He is really good at taking vacations... and clearing brush, probably better than any president in these things.
BTW, a lot of people on here are mentioning the 11% approval of Congress... yeah it sucks but that poll can not be truly compared to the presidential approval poll. We are talking about the nation taking a poll on a lot of senators that they will never be in power to vote for or against; but we all vote for a president... we only vote in the district that we live in. Historically, the American people disfavor senators that they do not vote for but generally approve of their own senators... this isn't to say that this is not the worst congressional approval rating BUT it is also the worst presidential rating seen since Truman (maybe Bush has surpassed it even depending on some polls). Also, I would hardly say that this is a strong "Democrat controlled" Congress... I mean 51 to 49 seats... that hardly speaks of a turn against so-called liberals.
It also doesn't give sane and rational people an excuse for the poor reecord of this president. Just saying that Congress' approval is worst is supposed to make it okay that this president is terrible at his job? That's idiotic.
I have voted for both GOP and Democratic candidates... I take some sense of security that the two parties check each other. This president is one of the worst presidencies that I have ever witnessed. It rivals Carter's presidency for that distinction.

I would say the fact he IS a born-again makes him the worst.
The reason he is not the worst is his thirst for blood matches that of a vampire.
I really don't understand that one guy's point about "the best economy I can remember."
Are you tripping?

Jimmy Carter ran from terrorist.
Ronald Reagan took on terrorist when he found out which ones attacked.
Bill Clinton Ran from terrorist on more than one occasion
George Bush went after terrorist even though the Democrat have been saying surrender. Notice no attacks since 9/11/2001.

He said he was going to do something and he did it. When's the last time a President did that, whether you agree with what he said he was going to do and did or not?
And if you bring up Clinton and how he balanced the budget, just don't forget that he refused to sign all the legislation that did it to the point where the government was shut down, which was the big, bad Republicans' fault. Slick Willie finally signed stuff, it worked, and then he took credit for it.

because of the fact the defeatocrats have the main laughable team of contenders our us of a has ever seen, i'm going to be balloting for whoever is the Republican nominee. it can be a hamster and it would nonetheless be smarter than Obama or Clinton mixed. and have plenty extra character.

Like others, he will also leave one day.
America has a long way to go and there are many more Presidents to come. Let's hope Bush has been the worst and the next ones will perform better.
One must always be optimistic.

He's no Jimmy Carter {coward and indecisive}, Bill Clinton {liar and cheater}, stands by his principles regardless of the pandering to the left to win votes, and said it loud and clear "either you are with US, or you are with the terrorists". That includes our own citizens !
