How can you say this if George W. Bush was right before him?

Obama is a mixed bag for me. He's done some good (gay marriage became legal under his presidency, he releases non-violent drug offenders somewhat regularly, helped get us out of the recession though some can argue that we're still in it) and some horrible (7 maybe 8? interventions in the Middle East, drone strikes, lied to and turned on the progressives who supported his campaign and became a center-right democrat).

I'd probably give him a 6/10. He's a very likable and charismatic president (not to mention the 1st black president which I personally love about him) but his policy stances are a definite mixed bag.
