6. Oh that will change....
   
I mean everyone's going to start being super excited when that deficit he's paid so much attention to starts to get paid down. I mean sure people are going to go "Hmmmm...lost my job...can't find a new job.....having trouble paying my mortgage and feeding my family.......but HEY...looky here. The deficit went down by .5%!!!! Morning in America again!!!!"

And of course this deficit reduction is going to happen because......uh....tax cuts?

Like it or not DUmmies, people are going to blame 0bama for the economy, even though Reid and Pelosi gave him plenty of help, he will be the one who will pay the price in 2012.

Yep, it's hard for anyone to get re-elected (even the Messiah) when unemployment is around 9%, gas prices are between $3-$4, and consumer prices are climbing as well.

Well, it's all Bush's fualt, you know.

The 26% includes only about half the people that don't even pay taxes.  So there are people (the Black Congressional Caucus, for example) who disapprove of Obama because he hasn't doled out more of the rich's money to them.

That is true, just because he has a low approval rating doesn't mean that many of those who disapprove for not enough socialism won't vote for him in 2012.

His approval rating was ZERO among the self employed bunch I was with last night.

Off the top of my head, I am acquainted with five people who voted for Obumbles:

Two of them have plans to vote for him again in 2012.

Another may sit out the next election, or possibly even listen to her brother-in-law (me) and switch her vote.

Two others are too embarassed to admit they voted for Obumbles, and are absolutely switching their votes in 2012.  

Of the latter two, one is even sporting a Herman Cain bumper sticker at the moment.  :cheersmate:



P.S. DUmmies,

One of the people that is absolutely switching her vote was the type to think that the Democrat party of her parents and grandparents was the Democrat party of today.  I begged her to take a trip to the DUmp, and let her draw her own conclusion.  Thanks for the help, DUmbasses.

Huh, 26%.  Boortz was quoting a story from Nov. 11, 2008 on today's show.  The article cited a poll that said that 76% believed that Obama would improve the economy and calm the markets.  76%.  What the hell did they base that on?  People are stupid.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value.

Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site
