How about we hold him responsible for getting binLaden, responsible for the stock market, getting an economy turned around WITHOUT an explosion in inflation and interest rates, giving Detroit to save the America auto industry? Not bad compared to the last administration!

1. bin Lade - ok

2. economy turned around - hardly - all praise an 8.3% unemployment rate after $4 trillion of deficit spending. Hey I thought you were a fiscally responsible guy. Not really I guess. As I said - the only thing that would p off most Obama supporters is if he stopped an abortion.

3. giving Detroit? - Hey - he screwed the bond holders and gave the company to the union. Nothing but a payoff.

"WITHOUT an explosion in inflation and interest rates"

Hey - as a Ron Paul supporter you must believe that is coming in spades!

He is a fiscal disaster for America!

The effort had been ongoing from before he came in to office, and likely would have continued under almost any other possible president. He gets a little credit, he was at the helm when it happened, but only a little.

responsible for the stock market,

What specifically? Why?

getting an economy turned around

Economies mostly turn around by themselves if something doesn't get in the way. Also this has been a very anemic recovery.

giving Detroit to save the America auto industry

The political interference in the bankruptcy process was neither beneficial overall, nor necessary to continue to have a car industry in the US.
