Yes what is with 0 appearing in TV, radio, and web ads??

TVs and radios have off switches. What are web ads? I use adblock+.

Pardon me, but you sound like a Democrat. If you don't like it, don't view it. For the time being anyway, it's still a somewhat free country.

Hopefully a lot of people are coming out of their ill-informed, euphoric trance.

Read and understand.

I’m not advocating that companies be restricted from using 0’s image in ads. Unlike lefties, I love freedom. I’m just saying it annoys me, and I have never seen it done with other presidents. For now if I can’t avoid the ads I just watch or listen to them, and then move on.

If I am not mistaken some credit card counseling service mentions 0 “recently” signing his stimulus bill on radio ads during Rush’s show. I am not going to stop listening to Rush just because I don’t like a commercial.

In any case when the great leader’s approval ratings are tumbling I’m sure these outfits will no longer want to be associated with him.

re: Why does it take independents so long? Don’t they pay attention until the country is tanking?)))

Human nature--they were invested in O because they voted for him.

This is an excellent opinion piece. If I were on Obama’s team I would study this with concern, of course they don't seem to have a ear to what those around the country think but as you read what Doug and Scott have to say as they evaluate the number's I wouldn't know how to spin them.

Having said that, ignore this article Obama, stay far away from congress, because I want the congress back and Obama can't do as MUCH damage to the country when he is away, even though AF1 is a mini WH.

Interesting you will see the media carry his water to make it appear he is shifting right... News stories out now about Spending Freezes on Domestic items to balance the Budget....

The Left is cringing and want serious reductions in the DOD. It still begs the question is Obama an Ideologue or a Pragmatist.

We will see.

“I know, I have little respect for the “independents.” Get some principles why don’t they.”

You nailed it - get some principles!

Although some of them might not do their research until it’s too late.
