I can think of far worse presidents than Obama specifically the one that came before him. What did you expect him to do wave a magic wand and see the economy grow while balancing the budget after one of the worst crashes?
Anyways, the Republicans will just ignore his budget and take till the last moment to pass a budget. I say we cut military spending and crack down on the waste in the Pentagon. There is so much waste in Afghanistan and Iraq through private contractors it is ridiculous. You know they spent $80 million or so on one shitty natural gas station in Afghanistan (some of that money was used to convert some vehicles to NG just so there would be a point to the station which in the end there really wasn't a point)? Or that they spent 400+ million on shitty Italian transport planes that fell apart in flight and weren't made for desert conditions which were eventually grounded and scrapped for 20 thousand or so... So much waste in the military budget. Sad part is that Republicans always want to increase the military budget instead of making it more efficient/cutting out waste.
