How’s All That *Making History* Working Out For You Mr. President?

Making history, or just becoming an otherwise bad chapter of it?

I just love waking up to headlines like these: ‘Majority Would Vote Against Obama’:

A year into his tenure, a majority of Americans would already vote against Pres. Obama if the ’12 elections were held today, according to a new survey.

I know, I know…I shouldn’t be surprised by this. I AM entertained though.

Just 34% say the country is moving in the right direction, down 13 points since April, and 55% say it is off on the wrong track, up 13 points over the same period.

Of course we’re on the wrong track when the jobs situation goes from bad to worse, and when more and more of those without them are losing their homes. And why should anyone be surprised that retail sales are down all OVER the place, given that no one has any money to actually buy anything?

With no jobs, and in some cases no homes, and with no financial means amongst every-day American citizens to actually engage the economy (and contribute to the IRS coffers), what does this President decide to do to raise money for his out of control spending agenda? Why, levy a big fat-cat tax on those that DO!

Genius I say…pure unmitigated genius!

And the Left STILL seems to be in shock over people like Scott Brown, and a growing number of other Republicans they can’t push around anymore, that are starting to make Democrat constituencies re-think their position on all that Hope and Change they bought last year and paid for this year.

    That is all great news but does any of the anointed three really care about the polls? If the three get passed what they want, won’t it just stay in place with a little tweaking plus additional funding for the next decade or so?

    line, “are you better off now that you were a year ago” is really starting to sink in.
    I fear that once/if, “health care reform” is passed, it’ll just be a matter of tweaking and taxing. It’ll take super majorities to amend it, and that will never happen. Too many People’s Republics in the NE and the left coast.

    So the reversal of fortune is probably hitting him very hard. No one can be that much of an egomaniac and accept the sinking polling numbers with grace.

    I feel no sympathy for him at all, because at the heart of the matter it is NOT all about him, it’s about our republic. This is a concept he will never understand.
