Republicans were very happy to see the "end of welfare as we know it"; now they are scared to take notice of the end of the US dollar as we know it. In reality, the US dollar died on August 15, 1971 when Mr. Nixon closed the "Gold Window".

Now, who should be afraid of massive inflation? The rich should certainly be more wary than the poor: the poor are used to pay their basic necessities with food stamps, they have no savings and they spend right away the few dollars they get.

That's just unreal. The way Obama's approval numbers are falling, Americans are finally starting to wake up.

You have yet to prove your claim of a 30 point fall maybe becuase you made it up.

Here the Rasmussen Presidential Approval Index:

http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_con...l_tracking_poll

That does not show a 30% fall in his approval rating again it doesn't show that because he made that up. Infact that is an approval index not an approval rating at all. The approval rating is made up of only those who approval of what he does. Your's is only made up of those who strongly approve and those who strongly disapprove. Leaving out those who just approve and disapprove. So you can't even get a guess of his approval rating from your number.

Your argument does not dismiss the reality of Obama's falling approval ratings. It is the slope of the line, and rate of decline that matters for our Man God. Without this "political capital", he will not be able to succeed as Reagan did with his agenda.

It doesn't but when we look at compared to Bush and Clinton at the same time we see that is a much slower decline, and when we look at the make up he is actually improving amongst both Dems and Independents and the decline is due to Republicans. So I don't think he is shaking in his boots right now. Ummmm Reagan's numbers fell more then Obama's have at this time in he presidency but again don't let facts get in your way.

Here you go you can go read facts

Good, then there is agreement that President Obama's approval/disapproval ratings are changing, after starting much higher than President Reagan's. He will pay more ratings points if he keeps Geithner around.

I wont agree to that. Obama and Regan's approval number's started out as about the exact same numbers, Obama's numbers just haven't fallen as fast.

That's fine by me...at least you admit they have a negative slope. Let's see what he can dick up next! :lol:

I think if we use the Reagan assessment he has a long way to go. At the end of Reagan's first year his approval was at 47 and disapproval was also around 47. So Obama has a long way to fall to be Reagan.

We're going to find out if Obama can do what Reagan did, or fail miserably like Carter. The ratings are relatively poor for Obama if he can't get the job done with a Democratic Congress. That's why Reagan gets brownie points.

Obama is not Clinton.....even if he has Hillary on the team. He wants to convince America that reckless spending is bad when Bush did it, but swell for his administration.

I don't recall you emphasizing the power of a strong approval rating when Bush was somewhere less than 20%. :lol:

To be fair he had the highest approval rating of any president of 90% but it didn't mean he was going to be a good president so I think we should all lay of the approval ratings as they clearly mean nothing. We defiantly shouldn't lie about them saying Obama has dropped 30 points when it clearly hasn't.

What a poll will hardly show is the number of Americans who are happy to see the so-called US economy being destroyed to make room for a new and improved one.

That is becuase you made those people up. In fact if you look at right direction wrong direction polls since Obama took office you see the right direction go up and wrong direction go down.

The problem is that the US dollar is a living-dead international currency since the Harry Dexter White plan was agreed upon at the Bretton Woods Conference (July 1–22, 1944).

Hahahaha yes that is the way to go limit your economy by tieing it to something that in itself is worthless. Let me point this out to you all the Gold in the world is not enough to back 1/10th of he US economy. Nixon got rid of it so the economy could grow. It is a dumb idea.

If we think about it, it takes a lot of trust but only a little bit of gold to marry a woman.
