6 in 10 give him ‘F’; another 25% grade him with ‘D’

An unscientific CBS News poll evaluating President Obama’s first year in office gives him – by an overwhelming margin – a failing grade.
In the poll, which has been online for several weeks and has attracted thousands of comments, not even 3 percent of the respondents grade Obama with an “A,” barely another 3 percent give him a “B” and about 4 percent give him a “C.”
Almost 26 percent give him a “D” and more than 63 percent him an “F.”
Said one person on the poll’s comments section: “Obama may be a Harvard Law School graduate, but when it comes to common sense, he must of skipped that class, or failed it miserably.
“His problem is that because he doesn’t really have any lead[er]ship ability or experiance (sic), he leaves it up to others to make the decisions. Why do you think this whole Health Care Bill is in such trouble, he left it to a bunch of First Class Idiots to compose, and it is so bad they had to buy votes to get it passed in both the House & Senate.”
The poll explains CBS is “giving you the chance to weigh in on how you think he has done on the job.” Readers are asked to choose a grade from an “A” to “F’ scale. The 10 categories are economy, foreign policy, health care, Afghanistan, Iraq, threat of terror, energy and environment, social issues, bipartisanship and overall.
The results showed Americans believe Obama is moving the nation in the wrong direction on every count.
Fewer than 6 percent gave him an “A” or a “B” on the economy. Seventy percent gave him an “F” and another 18 percent a “D.” On foreign policy, more than 84 percent gave him a “D” or “F” and only 3.9 percent gave him an “A.”
On Obama’s proclaimed No. 1 priority, health care, nearly 82 percent graded him with an “F” and nearly another 10 percent handed out a “D.” Only 2.6 percent gave him an “A.”
On Afghanistan, where Obama has maintained many of George W. Bush’s policies – to the point of dispatching more troops to Afghanistan – his grades of “D” or “F” made up about 55 percent of the respondents’ total. Under 30 percent granted him a “C.”

The Senate Judiciary Committee has cause to consider finding Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. in contempt of Congress. During his confirmation process last year, Mr. Holder withheld a tremendously important legal brief from the committee. Combined with a series of other occasions on which the attorney general has stonewalled congressional queries, this new revelation reflects so badly on Mr. Holder’s ethics that it puts in doubt his fitness for office.
