Isint doing what he thinks is best...he has no idea, he is doing what he is told. The Left agenda has him as a great charismatic puppet so they can achieve all the things the majority of reasonable people republicans and democrats alike have defeated over and over. Now they have found a way to use the econimic crisis to ram socialism down our throats, and silent or screaming theres not much we can do except say "I told you so" when its all done and its all messed up, and it will be.
I respect your opinion on this, but don't be fooled, Obama is no ones fool. I didn't vote for him but I don't think it at all wise to dismiss him as a puppet.
