Rising confidence bodes well long term for Obama, economy… if it can be sustained

from the delusion neo-cons will be:
- any improvements are from the the Reagan policies
- tax cuts from Bush are fixing the economy
- the surge is starting to work
- we are starting to more back to core conservative values.

Nice glamour shot, Jay. Looks as if pollster.com is letting ACORN select the sample. One certainly could not divine this growing confidence from negative chatter from even the most leftist of the Liberaliban tents, the Washington Post and NY (almost outta)Times

Always happy to help, Jay B.

The headline is meaningless by the way.You should have stepped out on the ledge and left out the weasel words after the ellipses.

I’ts getting uglier and uglier on the right. Rush is nearly apoplectic,
BOR already is, Malkin is calling Obama the worst President ever, Hannity is hysterical, freepers are going bonkers, the wingnuttiest
of the wingnuts here are more vitriolic than ever, some GOP rep is talkin about insurgency and learning from the Taliban.

And still they have not learned the lesson of the last election.

Obama is trusted and well liked by a large majoity of Americans. We are going to cut him some slack.

And just as during the election process, attacks on a man most see as decent and brilliant, backfire.

Keep it up dudes, you’ll figure out you’re burning your last bridge sometime – or maybe not.

Ah, Karma.

Mrs. Godzilla,
Huffington Post? Are you kidding me? You may as well post something from Ms. Smiths Kindergarten class. Most of the idiots on that site are Hollywood actors who pretend that they run the country.

Goodbye, America! It Was Fun While It Lasted

by Ann Coulter

It’s bad enough when illiterate jurors issue damages awards in the billions of dollars because they don’t grasp the difference between a million and a billion. Now it turns out the Democrats don’t know the difference between a million and a trillion.

Why not make the “stimulus bill” a kazillion dollars?

All Americans who work for a living, or who plan to work for a living sometime in the next century, are about to be stuck with a trillion-dollar bill to fund yet more oppressive government bureaucracies. Or as I call it, a trillion dollars and change.

The stimulus bill isn’t as bad as we had expected — it’s much worse. Instead of merely creating useless, make-work jobs digging ditches — or “shovel-ready,” in the Democrats’ felicitous phrase — the “stimulus” bill will create an endless army of government bureaucrats aggressively intervening in our lives. Instead of digging ditches, American taxpayers will be digging our own graves.

There are hundreds of examples in the 800-page “stimulus” bill, but here are just two.

First, the welfare bureaucrats are coming back.

For half a century, the welfare establishment had the bright idea to pay women to have children out of wedlock. Following the iron laws of economics — subsidize something, you get more of it; tax it, you get less of it — the number of children being born out of wedlock skyrocketed.

Commie,
Ann Coulter?

Mrs. Godzilla,
I knew you’d get a kick out of that. LOL!

KKK Management,

Ok, how is this supposed to stimulate the economy? I wish I were this mouse.

Pelosi’s mouse slated for $30M slice of cheese

S.A. Miller

Talk about a pet project. A tiny mouse with the longtime backing of a political giant may soon reap the benefits of the economic-stimulus package.

Lawmakers and administration officials divulged Wednesday that the $789 billion economic stimulus bill being finalized behind closed doors in Congress includes $30 million for wetlands restoration that the Obama administration intends to spend in the San Francisco Bay Area to protect, among other things, the endangered salt marsh harvest mouse.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi represents the city of San Francisco and has previously championed preserving the mouse’s habitat in the Bay Area.

The revelation immediately became a political football, as Republicans accused Democrats of reneging on a promise to keep so-called earmarks that fund lawmakers’ favorite projects out of the legislation. Democrats, including Mrs. Pelosi, countered that the accusations were fabricated.

TnGelding,
that’s what I’m afraid of. Giving PresBo a chance.

Mrs. Godzilla,
you forgot to add Rizo from Muppets. Pretty funny mouse but not worth 30 million. Didn’t Mighty Mouse get caught doing Coke?

House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) on Thursday dismissed Republican complaints about not being able to “write exactly half of every bill” as a “deeply elitist idea.” These elitist Do Nothing Republicans just have to face up to the fact that they are the minority party. They don’t run things any more. But, they should feel free to moan and groan about that. I enjoy the cheap entertainment.

Another fine example of not if a project is worthy, just if a stimulus package, not the regular appropriation process, is the proper venue.

Somehow, I never thought of a guy traveling from an airport or hotel room to a speaking location in an SUV as a ‘pragmatist.’

Was there another web site of Funny Liberal Democrat Definitions you didn’t tell me about?

And the added benefit is, you’d be more popular. People are always happier when those around them cut the steak instead of when they cut the cheese!

It’s actually a new and better example of spending to stimulate the economy that has long term benefits.

I’m not surpised you don’t see the former VP in an SUV as a pragmatist.
Perhaps, he should be riding a bike, but the Secret Service might object.

If there is a Democratic definitions website, I would think that it is your responsibilty to find it.

Aahhh, yes, any tiny little glimmer of hope is now proof positive that baraKKK is indeed a blessing on mankind, where once the same news would have produced heaping mountains of bile and disdain from the kook left wing, I wonder what has “changed,” hmmm?

I wouldn’t get so gleeful just yet-

1) The stock market is forward looking and if another plummet of the Dow today is any indication, they do not like what they see.

2) Lower gas and energy prices are the same thing as a tax cut, and sure enough, surprise, surprise, consumer spending is up, gee, who would have thought?

Problem is, the goon left and their junk science environmental terrorists are in charge so you can kiss this blessing good bye, they are itching to deny domestic energy production and longing to kick in some new taxes, I say summer 09 will be the glorious return of 4 dollars a gallon.

Hello depression.

3) People getting laid off by the gads are not going to be spending the way the left is “praying” that they will, regardless if baraKKK heaps the big 8 dollah a week bounty on them or not.

What did we lose last month, something like 600,000 irresponsible, wasteful and resource hogging spenders from the economy?

Imagine how that effect will feel.

Oww!

I seem to remember a time not-so-long ago when the mere criticism of George W. Bush was enough to qualify you as an America-hater, a terrorist sympathizer, or worse. Yes, the wingnuts were in control back then, and they loved their President with a fanaticism seldom seen around these parts, and damn you to hell if you disagreed.

Well, folks, the tables have turned, the criticism turned out to be accurate, it cost the Republicans the Congress and the presidency, and now, just a handful of weeks in, the wingnuts are now vilifying our new Commander in Chief with such rancor that it’s disturbing to the vast majority of us who voted him into office in the first place.

We are still at war. The President is still the Commander in Chief. And the wingnut BO Hate Club is showing its true colors – colors they created themselves: they hate America, they want the terrorists to win, and they need to leave our great nation if they don’t stand with our President.
