Barack Obama discovers socialist projects and a pro-Marxist foreign policy are making him unpopular
Telegraph.co.uk ^ | July 23rd, 2009 | Gerald Warner

Are the people rejecting their saviour? Obama’s approval rating has slipped to below that of George “Dubya” Bush at the same stage in his presidency and this is causing some concern among right-thinking (by which, of course, I mean left-thinking) people. This is by no means the death of the dream that began in January – approval ratings slide up and down erratically – but it is at least an early intimation of mortality.

For this is no ordinary presidency, this is the reign on earth of The One: his approval rating was intended to break the mould by rising inexorably to 100 per cent and beyond. The problem about a mega-hype like the Obama scam is that when it goes pear-shaped it will crash and burn like nothing we have seen since that other hot-air powered marvel, the Hindenburg. Here we are, six months into the great adventure and already our hero is in deep doo-doo.

The administration is supposed to be the new, cerebral replacement for dumb Dubya. So, how come it assumed, after the Honduran Congress and Supreme Court, in accordance with the constitution, had ordered the army to depose Zelaya that this was a “military coup”? The government has been embarrassed by Washington lawyer Miguel Estrada bringing into the public domain the fact that Article 239 of the Honduran Constitution [...]

[...]Obama was a lawyer.

Yet the Honduran crisis is a direct confrontation between Jeffersonian and Bolivarian principles, in which the President of the US has chosen the Bolivarian – more bluntly, the Marxist – option. Madness, from an American perspective; but it casts an interesting light on some of the stronger allegations that were made against Obama during the presidential election. Three and a half more years to go – this could get very interesting.

Reporters nowadays are pathetic.

What BO needs is more press conferences and televised appearances...maybe some shots of he and Michelle dancing together on the beach at the swanky resort in Martha’s Vineyard, ala Billy Jeff and Hillary right before MonicaGate. Yep, that ought to really fix his numbers....

Again, ironic coming from a UK sourced media outlet, given their socialist-styled healthcare, etc., etc.

Add Pelosi, Reid, the rest of the US Congress and the thugs in the Administration to the unpopular list. It goes way beyond unpopular. People are gathering everywhere and discussing how angry they are. Isn’t pretty out there.

The government has been embarrassed by Washington lawyer Miguel Estrada bringing into the public domain the fact that Article 239 of the Honduran Constitution insists that any president proposing the permissibility of re-election (as Zelaya did) “shall cease forthwith” in his office; and that Article 4 defines such an “infraction” as treason.

I really wish Estrada's judicial nomination had been confirmed.

The halfwits who voted for him are starting to realize just what they’ve elected in the first Sesame Street president.

Its fascinating that a few things are happening all around the same time: Health Scare reform, GatesGate, and Honduras.

While -11bama shows his true colors with all his maneuvering to get Zelaya back, it clarifies to us Americans where we stand: We basically HAVE RIGHT NOW a "zelaya" as president here in the US.

I know. They are. People are furious at this administration and the Congress. We are tired of their cheating, lying and stealing from us and bullying.

Gee who could have guessed that if you have to hide your true beliefs to get elected that when you act on your true beliefs after that election you would lose popularity?

I wasn't going to say this because it is just hearsay on my part but I am starting to hear other peoples conversations in passing at the mall, grocery store or other places about how much they dislike Obama and how our country is being led. It doesn't mean much other than people are getting restless.

I should mention that I am in a Blue state. Ughhhhh.

Correction.

American people have discovered this. Obama still thinks the same.

Its amazing our best news comes from Britain now.

The American State-Run media can’t be counted on anything.
