Obama Worst President Poll

A week ago Quinnipaic came out with a poll asking people who the worst and best President was since WW2.

The results were a bit surprising, or not depending on your views.  Many would probably expect Bush II to be the worst, but OBama took top honors here.  And really, its not hard to figure out why.

Obama came into office in 2009 with high hopes, a country whose economy was in a serious recession, millions out of work, and two wars (one of which we were already in the process of leaving).  He had an advantage most other Presidents did not have, a super majority in both the House and Senate.  He seemed like the man for the job.

However, that first year if one recalls, democrats passed the ‘Spending Act’ and ‘Obamacare’.  The former would give rise to the TEA Party in response to run away government spending.  The second, was a stupid choice.  It targeted the wrong problem our economy.  The nation needed jobs, and stability, instead this bill gave us instability.

Employers already strained now had to figure out how this monstrosity of a bill would impact their businesses.  Even now, five years later the government struggles with implementing it.

Obama has been quick to give his opinions on things, like Professor Gates and Trayvon Martin before knowing anything, yet Fast and Furious, IRS, wire-tapping, Benghazi, and the latest border crisis, he says nothing and is dismissive of it.

Its those attitudes which effect how people perceive him.  His actions have spoken much louder than his words.  He never will be remembered as a top President, worst, I don’t know either, time will tell.
