Obama's approval ratings in the toilet

And this, of all things, from the New York Times! This is like pravda reporting that Stalin's ratings are down.

And he's in a head-to-head tie with Romney? But all the liberals on TV said the Reoublican primary was killing the GOP candidates? They wouldn't be falsely reporting that, would they?

Heh-heh-heh. Wait till gas hits $5. In all fairness, he doesn't control gas prices (which he's already whining). But when a guy says at his inaugural address,"let today be remembered as the day the waters stopped rising and the planet began to heal", don't blame the sheep for expecting you to have some control over gas prices. That speech, by the way, was when I realized exactly how severly we had just shot ourselves in our collective feet. i mean, THAT'S a narcissist.

I'm sure the deteriorating situation in Afghanistan and potential for conflict with Iran is causing some real concern.

I do agree though, it is pretty funny.

Given the housing situation, overall unemployment, gas prices, and what Spence said, one would think he would be 10 points behind. Clearly, the insanity of the far right is holding the party back. If they had a decent candidate, Obama would be in deep trouble. Although, it is likely that some of it is that a relatively large percentage of people remember the days of shedding a couple hundred thousand jobs a month and the threat of a depression.

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.

you just stated a couple of days ago that all of these factors were nicely shaping up for an inevitable Obama win in November.....

QUOTE=zimmy;926262]By the way Scott, I like how you have grabbed the party line. Looks like the economy is lining up for an Obama win, so we better start talking about underemployment or a Harvard professor or something. Underemployment was a pretty big issue 3 or 4 years ago too. Didn't matter then, did it?[/QUOTE]

You're missing the point. Obama is supposed to be Jesus or all of liberalism is exposed as a fraud.

He only inherited two wars, the most severe recession in decades, a credit crisis, massive defecit spending, skyrocketing energy costs and an Iran hell bent on going nuclear after 8 years of largely being ignored.

If the man can walk on water why isn't gas 2.50 a gallon?
