UK's Express Newspaper: "Is Barack Obama the Weakest President Ever?"

Amazing.  Is anyone surprised this is printed in a British Newspaper, far outside the clutches of America's State Controlled Media?

INEFFECTUAL, invisible, unable to honour pledges and now blamed for letting Gaddafi off the hook. Why Obama’s gone from ‘Yes we can’ to ‘Er, maybe we shouldn’t’...
