Obamacare woes: Hurting Obama in other areas as well?
Christian Science Monitor ^ | November 9, 2013 | By Brad Knickerbocker

Controversy over the Affordable Care Act continues to rain on President Obama’s personal parade … or drip, drip, drip like political water torture.

A Pew Research poll out Friday has Obama’s job approval rating on health care policy sliding downward ever since his second term began (when it wasn’t that great to begin with): from 45-47 percent approve/disapprove in January, to 41-53 in September, to 37-59 today.

Pew finds his overall approval rating down to 41-53, a virtual reversal from January (52-40). On the economy, it’s down to 31-65 approve/disapprove; immigration 32/60; foreign policy 34/66. Only on the threat of terrorism is Obama in positive territory (51-44).

Is it affecting his golf game?

If not, he doesn’t care.

“...he doesn’t care.”

He does care... that the destruction
of American principles continues
at it’s current accelerated pace.

That was my point, however poorly made.

As long as his agenda of destruction continues apace, he does not care about polls.

Thus, the “golf game” quip.

I’m betting he can’t break 50 there either. I refer to a nine hole score.

Golf scores are not reported.
Which would imply they are similar to SATs, college transcripts, LSAT, etc AKA sh!tty.

The transformation destruction of America is marching full speed ahead with the help of the media.

You are right that Obama is not concerned with what is being said about the website problems or program costs. His objective is complete control of the system being delivered to the IRS so that money needed can be taken instantly.

If courageous people do not bring forth a leader with the guts to stand up and reverse the policies the community agitator has put in place his mission will be accomplished.

Since I can’t play golf worth a damn, I probably shouldn’t point putters.

;D

What about ‘global warming?’ He’s about the cram that down our throats with the EPA and executive orders.
