Obamanomics: 39% Now Blame Obama Economic Policies for Bad Economy … Up 12! Obama Slipping in Economic Trust of the People

Drip, drip, drip … American confidence in Obama economic policies eroding. Is it any wonder why Obama wants to pass his socialist, big government agenda ASAP.

Although a majority of Americans still hold the Bush Administration responsible for the United States economic problems, according to a recent Rasmussen poll there is a growing number of people now blaming President Barack Obama for the economy.

More important than the snap shot in time of a poll is the trending data. Voters are starting to blame the man in office for the economy and his policies as after all, the buck does stop with the President. This would tend to say that Americans no longer want to hear what one inherited, they want results.

While most U.S. voters still blame the Bush Administration for the nation’s economic problems, a growing number are inclined to blame President Barack Obama.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 39% of voters now say the country’s economic problems are caused more by the policies Obama has put in place. That’s a 12-point jump from a month ago.

The Face of the Iranian Protest … Neda the Martyr Shot and Killed for Merely Voicing her Protest in an Election

Neda … the face of the Iranian protest … There has been many videos, tweets and blog posts covering the Iranian protests over the weekend. However, there is none more dramatic and graphic that best describe the Iranian people’s march for justice for an election and the brutality of the regime they are up against than the murder of Neda. She has become the face of the Iranian protest.

Neda the Martyr

From Hot Air comes the following two video clips.

the first is a new one circulating today, shot sometime before the moment of truth. The blue shirt on the gray-haired man in the foreground should look familiar. That’s almost certainly her standing to his left, watching the protest, bothering no one.

 Warning, if you have yet to see this video, it is very graphic and not work or child appropriate.

Iran’s Guardian Council Admits Voter Fraud (Irregularities) in Presidential Election Over 100% voted in 50 cities) … While Protesters are Beaten & Killed in the Streets

Say it Isn’t so … Over 100% voted in 50 cities … no voter fraud here.

Of course the brutal Iranian regime gives a knew meaning the the term “hanging chads”.

Who knew that the Iranian Presidential elections were actually illegitimate and a fraud? Go figure. Where there is voter smoke fraud there is fire so the following comments by the Guardian Council spokesman hold little water, “the vote tally affected by such issues could be over 3 million and would not noticeably affect the outcome of the election”.

Iran’s Guardian Council has suggested that the number of votes collected in 50 cities surpass the number of people eligible to cast ballot in those areas.

The council’s Spokesman Abbas-Ali Kadkhodaei, who was speaking on the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) Channel 2 on Sunday, made the remarks in response to complaints filed by Mohsen Rezaei — a defeated candidate in the June 12 Presidential election.

“Statistics provided by the candidates, who claim more than 100% of those eligible have cast their ballot in 80-170 cities are not accurate — the incident has happened in only 50 cities,” Kadkhodaei said.

From The Astute Blogger … YES, VIRGINIA, THERE REALLY WAS MASSIVE FRAUD IN THE IRANIAN ELECTION

Rasmussen Daily Presidential Tracking Poll … Obama has Negative Approval Rating for First Time

This is a rather interesting poll from the Rasmussen Report, President Barack Obama has a negative Approval Index for the first time. His Presidential Approval Index in the past has been as high as 30 points. Please note that the Rasmussen Approval Index is calculated by taking the percentage of strongly agree and subtracting the strongly disagree percentage.

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Sunday shows that 32% of the nation’s voters now Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Thirty-four percent (34%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -2. That’s the President’s lowest rating to date and the first time the Presidential Approval Index has fallen below zero for Obama

See tracking trends.

What is most telling about this trend is that those that were once willing to give Barack Obama the benefit of the doubt now seem to have moved to a strongly disagree category. One can only presume it is because they have seen what Obama change really represents. This is hardly a good sign for Obama … no wonder he is looking to pass every socialist, big government plan thru at light speed.
