The “progressives” are furious with him for totally screwing up the push for socialized medicine.

..and I think the media blitz tomorrow is way wrong for Obama, and I have popcorn cooking. Once the feeding frenzy begins—and maybe it has—it will be downhill fast for BO.

As one FReeper eloquently pointed out, Obama is simply preaching to the choir on those 5 liberal shows. He’s excluding Fox but the viewers of Fox are the ones he needs to win over.

WaPo is falling off the 0bummer wagon. They have had several non-hagiographic articles this week!

Personal charm?

He is good a reading a teleprompter, and that's about it!

He's making @ss-backwards decisions, catering to terrorist sponsoring nations, and the has insulted half of our allies. How long did the fringe media think the rest of the World would take to notice? The British press picked up on it months ago.

This ego-maniacal freak and his road show need to move out of Our House and let the ADULTS run the country.

From the article:

"Obama's top foreign policy advisers say the president's popularity abroad has helped to clear a path for substantial policy achievement by ushering in a new era of respect for the United States in other countries."

For the life of me, I cannot figure out this adoration for all things Obama.

I like President Bush, even saw him speak at CPAC in 2008, but I never had the “Sycophant Euphoria” that I see with the Obama lovers.

I'm not sure if it's the adoring State Run Media, the Democrat Party promise of equality through Socialism or the Liberal version of Racist Guilt.

I wake up every day and still have trouble thinking that the American People have become so ignorant of what made this country the envy of the world. They have to believe such absolute nonsense, day in and day out, that I think that they have given up and just accept the Liberal slant being spoon fed to them.

Critical thinking has taken a vacation to nowhere.

What “personal charm”?
For the life of me, I have simply never seen it...
I must be out of the loop or something.

Did you read the whole column? These two authors' tongues must smell like Ubama's sphincter.
