During the tour of the White House at Christmas that Oprah Winfrey gave viewers last night, she also got the president of the United States to give himself a grade.
After nearly a year in office, Winfrey asked President Barack Obama on her ABC special, what grade would he give himself?
"Good, solid B-plus,'' Obama said.
"We stabilized the economy, prevented the possibilities of a great depression... The economy is growing again, we are on our way out of Iraq, I think we've got the best possible plan for Afghanistan,'' the self-assessing president explained.
"B-plus because of the things that are undone,'' Obama added.
"Health care is not yet signed...
"If I get health care passed, we tip into A-minus.''

Democrats are split on a proposed amendment to the health care overhaul bill that would allow pharmacies and wholesalers to import lower-cost drugs from overseas. Supporters say it will save consumers billions of dollars. Opponents raise safety concerns — and fears that it could blow up the entire bill.
