President Obama 55% Disapproval - Rasmussen


Rasmussen Reports: Its latest daily tracking poll has President Obama at 55% Disapproval while 44% approve of the job performance of POTUS. Over the next two years President Obama will have the following political problems, his health care reform, the idea that it would get popular after it was passed has failed to appear, also the fact that Federal Courts have declared it illegal makes sure that ObamaCare will be on the political landscape in till the November 2012 Presidential Election, the fourteen trillion debt has to be dealt with, the Democrats are so glued to their bases, the Unions, people on benefit that they don’t have the political guts to tell these groups that the good years are over, there have to be cuts, and deep cuts, the age that voters retire has to go up, the welfare structure has to be cut, thus medical services will have to be means tested. In other words folks the rich will have to pay more for less. On the international front, Obama is showing more weakness that Jimmy Carter, the Libya people are getting shot by their own Air Force and POTUS has not said a word, to talk about freedom in the Middle East would confirm the polices of Bush 43, that is a major ego problem for President Obama. Also we have Iran and Afghanistan on the horizon, Iran could get the bomb by 2012, will Israel and Obama allow a nuclear armed Iran after recent event in the Middle East. Also the planned 2014 exit out of Afghanistan has a long way to go, you cant give the impression that the terrorists have won, thus tough problem. Thus the 2012 re-elect committee has a tough hand to play, lets see are they any good when there are negatives, when your chief plus in the shape President Obama has 55% disapproval rating.
 
 
 
 
 

The Appeasement of President Obama over Libya


The White House Press Secretary has stated the Administrations view of Libya and Iran, the Press Secretary stated the following on Libya, “ Well, first let me point you to the fact that on Friday, while we were on this plane, the President issued a statement condemning the violence in Libya, the use of violence against peaceful protesters in Libya as well as two other countries. Yesterday, the Secretary of State issued a very strongly worded statement condemning the violence and expressing our great alarm at the violence used against peaceful protesters. We offer our condolences to the families of the victims in Libya of this appalling violence. And the Secretary of State will speak again today at approximately 2:30 p.m. where she will address some of these issues. ” Yes the new Press Secretary Jay Carney did say the Obama Administration had “ very strongly worded statement ” how pathetic can you get, roll over and bow why not! Then when asked about the role of the UN the Press Secretary stated the following, “ There is activity at the United Nations Security Council today. We are participating in meetings. We look forward to working with the international community so that the international community speaks with one voice in condemning the violence. And we feel like when the international community speaks with one voice, it can be most effective, so we are obviously participating fully in that. ”. People of Libya want help from the world community and Mr Carney thinks that “ activity…participating in meetings….And we feel like when the international community speaks with one voice, it can be most effective ”, if Mr Carney thinks that will save lives he is in the wrong job, the Obama Administration does not have the backbone to act, Obama is no Reagan. Obama is fast turning it to Jimmy Carter.

Libya Update

Telegraph: Reports that the Arab Union has suspended Libya from future meetings in till Colonel Gaddafi talks with those that are protesting. This lack of action from the UN down is a stain on the international community, the left wing media have so frightened politicians after Iraq that Gaddafi almost has a free hand to murder his own people. Its time for the UN to grow up, its should follow the advice of the former UK Foreign Secretary in the 1970s Lord Owen and place a no fly zone over Libya to prevent the killing of its people by its own Air Force and to prevent Gaddafi from bringing in mercenaries to kill the people of Libya. The Obama White House as in the shape of President Obama has been tone deaf when it comes to Libya, as with the case with Egypt Obama has shown he is over his head when it comes to international politics.
