Just doing my citizen's duty.:-$

The rating numbers listed below are misleading. They are comparing "apples and oranges". More meaningful numbers are the ones rating president's performance after the 1st year in office. Using that measurement, Obama's numbers are some of the lowest in recent memory.

Natan, are you taking about the article I posted , or something else?
The article below is not about Obama ratings. It's about the major biases in the media exposed during 2009.

Sorry, Maria. I was commenting on post as of 16.12.2009 18:43. Didn't realize it's 10 days old....

Natan, Obamas's ratings in May were higher than those of both Bushes... Reagan had the same approval ratings as Obama, at the end of his first year. Baby Bush on the other hand,was at 90% after 9/11 - but he wound up almostdestroying this country. Tough decisions are never popular, that's because most people aren't smart enough torealize what's good for them. It's like children hating their parents for giving them medicine or making them do their homework.

очень хорошая притча:


к Путину пришел дух Сталина, Путин и спрашивает...что делать? когда
в стране развал, Путин в отчаянии, и вдруг в Кремле появляется призрак Сталина. Путин спрашивает его:
что делать? Сталин отвечает: расстрелять демократов и перекрасить Кремль в голубой цвет.
- А почему в голубой? - спрашивает Путин.
- Я знал, что дискуссия будет только по второму вопросу, - отвечает Сталин. ;-)

I like the theory that we hate Obama because we are bunch of little kids and he is acting as our parent!?? (fr)
I'd rather be an orphan or a foster child than have a daddy like BO..and he is rather like a drug-addict-daddy who comes in the middle of the night to his grown-up kids and steals their money for his lunatic ideas...:-|

Lina, you are confused a lot more. BO stole 5 times the amount GW stole. BO is a much bigger thief.
In fact, he is the Thief-in -Chief.:-|

this argument seems to come up in every discussion..
i say "shitting on the floor is much better then pissing on the floor, but it does not make pissing on the floor good"

Yeh, tell it to Lina. She thinks shitting is not even better, but just wonderful.
I don't know who says peeing on the floor is good? Do you?
