New Poll Shows Majority Disapprove of Obama

Yes, there are some good news in the midst of all this. A new CNN poll shows that Obama's approval rating is not so much a good news for him. The poll reveals that 51% of the 1,030 participants disapprove of the president. Healthcare also received a high negative rating of 56%. The highest negeative was in regards to his handling of the national deficits -- 62%. He doesn't score much higher on the economy either, getting 54% disapproval and 43% approval.

That's right Mr. President, Americans are not fans of central economic planning.

However, Obama does have some approval on the issues of foreign policy and terrorism:  55% view his work there positively, and that figure has gone up by four points since January. However, I would suspect that those numbers will change as more Americans realize he is not finishing these endless wars.

Re: Cloture Vote on Obamacare

I'm up late watching CNN's surprisingly critical coverage of the party-line passage of the cloture bill on debate regarding the "health reform," bill in the Senate. I think their ire may be coming for all the wrong reasons, (establishmentarian David Gergen is whining about how the lack of 'bipartisanship' in the "historic" bill defiles the nation state he worships) though I appreciate it nonetheless. 

But what irritated me most tonight was watching  pro-war Democreep Senators lecture those opposed to the bill about "human rights," and doing things "on principle," regardless of undesirable consequences.  Harry Reid claimed that his conscience is too strong to "look away," when people die from their lack of health care, but he certainly managed to do so when he voted for Bush's war of aggression on Iraq and the resultant mass murder of innocents. You make me sick, Harry -- and your awful "health reform" hasn't even been implemented yet!

By the way, isn't it sleazy how the Dems are trying to ram through this incredibly expensive bill through over the Holiday Season, with the final version perhaps coming on Christmas Eve? This is politics as usual, not change.

Rand and Ron Interviewed Together

While it may be difficult to stomach the necessary GOP pandering to earn a senate seat, it's very exciting to see a kind, gentle non-parasite like Rand Paul interviewed on CNN. Though the questioning here may be dumbed down, at least CNN was polite.
