Report Card for President Barack Obama:
Health Care: A
Health Care overhaul was much needed, provides a necessary safety net for uninsured Americans.
Economy: C
Though he has pushed through emergency legislation, including bailouts, that has had positive impacts on the economy, his efforts, often hamstrung by Congressional gridlock, have not been timely or powerful enough to significantly revive the economy.
War on Terror: D
This grade is not directed at the way he has handled the wars, which has been generally satisfactory, rather at the fact that we are still AT war. Call me a hippie, but we have to get out ASAP.
Reelection: C
He's looking to be in trouble if he doesn't push through significant and popular legislation in the run up to the election.
