The republicans want Obama fail so badly they would use anything to make him at least look like a lame duck.
I would not concentrate on one accusation, there are just too much.

That's how American presidential politics works. Were not the Democrats just as eager to see Bush 2 fail, and Republicans eager to see Clinton fail and Dems eager to see Bush I fail and so on?

Obama is a lame duck without doubt. There is a great deal of Democrat sailing down a river in Egypt at the moment but it won't last because the next Democratic presidential candidate will already have to start distancing him/herself from Obamas failings in order to appeal to voters in 2016.

He was inaugurated four months ago.


Might you be exaggerating because there's been a lot of bad news for the President in the last 10 days or so?

Maybe I am, maybe he'll buck the fate of all his predecessors but only time will tell for sure.
