I will give him credit for the location of his (so called) speech that he will read from his two teleprompters. That is that those in the audience will NOT disagree with him because they know better than to disagree with the CIC. He will have people throughout the audience, probably taking names and ranks of ANYONE that does not agree with him. Then who knows what those may have coming to them?

Obama’s center-right agenda will not impress this center-left country, and certainly not the blinded by rage right.

Obama has a “center-right” agenda? What are you talking about?!

I’m interested to know what you think the “Democratic” agenda is. Wow… your spectrum is WAY off…

M… I don’t think that’s what your link says. It pretty much confirms Jim’s statement… a lot of promises, but very few “accomplishments.” And once you add “goals” to “promises,” the number goes even farther down.

>He’s done a lot if you don’t know the difference between promises and accomplishments.

Agreed. Obama has accomplished a lot, regardless of the criticism leveraged towards him:

And the payback begins:

Katie relays the WH talking points…..is this payback for the invitation to the dinner party and having her picture taken with the party crashers.

I don’t personally know anyone under 30 who thinks Obama is doing a good job. He’s still popular…people like him personally, think he’s cool, would love to meet him in person. A lot of young people would give him a “favorable” rating if asked in a poll, for those reasons. But as far as actual job performance, everyone in that age range I know is extremely disappointed so far.

One would have thought this was apparent after Republican-lite Clinton gets eaten alive anyway. How’s that financial deregulation and block-granting social programs to the states working out now, Bill, or how about NAFTA or…?

When will Democrats learn?

The way I see it, ‘Messiahs’ pretty much hit the ground that way. They don’t gradually ‘evolve’ and grow into it. And let’s not forget that the media gave Obama the ‘Christ-like’ aura. I sure didn’t.

As we approach the first year anniversary of “The Coronation”, we will be subjected to even more media adoration. We will again/still be bombarded with a litany of “unprecedented” accomplishments of “The One”, the very most important one being how he guided our chances of future prosperity straight down the swirling porcelain bowl with “unprecedented” speed.

Why isn’t Afghanistan a priority for the left? Why didn’t you mention that as one of his big responsibilities?

But your point is somewhat well taken… IF he starts accomplishing things, opinion that he’s not doing anything will change. But… uhh… that was pretty self evident.

I think once the health care bill passes, and if there’s stronger action taken against the horrible the job numbers, the narrative of his presidency onward will change for the positive.

Ah yes, how much more suckupery can they get? Much more I’m afraid, but I doubt any of them can beat Meachum’s “he is like a god” comment (at least I think it was Meachum).

Did you see the tweets from Katie at the gatecrashed state dinner? Or the ones of Brian? They were swooning. Yup, we can trust them for truth and fact (NOT)!

The liberal elite media suffer from OCS (Obama cult syndrome).

…don’t be surprised if you suddenly start seeing Obama being depicted in Herculean terms in the weeks leading up to his first year anniversary.

Yeah, I won’t be surprised… especially since we’ve been seeing that FOR ABOUT TWO YEARS NOW!

I’m looking forward to the speech. Of course, I’ve been looking forward to his Afghanistan decision for about 3 months now…
