Washington (AP) - According to President Barack Obama, Americans are angry, frustrated, scared, anxious, uncertain, nervous, discouraged and shaken up.
They're also confused and not thinking clearly.
Heading into critical midterm elections, Obama has been freely sharing this gloomy diagnosis on the campaign trail, at times sounding more like a psychiatrist than a politician. He usually couples it with a reminder that the country's been through tough times before and is resilient enough to bounce back, and an appeal to voters to "choose hope over fear."

Americans would be more supportive of his policies, the president suggests, if they weren't fettered by anxiety he accuses the GOP of stoking. And the descriptions of angst from a president criticized as overly cerebral and aloof also allow him to attempt to show he feels voters' pain -- even if he can't cure it.
So the president who campaigned on hope and change now sometimes sounds more like he's diagnosing depression than offering inspiration.
"People out there are still hurting very badly, and they are still scared," Obama said recently at a Boston fundraiser. "And so part of the reason that our politics seems so tough right now, and facts and science and argument does not seem to be winning the day all the time, is because we're hard-wired not to always think clearly when we're scared."
At a town hall meeting, the president had a similar message.
"There's a lot of anger and there's a lot of frustration and a lot of fear across the country.... And the question is going to be whether once again hope overcomes fear," he said. "Because what essentially the other side has decided is that they're going to try to ride fear and anxiety all the way to the ballot box."

Obama Plays Psychiatrist-in-Chief on Campaign Trail
"People out there are still hurting very badly, and they are still scared," Obama said. "And so part of the reason that our politics seems so tough right now, and facts and science and argument does not seem to be winning the day all the time, is because we're hard-wired not to always think clearly when we're scared."
Not to worry oh so wise one. I took my pills this morning.

“Americans are angry, frustrated, scared, anxious, uncertain, nervous, discouraged and shaken up.”
Yes, we are. And WHY are we like that? The blame, Hussein, can be laid directly at your feet.
