Obama Losing America’s Confidence

Lately, it seems that every day a new poll is released with bad news for the Obama administration.  Americans are losing their confidence in the President as they continue to watch him fumble about due to inexperience in ever running anything in his life and his pursuit of far-left goals for the country.  His message of hope and change has been erased by the same old Washington politics of special interests, unions and big government.  A new Washington Post-ABC News survey released today found that less than half of Americans — 49 percent — say they believe the president will make the right decisions for the country.  That is way down from his nearly 70 percent rating at his inauguration and down from 60 percent at the 100-day mark of the Obama presidency.

There is more disapproval for the President than approval and he does not seem to be listening as he increases his appearances in every media venue he can find and continues with the same rhetoric about a healthcare reform plan that Americans disapprove of  and fear will ruin our healthcare system and their healthcare relationships, particularly the senior citizens of the country.  Conservatives outnumber all other political persuasions and that number continues to grow.  Americans love their freedom and will fight for it.

The Campaign Vocabulary Spin

As the presidential campaign comes to an end, I have started reflecting on the different verbages that have been spun in the media and both Obama’s and McCain’s campaigns.  Most of the spin has come from the liberals.  Here are a few of my favorites with the spun words and then what I interpret the vocabulary to mean:

1.  Tax cut – Coming from McCain it really means just that.  Coming from Obama it means tax credit which in actuality is welfare for non-tax payers (40% of people).

2.  Misleading – Lie or rather liar, liar pants on fire.

3.  MSNBC, NBC, CBS, ABC and CNN – biased liberal media rooting for Obama.

4.  Gaffe – not a stupid slip of the tongue, actual truth being spoken inadvertantly.

5.  Investment – spending.

6.  Shifting stance – flip flop.

7.  Voter fraud – cheating.

8.  Polls – a way to sway elections and unreliable.

9.  Spreading the wealth – Marxism and put more bluntly: stealing

Those are just the ones I can think of off the top of my head.  Please feel free to add your own observations.
