Really! Obama is being perceived as a big spineless puss. It’s time to start showing some force and bombing an aspirin factory or hitting a camel in the butt with a sparrow. Real he-man Clinton type stuff.

Aw comeon, he already showed how tough he is. Didn't you see it? It was everywhere....he killed a fly!

Time to launch 20 cruise missiles at a camels butt.

Disdain for the military, ignoring matters of state, out-of-control spending, the idolatry — this guy seems more like Nero with every passing day.

True. Still, it’s notable.

I believe that Zero's popularity, or lack thereof, will directly correlate to the unemployment numbers (which continue to rise despite his stimulus). The fact that unemployment numbers always lag a recovery makes it doubly difficult for him. Combine this with a increase in the number of foreclosures and his favorables will come back to reality.

There will come a point in time in the not too distant future when the average joe (the 30 some % who at this time are neither pro or con) will understand that the economic disaster he is witnessing is a result of the policies of Obama’s failed socialism. “I inherited a mess” will not hold water any more. It will be at this point in time that perception will meet reality despite the remonstrations of a sycophantic press corps. The worm will have turned. You are already beginning to see this in polls which show that his personal popularity is way out of kilter with the popularity of his policies. Something has to give.

Why pray tell are Obama and his minions in Congress working a break neck speed to impose socialized medicine and cap and trade? They know that they only have a small window of opportunity to hood wink the average citizen, (a crisis is a terrible thing to waste.) Their “hope” is that they can transformationally “change” government's role in the average citizens life. The over reach is already evident. When people begin to understand the ramifications and costs of socialized medicine and cap and trade they will go down in flames. And the cherry of top of the whole shit sundae will be amnesty.

Time for another facebook poll and a danceoff on Ellen.

Yes, and I think it’s the result of two things: 1) disapproval of healthcare, which is now starting to bite; and 2) Iran. The GM bailout stuff doesn’t help. But we aren’t anywhere until these numbers are completely in big negative territory.

Exactly. Or dig up Bin Laden’s yellow decomposing corpse somewhere.

True on all accounts. Read a story early that reinforced the point you made about luke warm reaction to his policies and how this would eventually manifest itself in lower approvals.

What are the Dems going to do if they can't run on the economy in 2010 may be the larger question? Especially if “Bush's Fault” isn't holding water anymore.

Their so called “ace in the hole” is that they back loaded a lot of the stimulus to reach the public next year in hopes of buying the election with the borrowed money of citizens. I often wonder how these bastards sleep at night.

I still see a few of them here, in face, one car ran a stop sign and almost t-boned me, sure enough, an Obama sticker on the rear bumper.

I think much of that money is going to go to the “choir” and miss much of America. The stimulus was nothing but payback money pure and simple; nothing more.

Don’t believe the polls; the people have acquiesced with glee for a dictator.

I agree: this phenomenon is the fault of the Bush family: weak GOP governance and policies as well as poor PR.

I have a feeling the federal government will step in at the last moment and guarantee CA’s debt and new bonds they will have to float, just like the bailouts of NYC and Chrysler in the 1970’s.
