Barack Obama’s polling free fall continues as he hits a new all-time low in the current USA Today/Gallup poll.
Only 41% of respondents approve of the job Barack Obama is doing as President of the United States. CNM discusses this dramatic turn of events in the following video:
With these incredibly low polling figures, Barack Obama faces the real potential of wandering into the zone of political impotence known as “lame duck” status. The president has already told concerned Democrats that he will distance himself from them as they campaign this fall so as to not bring down their polling numbers with his own low approval ratings.
It is clear that both Barack Obama and his Democrat Party have lost a substantial amount of trust and support with the American public. It remains to be seen how damaging those losses will prove come the 2010 elections in November.
These videos were from Rusty’s show last night 7/20/10. This story seems to be changing by the hour. The Obama Admin after allegedly demanding she resign immediately has now apologized on national TV to her. Also, in a new twist, the San Francisco Examiner has written a story that raised a whole new set of Q’s on Sherrod, including how she was hired at USDA. You can check it out here:
Former Obama Administration official Shirley Sherrod was apparently forced to resign by her superiors following a still-developing bombshell story involving race and the NAACP.
We’ve got a full rundown of the story as it happened last night. We will shortly be following up with another post and more videos as we learned more about the story today.
The information in the following videos reflects CNM’s knowledge of the events in question on Monday night, July 19, 2010.
Since 20 January 2009, our beloved President has been trying to shove down our throats a very strange and detrimental idea of economics.
It can be said that it started as early as September 2008 with President Bush still in office. I’ve been against the idea of bailing out banks and Wall Street with our hard-earned money from the get-go. TARP was a very bad idea. We are not obligated in any way to bail out those entities who made inappropriate decisions in trying to make a buck. Under threat from the federal government, they also inappropriately put people into properties they had absolutely no business in taking on or couldn’t afford. Now, those financial institutions are going belly up because of their own stupidity, not mine.
The current housing bubble burst can be traced as far back as 1999 when President Bill Clinton signed a fair housing act into law. That law should never have seen the light of day. I’m so sick of these mortgage advertisements on the radio. One particular local advertisement features a man with a loud southern accent (some may say he’s a squeaky voice).
Now in 2010, Obama and his cohorts are wanting to pass another stimulus! What in the world was that $800+ billion atrocity he was bawling about in 2009 for? Where are those jobs this administration “saved” or “created?” There are none!
One example of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 is the widening project of U.S. Highway 69 just north and south of Interstate 435 in Overland Park. Yes, that section of highway was in disarray for years, but it has not affected the economy of the Kansas City metropolitan area one bit!
Another example affects me personally. Until recently, one of my relatives worked for a Kansas government department. Stimulus funds were used to help people with assistance in certain situations. It was said that one attorney hired/contracted by the State of Kansas fouled up on a contract considering how to appropriately fund assistance programs for those aforementioned people. This attorney foul-up made the state of Kansas liable for those hundred of thousands of dollars from ARRA.
To help pay that back, this department for whatever reason decided to freeze wages and salaries for its employees for three years. In addition to that, this department was asking for voluntary pay cuts.
Last month, she attended a seminar in the Kansas City area on Martin Luther King, Jr. The presenter asked the audience if they were doing work for the devil or felt they were doing stuff for the devil. She was told by her friend that it was rumored that the Pope refuses to go through Topeka’s airspace because its ZIP codes start with 666 (e.g. 66611 for a section of northeastern Topeka).
That was it for my relative. She quickly cleaned out her desk and quit. She does not regret that decision. As I speak, she may already have a better job locally in Kansas City, Kansas instead of far in Topeka.
So, this so-called stimulus has cost jobs. Not created or saved. Those “created” or “saved” numbers do not add up to a hill of beans. Because of all this waste, this administration is reducing the U.S. Dollar to no more than Monopoly play money!
For me, November 2010 is fast approaching and I cannot wait for 2012, because we need to clean house promptly! Those who are running better wise up because we Americans have had it with the reckless government spending, the shredding of our livelihoods, and the shredding of our Constitution!
Ok, so not really, at least not yet. It’s not so hard to imagine these days that the EPA might put out regulations on how many children we each can have, etc.
Backtracking a moment, this little moment of political hysteria is brought to you thanks to the news that the EPA has identified CO2 as a toxic gas, and therefore legal to be regulated by the green nutjobs in the EPA.
Thank your friend Obama’s regulatory Czar, Cass Sunstein, for this great development in our nation’s history (Sunstein is the guy that wants to outlaw hunting and give animals the right to sue in court). Now, thanks to this ruling, the very air you and I exhale is poisonous (shhh, don’t tell the plants this). Ahhh, change, it brings me such hope…………………..
The early returns from Sarah Palin’s reemergence onto the public stage are in, and Barack Obama and Democrats should be very concerned. Watch the video for more:
Any plans that Obama and other of her opponents had to halt the Palin Momentum have been shattered. Like her or not — and we at Conservative New Media love her — Sarah Palin is a political and cultural force of nature who simply cannot be ignored.
As of late, some officials and politicians have made the most dangerous decision since the terrorist attacks of 11 September 2001. Specifically, the current Attorney General of the United States, Eric Holder, decided to send the perpetrators of 9/11 and of the attack on the U.S.S. Cole to New York City (just blocks from Ground Zero). The accused are best served by having military tribunals at a neutral site such as Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
The Geneva Convention states that prisoners of war are only to be offered legal representation from their native countries at a military tribunal set at a neutral site, not at a civilian trial in one of the affected countries. However, the native countries from which the accused hail do not want to represent them. It is NOT the responsibility of the United States to represent them. Even if they were declared POWs, they cannot be represented by American attorneys. There is no way that a fair trial can be conducted on American soil anyway for the accused!
Also, several members of the current Administration is trying to send the detainees currently at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba to prisons within the U.S. One of prisons that were considered was the federal penitentiary at Fort Leavenworth. This fort is 20 miles from my residence. I feel threatened by this foolish decision. I do not see how residents living near Fort Leavenworth, the prison at Thomson, IL, or the prison being considered in Colorado feel about terrorists being sent to their back yards.
Thus, it seems to me that the aforementioned people have failed to read and understand the Constitution of the United States. In particular, Article III, Section 3 is being grossly violated.
Article III, Section 3 states the following:
“Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.
The Congress shall have Power to declare the Punishment of Treason, but no Attainder of Treason shall work Corruption of Blood, or Forfeiture except during the Life of the Person attainted.”
The two previously mentioned decisions, I believe, are in direct violation of this part of the Constitution. We must hold the Obama Administration to account for these severe compromises in our national security.
