Obama Job Approval Continues to Slip, 50% - 44% According to Gallup, Correction … Under 50%, Also Rasmussen & Quinnipiac Polls

How low can he go? All Polls show that Obama job approval has hit the skids. Some polling shows that Obama has dipped below 50% for first time.

President Barack Obama’s job approval ratings continue to fall. According to Gallup, only 50% now approve of Obama’s job performance. That is down from 68% in January 2009.

In other bad polling news for The One, only 47% think President Obama’s policies are “about right” in promoting efforts to aid the black community. That is down from the 64% only a year ago.

The Rasmussen Daily Tracking poll for November 14, 2009 has Barack Obama at -14, OUCH! This is the fifth day in a row that Obama had a negative double digit rating and the -14 represents the lowest Presidential approval index of Obama’s Administration. Rasmussen poll also shows that only 46% approve of Obama while 52% are against.

Rev Jesse Jackson Sighting: ‘You can’t vote against healthcare and call yourself a black man’

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water … there is a Reverend Jesse Jackson sighting.

The Reverend Jackson has once again shown he is a divider, not a uniter. What would this man ever do for a living if races actually got along in peace and harmony. Sadly, we may never know as this race-baiter will see fit that it never occurs.

Rev. Jackson, does it also make you a black man if you want to “cut his nuts out?”

A note to all the black people in America who have health insurance that you have no issue with, the Rev. Jesse Jackson says that “You can’t vote against healthcare and call yourself a black man.” Really? What would they be called Rev. Jackson, a racist? Or as The Other McCain opines, “Congratulations to this overnight Caucasian! He is now a man who can join the Klan. Send the word to Senator Bob Byrd”.

The remark stirred a murmur at the reception, held by the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) Foundation as part of a series of events revolving around the 25th anniversary of Jackson’s run for president. Several CBC members were in attendance, including Chairwoman Barbara Lee (D-Calif.), who’d introduced Jackson.

Davis, who is running for governor, is the only black member of Congress from Alabama.

If you don’t vote for Obamacare, you’ll change from being a black man

Who knew that is you did not vote for Obamacare that you could not be black. Does that mean if Artur Davis’ Democratic primary opponent, Ron Sparks, who is white would vote for the health care bill that it would make him white?

From Another Black Conservative … “Leave it to Jesse to do his part to make sure no blacks wander off the white liberal plantation.  Imagine that, the black skin the good Lord gave you isn’t good enough unless you buy into socialized medicine”.

40 Year Old Women … No Mammograms For You … Welcome to the Future of Obamacare & Restriction of Health Care

So Sarah Palin was way off base when she mentioned “death panels,” eh?

40 year old women, no soup, um … no mammograms for you!

Be very afraid America … this is no coincidence that such a recommendation came out now as Obama and Democrats try and pass universal healthcare. How do you think that a government run option can afford to pay for 41 million new insured’s, they cut costs by calling screenings or procedures unnecessary. Welcome to the trial balloon birth of rationed health care.

A Government Task Force has stated that self-breast exams do no good and some women don’t need to start getting mammograms until they’re 50. Welcome to the beginning of Obamacare and socialized, government controlled healthcare. This is how it begins, a government task force turning decades old health care breast screening protocol on it’s head.

Shocking recommendations given the American Cancer Society has encouraged women for more than 20 years to do monthly self-exams and start getting routine mammograms in their 40s.

The government task force, which is made up of doctors and scientists, reported getting screened too early causes false alarms and unnecessary biopsies.

Dr. Robert Pulliam, of Professional Medical Ultrasonics in Beckley, said early detection of any form of cancer increases survival rates.

How many woman in their 40’s are alive today because the received a mammograms and had early detection of breast cancer? In this day and age, sadly, pretty much every one knows some one who has had breast cancer. Personally, I think this is appalling. Having had so many relatives and friend’s moms and sisters be diagnosed with breast cancer in their 40’s … I take this personally. This is the slippery slope of health care when a so-called “independent” government task force of doctors try and change what has worked for years. Shame on you! 

In its first reevaluation of breast cancer screening since 2002, the independent government-appointed panel [talk about your oxymorons] recommended the changes, citing evidence that the potential harm to women having annual exams beginning at age 40 outweighs the benefit.

Wouldn’t This be Something … Doug Hoffman un-concedes in NY-23 US House Race

My what a difference a day makes. In this case several weeks. However, it it is being reported at The Hill that Conservative Party candidate Doug Hoffman has “un-conceded” in New York’s 23 special House election.

