Asked why President Barack Obama was making a primetime address on the debt crisis last night, a White House official said, "I guarantee you that 80% of the audience tonight has never seen more than a 10 second clip of the president talking about this." Need proof? A new poll out today shows 46% of Americans have more faith in the president to handle the debt issue while just 34% trust Congressional Republicans more, but of those same Americans surveyed, 45% don't want the debt ceiling raised at all fearing that would lead to higher government spending and make the national debt bigger.

You want to know who is on your side? Look in the mirror, because that's just about it.

I did and the old goat staring back at me flipped me off!
Like my faithfully Democrat-voting employee who can’t understand why her husband was laid off from his job of 25 years.
Remember the old Connect-the-Dots puzzles from childhood? These people never could complete one of those.
Poor logic there. “Most Americans” have not heard 10 seconds of Obama talking about this, ergo, the solution is for Obama to talk about this (whatever this is) eleven hundred times more.
Maybe they should demand a wholly devoted Obama channel, and demand every citizen spend at least an hour daily to study it?
And in Obama’s speech that Most Americans have no idea what a debt ceiling is is just so insulting.
This issue is difficult to understand for many people, and therefore, a slight change in the wording can make Obama look anywhere from really good to really bad in this fight.
Here’s an issue that’s NOT difficult to understand: RUNAWAY INFLATION !
“A new poll out today shows 46% of Americans have more faith in the president to handle the debt issue”.....
Seems to be getting harder and harder to find a poll on anything that helps the Kenyan Catastrophe....
No one is. It’s survival of the fittest, every man for himself.
I wish you hadn't excerpted your own material.
