That means he doesn't even have the full support of his party's base. What is the deal?? Why are the American people so unhappy with him? Is it the Ukraine thing? There is NO way we're going to keep the Senate with numbers like this. Obama's approval rating was never this low a few years ago when the tea party was strong and the economy was in shambles. Now the economy is improving and the tea party is weakened...WHAT'S THE DEAL??
Hoppy (50 posts) 9. Also, no prosecution or even investigation of war crimes of McChimp's administration.I voted for Obama but I couldn't get up the steam to even give a dollar towards his campaign. A reconciliation type of hearing might have been in order so we could see how the Iraq situation came to be and maybe prevent a repeat in with a future administration. But instead, nothing. ---yet, there are times when I really appreciate the guy.. like the video yesterday when he handled the heckler who wanted to know when he was gonna bomb Russia.
busterbrown (3,079 posts) 13. The Country knows exactly what happened in Iraq..The Polls now are showing close to a 51-32 unfavorable opinion in regards to the Iraq war. 30% of the country hates Obama and that ain't never gonna change.. Hearings on the Iraq war might be in order one day, but will not help out Obama’s poll numbers at all. From U.S.A Today: The polls are a reflection of him not moving hard enough to the left.. In my opinion.. By 10 percentage points, 51%-41%, Americans say the U.S. made the right decision in using military force in Afghanistan, where the Taliban had provided safe haven for the al-Qaeda terrorists who planned the 9/11 attacks. Still, that narrow majority does reflect a significant shift in views. In 2006, two-thirds of Americans said invading Afghanistan was the right decision. But when it comes to Iraq, support for the decision to go to war has crashed. The invasion was launched in March 2003 with Bush administration officials asserting President Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction, though they were never found. At the beginning, Americans by 3-1 called it the right decision. Now, by 50%-38%, they call it the wrong one. The poll of 1,504 adults taken Jan. 15-19 has a margin of error of +/-3 percentage points.

US News Media and ignorant Americans.When CNN, a supposed serious NEWS broadcaster spends an entire day covering the Oscars and ignores the crisis in Ukraine, we have a serious problem. We are far from being well-informed, and are just as bad, if not worse, than our friends the Russians.
flamingdem (27,657 posts) 20. Yes, wtf, haven't Americans figured out that the Media isgoing to lie and distort in favor of the Neo-cons? This article in Good Reads is enlightening, Obama is surrounded by hawks. http://consortiumnews.com/2014/03/02/what-neocons-want-from-ukraine-crisis/ Faced with this resistance from his own bureaucracy, Obama began to rely on a small inner circle built around Vice President Joe Biden and a few White House advisers with the analytical support of some CIA officials, including CIA Director Leon Panetta. Obama also found a surprising ally in Putin after he regained the Russian presidency in 2012. A Putin adviser told me that the Russian president personally liked Obama and genuinely wanted to help him resolve dangerous disputes, especially crises with Iran and Syria. ---------- Though Obama’s taciturn protectiveness of his “real†foreign policy may be understandable given the continued neocon “tough-guy-ism†that dominates Official Washington, Obama’s freelancing approach gave space to hawkish elements of his own administration. For instance, Secretary of State Kerry came close to announcing a U.S. war against Syria in a bellicose speech on Aug. 30, 2013, only to see Obama pull the rug out from under him as the President worked with Putin to defuse the crisis sparked by a disputed chemical weapons attack outside Damascus. Similarly, Obama and Putin hammered out the structure for an interim deal with Iran on how to constrain its nuclear program. But when Kerry was sent to seal that agreement in Geneva, he instead inserted new demands from the French (who were carrying water for the Saudis) and nearly screwed it all up. After getting called on the carpet by the White House, Kerry returned to Geneva and finalized the arrangements.
DUmmies are so thin skinned.
A glimpse into the minds of lunatics.

...and the Joooos, too. Nice snag.
Dear Leader is exposed once again to be an incompetent idiot and the primitives get all bent out of shape.Look primitives, it's not our fault he's stupid and the world knows it.
Brit Hume wasn't very nice to Obama tonight.He said Obama misunderstands the world, has limited experience of it and in it and has proven to be a very slow learner.

I thought that was just Faux Snooz that did that? Now it's The Media? As in ALL The Media? No wonder DUmmies can't make up their minds. They don't have one!
Dain Bramaged better get to hiding ALL THE REMOTES!!!!
