President Obama has class. He is willing to take responsibility even where it is not required. He holds himself to a higher standard than most Presidents in history. That is why the American people trust and like him.
Take responsibility when not required, that's a good one.
Obama has high ratings for one reason, he never takes a stand. Look at Bush, love him or hate him, Bush was a leader. He made the hard decisions he felt were necessary for this country and didn't care if they were unpopular. Obama doesn't lead, doesn't make hard decisions...not even Obamacare, that was all Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. Gay marriage? We all know Biden jiu-jitsued Obama into that one. Gitmo? Still open for business. Osama? The Joint Chiefs forced him into that one.
Obama has been voting present since 2008. He stands around and basks in the glory of being the first black president while his minions and the MSM suck it up.
He doesn't take responsibility for anything. He doesn't lead. He doesn't make decisions people can blame him for. The economy still sucks. People can't get good jobs. The IRS and the DOJ are out of control. But, damn, that's a wonderful president we have.
Who starts the BS threads attacking the president for snoring or other stupid things, can you say umbrella?
The r's, that's who.
We're mocking the pathetic republican partisans.
You're right, we shouldn't - it's like shooting fish in a barrel.
Maybe you can hold congressional hearings over the high price of gas next?
There is a biblical saying "Who God has blessed, let no man curse" that holds true for our current President. He has an uncanny ability to rise above adversity like no other. The more hate that's directed towards him by his political adversaries, the more love he gets from the American people. He is the ultimate survivor -- a man who won two landslide presidential elections against all odds. Maybe this is a consequence of the goodness of his humanity... you know the saying good things happen to good people.
So, you think God has blessed Mr. Obama, a man who has basically spat in the face of God? Recall his statement, "The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam" (may not be exact quote, but close enough). This is a slap in the face to God, and Jesus Christ.

Case in point, a slew of manufactured scandals from the right engineered to make the President look worse than their fallen angel Nixon. "This is sure to do him in" Republicans say to themselves gleefully. "All we have to do is get the media to focus on these fake scandals of ours and the Obama Presidency will be over", they plotted among themselves.
None of these scandals are "manufactured," and we have learned just today that he was illegally looking into one of the White House Correspondent's emails and sources. So much for Freedom of the Press.
We also know that the IRS did not act on it's own in the cases involving the processing of tax exempt applications of Tea Party groups and many others. Those orders likely came directly from the White House. And, these are not "manufactured." They are very real, and we have the proof from those who were unlawfully discriminated against, and whom the IRS had been told to investigate.

With the stock market breaking record highs every day, affordable healthcare becoming a reality for more Americans, unemployment going down, and education becoming more attainable for millions of Americans... Americans have much to be thankful for under Obama. In return Americans have been showing their love for the POTUS:
We have nothing to be thankful for under Obama, and everything to fear.

NIXON'S APPROVAL RATING, EVEN WHEN THE CRIMINAL TRIAL WAS UNDERWAY FOR MEMBERS OF THE WHITE HOUSE STAFF, WAS 51%, WHICH IS THE SAME AS OBAMA'S.
So if you think that Obama is following the same path as Nixon (although actually a little worse than Nixon, as no criminal trials have started yet for members of the Obama staff), then I agree.
I got as far as the word "landslide" and laughed so hard I nearly choked.
I don't know who wrote it, but I'm sure there's an award somewhere for that kind of writing.
Oh yea, I read that on another thread and laughed too.
yep, Liberal media, IRS targeting, oh my... too hard to get a voter ID, dumbed down Americans and lie after lie, promises of free stuff, Julia from cradle to grave and of course, get your obamaphone..
They polled the Obama electorate for sure. You know, "low information" voters.

"Fake" you say? "GOP driven?"
