Obama: "We've Got 6 Months Before My Poll Numbers Start Crashing"

[GWHH19]

and the emporeor has no clothes on and people at last started telling him that. 

[ConservativeRuleinUS]

Obama is one big fraud upon America.

[Davito2000]

He's interested in being held accountable and people aren't interested in what he inherited, but in the end, we still get reminding that it's all Bush's fault. And that must be why he says that he isn't concerned with polls, aka, the interests of the American people.

Isn't it lovely how quickly they forget where they came from and where they will soon return?

[Blademaster865]

Well friend,

Respectfully, but I think under Pres. GW Bush's watch we saw a lot of bad decisions made: Iraq War, a much too unregulated market, and a turning of a federal surplus into the largest federal deficit ever. All this topped with No. 43 showing too little a sense of accountability being shown to the public. He was our leader, and many including myself would like to have seen more of this from him. All that being said, I continue to respect him has No. 43. A man in a tough job.

[CoolScoobydoo]

Obama is right. I don't see why everyone is so surprised that his poll numbers dropped. I wouldn't be surprised if his poll numbers get into the 30's because that is how the American public is. All presidents are held hostage by the strength of the economy.

[NoellaC25]

Michelle looked like she was falling asleep. Then it dawned on me. She didn't look at Oprah at all through the whole 2.5 min. Obama obviously included Michelle every comment he made. Michelle doesn't like Oprah and Obama knows it and is "keeping the peace" with his wife! LOL

[l1nuxun1l]

It's okay Obama said unemployment would not go over 8% when the stimulus passed........ oh shit......

[CoolScoobydoo]

Unemployment will be at 8% by the end of 2011 and I wonder what people will be saying then. By the middle of 2012, it will be 6.5% and wonder what people will be saying. The hatred Obama is going through is close to what Reagan, Clinton, and Bush went through in their first term. When the economy bounces back by 2012, people will be chanting "OBAMA, OBAMA," again and the Republicans will be ticked, but they would have won the Congress making Obama's life hell on Earth.

[l1nuxun1l]

Cant wait till his life is hell :D

[Zoklor]

maybe if you kept some of your damn campaign promises, your rating would not be shit. Transparency, ear marks, Afghanistan, and maybe starting with jobs instead of healthcare would have been a good start. Obama also says people are not interested in what he inherited, however he sure comments on it enough to justify himself.

[CoolScoobydoo]

Unemployment still would have went up and the American people still would have been angry. It is all about politics. The opposition plays Monday morning quarterback and the I told you so game. It is all about politics and discontent. Most president's don't keep their promises, so why are people so surprised. It has been this way for 200 years. Obama is held to a different standard because he is not George W. Bush. I want to see what people think by 2012 when the unemployment is down.

[vidguy67]

of COURSE he called it before it happened. We have 10% unemployment. Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought he said the unemployment rate would not go above 8% due to the stimulus.

[afferch]

Barrack Obullshit!

[linkin622]

pathetic

[TheMagnificentJerk]

i have voted dem all my life but now i dont see myself EVER doing that again. It is clear to me now that both parties have been corrupted totally by anti-american globalists. Bush sit em up, Obama Knocks em down

[shgibby61981]

OBAMA = One Big Ass MIstake America. I think he should be hung for treason.

[captquest1]

I think he meant, "in six months the American people will see who I really am".

Lowest approval numbers of any president at this point in office, EVER!

[MojoJuana]

yeah, right!

change you can believe in!

hoodwinked again, america!

not the kinda change i voted for!

[marlowe1ify]

at :50 he said we have to do what WE think is right for the american people, who is we ? all his radical czars! What about what the american people want! Oh thats right the american people are to STUPID and envolved in other things to take notice

[eye7view]

like Mccain would have fixed everything in 1yr, yeah right.

[hobo59]

I can't believe anyone is surprised by BHO's obviously failing government. They elected a nobody with absolutely no experience in management, to manage the larges, richest conglomerate on the planet. And as far as Miss O, she's just here to get an update on how her money has been spent since she mostly bought him the presidency. BTW if my comments make me a racist, I'm comfortable with that !

[hobo59]

So, now he realizes he can't continue blaming Bush for everything ? Yet he still thinks he deserves a B+ ? Well he did manage to pick a family dog. Although that took him what, three months ?

[mdjbm]

so is obama a racist because he gave the interview to oprah instead of a white reporter? just wondering, because apparently i'm a racist because i didn't vote for him.

[marcusjansen239369]

Obama will never understand that his stage was set to fail the minute he stepped in to the Whitehouse. Forces out of his reach have designed the economic fall of the United States for a New World Order and for him to be the scape goat and finish it. How? By waging War again and spending as much money as possible from money you don't have paying foreigners and the Banks. You have been hanging around the wrong people Mr. President and we will all unfortunately find out too late.

[LuthierGod]

That ship sunk fast!!

