Opinions are only opinions and we all know the saying...

Mr Obama told the Middle East exactly what THEY wanted to hear just like he told 53% of America exactly what they wanted to hear. I will take care of YOU.

ALL except Israel.

It's all BS cause we can't even take care of ourselves right now thanks to the DISASTEROUS financial policies the USA has undertaken.

The Middle East has been at war for the past 2000 years and "our" Favorite Jr Senator has no hope of changing that any more than the meriad of "qualified" leaders who have attempted to do so in the past.

Attend to the home front...we're going down in a leftward swirl despite your "so-called" poll.

Israeli settlements

I sincerely hope that President Obama insists on the Israeli dismantlement of illegal settlements and demands that they not build any more on what will be Palestine. They will try to get around this, like they have with all our other presidents. But Obama must be strong and threaten them with withdrawal of the billions of dollars our government sends them every year unless they live up to the promises they have made. Israel is not a friend to the U.S, they have never done anything to help us, and indeed, have done many things to go against us.

They attacked an unarmed Naval vessel in the Mediterranean in 1967, shooting down our flag 3 times and killing over 30 sailors, who bravely tried to shoot down the Israeli planes with sidearms. This episode was swept under the carpet to avoid trouble. They have spies in our government that report to them and spill our secrets. One of them, Pollack, is in prison in Israel for spying, and their government regularly pleads for us to release him. Treason is treason, he's lucky he wasn't executed like the Rosenbergs. I pray our President sees that nation for what it is, and doesn't let them get away with anything.

obamanomics has obombed and a flat-geister failure. I don't believe these ratings.

Maybe if the government doles and the dead people that voted for obama but only 1 out of 10 is for obama in my part of the country, of course we don't have many government doles here.

THE OBAMAMETER IS ON FULL STEAM AHEAD..

Never In History, Have We Ever Seen A US President, A Black Man, With Heart, Reach Out Too The Muslim World. The Message Is Plain And Simple, And Is Directed At The Zionist Evil Regime, ISRAEL; "YOUR DAYS ARE NUMBERED". PEOPLE IN THE MIDDLE EAST, "PEACE AND FREEDOM" IS COMING, YOUR WAY, TOO PALESTINE, BE READY...

Obama's Approval Ratkng

I do not beleive his approval rating is very high, if the correct questions are asked. If they are as high as you claim then there is something serioucly wrong with the average citizens mental accume.
