So when can Obama be impeached? What needs to happen? He's already violating the Constitution; do we have to wait until his approval rating drops? Scores of Democrats and Republicans alike are regretting their votes for Obama. Why aren't opinion polls reflecting this? Do we have to wait for another terrorist attack?
As you can see, I am extremely dissatisfied, in fact, I'm frightened by this "new" United States. The decline of our country is taking me and mine, somewhere we don't want to go.

American voters elected Obama. The media, for months and months, told us how white voters wouldn't vote for a black president. I paid attention, apparently, you didn't. McCain was hugged and adored by media until his lying and posturing became too embarassing. Palin was quickly embraced as the answer to Hillary voters…before she demonstrated she was a bit wacky.

Yes, media loves scandals. But media also loves shilling for the powerful monied interests represented, primarily, by the Republican Party. That's why the media has gotten out of their Rumpelstiltskin beds now to delegitimize Obama, like they did Clinton. For almost 8 full years the same media was very shy about accusing Bush and the GOP of anything. That's why the numerous crimes of the BushCos have yet to be revealed and explained in their full glory.

Obama didn't cause the recession. He had barely arrived in the Senate when it started.

Democrats did have a big hand in it, however. There's no escaping that fact. So did the rest of our government.

Bush didn't deregulate the housing market, no matter how many times the left says he did (without ever naming even ONE example). That does not absolve Bush, however. He was president while the crisis happened, so he shares in the blame.

The stock market has reacted negatively to Obama's policies, predictably. Obama has introduced a lot of uncertainty into an already uncertain situation. The market doesn't like uncertainty. They don't like to bet on uncertainty.

Even though I disagree with Obama's policies, they cannot be called a failure when he's only been president for six weeks. That's silly. Those trumpeting that note are just being partisan.

Since the media got Obama elected, I think it's pretty impolite to complain about the media now. The unqualified love the media showered on Obama during the campaign was an embarassment. There wasn't even a pretense of objectivity. Obama didn't come to be known as The Messiah by accident. The media crowned him.

The Rev always expects the media to look the other way for Democrat scandals. They usually do, but the Clinton/Lewinsky thing was just TOO juicy, like if Brad and Angelina had affairs and split up. A ratings bonanza. The media couldn't resist. It had nothing to do with left vs. right. The media is mostly left, but they LOVE a scandal, no matter who it involves. Sex scandals are gold. They move newspapers and get the rubberneckers watching the tube.

2.2 million jobs lost since Obama's election. Dow tanking. It's obviously Bush's fault. No, wait it must be the media's fault. And to all you Clinton lovers he was impeaced for lying under oath. Same thing that Martha Stewart went to jail for and Scotter Libby was convicted of. But I guess if Bill did it it's OK.

Yeah Larry, that biased liberal media you cats are always ranting about….the media that refused to report the unsavory details of their Master's consensual extramarital affair. Oh that's right, now I remember, it was all over every station and newspaper.
