were spend in Iraq. All Obama had to do is negotiate a "status of forces" agreement with Maliki. He couldn't do it. He wouldn't do it because the lazy bastard wouldn't spend the time.
