Obama's 100 day mark is approaching rapidly. But don't you worry .. the lamestream media has already had their '100 day round-up' stories ready for months. In fact, they probably started writing them when Obama was inaugurated. To the statest media in this country, Obama really can't do wrong. No matter what he did or didn't accomplish in this first 100 days, he was going to be compared to the likes of Abraham Lincoln and FDR. He was going to be praised for bringing 'change' to Washington.
Did you happen to see the AP article written by Ron Fournier and Trevor Tompson? Apparently Americans are "high" on Barack Obama and the direction he is taking this country. What? Is PrezBO a controlled substance? Would that it be so!
Are you freaking kidding me? We are talking about a man who has spent trillions of dollars within the first months of his presidency, made America look weak on the world stage, grins at dictators, can't say good morning to his wife without a teleprompter and is over-seeing the largest expansion of the imperial federal government in the history of this nation. You want me to believe that most people out there are OK with this? The parasite/looter class, maybe. Unfortunately, they're making up a bigger and bigger percentage of the total as we go.
I know exactly why Americans are so high on Obama and on the direction of the United States. Government schools. No, seriously, folks. Government schools teach our children to love government. What else would you expect government schools to do? Preach the benefits of the private sector? The people that run these schools are government-trained government employees. What else are they going to do other than teach that government can be the solution to all your problems. That you can rely on the government when you fall on hard times or if you are one of those 'less fortunate' people in this country. Our students are being bred to become Democrat voters .. and Democrats typically adore government. So they don't recognize the hideous job Obama and Pelosi have done thus far.
The pro-Democrat media doesn't help, either. Take a look at some of the language of this AP article. The idolization is comical.
For the first time in years, more Americans than not say the country is headed in the right direction, a sign that Barack Obama has used the first 100 days of his presidency to lift the public's mood and inspire hopes for a brighter future.
Intensely worried about their personal finances and medical expenses, Americans nonetheless appear realistic about the time Obama might need to turn things around, according to an Associated Press-GfK poll. It shows most Americans consider their new president to be a strong, ethical and empathetic leader who is working to change Washington.
Nobody knows how long the honeymoon will last, but Obama has clearly transformed the yes-we-can spirit of his candidacy into a tool of governance ...
So far, Obama has defied the odds by producing a sustained trend toward optimism. It began with his election.
Did you catch all of the words in there? Change ... inspire ... optimism ... yes-we-can spirit ... strong.
I shouldn't be too surprised, though, based on the level of intelligence of the average Obama voter.
