In two years, I think it's possible that he's already surpassed Carter in the "Worst President Ever" category.
Two thoughts spring to mind :
1. Jimmy Carter was NOT the worst president ev4r. Bottom 10%? I'd hear an argument for that.
2. Yet again, when I'm waiting in line at the gas pumps for a few hours to fill my car's tank, we'll talk about Obama being worse.

Carter's gas pump lines were due to price fixing by the government... also doesn't seem so far fetched for Obama.
It's not too far fetched for me to die of alcohol poisoning. Ain't happened just yet.

A major reason so many have fallen out of the program is the Obama administration initially pressured banks to sign up borrowers without insisting first on proof of their income. When banks later moved to collect the information, many troubled homeowners were disqualified or dropped out.
There's only one reason the administration would pressure banks to do that.

Consumer advocates had high hopes for Obama's program when it began. But they have since grown disenchanted.
"The foreclosure-prevention program has had minimal impact," said John Taylor, chief executive of the National Community Reinvestment Coalition, a consumer group. "It's sad that they didn't put the same amount of resources into helping families avoid foreclosure as they did helping banks."

"Everyone who favors repeal is welcome to come talk to these people and tell them why we should go back to . . . the way things were," he said. "But you're going to need to explain why they and tens of millions of Americans should have their rights taken away."
Give me your fucking podium, you twat. I'll gladly do it.

Any bets on how long it will be before the first major health insurance company declares they are getting out of the health insurance business altogether?

NASA Administrator Charles Bolden said in a recent interview that his "foremost" mission as the head of America's space exploration agency is to improve relations with the Muslim world.
Though international diplomacy would seem well outside NASA's orbit, Bolden said in an interview with Al Jazeera that strengthening those ties was among the top tasks President Obama assigned him. He said better interaction with the Muslim world would ultimately advance space travel.
That entire article is filled with sadness.

"When I became the NASA administrator -- or before I became the NASA administrator -- he charged me with three things. One was he wanted me to help re-inspire children to want to get into science and math, he wanted me to expand our international relationships, and third, and perhaps foremost, he wanted me to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with dominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science ... and math and engineering," Bolden said in the interview.
Reminded of it? Damn, lots of predominantly Muslim countries still use that technology today because their police state gov'ts can't afford better.

NASA? Shouldn't they pretty much be required to move the "S" from their acronym now?

“After a partisan minority blocked this critical aid to our nation’s families three separate times, the Senate has moved forward on restoring benefits to the 2.5 million Americans whose livelihood has been held hostage by obstruction and game-playing over the past weeks,” said President Obama in a statement after the Senate vote.
Yeah. Fuck you, too, bitch.
