The decline in Obama's approval rating matches almost perfectly with that of another blame America firster, Jimmy Carter.
Being a pathological liar is probably one of the biggest problems Obama faces concerning popularity. That and the fact that he throws a baseball like a little girl.
Think. If the trend continues, where and why will Obama's rating be in the future? And how can that be happening with his rabid support among most of the lamestream media, the New York times and the network news, CNN, PBS and the like, and of course most of Hollywood and the gliterazzi.
Bush enjoyed none of that 5th column support. He suffered through the exact opposite.
I'd take Bush over Obama any day. At least Bush was a President who was/is proud of America and not afraid to confront the scumbag tyrants and dictators of the world. The demise of his approval rating was mostly due to the situation in Iraq and at the end the economic disaster.
The left also did a great job peddling their propaganda that a hurricane was the fault of President Bush. It really was outrageous. People can be such gullible idiots sometimes.
Wait until the 20-somethings wake up in the next two years and find what the so-called health care bill has in store for them. His approval rating should drop from this core constituency.
I am to the point where I actually despise the current President. He is a danger and menace to our nation in virtually every bit of sputum that comes from his mouth. Hugo Chavez and Barack Obama are becoming virtually indistinguishable from one another. Luckily, he has a weak backbone and doesn't handle criticism very well which can also be brought to play against him in reaching the minds of the average American voter.
Rocco, we have something in common as I too, did not like Bush.
It makes a difference when Rocco put up the graph of Bush. I was merely showing him the other side.
Does it make a difference????
In politics what the people want makes a big difference. This is our country, not the politicians. This isn't Obama's country, we don't work for him. HE WORKS FOR US! If he's not getting the job done, and headed in the wrong direction, WE'LL FIRE HIM. The poll shows the majority of the people are ready to fire him. One down three to go...
I didn't say you needed. I said you have. Bush is gone.... good riddens. He isn't coming back....... thank the Lord above. Are problem is the present. I get a kick out of this forum and arguing politics. One of you should Run for President.
Other reasons why Obama's approval is steadily declining:
quote:
“I think I’ve been very clear. (unintelligible), there’s a presidential election in four years. I’m not running for president in four years.”
Barack Obama, November 2004
quote:
“I can unequivocally say I will not be running for national office in four years, and my entire focus is making sure that I’m the best possible senator on behalf of the people of Illinois.”
WASHINGTON — One year into its promise of greater government transparency, the Obama administration is more often citing exceptions to the nation's open records law to withhold federal records even as the number of requests for information declines, according to a review by The Associated Press of agency audits about the Freedom of Information Act.
Among the most frequently cited reasons for keeping records secret: one that Obama specifically told agencies to stop using so frequently. The Freedom of Information Act exception, known as the "deliberative process" exemption, lets the government withhold records that describe its decision-making behind the scenes.
Obama's directive, memorialized in written instructions from the Justice Department, appears to have been widely ignored.
Major agencies cited the exemption at least 70,779 times during the 2009 budget year, up from 47,395 times during President George W. Bush's final full budget year, according to annual reports filed by federal agencies. Obama was president for nine months in the 2009 period.
Michele, a good southern lady, informed me the other day that "we need to move our deal." I said, "what deal are you talking about?" She clarified "the deal that we planted in the pots on the back patio. It needs to go into the garden before it gets too big."
She was talking about the "dill." LOL We both laughed for a long time on that.
I love her southern accent, but sometimes it gets the better of me. LOL.
Anytime Politics are on this forum it seems like it the same core of people on the BadWeb "are" involved. Its funny.... pathetic at the same time.LOL I never get involved. It just seems like you guys all seem to know whats right and wrong. All opinions as far as I'm concerned. Go find a forum for politics for crying out loud theres probably plenty of them....I don't know but I bet a bunch.lol In the mean time. Hope all of you coming to Homecoming can get the wedgies out of your cracks and leave the politics at home. Now..... what were we talking about again??? Oohhhh yes Buell and other motorcycle related things.
motorcycle forums are the worst place to read about politics and the good news is that every Buell Homecoming I've ever attended, there has NEVER been any talk of politics discussed at any of them! THANK GOD!!!
If you don't want to discuss the issues raised here, fine, don't.
Why should others be prohibited from doing so, especially those of us who perceive a very real and willful destruction (some call it "change") of America, continued erosion of our freedom, and the abuse by the federal government in taking more and more control over our lives.
And here we go again. At the same time if its something that turns into bickering,arguing or Lord forbid something,Blake you or the mods of this site feel its something that doesn't belong on this site of "OURS" it gets locked or removed.
Whats personal??? If I want to read about politics I'll turn on the news,read the paper. Its not personal but your comments to me "are" getting personal to me.
"Whats personal??? If I want to read about politics I'll turn on the news,read the paper. Its not personal but your comments to me "are" getting personal to me."
You made it personal with your comment "Thats your opinion Blake.... you have that right."
"Why make such a comment? I've asked twice now, but you won't answer.
Why do you feel the need to inform people that they have a right to their opinion?
Do you imagine folks don't understand that they are allowed to have their own opinions?
Ohhhh let it go Blake. I can see how much passion you have for Bush. Thats where I get opinion from. But then you turned into a English teacher on me then called me a smart Ass so many words. So lets just leave it alone now. It probably would best.
I suspect you secretly love reading political threads. Otherwise, why are you here bemoaning that politics is being discussed on a political thread? Should photography not be discussed on a motorcycle bulletin board?
As long as a thread is obviously political in nature, every forum on the Internet is the perfect place to help others open their eyes that the United States of America is being destroyed by Obama. You have been lied to. Maybe you are stuck in your sleep, but many others are capable of waking up when logical people like Blake and Court show them the way.
Crying about political threads that are clearly political is pretty silly. Why are you here if you have nothing to add. Why don't you start by answering Blake's question. It is so Soviet of you to permit Blake to have his opinion.
