Washington (AFP) - A weary Barack Obama, eyelids heavy, predicted Friday that the restorative power of sleep and the sunshine of his native Hawaii would restore his wilting fortunes after a bleak year.
The US president began 2013 with a soaring inaugural address laying out an ambitious second term agenda, sensing a mandate for liberal transformation despite a joyless re-election campaign.
He ended it with a ponderous press conference, deflecting dire assessments of his prospects and gingerly testing an optimistic message for 2014: "We are poised to do really good things."
Second term presidencies are always tough, as exhaustion, unmet promises and fading political zeal humble exhausted administrations.
But Obama's prospects look especially cloudy.
His agenda is comprehensively jammed in Congress. Key initiatives like gun control foundered and Obama's approval ratings have plunged to record lows.
Meanwhile, his bond of trust with Americans has been compromised.

We all need to take a vacation from him! I've been weary of his communist transformation of America for a long time.
Oh boy, is that the problem? Well I can't wait until he's tanned, rested and ready then.
She said their girls would not get in bed with him in the morning because his breath was so bad! She said it to a reporter, she said it on camera! I find her as disgusting as I find him.
The only reason O has hit a bump is the media had to temporarily retreat. Make no mistake, it’s not permanent. As soon as they see an opening they’ll be back lying to the American people to prop up this tyrant.
Gee with all the global warming we are experiencing this week in the central US, Obama might have to share the beach with penguins.
Can it really get any goofier than this? Sounds like the opening paragraph of one of those old detective dime novels from the 50s.
Do the Bolsheviks at Asspress and Yahoo ever quit?
Makes me want to puke.
0bama claims he wants ...restorative power of sleep and the sunshine...
Instead, on day one, he leaves Family behind to play golf (???)
News Flash, 0bama lies again
The comments are worth reading.
Here’s hoping for that one BIG effin’ wave....
Yeah, poor guy, all those golf games, basketball games and down time with some choom with your best guy can sure take it’s toil.
Fuddy dies.
Obama blows into town.
Coincidence?
Four political moves that have doomed nobama:
1. TARP bailout
2. Automobile industry bailout
3. Cash for Clunkers (which still has the used car market all screwed up)
4. And, of course, nobamacare.
There were lots of other idiotic, Marxist moves made, no doubt. But these four are the biggies for me.
I’ll speculate that nobama will take the Worst.President,Ever title away from Carter.
Further speculation: Number five will be added soon, The Imperial Presidency. More and more people are waking up to the fact that nobama is pretty much doing what ever and when ever he wants. This cannot stand.
Benghazi.
The purge of the general officers.
QE 2,3,4,5, infinity.
The non-prosecution of Jon Corzine.
The NSA destroying the IT industry in the US (all the big firms building cloud facilities designed to operate beyond the EEZ if need be).
I could go on . . .
The Obamacones (as my granddaughter calls them) are at every entrance to the main drag at Kaneohe. You know when he’s coming on base because a 100 Marines are by each set of cones to block access for a half hour on the base.
