President Obama will speak to the nation Tuesday night with approval ratings lower than for any of his previous State of the Union addresses and with Americans broadly pessimistic that he or lawmakers of either party will make good decisions for the future of the country, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.

We don't have any "leaders". We only have greedy and corrupt politicians. That's fine though. REAL AMERICANS make lousy followers anyway. Just ask Soetoro.

I worry more when people do put faith in leaders. At least now there’s hope.

That easily explained.The majority...the *large* majority...of Americans now understand that Osama Obama,his appointees,and Dirty Harry & Bella Pelosi have complete and utter contempt for the principles of our parents and grandparents

.
Are you kidding?

These people will just re-elect the same corrupt politicians they say they do not have faith in.

The democrats are destroying the country, and the republicans, for the most part, are letting them do it. I cannot support either position.

The people complain about their government’s corruption, then do nothing while spying and the creation of a massive secret police force (aka DHS) goes unchallenged.
