Because all he really cares about is that he is loved by all.
We see him offer the Sec of State position to Hillary even though there are much more qualified people who would probably due a much better job. Gotta shore up those Hillary supporters.
We see a bloated "stimulus" bill get even worse when Obama agrees to include a $500 tax credit for everyone even though this have been proven to be a completely ineffective means for stimulating the economy time and time again (as recently as last year...the $600 check didn't do anything). The only reason he added it in is because he wants bi-partisan support for the bill. He wants fiscal conservatives to like him as well.
He asks Rick Warren to speak at the inauguration to warm up to evangelicals.
All he wants is a high approval rating and his place as a great man in history.
What he doesn't get is that great men of the past showed bold leadership, not a transparent need to please everyone.
If you think it's so unbearably bad or just a trend that somehow going to ruin your life, how about you do us all a favor and end your own life already? Seriously. I'm sick of you just crying & bellyaching like a spoiled 2 year old girl. Get the over and act like a man. ing pussy.
Dont forget to make Obama your desktop and screen saver.
If he doesn't help change the state of the economy for the better, it won't matter how many people "love" him or "like" him, he won't have a high approval rating.
Depends...as long as he's spending, he can say he's trying.
Plus he can just continue to blame Bush.
I have a hard time believing Obama supporters will stop loving him no matter how ineffective he is.
After all, look how much they love him NOW before adding a single bullet point to his list of accomplishments.
Is that number proportional to those who still approved of Bush?
I have a hard time believing Obama haters will stop ing no matter how effective he is.
That maybe true as well. But I dont believe for one second that this stimulus is going to help the economy in any way.
We wont have any real change in the number of people with health care by 2012 (we'll hear "next term").
The housing market will still be a foreclosure mess in 2012.
The deficit and national debt will grow by a larger sum than even Bush added.
All of these things will be fact in 2012.
I have a hard time believing his followers will admit how bad he will be
no Dr -- I imagine that number will far exceed those who still appove of Bush - His subjects are loyal and color blind so to speak.
His speech was all over the place.
He contradicted himself and went from conservative self-responsibility to government will wipe your ass mode.
All in a single bound; he's so dreamy.
Balijunana telling people to stfu when he was the most butthurt over Bush's presidency LOL
Fair answer, but I tend to disagree. I think the percentage of people that voted for/supported Bush who changed stances during his 8 years will be similar to Obama's if he does the bang-up job Bush did.
But thats just an opinion.
We can re-visit this on an annual basis then and see how it is holding up. Give me the over.
Obama speaks the words that OTHERS write for him very well sons. now its time for him to actually do something.
who is that girl ?
lol sons if I had a dime for every time I have been asked this ..... Gina Carano
I will send you a dime
Ha. Good answer. But I still disagree. Partisanship is alive and well in this country. Reason, facts, progress and derision be damned!
you cant have the over too....
As if Bush wasn't once loved by the entire nation. Obama's got nothing on Bush's popularity after 9/11 (until he started ing it up in Iraq).
Thats what Im saying. He's trying too hard to mass appeal to all audiences.
Thats not leadership.
Great men of the past forged alliances and held together shaky alliances all the time, and were considered great in no small part because of this skill.
Don't confuse respect and acknowledgement of ones opponents with insecurity.
You would criticize him either way anyways. If he had done none of these things you would have called him a hypocrite for not living up to his pledge of reaching across the aisle, and said he will fail when people realize what a hypocrite he is.
If I thought for a minute that you would give the guy a fair shake, and hadn't made up your mind ahead of time no matter what he does, I might give a squirt of piss for your opinion.
As it is, the childish "he will fail" on the first day of his presidency is just, well... childish.
Another bleeding ass thread.
That's right, Obama needs to be more like me. You know, the guy that boldly led us into unecessary war, the guy who sent you all $600, not a puny $500, the guy who aligned himself with right-wing neocon theologians, who gave the FEMA job to an unqualified buddy, let my Secretary of Defense and VP dictate policy ... a great man like me! Screw the ratings - it's all about doing whatever you wanna do no matter how stupid it is.
It's also good to see you spell "due" as good as me.
