Katie Couric may be best known for her unflattering interview with Sarah Palin. But her nightly news broadcast this past Monday night may be an indicator that the big liberal media are now turning their guns on Obama.

Couric said on “CBS Evening News” that Americans are growing “disenchanted” with Obama and are openly questioning his credibility.

“Is the honeymoon over?” anchor Couric said at the beginning of her correspondent’s report.

“Although President Obama has been in office less than a year, many Americans are growing disenchanted with his handling of the enormous problems he and the country are facing, from healthcare to unemployment to Afghanistan.

“His poll numbers are sliding, and at least one poll shows his job approval rating has fallen, for the first time, below 50 percent.”

Correspondent Chris Reid chimed in: “The president is getting battered on everything from the economy to foreign policy. Some polls show Americans are increasingly questioning his credibility.”

The report asserted that while Obama talks about dealing with unemployment, which is over 10 percent and expected to rise, he has developed “no new ideas” for dealing with the problem.

Her mention of Afghanistan is the key here, IMHO. The Hard Left, which Katie represents is not happy with his operations in Afghanistan. It's not hard to understand as he is breaking a big campaign promise.

If Katie was really sick of him, she'd say he was breaking a major campaign promise (like on George H. Bush - No New Taxes). The mention of Afghanistan is a shot across Obama's bow. If Obama doesn't reverse course, there is no telling what Katie, Obermann and the hard left will do to O.
