BF2S Forums President’s popularity dropping like a rock. A big, heavy rock.

... who is leading us in the wrong direction. Makes sense to me , too.

Well its not like Mcain would been nice to have with sara phalin.

Then he did pick up at the worst time and the bailout money he gave out wasn't really used for the purpose of saving the country but saving the company leaders salary.

It is much worse than it appears.

Small business and the middle class are being decimated. A continuation of pointless wars in the ME will compound it, as will amnesty, as will the failure of healthcare for all and more phony stimulus money.

I see, so their frustration is misguided now that Obama is responsible, yet was dead on when Bush was in office.  Yeah nothing wrong with that inconsistency.

You know my views on Bush?

Nope, I understand what you are trying to say with your post.

you do eh? That makes you psychic

Give it some time... He has only just begun to wreck the economy... you have to be patient.
His popularity is dropping and even people on the left are asking questions now...
We are a moderate country and he is not what people voted for...  It's too bad the republicans
are such pussies at this point, other than 1 or 2 of them.

Congress and the president passed the $410 billion omnibus "stimulus" bill, with its 9,000 earmarks (despite the fact that during his campaign, Obama said he would be against earmarks).

More politicians with tax evasion problems have been appointed to the Obama Cabinet than were appointed to any previous president's Cabinet (despite the fact that he said his administration would perform the "most sweeping ethics reform in history").

Obama appointed (and Congress confirmed) David Ogden, a defender of child pornography, to the No. 2 position in the Justice Department.

Obama's newly appointed secretary of education, Arne Duncan, isn't likely to win the hearts of parents committed to private or home schooling. As he explained in a radio interview, "I'm a big believer in choice and competition, but I think we can do that within the public-school framework." (Mr. Duncan, great to hear you can articulate what you think, but will you represent "we the people" in your decisions? I hear you're a good man, so please don't abandon those of us who choose options other than public schools.)


Congress passed Obama's budget, increased taxes fall upon a larger number of small-business owners than once projected, which ultimately will discourage economic growth and penalize productivity. As Yale University professor Michael Graetz noted, "We're shooting ourselves in the foot economically by relying as heavily as we do on income taxes when the rest of the world relies on consumption taxes."

Despite its history of fraud, ACORN, that alleged political bastion of election neutrality, will participate in the 2010 census.

An executive order was signed for Gitmo to be closed, and the war on terror was reassigned as an "overseas contingency operation."


Pro-choice platforms and practices have been pushed in ways that America hasn't seen since the 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling. Obama overturned the "Mexico City policy," thus allowing federal funds to support international family planning groups that provide abortions. Restrictions for federal funding for embryonic stem cell research have been lifted. And if the public doesn't fight immediately, the conscience clause will be rescinded. Parental rights are about to be handed over to the United Nations. And the Freedom of Choice Act is closing fast on the horizon.

No, I don't.  But most polls are crap tbh.

The right direction? I need a specific issue tbh.

OMFG 5 people answered yes?  Care to support your side, whoever you are?

I think he is generally going in the right direction ...

I guess I could see why a guy from a place that still has a monarchy would think that, I guess.

I know as much about King Harald V as you do about Obama and the direction he wants this country to go in.

If you knew anything about him you would know he has no real power ...

Care to make a real comment rather that trying to stir up yet another argument with yet another a coworker?

Varegg I believe most people here over estimate the power of the President as well. Although, Obama has a lot of help in Congress.
