Gallup: Barack Obama Falls to 43% Approval Rating as the Walls of Obama are Crumbling
From Gallup comes the following … President Barack Obama approval rating falls to 43%. One has to wonder how his approval rating does not fall even lower with continued poor job reports, 8.2% unemployment, record number of Americans on food stamps, millions of Americans no longer in the work force, record federal debt, a failed $787 billion stimulus bill, Obama evoking executive privilege with ‘Fast & Furious’ docs in stonewalling the family of murdered border agent Brian Terry and on the verge of the SCOTUS either declaring the ‘individual mandate’ Unconstitutional or the entire Obamacare law.

Barack Obama Sets Another Milestone … Plays His 100th Round of Golf Since He Took Office … VIDEO of Axelrod Calling GHWB Bush ‘out of touch’ for Playing Golf in Bad Economy
100th round of golf for Barack Obama as President, subtitled … The POTUS Putters and the economy sputters and 15 million out of work Americans mutter.
President Barack Obama has hit they century mark in rounds of gold played as President of the United States. UNREAL. As 15+ million Americans are out of work, 8.2% are unemployed, 13.6% Blacks unemployed, 11.0% Hispanics unemployed, discouraged workers rose as well, swelling to 14.8%, and the US debt continued to rise to a near $15.8 trillion … the out of touch President who thinks the private sector is doing fine plays yet another round of golf.
Sorry, but there is no way that Obama or his minions can make claims that Romney is out of touch with the American people. How clueless could one president possibly be? As Weasel Zippers says, “Because why should a horrific economy and a bloody war stop him from hitting the links?”
But let’s cut BO some slack, after all fundraising and disregarding the US Constitution is a hard job. What disregard Obama has for Americans who struggle to put food on the table and keep a roof over their head. Since Obama is so good at playing the race card and pitting the wealthy vs. the middle class and the poor … just curious Black, Hispanic and Blue collar America, how many rounds of golf did you play in the last 4 years? Hmm?
Obama has already played golf eight times this year. He actually is a little off his normal pace – perhaps campaigning is intruding on golf. The president golfed 28 times in 2009, 30 times in 2010, and an incredible 34 times in 2011.
Obama’s golfing takes about five hours, including the motorcades back and forth from the fairways. If one thinks of this as taking up much of the day – include getting ready to go and cooling off afterward – its fair to say that Obama has spent more than three months of his presidency golfing.
UPDATE I: Oh the hypocrisy of the LEFT … from 1994 comes a VIDEO of Obama’s top adviser David Axelrod calling Bush 41 out of touch for playing golf in a bad economy.
Video from 1994 has surfaced of David Axelrod, President Obama’s chief campaign strategist, calling former President George H.W. Bush “out of touch” for “tastelessly” playing golf while trying to convince voters that the economy is improving.
“Bush tastelessly did it, often from the ninth hole, and from the cigar boat and other places,” Axelrod said.
Added the adviser: “The impression you got was that he was out of touch.”

So How Does Obama’s Young Illegal Immigrants’ Amnesty Affect Competition for Jobs & College With Legal Americans?
Barack Obama, when you can’t run on the past 3+ failed years, 8.2% unemployment, record number of Americans on food stamps, a failed $787 billion stimulus plan, failed green energy companies, Obamacare and a terrible job recovery plan … you conquer, divide, play another race card and change the narrative strictly for political reasons.
Barack Obama, the Politician in Chief turned his back on America and the US Constitution so to pander to Hispanics for his reelection. Thus the reason why a President should never be allowed to make a unilateral change in immigration policy … when its done 100% for political reelection reasons, damn the American economy and actual legal Americans.
‘Barack Obama does not even believe he has the authority to grant amnesty to certain illegals by executive order’
President Barack Obama bypassed Congress and changed immigration policy for a segment of the “illegal” immigrants on Friday with his passage of an Executive order offering legal status to some undocumented immigrants under the age of 30. Forget whether Obama had the right to make such a law and single out a specific group of people, what about the affects that such a “political” act will have on the economy, and those legal Americans to compete for jobs and education? Suddenly 85,000, maybe more, work permits are going to be given to “illegals” and flood the market.
President Obama has just opened a floodgate of opportunity for young illegal immigrants in the United States, but could it squeeze the aspirations of legal Americans in the process?

