The reason this president’s approval rating has collapsed should be pretty obvious if we just look back at how he was treated in years prior. He was rarely if ever, truly challenged on his what his true motives are. Some of what he has said have lead some to believe the guy is a socialist. If he is, we should know. If he isn’t, we should know what’s changed his mind. But rarely was President Obama ever scrutinized. I firmly believe that if Obama had been properly scrutinized, perhaps even half as much as Sarah Palin (Who I am not a fan of) then he’d NOT be our President right now. Hillary Clinton would be.
It’s not unlike a snobby rich kid with a huge ego who escalates to the top too quickly and has not been challenged or tested. Or like the New England Patriots undefeated run to the Superbowl. When you’ve not been challenged it takes awhile to learn how to handle it when you are. When you add in the fact that this President has socialistic motives and principles that he cannot admit, then you have a man who has trapped himself. He can’t ever state the real reasons why he wants health care reform so he pretends he wants it to save money. Another bullshit claim. Again, borne of the fact that he can’t utter his TRUE motives. He’s trapped himself in a web of dishonesty, arrogance and illusion.
Needless to say this administration has mishandled just about every challenge that’s been thrown at it. The “war” they declared on Foxnews was obviously nothing more than a way to avoid and/or ignore the substance of some of the charges being made by (primarily) Glenn Beck. As usual with this President, when you try to pin them down on what they actually believe they ignore the question and evidence that tells you their motives, and instead simply attack the messenger. Why? Again, Obama cannot admit his true principles or motives at play.
He really has bought his own bullshit. So much so that it’s comically impossible for him to analyze his own failures. Take a look at this video of our President trying to justify voter backlash against his agenda;
This is not only sad, it’s almost narcissistic. While it could be said that voters ARE mad (in general) about the last 8 years. It cannot be said that, that is why Massachusetts would vote for the one REPUBLICAN who can stop the Presidents own health care plan. Again, he’s untested. Unproven.
He’s the Tony Mandarich of politics.
