 Obama’s doesn’t seem to understand that the truth actually matters

In the latest Wenzel Strategies poll, just 36% of American likely voters said they think the country is headed on the right direction. This is down from a significant majority who said the same thing early last year. But that’s not really news, since every poll number associated with President Obama has plummeted over the past 13 months, starting almost immediately after he took office.

Part of this is reflective of the times – the economic doldrums continue unabated. Part of this is a natural outgrowth of the way in which Obama campaigned for the presidency in 2008, and the way in which the national news media covered him. Seldom did reporters on the campaign trail demand specifics about Obama or his policy proposals, and he offered them even less often.

In the end, we always find out what our Presidents really believe, as they roll out their agenda in Washington. It turns out the country doesn’t like Obama the President anywhere near as much as they liked Obama the candidate. The terrible “right direction/wrong track” poll numbers demonstrate that.

This week, President Obama marked the first anniversary of his stimulus bill by claiming it has saved or produced two million jobs. The claim came after several reports that other Obama Administration declarations of jobs saved or created by the stimulus bill were wildly exaggerated.