Hypocrisy: Obama Campaign Checks IDs At The Door For Speech, But Obama & Dems Against Voter ID Laws … MSM Says Obama Speech a Disasterous Failure
So Obama thinks the security of the President is more important than the security of the ballot box? Sorry, but both are just as important.
Why did Barack Obama discriminate against the people who came to see him speak at Cuyahoga Community College? Talk about your typical Barack Obama and Democrat hypocrisy, President Obama’s presidential campaign checked the identification of the supporters attending Obama’s “blame Bush I am responsible for nothing” event at Cuyahoga Community College. Photo ID was required, yet no where on the ticket did it say such. Furthermore, Obama is dead set against Voter ID laws that require an individual to provide proof before voting.
Barack Obama: “Hypocrisy & Change”
President Barack Obama’s presidential campaign checked the identification of the supporters attending Obama’s “framing” event at Cuyahoga Community College today.
The 1,500 supporters in attendance picked up tickets at campaign offices in Northeast Ohio beginning on Monday, though tickets to the event made no mention of an ID requirement.
Jessica Kershaw, the Obama campaign’s Ohio Press Secretary, confirmed in a statement to BuzzFeed that the campaign checked every supporter’s identification at the door.
“We checked every ID at the door to make sure it matched with the name on the ticket that supporters filled out,” she said. “We did this for every person who came in.”
The Obama campaign has faced infiltrators from the Romney campaign, which has deployed aides and volunteers to blend in with supporters and attend Obama events.
According to Obama and Democrats, this would bee deemed entry discrimination. As the Lonely Conservative states, Obama better hope that Eric Holder does not get wind of this, or “The One” shall face a lawsuit.
Needless to say, Obama’s so-called economic speech was a bust.What did anyone really think Obama was going to present but more of the same, lame, blame game talking points? Obama’s Obamanomics has been a disaster and his plan is just more of the same.
Prior to President Barack Obama’s marathon 54 minute speech in Ohio today, the Obama campaign sent our several statements promising the speech would be a major address framing the campaign going forward. Despite the hype, the speech was mainly a rehash of themes and ideas from the president’s recent stump speeches and his remarks were widely panned as overly long by the political press corps.
Interestingly enough the MSM, Obama’s own lapdogs, were disappointed and begged him to stop. Check out the tweets HERE. Also, MSM tweets at NewsBusters.
Mike O’Brien@mpoindc
In terms of politics, this speech could have ended about 20 minutes ago. Drive your message, take your ball, go home.Zeke Miller@ZekeJMiller
There is nothing new in this speech.
Even uber-liberal, and Far Left MSNBC said, MSNBC Panel’s Verdict On Obama Campaign Speech: It Stinks.Guess what America, the reason why Obama’s message stunk, is because Obama’s vision on the economy stinks!!! Barack Obama does not have a clue how to get Americans back to work and after nearly four years of failure I doubt whether he even cares to. No one can be this inept. At some point his lack of jobs vision has to be purposeful.
“I thought this, honestly, was one of the least successful speeches I’ve seen Barack Obama give in several years,” said Newsweek editor Jonathan Alter. “It was long winded. He had a good argument to make, and at the beginning of the speech he seemed to be making it in a fairly compelling way but then he lost the thread.”
Alter said he thought the speech was “way too long” and Obama had “lost the audience by the end.”

Barack Obama Heads to Ohio to Pander to Voters, Blame Bush to Explain How the Private Sector is Doing Fine, Bad or Whatever his Opinion is Today
THE OBAMA PANDERING IS BACK AT IT AGAIN IN OHIO …
President Barack Obama heads back to the swing state of Ohio to pander to the voters, reset his comment that he believes the “private sector is doing fine”, blame George W. Bush and whine about being left with the bill after the GOP dined and shined, when the reality is that Obama then ordered trillions of dollars of more food and left the bill with American tax payers. Hey Obama, how about some cheese with that whine. Supposedly Obama is going to ask for more time to implement more of his failed policies and ask to spend waste even more tax payer dollars in stimulus. Bottom line … America cannot afford 4 more years f Obama.
Just remember to yourself when Obama is making all these ridiculous comments to the middle class about the the evil rich, Obama is later going to an $80K a plate fundraiser later in the day.
President Obama has picked the key swing state of Ohio to deliver a speech Thursday he hopes will serve as a reset button for a campaign that has begun to struggle.
Obama and his presumptive Republican opponent, Mitt Romney, will converge on the state at dueling campaign events set to take place within an hour of each other.
Ohio is a crucial battleground for both candidates but particularly for Romney, who on Wednesday aggressively sought to prevent Obama from going on the offensive after the president’s recent stumbles.
Obama’s speech — which will take place at the Cuyahoga Community College Recreation Center in Cleveland — is expected to frame the campaign and set the tone for the comings months, aides say.
“He will crystallize the argument as to what this campaign is about,” said one Obama aide, adding that Obama is expected to reiterate the need to boost the public sector and put firefighters, police officers and teachers back to work.
Obama will also cast Romney’s policies as a return to the years of former President George W. Bush, which Obama’s team says would include “more budget-busting tax cuts for the wealthy and fewer rules for Wall Street.”
As Jammie Wearing Fool reminds us, as soon as Obama spews his blame game, the buck stops with some else and I need another 4 years to devastate America speech in Ohio, he will head off to live “la vita loca’ and mingle with the NY elites to an $80,000 a plate fund raiser while causing total gridlock in NYC.
Its Barack Obama “HYPOCRISY” day. First he panders and pretends to care about average, blue collar, middle class workers … then he jet-sets off to NYC to hang with Sarah Jessica Parker and Anna Wintour for an $80,000 a plate fundraiser.
The Sex and the City star will hold the $80,000-a-head dinner in aid of Obama’s ongoing re-election campaign, with Wintour as her co-host at the event which has been called ‘A New York Night’. Both are fervent supporters of Barack Obama, so much so that rumors have been swirling that Wintour may be after the diplomatic post of US ambassador to London – although the US Vogue editor has reportedly denied this.
Oh and by the way, more poor economic numbers today … Jobless claims also rose more than expected, climbing to 386,000 for the week, while the current account deficit also expanded.
Your time is up Mr. President … America cannot afford 4 ore years of your nonsense.