It was kind of head scratching that Hoffman conceded as fast as he did election night to Democrat Bill Owens. However, when one is given faulty info, what do you expect. I am sure it was completely unintentional. As others surmise, wouldn’t this be interesting and a kick in the Pelosi pants if Hoffman actually won.

Hoffman conceded the race on Election Night after learning he trailed Owens by 5,335 votes. But the Syracuse Post-Standard reported last week that the margin had shrunk to 3,026 votes after recanvassing.

Republican Senate Minority Leader Mitch Mc Connell on FNS … Discussing KSM Trial in NYC, Obamacare and Tax Payer Paid for Abortions

Republican Senate Minority leader Mitch McConnell appeared on Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace and had many things to say regarding the Obama policies on trying Khalid Sheik Mohammed in NYC, GITMO prisoners, Obamacare in the Senate and having tax payers pay for abortion. McConnell stated that the Senate will not rush the health care bill.

The following are some Mitch McConnell comments from Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace: (full transcript HERE)

With regards to trying KSM in a civilian court in NYC rather than a military tribunal:

MCCONNELL: Unfortunately, we had that very vote on the Lieberman- Lindsey Graham amendment just a week ago, and 54 Democrats voted opposed, frankly, having the trials down in Guantanamo. So it looks to me like the administration is going to do this. They seem to be sort of hell-bent to do it.

I agree with the family of Daniel Pearl. You know, KSM murdered their son. And they said, “Why in the world would we want to give him the show trial that he desires?”

Liz Cheney on FNS: Whoever Leads GOP in 2012 They Will have to be Able to Undo a lot of the Damage that this President has Done

This morning on Fox News Sunday Liz Cheney spoke out and made some blunt and honest statements regarding the horrendous policies of Barack Obama. It is true, who ever leads the GOP in 2013 will have a plethora of fires to put out caused by the socialist agenda of Barack Obama.

It is only a matter of time though as the Gateway Pundit says before Liz Cheney feels what it means to be “Palinized” by the LEFT. Talking the truth against The Chosen One, Barack Obama means she will be branded an extremist, racist and marginalized.

“In terms of 2012, what ever Republicans takes the mantel of our Party in 2012. You know they’re going to have to be able to address these incredible grave challenges we face as a nation. In my view they will have to be able to undo a lot of the damage that this President has done to our national security, to our economy, to our health care system and to our standing around the world.” (Liz Cheney)

Imagine that Barack Obama … the next GOP President will be inheriting your mess. However, rest assured they will not be passing the buck at every opportunity and blaming the past President instead of pulling up their boot straps and taking responsibility to responsibly help “We the People.”

An Inconvenient Health Care Cost Truth from CMS: Obamacare and Wellness Medicine Programs … In the End, It Cost More

An Inconvenient Health Care Cost Truth …

Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and the rest of their minions and state run media have said from the beginning that Obamacare healthcare reform would lower health care costs. They also claimed that slashing $500 billion from Medicare would have no effect on seniors. Oh contraire … Seniors and those concerned with rising health care costs, be very afraid.

It won’t cost trillions of dollars and it will reduce costs

However, from CMS (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services) comes this “Inconvenient Truth” via The Politico … the legislation the House passed last week would increase costs over the next decade by $289 billion. By 2019, health costs would rise to 21.1 percent of GDP compared to 20.8 under current law. (pdf report HERE)

With the exception of the proposed reductions in Medicare payment updates for institutional providers, the provisions of H.R. 3962 would not have a significant impact on future health care cost growth rates. In addition, the longer-term viability of the Medicare update reductions is doubtful,” the report said.

It will lower costs, not raise them and I am not taking money from seniors, really

In other words, outside of Medicare payment cuts to hospitals, the bill doesn’t curb increasing health care costs. And even the Medicare payment cuts will be difficult to sustain.

The analysis is more bad news for Democrats, who are facing increasing criticism that their reforms don’t do enough to control costs. Republicans released the analysis and jumped on the news.

It would appear that Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama have an Inconvenient Truth of their own … wellness programs cost more than treating the disease. This analysis is from a longstanding independent technical advisor to the Executive Branch and Congress. But I supposed they will be demonized and called a racist for providing bad news against Obama’s healthcare reform policy.

Barack Obama Losing the Independents Vote with his Radical LEFT Agenda … Change No One Wanted to Believe In

As Obama’s poll numbers sink, will The One shift right, or march himself, the Democrat Party and America over the cliff? What do the polls show? There is not one critical problem facing the country on which the president has positive ratings. How ya like that “CHANGE” now?

