I, like many others am against the healthcare bill because it doesn't go far enough!!!<br />I also knew Obama was a phony from the start, but do you really think McCain would have been better-especially with that idiot Palin at his side? Obama probably will lose, because he blew too loud a horn, and doesn't have the power or the integrity to deliver.<br />But who do you imagine has the power or the integrity to do a better job? Perhaps Kucinch on the left or Paul on the right - but neither will win for that very reason - they do have integrity - and the true powers that are will not allow them that power - and it will very easy for them, because most people are idiots and too easily swayed and deceived by the main stream media.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-16869736012839614242010-07-14T16:37:58.500-05:002010-07-14T16:37:58.500-05:00Facts Herbie can't wrap his dogmatic little he...Facts Herbie can't wrap his dogmatic little head around:<br /><br />Taxes are at their lowest this year since Herbert Hoover but the economy is only treading water after digging out from the Bush collapse, and nearly half of the current budget deficit comes from the Bush tax cuts.<br /><br />A shift within the margin of error on support for a presidential priority matching a similar shift in that president's approval rating suggests that the priority is being rated as a partisan matter; there is no change indicating any sort of actual alteration of belief.<br /><br />Invading Iraq, leaving Afghanistan in limbo for seven years, exploding the federal deficit, eliminating effective oversight on offshore drilling, gutting FEMA, and implementing DOMA were all Republican ideas. They haven't had a good idea that's actually proven successful in practice since Desert Storm I, just oversimplified bumper stickers (needed for over-simple minds like Herbie's).<br /><br />Herbie still hasn't been able to find an actual demonstrable example of 'abusiveness' or 'bigotry' or 'arrogance' that's anything more than his own blind hatred coloring everything he sees. The charge of 'bigotry' in particular is vastly amusing coming from someone who openly supports the idea of inviting businesses to engage in racial discrimination, believes that Jews are damned, and thinks 'Islamofascism' is a word.NRHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12565160695480579309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-22609072510166560222010-07-14T16:35:54.445-05:002010-07-14T16:35:54.445-05:00Quinnipiac: Obama would lose Pennsylvania!

If it's Obama's policies, Obama is screwed. If it's Obama's personality, Obama is screwed. If it's Obama's leadership or administrative capabilities, Obama is screwed. No matter what it is, Obama is a lame duck already. Obama will be a one-term failure.... unless he turns sharply to the right and hires more centrist advisors (like Bill Clinton and Dick Morris), Obama cannot possibly regain Americans' trust after he has so horribly violated that trust.Christian Libertyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04842885802414436051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-89506361435553142612010-07-14T14:05:55.848-05:002010-07-14T14:05:55.848-05:00Joel, the economy WILL NOT "perk up" und...Joel, the economy WILL NOT "perk up" under Democratic tyranny. The economy will only revive when employers and investors can expect LOWER taxes, LESS uncertainty on new regulation, legislation, and litigation, and LESS government intrusion (spending). <br /><br />This alone makes even ill-defined Republican plans VASTLY SUPERIOR to the terribly intrusive and ill-conceived Democrat agenda.<br /><br />And you actually think no Republican can beat Obama?! LOL! A better question is whether Obama could possibly be reelected, no matter whom his opponent would be. <br /><br />Obama will face a bigger landslide defeat than Carter's loss to Reagan.Christian Libertyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04842885802414436051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-58628760893893194232010-07-14T13:33:38.384-05:002010-07-14T13:33:38.384-05:00On my blog a few months ago, I noted that the decl...On my blog a few months ago, I noted that the decline in Obama's approval ratings has been essentially exponential. That is, the higher Obama's approval, the more quickly his approval rating fell.<br /><br />Based on that, I concluded that Obama's decline was primarily due to a failure to meet the public's expectations. I declined to speculate as to what the expectations were, though; people of different political leanings will give very different answers to that question.The Interesting Timeshttp://the-futurologist.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-35569308373051541442010-07-14T12:01:16.046-05:002010-07-14T12:01:16.046-05:00When I read the PDF file, it saus the poll was con...When I read the PDF file, it saus the poll was conducted <b>June</b> 9-12.<br /><br />Obviously, this is wrong and is a typo.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-71576477717883319032010-07-14T11:43:20.336-05:002010-07-14T11:43:20.336-05:00Was this poll of likely voters or registered voter...Was this poll of likely voters or registered voters?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-42359751915525688072010-07-14T11:14:39.110-05:002010-07-14T11:14:39.110-05:00"Whites now disapprove of Obama by nearly a 2..."Whites now disapprove of Obama by nearly a 2:1 margin, with 62% giving him bad marks and only 35% saying he's doing a good job.
