When you're president, sometimes you have to act deliberately and methodically, and other times you have to act swiftly and forcefully. Much of political acumen is knowing which to do when. Obama's instincts here seem far worse than random (in which case you'd expect him to be right 50% of the time.)
No doubt he's been burned by dragging his ass and letting himself get behind a scandal rather than in front of it. Now he finally decides to leap into action, and it turns out he fired someone over bullshit.
This is, after all, the same president who's currently trying to make hay by suing Arizona, thus giving him a popularity rating there in the 20's. Pretty poor political instincts for a "smart" guy.