[slashreported]

He justified porkulus by saying it'd prevent 8% unemployment, and now it's at 10% and his polls are dropping like stones, and he's spinning that it could have been worse had they not passed out the pork? Two words come to mind...

YOU LIE

[TubeGhost]

@slashreported The thing is, they easily could have kept university and state budgets afloat for a year or two, FORGIVEN student loans (or half of them, thus allowing people large amounts of cash to re-invest and spend into the economy) and continued infrastructure projects on fed roads with about 1/10th of that budget. It was absurd the amount of money, most of it still 'unspent' somehow.

[slashreported]

Of course. But Obama is a man of the Left, and the Left also has huge influence in Congress. The Left isnt interested in growing economies. That's not even a secondary goal of theirs. They're about growing government, spreading wealth, and solidifying power. That's all. And they are pursuing that agenda with wild abandon.

[larkydozer]

Fail.

[TheStrazy]

And people dont think this guy knows what hes doing he knows what washington is doing is going to be very unpopular and they are doing it anyways because they dont care what you think or how you live they only think about lining there buddys pockets with your money and taking your rights to disagree with them while they are doing it!!!

[Netdo7]

Obama is destroying the country and economy and Opera acts surprised...LOL

[TonyUnplugged]

The majority of Americans don't approve of the $787 billion stimulus, health care bills and cap and trade bills. You have not addressed the criminal activity of Wall Street to date.  Your staff are a bunch of socialists who admire Mao. You fooled alot of naive Americans during the Presidential campaign.

[Shad0wSquirrel]

why wasnt barbra walters interviewing him?

[JohnJ2427]

Nothing is ever his fault, is it? He refuses to take responsibility for anything.

[sparkleplenty2009]

Whoops! He goofed. He said the right thing the first time, that he's not going to be able to spin his way out of it in a couple of years. He corrected himself saying, I don't really want to spin my way out of it.

[SkylineTime]

He didn't have his teleprompter on this interview and that is why he came across like an idiot.

[ironclad452]

The racist language is not necessary 308stoner. But I imagine your intellect isn't too high judging you're a stoner.

[NoCensorshipYT]

God I HATE HIM.

Such an arrogant tool.

Never will admit that he is wrong about anything.

[Roachenator]

FREEZE AT 00:01 ...FAKE ASS SMILES

[Shad0wSquirrel]

yep

[aeuiono]

Look at 0:08.

When Michelle first hears that Barack gave himself a B+ , she knows he screwed up.

"Really?" She knows it's going to bite him in the ass, dumb move.

[yahazif]

Obama came into office with a bad economy that's true. But his solution has been to attack business and spend the government into bankruptcy. As a result unemployment has skyrocketed above 10% for the first time in decades. He also came into office with two wars. His approach to world politics has been to project indecision and defeatism. Obama is a bungling fool. Obama is a disaster for America. Obama gets an F- for his first year in office. Current approval rating at 44% and falling fast.

[bertly71]

Saving the big banks was important to him. Unemployment is a secondary concern. That speaks volumes to me.

[Roachenator]

hey its doctor huxtable and claire

[abbienetvision]

Again he is blaming the previous gov't. The unemployment has gone up under Obamanation. He did not inherit 10%, he created it.

IMPEACH OBAMA AND USA WILL RETURN TO A SUPER POWER!

[search4truth1]

He sure belives in Goebbels:

If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State. ~J Goebbels

[justamomforjesus]

excuse me while I vomit

[search4truth1]

Yep, right with you on that!

What would be right for the American people is for him to resign and take his Czarist cronies with him.

[brianbozowski]

Bullshit!!! His approval is dropping BECAUSE OF THE THINGS HE IS DOING AND PROPOSING NOT BECAUSE OF WHAT HE INHERITED.

[themunz126]

Agreed, his approval ratings dropped because he pulled a bunch of crap he said he would never do. People are turning against him because he lied through his teeth and they couldn't see he was doing it.

People did not vote for socialism, that was not the change they were looking for.

[kd5gua]

Obama should have been an actor. To sit there and say that he is all for being held accountable and do it with such a straight face. Damn, what a performance. Hard to say you have ever been accountable when you keep all aspects of your past a secret. If you won't show the ledger how can you account. Account : 8 : a description of facts, conditions, or events : report, narrative. Just try to find and read any document giving a report or narrative on Obama, good luck!

[ClassicFIHD]

Obama could never be an actor. He can't remember 5 words on his own without a teleprompter.

[kd5gua]

Good point.

[Blademaster865]

Please, that is weak. Obama agree with him or not as communication skills on par with some of the greatest. I'm not saying best all time, and not trying to put him up with Pres. Reagen, but my initial reaction is that perhaps some of us are just sore with how bad Pres. W. Bush was.

[marzutraII]

All he does is spin.

[search4truth1]

Yup! He says he's not able to spin his way out of it..........OOPS!

Quickly weasel-spoke that, did he not?

heh heh

Wonder why Michelle was there? Photo op I guess. Or holding his hand?
