Laura Ingraham STUPEFIED by Obama’s popularity: ‘In defeat… he’s setting the agenda’




“In defeat, Obama looks like he’s setting the agenda,” Ingraham complained during a panel discussion on Fox News Sunday. “I mean, his poll numbers are up. He’s got a bounce in his step… He is rising in the polls as he comes off this near-historic defeat across the board.”

"Republicans have been successful and the economy has been improving with two things: gridlock and opposing Obama. The economy has been getting better!"

That's right folks, the economy is improving because the Republicans have been obstructing Obama.

Ever since she converted to Catholicism during the '90s when the late NOVAKula and assorted Spooks and FBI had that fad going (Opus Dei), I've wondered how that supposed "spirituality" continues to be displayed with her bile. I even e-mailed the Little Sisters of the Poor to ask how this convert shows such viciousness. One answered that she had no idea who this person is.

Unfortunately when Bush was President that "Strong" leadership had us going down the toilet. Obama should have been using his powers a long time ago to reverse all that crap.

Just look at what happened to St. Reagan at the same point of his Presidency. Or Bush the lesser. (Or Dwight D. Eisenhower for that matter. Ouch!)
