He got Osama. He took the bold step of backing the Libyans against Gadaffi. He's drawing down US troops in Iraq. If the economy was better we'd be saying he's probably one of the best presidents we've had in a while and yet his approval rating is in the low 40's.

3. I see a continuation

Drawback troops in Iraq. How many advisers? How many PMCs? Drone strikes and low intensity conflicts created. Pakistan. Yemen. Libya. Not taking my eyes off the ball because of some happy, feel good news.

4. As much as I would like to agree with you, he's been pretty much a disaster, except

we haven't bombed Iran or Syria. Yet.

5. Pres. Obama is also on target to withdraw 10,000 troops from Afghanistan by the end of the year.
