This is on another post but this deserves it's own.
As stated before, the majority of Americans self describe as Conservative.
According to GALLUP, 40% of Americans (up from last year) are Conservative, 36% are moderate, and only 20% are liberal.
http://www.gallup.com/poll/123854/conservatives-maintain-edge-top-ideological-group.aspx
Last year when elected 43% of Americans thought he was a LEFTIST. Now, only 1 year later that number has JUMPED TO 54%
"A majority of Americans now see President Barack Obama as governing from the left. Specifically, 54% say his policies as president have been mostly liberal while 34% call them mostly moderate. This contrasts with public expectations right after Obama's election a year ago, when as many expected him to be moderate as to be liberal."
http://www.gallup.com/poll/124094/Majority-Say-Obama-Policies-Mostly-Liberal.aspx
Americans, thankfully, are not liberal loons. The voters who voted for the cool, supposedly moderate, Obama are waking up to this disaster.
Also from the article
Bottom Line
President Obama is not enjoying the same broad appeal and centrist image that he did in the afterglow of his election last November. Although a majority of Americans continue to view him favorably, this percentage has declined. The common perception that he would govern as a moderate has given way to a heightened belief that Obama's policies are mostly liberal. (Interpreted in the light of Americans' generally conservative leanings, this could be a problem for Obama politically.) And whereas in April most Americans believed he was sticking to the promises he made during the campaign, fewer than half now say that's the case.
These findings are reinforced by Obama's subdued job approval rating, which has been consistently tracking in the low 50s over the last several months. They also conform with Gallup findings reported earlier this week indicating that, compared to a year ago, Americans have generally lost hope that Obama can heal political divisions in the country or control federal spending, and are less optimistic about his ability to accomplish a number of other important goals.
As long as Obama's overall job approval rating remains above 50%, these setbacks would seem to be tolerable in a political sense -- perhaps indicating nothing more than the cost of bold leadership at a difficult time for the country. But should he fall well below that important threshold in public support over a sustained period, the findings may point to weaknesses Obama may need to address.

Everyone has a time they're willing to give him...The more kool-aid they drank, the longer they'll give him, more than 1/2 are sick of the lies and feel used by him... |

what real time facts are we ignoring?
the fact that a majority of Americans do not want socialized health care? The fact that Obama's stimulus failed. The fact that our national debt is out of control. The fact that our commander in chief is ignoring the military commander HE PICKED to lead the fight in Afghanistan. The fact that 2 states that overwhelmingly voted for Obama just 12 months ago voted for the Republican party overwhelmingly just this week.

A military person asks for more of everything...you have never heard them say...shiit I have too many people, here take some back...
Also, his job is to look at his picture...his boss...his POTUS...Obama job is too look at the bigger picture.
You also had lots of former commanders come out to say 40K wont do much in the long term.
Maybe if Bush didnt always say sure whatever you want...we wouldnt be in this mess in the first place. |

I voted for Obama i am not a liberal not a progressive, all this name calling belongs in the first grade! a president can not be elected by liberals, it need independents to be elected, most of the nation is in the center...I am an independent, leaning libertarian, turn off by the lack of class, stupidity and selfishness of the right....And most importantly using the name of God in vain, that is my biggest turn of as a christian...And the fact is he inherited this mess...But so far he is failing to correct it by trying to please everybody...Would i vote for him again, no until he steps up to the plate, but the alternative hockobee, palin, makes me want to$%@$%$#, Romney is the only decent one, but to much wishi washi... |

Well there's a new one! How the hell does calling someone a commie = racist? You really are one mentally challenged individual. Unfortunately around here you and a few others seem to think that disagreeing with or refusing to support a minority is racism, but guess what? Nobody gives a shiit what you think! |

Rude,
"The old 8 years, blame Bush crap. The commie has done more damage in 10 months than Bush could do in a lifetime. He is THE leftist fail."
This statement and many others he has made...make where his views come from pretty clear.
Really in 9 months worst than Bush could do in a lifetime...I have about 5k deaths to prove him wrong with.

Your attempt at defending the worst president in recent memory reeks of desperation as you ignorantly, inappropriately and ineffectively use the race card. Which in my book makes you the racist, as race is the most important consideration for them (racists).
He has done more economic damage in 10 months than all of the presidents in the last twenty years, perhaps longer. Your tired play of the war issue is also noted. A war that your lib comrades approved in Congress. But you conveniently forget that. Perhaps your racist blinders keep you ignorant of facts but that's ok. If I have the time, I'll put you in touch with reality every now and then. Just like now.
Actually I have pity for people like you, who live in such a small world, you see fit to boil everything down to race. Whether contextually correct or not. And in this case, it's use is clearly out of context.
The guy in the white house is a major fail regardless of ethnicity or race. Tough to swallow huh?

On and on and on like your run on sentences? By the way.... putting LAMO!! after every post doesn't make it a joke, it just indicates your inability to accept your age. Seriously, I feel like I'm reading a post written by my 18 year old cousin. At least she knows how to articulate coherent sentences with puncuation.

Craig did you really use the term 'hate speech'. Do you want to censor it too?
I can't stand how the left thinks they can censor the 1st amendment.
Let me be clear, THERE IS NOT SUCH THING AS HATE SPEECH, only FREE SPEECH.
If you want to go yell n-word 1000 times it is not hate speech, you are retarded and deserve to get your butt kicked, but it is NOT hate speech. THERE IS NO HATE SPEECH only FREE SPEECH |

| The guy is way off the charts as left as they come. Anyone with half a brain also knows this guy is bad for a good economy. He hasn't gotten out of campaign mode. This arrogant, unpatriotic jacka_ _ was supposedly watching a documentary about himself on Tuesday night. It didn't matter that Corzine got his a_ _ whipped after the zero spent a slew of taxpayer dollars going up there to help get him another term. |
