About “The Leg” « Chris Matthew’s LegWhat is with conservatives and Republicans calling him things like "The Obama" and "The Messiah"? The only people who are putting him on a pedestal are yourselves. Yes, he got a lot of hype for being the first black president... but that doesn't automatically qualify him for being the best president ever who always knows what's best for the American people. Most people who idolized him have gotten over that notion... apparently many on the right haven't moved on. If you haven't noticed, his approval rating is falling... a fact I'm sure you're aware of by making this poll. So knock off the smugness please.
Dated 2008. Besides, who the hell cares what turns Chris Matthews on?

All of this is off-topic.What is with conservatives and Republicans calling him things like "The Obama" and "The Messiah"...
That should be fairly obvious -- political touble in terms of a very real possibility of His party loisng their majority in the house/senate this year, thereby eliminating His chance to move forward with His agenda - say nothing of His chance to be re-elected.How is "trouble" defined, exactly? They are elected for a set period, and will see out that period, whatever the polls might say.
All of this is off-topic.
Can you refute the argument to that effect laid out in the article linked to in the OP?I dont really see that his administration is in trouble
There isnt really an argument there, it's just someone re-hashing all the same tired rants Conservatives have been throwing around for two years.Can you refute the argument to that effect laid out in the article linked to in the OP?
There's no argument establishing The Obama's political troubles? Did you read the article? There's even links to substantiate the claims.There isnt really an argument there...
There's the 'He is in trouble' argument.The last few weeks have been a nightmare for President Obama, in a summer of discontent in the United States which has deeply unsettled the ruling liberal elites, so much so that even the Left has begun to turn against the White House. While the anti-establishment Tea Party movement has gained significant ground and is now a rising and powerful political force to be reckoned with, many of the president’s own supporters as well as independents are rapidly losing faith in Barack Obama, with open warfare breaking out between the White House and the left-wing of the Democratic Party. While conservatism in America grows stronger by the day, the forces of liberalism are growing increasingly weaker and divided.
Against this backdrop, the president’s approval ratings have been sliding dramatically all summer, with the latest Rasmussen Daily Presidential Tracking Poll of US voters dropping to minus 22 points, the lowest point so far for Barack Obama since taking office. While just 24 per cent of American voters strongly approve of the president’s job performance, almost twice that number, 46 per cent, strongly disapprove. According to Rasmussen, 65 per cent of voters believe the United States is going down the wrong track, including 70 per cent of independents.
The RealClearPolitics average of polls now has President Obama at over 50 per cent disapproval, a remarkably high figure for a president just 18 months into his first term. Strikingly, the latest USA Today/Gallup survey has the President on just 41 per cent approval, with 53 per cent disapproving.
It's a poll asking if you agree with the reasons given for The Obama's political troubles.What is it with these retarded one sided polls?
This is due to a lack of understanding on your part, not any defect in the poll.Anyways, I won't vote for your poll because its stupid...
You appear to agree with at least two of the poll options -- why is it again you wont vote in the poll?however I think Obama's biggest misstep is the order in which he is doing things. Specifically, focusing on healthcare right now was a very bad idea. Had he shown improvement on the economy first I think more people would have been receptive to it. I think it is something he should have concentrated later on in his presidency.
Again, it's ranting. "Ruling liberal elites"? Wtf? What does that even mean?There's no argument establishing The Obama's political troubles? Did you read the article? There's even links to substantiate the claims.
To wit:
There's the 'He is in trouble' argument.
Can you refute what the author says here, or not?
Again, it's ranting. "Ruling liberal elites"? Wtf? What does that even mean?
The fact that this article is calling the teabaggers a "rising and power political force to be reckoned with" tells me whoever wrote it is WAY out of touch with politics.
The author is dancing the dance of the partisan rant, there's no argument there.
I'd say the bulk of it is probably the ****ty economy. If unemployment were at 4%, nobody would give a **** about anything in the OP.
It's a poll asking if you agree with the reasons given for The Obama's political troubles.
By its very nature, it is one-sided.
This is due to a lack of understanding on your part, not any defect in the poll.
You appear to agree with at least two of the poll options -- why is it again you wont vote in the poll?
So, you can't refute the specific factual claims and conclusion that he reaches with them. Roger.Again, it's ranting.
ROTFLBecause of your one-sided wording.
LOLNo, a legit poll could have been worded much better.
