Drawing a blank here. So far I like what I see, I think he is doing a decent job but I have some reservations. Only time will tell if many of the important decisions were well made or not. Like any POTUS in office he has made some mistakes along the way, nothing that rises to the point of a major screwup. I worry to some degree about his cabinet level people choices, but again, nothing of major concern. In spite of the rumors and insinuations concerning his "czars", I think their ability to offer unique insights to various problem areas warrant their appointment.

Palin recently said she disaproved of his "dithering around" with the Afghanistan question of more or less troops, for example. That says to me, I'm sure glad SHE is not in a position to make that call! Some decisions have to be made quickly, and with risk it will be wrong! Such are the demands of the office. Some decisions need to weighed carefully, considered over time, in spite of the risk THAT carries. Foriegn policy is such an area that needs careful, thoughtful consideration for a long term approach.

Hind sight is always 20/20, arm chair quarter backs abound. Very tough decisions fall of the Presidents desk daily. Take your time when you can, take your best shot when you have to make a quick decision. Mistakes will be made, that's for sure, no matter WHO makes them.

What a CLASSIC liberal answer to what you acknowledge as a good question. A cliche ridden ramble, saying NOTHING at all. The Afghan question? On his desk for 16 WEEKS now and NO decision remotely in sight. That is NOT careful consideration, that is political mindlock!
Palin stated a VERY SIMPLE FACT. WE must win in Afghanistan. Campaigning, obummer the idiot, said the same thing. Now he is UNABLE to decide to do what HE said MUST be done.

This clown wouldn't make a good dishwasher in a greasy spoon restaurant.
He makes Bush and Carter look BRILLIANT. And he makes Nixon seem like an honest guy. Bernie Madoff feels like a small time piker next to obummer the Grand Thief!
