Despite overseeing the biggest propaganda machine in the history of U.S. politics and enjoying unprecedented positive coverage from what might as well be a state-run media, Barack Obama's job approval numbers continue to fall.The problem with Obama is that he is a product of government. He's never held a private-sector job. He believes government exists to run every aspect of a person's life.
Most Americans don't share that view. Most Americans have a healthy mistrust of government.
Bill O'Reilly takes a look at Obama's tumbling job approval rating in his latest column:
We are a country at odds. Just six months ago, the president's approval rating approached 70 percent as the nation looked forward to better times under a young, dynamic leader. But that was then.Read the full column, "A Matter of Trust," at Townhall.com
Now, there is chaos in the air. The massive spending the Democrats have championed has unsettled many who understand that foreign lenders, in particular the Chinese, are becoming a lifeline for America. If these people pull out, disaster drives in. With bankruptcy looming in California, it is not far-fetched to see the federal government drowning in debt, as well.
Also, few understand Obama's health care vision, and he has not been able to explain it effectively. Most human beings value security. Are you feeling secure these days?
But it is the trust factor that has really frayed tempers. Conservative Americans, almost 40 percent of the population, are outraged at Obama's expansionist policies. The right simply does not trust the president and probably never will.
