    The only really serious mistake Obama made was abandoning his liberal opposition to the Bush Interventionist foreign policy, and adopting the Neo Con, Rumsfeld/Cheney Shock and Awe concept which Obama has modified even more perversely to suggest the USA can wage a "Two Day" war. PLEASE, STOP INSULTING the American people.

    Well there's plenty of political forums out there with more liberals than conservatives. This one just happens to have more right-leaning posters.

    I think some of it has to do with incumbency as well. People are more likely to complain about an incumbent president than come to their defence. The Bush years were full of liberals taking to forums as I recall. :)

    Similar actions are taking place in dozens of states, and the opportunities to commit voter fraud are diminishing.

    There have even been a few arrests, convictions, and sentences:

    Given the positions shown by this poll, I suspect that 2012 will have less sympathy and support for the Obama Administration and the Democratic Party in general.

    LOL, I've always thought the easiest way to tell how liberal a forum is, is by the amount of threads about gays & abortion.

    This forum has plenty of those.

    Any political forum which becomes "moderated" to an extreme bias to either right or left, or the agenda of Taurans, ...

    Any political forum which has significant bias soon becomes dull and traffic, posts and "Debate" dwindles to just a few die-hards and their unchallenged viewpoints.

    I know, I've tried to break into discussions about AA on a few of those forums, and it is quickly shown to be pointless.

    The amount of activity on PF speaks for a balance of people and viewpoints.

    Given the extreme imbalance in this threads poll, one can only assume that Mordred's star is waning.

    The push to bomb Syria may be Obama's fatal mistake.

    No the liberals have jobs and stuff to do, so they are not sitting around in their trailers posting on Internet forums because their social security checks don't give them enough money to go out.

    I know that's right about the jobs... have you seen the size of the fast-food workers thread? Every lib on the forum must work for Taco Bell, etc. Who knew that topic would get so much mileage?

    This is a lie. There was no "massive voter fraud."

    - - - Updated - - -

    Obama most certainly hasn't governed like a liberal.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Are you serious? This place is blatantly and massively right-leaning.

    I don't know about Candor, but I do not personally know one person who will admit to being on the welfare-suck.

    Welfare should be tightly restricted only to those who are genuinely unable to support themselves because of physical or mental defects or disease. The rest of them are just lazy-ass parasites who have pissed away their lives by making bad decisions, and now want Uncle Sugar and the remaining U. S. taxpayers to support them.... These are the people that Obama courts and on whose votes he depends -- the leeches, the worthless, the bums, the "takers" who suck the life's blood out of the "givers".... In a word, it's SOCIALISM! And that is why, above all other things, I despise Obama and creatures like him. They encourage this dependence on the state, and shovel out welfare, paid for by taxpayers, to keep themselves in power. He is, withal, the worst president in the history of the United States, and he's still got more than three years to go! :frustrated:

    Well, that certainly is not my perception, but who knows? I saw several left leaning posters engage in this thread, & they weren't wild about obama because he was not left enough for them. His cozy relationship with the big banks & the industrial military establishment evidently soured them on his hope & change. It seems to be pretty clear from all sides that O is a big mistake. He didn't close guantanamo, escalated in afganistan, now wants to bomb syria.. he's certainly no peacenik, & seems to be just as much a war monger as bush or cheney.

    I'm more of a constitutional conservative, & it seems to me the leftists are much more vocal, & flood the threads with banality, noise, & distractions. It really surprising how few topics there really are, here.. even with the abundance of threads. But most of them are just repetition of the same old thing.. race baiting, gay baiting, religious trolling, etc. Some current events are used as vehicles for the same old topics.. like the flood of zimmerman/martin threads.. wow.. that seemed to obsess a lot of people.

    I don't know you, but, no offense, i'll keep my own opinion, rather than accept your dogmatic assertion! :cool:

    oh, & i'm glad you got to use a cutesy insult.. wingnuts.. it's a bit dated, now, but it communicates the right amount of disdain, so i can see why you like it. Still, something more original would be refreshing. :yawn:

    Presidents are allowed to maneuver. And nobody ever said they have to be truthful, even in their intel reports to Congress.

    Never saw "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying"?

    They could make a very good one about Politics based on Obama.

    Seen his approval ratings lately?

    - - - Updated - - -

    Oh he's good about political maneuvering. Is that why you voted for him? I thought you elect people because they are best to run the country.

    Could be but only 19 with any approval. I know there is more libs on here than that. Guess they don't want to commit, which is fairly possible, libs tend to be like that.

    The 5 who strongly approve must be OFA plants.

    It's obvious Barack doesn't care about his falling poll numbers.

    Ahhh, it's good to be king.

    The reason Carter was ineffective was that he stunk at maneuvering. Every president since has excelled at it. What do you want, honesty or effectiveness?