Barack Obama and Democrats are not in trouble in the polls and in the upcoming 2010 and 2012 elections because Republicans are strongly against Obama and his radical agenda. The Obamamessiah and the Democrat party find them self in trouble because INDEPENDENTS are running away from The One and Democrats as fast as they can. The far LEFT, socialist agenda of Obama is hardly what they voted for.

Barack Obama won the Independent vote 52% to 44% over McCain; however, Obama would be hard pressed to get any where near that Independent vote at the present. In the end, Obama by the numbers is poor all the way around.

The economy is the single most important issue to the American public, yet Obama’s answers have done nothing but drive up the federal deficits to record levels, increase unemployment to over 10% and promise nothing but future taxes. 45% of American voters rate Obama’s performance with the economy as poor.  Little by little, the longer Obama is in office, the more “We the People” do not want to hear that it’s GWB’s fault. Obama owns the economy and it is his to fix. That is why he became President. Ultimately, The buck stops with Obama and the childish blame game must come to an end. Man up, or get out.

The WSJ article suggests that with dipping poll numbers and an increasing unemployment number, that Obama would be wise to shift right. However, Obama continues to ignore the will of the people as he forces through his far left agenda in spite of slipping polls.

Obamacare: The Government Control Take Over of Health & the Theft of Your Children, Grand Children and Generations to Come

What President, what Congressman, what political party would do this to children and future generations? Who in good conscience would inflict a $1.3 trillion debt on the people in the midst of a recession with over 10% unemployment?

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America. (US Constitution)

The passage by Nancy Pelosi and the House of Representatives of the latest version of the governments take over of health care in an attempt to control “We the People” not only is a slap in the face of personal liberties provided by the US Constitution, but also places a debt beyond comprehension to future generations. What happened to our civil liberties?

Hat Tip: Vanderbilt – ‘09

In the process of sacrificing the freedoms of our Country, the Radical Reformers are scrambling to rip apart the vision the Constitution provides for us. To finance their unrealistic attempts to remake America (and perhaps the world) to suit their foolish and peculiar aspirations, generations to come are being willfully robbed of their birthrights. We cannot let these Societal Misfits consume our children’s future by spending them into slavery!

How could a government place such a burden upon its people while forcing them to buy their insurance or fear fines and jail time. This is the same Obama government that refuses to imprison illegals, yet would arrest their own citizens for lack of government controlled insurance?

Even though only 29% of American voters would advise their Congressman to vote for Obamacare, Nancy Pelosi and the left wing radicals in the House did so any ways ramming a world of future debt down the throats of future generations, let alone a bad piece of legislation.  In the end, the vote could hardly be considered bi-partisan as only one RINO voted for Obamacare, the Pelosi edition, while 39 Democrats voted against it.

The cost of this healthcare bill will not only be the destruction of private insurance in the United States and enslaving Americans to a government run and controlled option, but the $1.3 trillion mountain of debt that future generations will never be able to pay off. However, since when does the government ever get the cost of any program correct. Just look at the projected costs of Medicare.

CT Senator Joe Lieberman put it best when he said that he would filibuster the bill and never let it come to a final vote because the cost and debt would create a worse problem than any perceived health care issue.

“The public option plan is unnecessary. It has been put forward I am convinced by people who really want the government to take over all of health insurance.”

Worse than that, we have a problem that is even greater than the health care problem and that is the debt.

“If the public option plan is in there, as a matter of conscience, I will not allow this bill to come to a final vote…

The fact of the matter is that Obamacare will not cut costs, it will not improve insurance, it will not cover all the so-called uninsureds  … but it will cost future generations trillions of dollars for years to come. Obamacare will raise taxes on anything moving. How else does anyone really think this will be paid for?

Yet Even More Bad Polling Numbers for Incembent Democrat Controlled Congress from PEW Research

Democrat Polling Numbers … P. YOU! The PEW Research finds that there is an anti-incumbent sentiment heading into the 2010 midterm elections and Obama continues to flounder on pretty much every issue. This coupled with a recent Gallup poll can only spell trouble for Democrats in 2010.

The mood of America is glum. Two-thirds of the public is dissatisfied with the way things are going in the country. Fully nine-in-ten say that national economic conditions are only fair or poor, and nearly two-thirds describe their own finances that way – the most since the summer of 1992. An increasing proportion of Americans say that the war in Afghanistan is not going well, and a plurality continues to oppose the health care reform proposals in Congress.

As Democrat polling numbers continue to slide, what can be looked at as a contributing factor? Can you say Obamacare and the fact that not just Republicans are against it, but many Independents as well. As stated at Hot Air from the polling data from the PEW poll, Among independents who say they support the Republican in their district, 56 percent are excited to vote next year; among indies who support the local Democrat, it’s 32 percent.
