Not that the mainstream media would ever report this….Obama, not so loved…

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/politics_nation/2009/07/obama_third_least_popular_pres.html

Even Obama’s biggest supporters at my work are keeping their heads down lately….

it’s not much harder to find an Obama voter whos getting way more liberalism than a Dubya voter who got just a little less conservatism than they bargained for

this country isnt quite over the ledge yet…..Obama had to push the agendas through because the promises cant be kept
and America is beginning to notice….

The media says hes the smartest most beloved President ever….
ehh, not so much mi amigo

heres the article referenced above….
A new USA Today/Gallup poll puts President Obama’s approval rating at 55 percent, which ranks him 10th among 12 post-World War II presidents at the same point in the survey. His approval is down from 61 percent in late May.

As he seeks to regain momentum on the health care front, the survey finds that only 44 percent approve of his handling of the issue, with 50 percent disapproving. Also, 59 percent say his proposal would lead to too much government spending, and 52 percent say it would “call for too much expansion of government power.”

During his briefing, Robert Gibbs referred the 59 percent approval rating in the Washington Post/ABC poll as a “pretty darn good number for six months in.”

Most open administration ever…? Reporters sworn to secrecy about July 4th with Obama

wanna know why youll never get the truth from 90% of reporters today, besides the fact theyre mostly burned out hippie left overs from the 1960s?

Reporters from roughly 30 television networks, newspapers, magazines, and web sites celebrated the Fourth of July with Barack Obama at the White House last weekend. Why didn’t you know that? Because they were sworn to secrecy.

We reported yesterday that Politico’s Mike Allen was spotted milling about as a guest at the White House’s “backyard bash” by the pool reporter, who was allowed into the event for 40 minutes and kept in a pen before being ushered out. When Allen quoted from the pool report in his Playbook column the next day, he deleted a reference to his own name and didn’t bother to tell his readers that he was actually at the party.

Well, he wasn’t alone. Gawker has learned that the White House gave tickets to virtually every major news organization that covers the president—the New York Times, Washington Post, Newsweek, Time, ABC News, NBC News, CNN, CBS News, and so on, about 30 in all. The reporters were invited to attend on the following condition:
“You are being invited to attend this event as a guest. Blogging, Twittering or otherwise reporting on this event is not permitted. If you feel that you cannot agree to abide by these ground rules, please don’t claim a ticket.”
That’s right: Much of the White House press corps spent the Fourth schmoozing with White House staffers, catching performances by the Foo Fighters and Jimmy Fallon, and watching the fireworks from the most exclusive vantage point in the D.C. metro area, all off the record—not to mention off-the-Facebook and off-the-Twitter.
These are the same people who just a week ago were whining in the press briefing about Obama’s malicious and dastardly attempts to “control the press.” (Well, not the self-same people—we’re not sure if Chip Reid and Helen Thomas, the primary antagonists in that exchange, were in attendance.)
Even if you weren’t a fan of Obama (or a fan of picnics, or the Foo Fighters), an ambitious reporter might take the tickets just to get some off-the-record schmoozing in with people they’d like to line up as sources. It would be nice to know which ones who daily pledge to uphold the “people’s right to know” attended and accepted the pledges of secrecy.

open administration?????? you be the judge….
criminal lack of journalism on the government hijacking america…..you betcha!

Admitted Media Bias…right from a reporters mouth

http://newsbusters.org/blogs/tim-graham/2009/07/10/reporter-we-took-sides-straight-simple-against-palin

52% of America should be very mad at the level of journalism in the last election cycle….
you didnt get near the whole story as people are starting to admit

hundreds of reporters in Alaska digging up nothing more than a dismissed ethics claim known as troopergate…..
but Biden’s family making millions of dollars off him being senator, well that wasnt important enough to report….and neither was Bidens own words about how being President wasnt a job that lends itself to on the job training….as he said about Obama in the primaries….

heres some article highlights

On AOL Politics Daily, long-time White House reporter Carl Cannon bluntly declared that the political press gave Sarah Palin a raw deal in the 2008 campaign, and seriously failed to scrutinize Joe Biden, especially his fact-mangling and odd statements in the vice presidential debate. Cannon summed up

In the 2008 election, we took sides, straight and simple, particularly with regard to the vice presidential race. I don’t know that we played a decisive role in that campaign, and I’m not saying the better side lost. What I am saying is that we simply didn’t hold Joe Biden to the same standard as Sarah Palin, and for me, the real loser in this sordid tale is my chosen profession.

Cannon suggested female journalists failed to make up for male sexism in Palin coverage because she didn’t match the kind of Hillary Clinton candidate they wanted to represent women in politics:
From the beginning, and for the ensuing 10 months, the coverage of this governor consisted of a steamy stew of cultural elitism and partisanship. The overt sexism of some male commentators wasn’t countered, as one might have expected, by their female counterparts. Women columnists turned on Sarah Palin rather quickly. A plain-speaking, moose-hunting, Bible-thumping, pro-life, self-described “hockey mom” with five children and movie star looks with only a passing interest in foreign policy — that wasn’t the woman journalism’s reigning feminists had envisioned for the glass ceiling-breaking role of First Female President (or Vice President). Hillary Rodham Clinton was more like what they had in mind – and Sarah, well, she was the un-Hillary.

The article is a fascinating read for the LONG list of errors Biden had in the VP debate, but got a pass on….
