Troubles Ahead for Obama, Says Zogby

I finally figured this section of "whispers" out, Zogby is grading on a steep curve. Because as sure as the New York Times shills for the Democrats, a Republican would have gotten an F or at best D- for just about every week of this administration. I just can not find any other explanation for how collapsed poll numbers, lost opportunities, bungled international relations, near terrorist misses, economic malfeasance and an historically divided nation caused by this administration and congress can be the basis for A's and B's. You must be using the public school, teachers union approved curve for Democrats.

I have to ask myself, why do they get this obvious and steep curve in relation to Republicans? Are Democrats intellectually challenged? Well, in a word, yes. Are they consistently underperforming and lowering the bar when measuring success? Well, yes again. Have their teachers failed over the years to cover the relevant historical, economic and political leasons that make for informed and enlightened policy decisions? Uh, clearly. Do they lack critical skills necessary to understand the constitution and the concept of political and economic freedom? that's a big 10-4. Are their EQ's so low that they cannot deal with rejection and throw tantrums when someone questions them or when they don't get their way? Wow, I'd say that's a jawohl!

Well now I begin to understand these grades. they are not objective scores about success or even comparisons with Republicans about relative achievements, no these are grades based on comparisons to ungodly low previous performances and incomparably low public expectations about Democrats' potential. So Zogby has to grade on a steep curve, or the trial lawyers may sue him.
