Ouch!:
President Obama’s Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Week
(1) His job approval rating, as measured by Gallup, plunged to a new low of 38 (with 54 percent disapproving) on Tuesday — before “rebounding” to 39/53 today.
(2) His numbers in a crucial swing state he carried in 2008 look even uglier.
(3) Dissatisfaction and buyer’s remorse is on the rise among Iowa and New Hampshire…Democrats.
(4) The housing market remains terribly enervated, and analysts believe 2011 could be its weakest year on record. This underscores this administration’s glaring housing policy failures.
(5) Several central promises of his signature “accomplishment” continue to be exposed as fallacies by non-partisan number crunchers.
(6) Nearly 8 in 10 voters say the country is on the wrong track.
(7) His presidency hit a grim (and, to use his own words, “unpatriotic”) milestone, just two-and-a-half years into his first, and perhaps only, term.
(8) Another trillion-dollar-plus deficit is on the way, and projections of a future course correction are based on deeply unrealistic growth and policy assumptions.
(9) A new poll shows that few Americans believe race relations have improved since 2008. Even many of Obama’s opponents hoped racial progress would be an apolitical dividend of his presidency.
(10) Despite its rosy formulas, the CBO estimates unemployment will remain north of eight percent through 2014.

Obama had a bad week? In Martha’s VInyards?
Huh!
He seemed to be having fun. He’s such an actor.
myiq,
Are you posting this stuff hourly now?
I try to pace myself
LOL. Each of those posts deserved front paging.
where do they find people like that doofus at the 3:00 mark?
Methadone clinics parking lot.
Rumproast
I really do not understand why anyone would believe a word he says.
Once is on him, twice is on you.
I hear these people saying , well give him a chance, he hasn’t had time yet, everybody is just picking on him, it is not his fault.
well
he has had the time
part of the job is to work with the opposition
Yes it is his fault
Perry Versus Palin
This is an interesting view.
I agree with that. If it’s anyone the party machine likes, by definitely it will be more of the same. The only real change can come from someone the parties don’t like, or even better, who scare the shit out of them.
If the parties or media like them, run away.
I thought it was an interesting view coming from the conservative side like that. I’ve also thought that for a long time.
Talk about terrorizing the neighborhood. This thing is cool.
my grandkids would love that. that looks like great fun
a lot of grownups I know would love it
Oh I’ve got to get one of those.
Sounds like God is trying to get someone’s attention
I toldya – Mandate of Heaven has been repo’d!
Btw, I heard Palin predict that last week that he would be pressured to cut his vacay short – although she was saying to get back to work, not because of Irene.

BTW – we went over 400 posts yesterday and we’re closing in on 300,000 hits.
Congrats!! Damn, I’ve got some serious catching up to do.
I want to know who the two guys are who think the country is on the RIGHT track. Were Obama and Biden on the surveyors’ call list?
Bill Moyers told his staff in 2008 that Obama was going to break their hearts (see middle of interview):

Did Moyers bother to tell his AUDIENCE in 2008?
he’s a chicken but he wasn’t fooled…I do remember one time he stuck up for Hillary in 2008- when she said “it took a president to get it done” (passing the Civil Rights Act):

I think Irene will be a stinker … she’s already given me a killer headache and we’re not even in her direct path.
Plus there is a very noisy cricket hiding somewhere in my kitchen!!!!
IBSP!
