Obama Approval Rating Hits New Low

As the president and congressional Democrats double down on their Big Government agenda, a new Marist College Survey shows Obama's approval rating sliding down to 44%, "the lowest he has scored in any non-internet poll since moving into the WH (sic)..." (source: National Journal). As a sign of the times (pun intended), a small group of business owners have paid for the erection of the above billboard in Minnesota. While speculation swirls around the internet as to its authenticity, Minnesota Public Radio has confirmed that it is, indeed, real.

In support of the president's past and current agendas, Michelle Obama appeared on Good Morning America today, and responded to Barack's critics thusly:

"I think my husband has done a phenomenal job staying on course, looking his critics in the eye, coming up with clear solutions against staying the course...That's what leadership is. But people have the right to criticize the president of the United States...

"One of the things that Barack Obama said and continues to say is change isn't easy, and it doesn't happen overnight. And it certainly doesn't happen in a year.

"He's not done yet. He's got more time."

Huh?

Sounds like the Obamas are channelling Reagan's slogan, 'You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet!' This time around, however, we HAVE seen it, and we DON'T want it.

Nevertheless, the Senate is considering another $80 billion jobs bill that could pass this week.

Huh? Spend, spend, spend.

Is it any surprise that Obama's approval ratings have slipped so far; that Republicans have won key elections in New Jersey, Virginia, and Massachusetts? Isn't it just a wee bit curious that the vast majority of voters understand that the country is going down the wrong track, but our elected representatives, most of whom are Democrats, think otherwise?

One cannot help but think that the precipitous road trip we're on is intentional, and the ultimate goal is a far-reaching, intrusive federal government shoved down our throats.

And these guys called Bush a fascist?

In the words of former Rep. James Traficant, "Beam me up!"
