A lot of right wingers are hoping that Barack Obama’s election was just part of the back and forth cycle of politics. And while there’s probably some truth to that theory, I think there’s a deeper movement towards progressiveness (or liberalism, whichever term you prefer) in this country.
Simply put; America is getting more liberal. For […]

This video gives a pretty good indication of how “fair & balanced” the coverage of President Obama has been by Fox/GOP News. From Day 1 they’ve been trying to place blame on Obama for things he doesn’t deserve blame for (such as the Bush Recession/Depression.)

Now that there are 60 Democratic Senators (well once Norm Coleman finally relents in his quest to be the biggest sore loser in history and Al Franken is seated) it seems ridiculous to say that single payer health care is not politically possible (which has been the excuse for why it won’t be done.)
Single […]

As of today President Obama’s approval rating is at 66%, that is the highest it’s been since February 27th (when it was at 67%.)
The right wing meme that Obama is losing popularity has become increasingly comical. It’s clear that all of the right wing’s baseless attacks (and there have been many) on the President are […]

President Obama’s approval rating has climbed up to 65% as of today which makes the right wing claim that “Obama Is Losing Popularity” look all that much more ridiculous.

President Obama’s approval rating is up to 64% today, that’s actually the first time he’s risen above 63% since March 22 (one month ago!)
Meanwhile the Republican party is at 31% approval.
It’s becoming clear that the GOP is becoming increasingly irrelevant. Tea bagging? Texas secession? Tax cuts for the wealthy? Is that all they have? […]

President Obama has left the door open for congressional investigations into the Bush admin’s role in the torture of prisoners of war during the “War on Terror.”
It’s clear that the orders to use torture (which is illegal according to international law) came from the top so these investigations could lead to the very top […]

Does this seem like a broken record? Barack Obama is once again at 63% approval (he was at that mark yesterday as well.)
He was also at 63% on April 15th (”Tea Bagging” day), on February 23rd, and 63% was his average approval rating for the first quarter of his first year as President.
So […]
