“one must wonder just exactly how the loon got into and graduated from Harvard law.”

I hope you’re right.

And I don’t mind saying, it couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch of worshipers in the cult of personality.

The president, known for his eloquence and attention to detail, seemingly unwilling or unable to patiently, carefully explain how the world works—or more important, how it failed.

Obama going to teach us how the world works???? I haven't had such a laugh in weeks! An affirmative action brat who never made an honest nickel in his life?

[shakes his head and repeats, "Obama going to teach us how the world works?"]

I think he’s even more of a behind-your-back-with-the-dagger type than the in-your-face. His words are in your face, his actions are behind the back.

A genial, amenable guy, he likes to appeal to every constituency, or at least not write off any.

Wrong. He doesn't give a sh*t what conservatives think and certainly does nothing to appeal to us.

Exactly the words that should’ve been used over and over in campaign ads.

Most people still approve of the Zero. He is, after all, our first affirmative action only half-black but all red presumed office holder. I still am puzzled why Kenya gets two Presidents while we get none.

What?

You mean being a "community organizer" in South Chicago isn't the perfect training for becoming President of the United States?

The next thing we know, somebody will be complaining he somehow got the job because he is an "affirmative action" pick and is a slick black guy with a gift of patter who mesmerized the gullible voters!

I talked to a BO voter this weekend who totally regrets her vote - she wanted to know what we can do to get rid of him.
I am really temped to recommend that we respond to this with:
"There is nothing we can do. We must all suffer the consequences of the voters taking the Office of the President so lightly. I only hope it does not cost us our country and our way of life."
We need to use the next 2-4 years to beat into the sheeples' head that Nov is NOT American Idol month.

That’s absolutely great. Think MSNBC will be quoting their poll throughout the day?

I can not imagine Olberfuher actually citing MSNBC’s own poll.

And you know what, these numbers will not be unknown for long. They are about to go universal.

Watch Rasmussen. Definitely the one to be watched.

He’s not an in-your-face guy...he figured out how to play the game long, long ago...it’s worked so far...he’s clean and articulate too.

["Swimming in the middle, he's denounced as a socialist by conservatives,"]

He's being denounced as a socialist by conservatives because he is busy pursuing the greatest socialist expansion in US history.

When is Newsweek going to change their masthead to something more appropriate to their point of view? Like “The Hammer & Sickle,” or “The Agenda,” or “Red Star Weekly” or just “Komrades?”
