Americans giving Obama extraordinary support: polls (79% optimistic!)

What in the world is going on? Here is a man who has accomplished absolutely nothing and has taken pains to conceal his past, literally “an international man of mystery.” He promises to lower the waters and heal the earth, the promises of a con man.

A corrupt MSM beats the drums of adulation and so a public attuned to commercials and sound bites falls into line.It is frightening. When reality sets in and bites, it will bite hard.

Well clearly I’m now a minority status residing in the remaining 21%

Yeah, but the US just went from a Republic to mob rule, lot'sa luck.

[FocusNexus]

“20 percent of the people can resist this evil, we still stand a chance of surviving”

The 20% will either be silenced or sent to reeducation camps, until they will say “Obama, Obama” and get on their knees to worship him, like the other 80%.

If you ever wanted to know how a whole nation could go crazy and support Hitler, just look around. It’s happening before our eyes.

And like Hitler, Obama will be tempted to use his newfound powers to take this country in directions that will be disasterous, not only for us but for the whole world.

[phatus maximus]

Me too and I am offended by the blind optimism...can I sue for my hurt feelings?

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

The MSM is like Obama’s bride on their wedding night. Of course they all support him. It's all peaches, cream and roses right now.

But wait until about a year from now when unemployment is above 10%, gas prices hit $5, a loaf of bread costs 4 bucks at Wal-Mart, the kids all have diarrhea, they can no longer afford cell phones and those of us lucky enough to still have a job will be sending over half our small paychecks to the nearest government agency.

The honeymoon will then officially be over.

Nobody called me. Do they poll mostly known demorats?

In a real poll, results would show the true nearly 50-50 split in our country.

[canuck_conservative]

This country has been seduced.

Yup. Now comes the painful morning-after, when people wake up and say, "My God, what the hell have we done?!"

[autumnraine]

Oh Dear God, my blood just ran cold.

Do these people selling these “one nation...” bumper stickers not realize that was Hitler’s slogan?? Do they know or are they ignorant. If they aren’t ignorant, they are underhanded.

The communists have taken over from within. No doubt in my mind now.

[ought-six]

“What happened to the American people?!”

Public schools.

>>these poll numbers are a bunch of crap<<

You got that right. No way. More propaganda for the sheeple.

I never thought I would see so many of my fellow Americans in such an ugly light.

I’m no longer looking at these idiots as “Fellow Americans”.

“If you ever wanted to know how a whole nation could go crazy and support Hitler, just look around. It’s happening before our eyes.”

That’s a fact.

[jveritas]

The liberal media will never turn on Obama. They support Obama more than he supports himself.

[adorno]

Obama has no where to go but down, and as soon as he makes a decision that makes people hurt in the wallet

He already has don that.

Wall street started hurting as soon as investors started realizing that Obama might get elected president. If investors are not investing, companies start losing business, people start losing jobs, and the economy starts contracting. However, many of the people who voted for Obama are not smart enough or educated enough to see and understand the whole picture.

[autumnraine]

Oh my God! It’s not just me???

I want to do so much, and I think maybe I AM deranged. Maybe I should just stop fighting and gathering information and give in to the hysteria that is “hope and change” myself...

And I mean that. Like it would be so much easier to not be a part of what I feel is akin to the Resistance, but I do. It would be easier to just believe that this man is who he says he is, but Christ in me speaks louder than his lies and I know he (Obama) is full of crap.

As I’ve said many times on this forum, this goes beyond just opposing idealogues, this time it’s for real and scary.

[ought-six]

“Again, I ask: how did this happen?”

And again, I answer: Public schools.

[freekitty]

I don’t believe this for one second. It’s all about the ignauation.

[ought-six]

“So true. How many times has an American said with disbelief, “How could the Germans have ever been taken in by Hitler?” Well, now you know!”

Yup.

[Rightwingowl]

“We’ve got a lot of morons and idiots living in this country. Public schools? “

No, no! The public schools are telling everyone that this will be “Historic” and making it mandatory to watch the inauguration that day (by sacrificing “class” time).

I mean, it’s HISTORY! The second Bush inauguration was too insignificant to be shown, but this is IMPORTANT!
