I wonder why no media outlet reports what is going on in Afghanistan? It seemed like we used to get daily news on Iraq and now we hear nothing about Afghanistan.
Hmm.
weird.

Bush had one thing right, approval ratings don't matter much.We were close to 70% approval for GW prior to invading Iraq and look how great that decision turned out to be.
I know this pains the whites like you my young apprentice but just sit back and let the black guy, who happens to be the smartest politician of our generation handle things.We got this on lock, homey.

obama approval rating is down from the high 60's to low 50's.
his disaproval is up from around 10 to over 40.
the honeymoon appears to be over, mostly due to his jamming the healthcare issue down the our throat. at least clinton knew not to bet on a loser. the fact he can't get a bill through the senate and house when he has a majority speaks volumes.
