All four metrics of Barack Obama's Presidency are in descent.

• the US economy and unemployment at 10&
• the Gulf oil spill
• the Afghan war (we don't even have a win strategy)
• immigration and the border (drug runners attacking US police in the US)

Very disappointing.

Many presidents were doomed by the perception that they could not control the country. That is where Obama is right now. President Obama is as ineffective as Jimmy Carter.
