Zogby: BP’s Work On Oil Spill Disaster Weighs On Obama’s Presidency

You didn't say one positive thing for the country or Obama (and these two are clearly not the same) and yet his grade WENT UP?? I hope your poll questions are less twisted than your writing style!

America is not judging Obama by how angry he can get, we are judging him by how competent he is at handling the crisis. and giving him an F would be generous. Funny how Bush "failed" at dealing with a natural disaster he couldn't control by not taking actions limited by law but that Obama is getting "close to his last chance" after two months of (not)dealing with a man-made disaster for something he was responsible by law for overseeing and for something that he had full authority and responsibility to act upon in case of a disaster. He said he's going to kick-a** and suddenly you think things are looking up for him?

Also, the employment numbers (disastrous, not disappointing) and retail sales numbers are in the trash (along with housing starts, bankruptcies , and on and on); the economy is slowing down just like all the post 1930's, post-keynsians tried to warn the Democrats it would. As Pelosi sits in la-la land telling us about Obama's nonexistent "saved" and created jobs (almost all government jobs even if you accept the fantasy), the economy is beginning its Obama-policy induced double dip and scared Democrats are beating up college kids. This warrants an improved score how?

Next, reinforcing his committment to radical islamic fundamentalism over democracy in the Middle East can in no way be interpreted as "not taking sides". A nuclear Iran and a mortally threatened Israel are the realities of his policies, regardless of his short-term (dare I hope, one-term) posturing. And how does bashing England's and Norway's pensioners help him?(1 in 6 dollars in England's pension system come from BP, and Norway has lost 1.5 billion dollars from their OIL backed pension fund since Oh-no-bama began his impotent ranting and raving. Give that guy a blue pill).

Finally, all over the world crises are ramping up and "hot" conflicts are multiplying. Just because the press no longer reports daily body counts (that stopped after Bush left office, wonder why?) or shows bodies arriving on US soil (Obama said they weren't alowed to any more - how's that for journalism) doesn't mean the public is not aware of the not-so-slowly crumbling security position of the US vis-a-vis terror and our hard and soft power resources.

HOW do you stay in business? Democratic party contracts? How much of the Drudge tax do you anticipate pocketing? I guess part of it is that I waste my time on this garbage. Gotta get a life! Ciao
