He says it was going into the libyan civil war without a plan, which is a good contender, but I think it was spending a year and a lot of political capital claiming to be working on fixing healthcare as he made it worse when he should have been working on economic reform. My second choice would be failing to do economic reform at any point. My third would be creating global leadership vacuum as he tried to lead from behind. My fourth would be either the Syrian mess, the Libyan mess, or the deliberate provocation of Putin with the Ukrainian mess.
What say you?

I think he has done a reasonable job as president...and I think history will remember the opposition to him by the congress to be the reason more did not get done.
I am sure he gets a huge kick out of the fact that he pushes conservative buttons as easily as he does...and perhaps his biggest blunder is that he did not intentionally do so more often.
I'd say that you sound like a right-wing fanatic but your post already made that point.
:lol:
Maybe it was that he never realized that he wasn't in Kansas anymore.

Obama controlled both houses and then lost them by making poor decisions, I dont think that will be the legacy
He's not wrong.
Health care is not "worse" because of Obamacare. A lot of the problems with Obamacare are natural market reactions to a dramatic paradigm shift in how insurance works, which was bound to happen.
What kind of "economic reform"? That's an extremely vague idea.
Bleh. That's right-wing claptrap. "Lead from behind" is a manufactured wingnut meme that has absolutely no meaning.
Explain, without fully backing Assad, who is a complete turd, how the "Syrian mess" would have turned out better for us.
We've been over that.
lolwut. How did Obama "provoke" Putin into doing what Putin was going to do anyway?
I think you listen to too much wingnut radio.
What Is Obama's Biggest Blunder to Date as POTUS?
If you dont want to participate you have the option to do so with grace.
I just did participate. Sorry you don't like how I did it, but I'm not sorry.
So what is your answer? Has Obama properly evaluated his worst blunder given the information currently available?
Probably? I don't think such a question can be answered for a while.

His biggest blunder was to not prosecute Cheney as a war criminal.

To refresh your memory the question on the table is
there has been no answer from Kobie.
Wrong. Obama was following a VERY long tradition of sitting Presidents making sure former Presidents, and their entourages, are safe...thus, Obama ensures his own safety from the next Administration's prosecution.
That's just the way it works.
