DUMS Waking up?

Obama losing some support among nervous Dems

By BETH FOUHY (AP) – 11 hours ago

NEW YORK — Could it be that President Barack Obama's Midas touch is starting to dull a bit, even among members of his own party?

Conservative House Democrats are balking at the cost and direction of Obama's top priority, an overhaul of the nation's health care system. A key Senate Democrat, Max Baucus of Montana, complains that Obama's opposition to paying for it with a tax on health benefits "is not helping us."

Another Democrat, Rep. Dan Boren of Oklahoma, tells his local newspaper that Obama is too liberal and is "very unpopular" in his district.

From his first days in office, Obama's popularity helped him pass the landmark $787 billion stimulus package and fueled his ambitious plans to overhaul the nation's health care system and tackle global warming.

Obama continues to be comparatively popular. But now recent national surveys have shown a measurable drop in his job approval rating, even among Democrats. A CBS news survey out this week had his national approval rating at 57 percent, and his standing among Democrats down 10 percentage points since last month, from 92 percent to 82 percent.

With the economy continuing to sputter and joblessness on the rise, many of Obama's staunchest Democratic supporters are anxious for his agenda to start bearing fruit.

"We are eager and impatient, so you're seeing a little bit of that," said Chris Redfern, chairman of the Ohio Democratic Party. "Elections have results, and those in the base are the most anxious to achieve what's promised in the election. That's why Democrats are showing some impatience in reaching our goal."

COMMENT: THE FACT IS THAT BARRY SOETORO AKA OBAMA IS BY FAR, BY FAR...THE WORST PRESIDENT IN AMERICAN HISTORY...IF HE IS IN FACT THE LEGITIMATE POTUS.
THIS MAN IS SO EXTREME...SO OFF THE CHART...SO ANTI-AMERICAN AND SO DANGEROUS...THAT ALL OF AMERICAN SHOULD BE SCREAMING FOR HIM TO BE REMOVED...AT ONCE!
HE IS DESTROYING AMERICA AND HE IS HAVING FUN DOING IT! THE MAN IS FRIGHTENING IN HIS IMMORALITY! HE IS CONTEMPTIBLE!

  1. America's undying shame will be that it legitimately elected an illegitimate individual to be its first black president.

    No thought was given by his party, the elite and the high-dollar foreign contributors who backed him, those of his race who adored him, the MSM who fawned over him, nor the general public who willingly allowed themselves to be hoodwinked by him, to his background, nor his credentials.

    All of these groups knew his record in Illinois to be questionable, his few days in the US Senate to be pathetically irrelevant, and the truth that his rhetoric was nothing more than flowery speeches. Yet they stuck to him as flies do to horse manure.

    I can almost excuse those of his race for voting for him with blinders on. Was it racism? Let's just say it was a long time coming, and they were ecstatic with the possibilities. And of course the hope, the change, the blah, blah, blah. As generally conservative as that group is, they were overwhelmed and allowed themselves to be swept up in the moment.

    One I don't excuse is Colin Powell. He should have known better. Now, with tail between his legs, he has 'concerns'. Too late for you, general.

    There are no excuses for the rest of them. They voted for this man, and now when he is proven to be illegitmate, and it won't be much longer, they will have to accept their part for putting forth an incompetent illegal. And unfortunately, that may mean we won't be able to elect a black man again for another hundred years. Even a good one. The fix will be in, and the liberals will have themselves to thank.

    This man, Soetoro, is about to go down as the biggest fraud, OR the worst president, (it can't be both) in history.
