What will it take for the MSM to call it a good month for Gov. Romney?
First, let us review this chart of the Gallup tracking poll. HT to the PJ Tatler
Now the left leaning MSM/DNC has been calling the past month a “bad month” for Gov. Romney. I don’t think the word “bad” means what they think it means.
Keep in mind that this is the Gallup poll, not the historically more accurate Rasmussen poll. It is also a poll of registered voters, not likely voters. Add to that the historic trend of Gallup and most other polls over ratting Obama by several points.
Given all that, plus what is charitably called a “lackluster” recovery that is in danger of slipping back into a recession, it looks like polls, like this Gallup poll, are being carefully crafted to try and make the MSM/DNC label of a “bad month” for Gov. Romney appear to be true. Even with them cooking the books, this polls shows a challenger running dead even with an incumbent President with the election less than two months away.
Keep in mind, most polls had Jimmy Carter, the worst President of the latter half of the 2oth Century, four points ahead of Ronald Reagan at this point in the 1980 election.

HT to Ace for this one. Color me not surprised The Obama regime has been anything but “open and transparent” in their actions, legal and illegal.
Internal Department of Justice emails obtained by The Daily Caller show Attorney General Eric Holder’s communications staff has collaborated with the left-wing advocacy group Media Matters for America in an attempt to quell news stories about scandals plaguing Holder and America’s top law enforcement agency.
Taking a look at the Obama Economy
Filed under: economy, Obama Economy, Our Dear Leader, Politics
It’s time again to take a look at the state of the US economy under the so called “guidance” of our Dear Leader.
As you can see we are still at an unemployment level that is much higher than what the Obama economic team promised us it would be if the federal government did nothing, and even higher still than what they claimed it would be if we passed the trillion dollar “stimulus” package. So, not only epic fail on the part of the Obama so called “economic team”, but actual evidence of incompetence is pretty damn clear.
It’s also pretty clear that they are trying to “cook the books” in order to hide their massive pooch screwing of the economy.
Let’s look at that unemployment number of 8.1% for August 2012. It dropped from 8.3%, with only 96,000 new jobs being added. As anyone who has been paying attention knows, you need to add at least 125,000 new jobs a month just to keep up with population growth. So America was short 29,000 jobs of breaking even. The reason the unemployment number when down is because the federal government stopped counting 368,000 Americans as being unemployed for a variety of reasons, none of which was that they became employed. One of the primary reasons that people dropped off the rolls of employed was that the people who were being counted exhausted their unemployment benefits. They are still unemployed, but the feds don’t count them anymore. So in the is case, the reduction in the “official” unemployment rate is an indication that things are getting worse, not better.
Need another example? The Egan-Jones credit rating agency just downgraded the US government’s credit rating. This is because the Obama regime has initiated a third round of “Quantitate Easing.” Incase you don’t know what that means, the Fed created $40 billion out of thin air and inserted that into the money supply. So you have more dollars chasing the same amount of goods. This is bad news for the American consumer. If you still don’t get it (i.e. you can’t repeal the Law of Supply and Demand), here is a helpful instructional video
Our Dear Leader’s Ego
Clearly, our Dear Leader, Barack Hussein Obama, the “Lightbringer”, has fallen into the trap of believing his own marketing.
The proof of this is this recent interview with Cathleen Falsani of the Chicago Sun-Times:
Falsani: Do you believe in sin?
Obama: Yes.
Falsani: What is sin?
Obama: Being out of alignment with my values.
That’s right folks. According to our Dear Leader, if you disagree with him, you are a sinner.
Let’s leave all the implications of his psychology issues alone for a moment, and oh boy, are there a lot of them, and instead look at BHO’s supporters, or as he refers to them, worshippers. These barking moonbats are a flutter over the fact that Gov. Romney is a member of the LDS church. They will tell you, every chance they get, that this disqualifies him for public office.
The fact that they are blindly following a leader who literally believes that “alignment with my values” is a sin does not cause any contradiction with them is very enlightening also.
HT to Mr. Reynolds, Mr. Kimball and Mr. Driscoll.
The power of icons
First let us review this classic video that Bill Whittle did back in 2009
Now take a look at the current icon of the Empty Chair.
“President Obama has consistently been absent, more concerned about branding than leadership, with image and atmospherics than truly rallying the troops and harnessing our resources and solving our most pressing problems. He turned over the task of crafting solutions on the stimulus bill and the health care bill to Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi, who predictably butchered it. He botched the budget compromise with John Boehner and withdrew from the process. When he thought that partisan gridlock in Congress might make him look bad, rather than forging into the gridlock and navigating a way forward he withdrew to the White House and played over 100 rounds of golf. The problem for President Obama is that the soaring oratory will not work this time. The contrast between the rhetoric and his actual achievements is too great.”

Waiting on Doomsday
Wired has a great article called Apocalypse Not: Here’s Why You Shouldn’t Worry About End Times
Give it a read, it’s filled with great quotes of harbingers of doom, like the worst President of the latter half the 20th Century, James Earl Carter III telling us back in 1977: “We could use up all the proven reserves of oil in the entire world by the of end of the next decade.”
For more of this prattle, check out the “predictions” from the first Lenin’s Birthday celebration, also known as “Earth Day.”
As I put it quite some time ago, “Between Global Thermonuclear War with the Soviet Union, Global Cooling, the Population Bomb, DDT, AIDS, the Elbola virus, a half dozen other doomsday issues, and now Global Warming, it’s like living in one long 1970’s disaster film.”
