Obama's ratings have NOTHING to do with the fact most people DO believe our political system is messed up. And it is ALL sides that are the problem. This fiasco with the debt ceiling proves that. All sides were willing to put Americas credit rating at risk just to score political points and try to jab the other side.
Because I appreciate the benefit of reading skills, and would like to spread them to my conservative brethren around here.
You see how those two sentences are right next to each other? I claim most people agree with Obama. The political system is messed up. The topic is the political system. Obama thinks it's messed up. Most people agree with him. Sometimes sentences have to be read with a little contextual nuance so that you don't come off looking silly. It's simple once you get the hang of it.
Glad I could help you.
While they may agree that politics are messed up,
The political system is messed up. On that I agree...

Thanks. I knew you'd see it my way after I explained it to you.
If Obama said that there is something wrong with the political system it is because he can't get his way.
The single biggest problem I see with President Obama is that he is to willing to negotiate we need to bring FDR back!!!!!
We don’t mind the Republicans joining us. They can come for the ride, but they gotta sit in back.”

Yes, let's bring back the man that turned a 2 year recession into a 10 year depression, and is at the heart of this problem of unsustainable, nanny state, unconstitutional welfare state to begin with....Good plan.

The 112th United States Congress will be remembered as the least productive session ever, worse than the 80th Congress, a.k.a., the "Do Nothing Congress."
Standard & Poor's downgraded their rating of U.S. Treasuries based on this performance.
The contrast with the 111th Congress which passed substantial health care and financial sector reform among much more, could not be more stark.
Obama is right.
I'll take the 112th over the 111th any day. I'd rather the government did less than more. Unless the more is deleting more regulations and laws.
When I see responces like this it makes me wonder who exactly is the government? Do we elect a government? You want the government to do less instead of more do you have any thing speciifics in mind or is it just a generalization, do you think we should remove stop signs or let people drive on either side of the road what exactly is it that you want deregulated? We need to bring back the greatest President the only President to ever be elected 4 times President Franklin D Roosevelt

bring back the worst president ever? hell with that!!
So you "think" that the people elected FDR to four terms because he was the worst President Ever? Do you believe in having the people elect the President or would you like to appoint the president? Have you ever noticed how President Obama and FDR seem to have shared some of the same visions? Great minds think alike
Don't worry, he found a black guy that disagree's with Obama. That proves Obama sucks, case closed.

1: That FDR was elected 4 times in no way makes him the greatest President - you're arguing an appeal to popularity.We need to bring back the greatest President the only President to ever be elected 4 times President Franklin D Roosevelt
I -love- how The Obama speaks like He and His people aren't part of the problem.
1: That FDR was elected 4 times in no way makes him the greatest President - you're arguing an appeal to popularity.
2: FDR's creation of the Federal welfare state set the stage for the mess we're in now - runaway entitlement spending, spending staunchly supported/defended by the Democrats so that they might gain and retain as much politcal power as possible.
Purely GOP talking points, without FDR this country would no longer exist as a republic, my guess is that we would be talking German or Japanese. President Obama does not have the benefit of a senate and congress that is united in a common effort to deal with an economy that was in total collapse when he took office, There are to many hands reaching out to plunder the last dollars left.
We do have a spending problem but it is used to mask the real problems we face today, the under employed or unemployed. Tax dollars that should have been used to create american jobs have been used to create jobs in foreign countries. The GOP's answer is to further erode our tax base by increasing unemployment in the USA, I want to see the day when cutting spending decreases unemployment.
The only real answer is to get the government involved in job creation here in America not in China or some other country, I can't believe that tax payer dollars are actually used to help corporations relocate over seas
