I'm just curious what people think because lately I'm not exactly sure if he does or does not have a plan. Base it on the stimulus plan...if you feel it worked or not...Health Care.....good or bad, and just your overall feeling of the job he's done.

Try and remember...this is strictly an opinion poll for those that get tight panties.

He has a direction it points to the toilet, so maybe rephrase it

 There is no doubt that Obama has been disappointing to date on many fronts. I voted for him but I am not pleased...at this time. He is hamstrung to a large degree by the Bush bullshit that predated him. There is just too much wrong to correct in the timeframe we the citizens would like...give him time. McCain/Palin would have been an unmitigated disaster afterall

Can you imagine the size of the deficit and the degree to which Obama would have socialized America if he hadn't been hamstrung by previous administrations welfare state spending and the previous Congress' corruption that allowed the economic collapse to occur? And blaming Bush for this mess simply highlights the dishonesty of the partisan left. Democrats have supported taxes and spending forever, and are eyeball deep in opposing reforms that could have reduced the consequences of government corruption.  Democrats certainly never stood up and objected to the spending that they voted for along with liberal Republicans and a big-government Republican president.  And don't forget that it hit the fan while Pelosi and Reid, IN FACT, controlled both houses of Congress for the two full years before Obama was elected.

From socialized healthcare "reform" and exploding the national debt, to global reparations through Cap & Tax based on the lie of Global Warming, Americans to an increasing degree are understanding the mistake they made in 2008, and awakening to the reality that Obama ran as a centrist but is actually a Marxist, pushing for Single Payer, trying to bankrupt the economy to create an opportunity for more radical change, and striving to give away America's wealth to 3rd world socialist nations around the world. It is a shrinking minority that still support the leftist agenda of Obama and his radicals, and the only question left is whether the leftists in the Senate are willing to sacrifice their control of Congress in exchange for a leftward lurch that will forever change America. Socialists are passionate and committed. I'm hoping their greedy self-interest will trump their long-held desire to destroy capitalist America and turn us into another failed socialist nation.

Europe welcomes bank plan, won't imitate it...

That headline pretty much sums it up, doesn't it.   The new Obama bankplan will hurt the US financial industry and make the European Banks more profitable.   Another advantage that the US has earned over the years through simply being BETTER that Obama is throwing away.
 It is almost as if he wants the US economy to fail.......

By Keith Weir and Crispian Balmer Keith Weir And Crispian Balmer – Fri Jan 22, 2:20 pm ET
LONDON/PARIS (Reuters) – Major European economies offered support on Friday for U.S. President Barack Obama's plan to limit banks' size and trading activities but indicated they had no plans to follow suit.

Obama's dramatic proposals could rewrite the world financial order but experts said they were light on detail and could cloud the global approach fostered by the Group of 20 nations.

The European Union will not imitate Obama's plan, because it aims to reduce risk in the sector through other means, an EU source said on Friday.

"Look, we understand the U.S. position and we understand his reasons. But I can't see the EU going down this route," the source, who is close to EU financial policymaking, told Reuters.

"The U.S. finds itself a little behind us on this. The Obama plan is not fit for the purpose in the EU."

Obama made his proposals on Thursday, saying he was ready to fight resistance from Wall Street banks he blamed for helping cause the global financial crisis.

The plan would prevent banks from investing in, owning or sponsoring a hedge fund or private equity fund.

It would set a new limit on banks' size in relation to the overall financial sector and, perhaps most dramatically, could also bar institutions from proprietary trading operations, which are unrelated to serving customers, for their own profit.

Proprietary trading involves firms making bets on markets with their own money and has been the source of much of banks' bumper profits before and after the financial crisis.

French Economy Minister Christine Lagarde welcomed the proposal, saying it was a "very, very good step forward."

Google "Cloward-Piven". These married radicals were invited by Bill Clinton in 1993 to be at the bill signing for Motor Voter, their brain-child, and attempt to register people to vote regardless of citizenship status.

When all logic and reason appears lost on this administration, the Cloward-Piven strategy will change your mind. Obama is just the head of the snake, and yes, this snake has a plan.

Ah, the latest reversal of Barac Obama.   It seems everytime we turn around, he is adopting abnother of Bush's policies that he criticised.   Talk about On The Job Training!   

The latest is the Missile Defense System that Bush had worked with Eastern Europe - Poland and Czech Rep. - to install.  It was only 10 anti-missile missiles, enough to stop countries like Syria or Iran, but not nearly enough to stop a Russian attack.    It still made the Russians really mad. 
So Barac scrapped the program, leaving our allies hung out to dry.  Putin initially applauded.

Current situation?  Barac has announced that there will be a sea borne anti-missile system in the Baltic and perhaps in the Mediteranean as well.  The Black Sea - Russia's private lake for centuries - may also be involved.   The Russians are royally pissed off.   And now the US is going back to the land based anti-missile defense system as well, with bases in Poland and in Romania.    Obama is asking for more money for the program now than Bush had planned.
   OJT, for the least qualified President the US has had since Herbert Hoover.  Perhaps even longer.


Oh, and when is Gitmo going to close?    
Where is the Transparency?   
Why doesn't the world love us now that we have the Annointed One as our Pres?
Why did Chicago, the home town of He Who Walks On Water, get the Olympics?
Remember how Barry the Magnifico promised that if passed the stimilus, unemployment would stay below 8.5%?   

The list goes on and on.  And on.  And on.
