I was driving down Sunset Blvd. here in LA yesterday and saw a big negative photo of Obama on the sidewalk and a huge sign saying IMPEACH OBAMA. A big friendly crowd had gathered.

Yes.

Indeed. And I’ve noticed it’s also soppy, big-hearted, well meaning but deluded [mostly] females.

He is showing Chicago thug tactics with the union issues. Community organizing from the white house is unpresidential.

Yes but don’t include all professors. I think most of the arts and science types are Rats but lots of professors in the business departments and engineering are conservative-perhaps because they have worked in the private sector for part of their lives.

Most Rat professors that I know had the following career path K-12, 4 years of college, 4-6 years of graduate school, post doc fellowship or assistant professor and then promotion and tenure. Except for summer jobs, no work in the private sector (working for your professor does not count).

The country sees all these problems and he quits his job to become President of the Union in Wisconsin.

23% of the nation’s voters Strongly Approve


Am I correct in saying that this is lowest level of those who strongly approve?

I still don’t understand what he said during the SOTU that gave him a bounce.

He sounded like a fool.

It IS the base of the party!

The typical math:

33% of population -- Conservative base
33% of population -- Liberal base
33% of population -- Undecided/uninterested Independents

If the Liberal base is down to 23%, that's good. Because I don't think 33% of the people are currently uninterested. This is a remarkable moment in history, and Obama is pretty clearly on the wrong side of history, with few supporters. The media hides the truth, but the truth is out there.

For most of 2010, more than 40% of voters voiced Strong Disapproval of the president. However, following his December agreement with Senate Republicans to extend the Bush tax cuts, the level of Strong Disapproval had declined.

Interesting that it took extension of Bush policies to reduce his disapproval rating. And you're probably right, the Pontificator-in-Chief's temporary improvement in the polls will swiftly disappear as high gas prices, sustained unemployment, inflationary pressures, inept foreign policy, etc. come back into focus again.

I would like to believe that the dummies are finally seeing this clueless puppet for what he is but we've seen these drops before. Next week he'll offer some freebie or make up some bogeyman and they will be fawning all over him again.
