A straight forward question is deserving of a straightforward answer. The answer as to whether this shameless self promoter, community organizer, half-term senator and full-time socialist is a "good" President is quite simply; no. This President stands an excellent chance of becoming the absolute worst Commander-in-Chief that this country has ever suffered through. He is presently an abject failure and promises us that his streak of bad judgement will continue until such time as we remove him from office.
Health care. Well, Nancy Pelosi may have put it best when she told us that we would need to pass health care reform simply to figure out what is in the bill. Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. Obama campaigned on several issues, one of which was that all bills would be allowed time for those of us who are affected by the bills to look them over completely and understand what was in them prior to their passage.

Terrific planning and strategy if you are trying to make the crisis far worse than it already has become.
The Constitution. Mr. Obama is convinced, as he has often said publicly, that the Constitution is fundamentally flawed. It is a document that limits the ability of the Federal Government to limit the freedoms of it's people. Interesting that the Constitution has survived so many years without
