President Obama has long suffered the underestimation of his critics.

The latest attempt to portray the President as weak is this 2008 video

This speech, insulting Candidate Obama's supporters in 2008, is suppose to reinforce that the current President as weak?

Barack Obama, who went on to kick McCain's ass in the general election, can't take on Republicans?

Obama Rebukes Boehner In Testy Exchange, Charges GOP Wants To Kill All His Initiatives

The President has racked up significant achievements in his first two years.

Republicans are all bluster. They gain most of their strength from undue hype.

President Obama has long suffered the underestimation of his critics. He's not infallible, but he's not the weak, feckless and callous person they try to make him out to be.

It's interesting that the President is now being criticized because some aspects of his much maligned stimulus package that helped low-income Americans are about to expire and are not included in the tax deal.
