Obama can be proud. Harry Reid and his other buddies

have a lower rating than he does.
Reid has lowest approval rating among congressional leaders, poll finds
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) holds the lowest net approval rating among House and Senate leadership — but others are not far behind.
According to a Gallup poll released Friday, Reid's approval rating is 33 percent with 53 percent disapproving of his job performance, leaving him with a net rating of negative 20 percent.
Speaker John Boehner (Ohio), who leads the Republican majority in the House, holds a net approval rating of negative 17 percent, with 37 percent of people approving while 54 percent disapprove.
Both minority leaders in the House and Senate hold a net approval rating of negative 12 percent.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) has a 35 percent approval rating, while 37 percent disapprove of him. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has the approval of 39 percent of people, but 51 percent disapprove.

Both parties deserve their horrible ratings. If we rated - the people polled, though, they'd
[ In Reply To ..]fare even poorer. Our performance as a whole is an abomination, a dreadful failure of citizenship.
At least our congressional leaders can name both houses of Congress, which many Americans cannot. MOST American don't know which party is the majority in each right now, turning every discussion on this into incomprehensible noise from the first words.
Pride? I'm not proud to be a member of the Worst Generation. The most I'll have to hang onto looking back is that I was a progressive Democrat, the less destructive of the major groups. Whoopie.
What? I used to belong to the Democrat party until - I realized they are bankrupting the nation ! nm
[ In Reply To ..]nm
huh? - who cares
[ In Reply To ..]about what the people know or don't know. This is not about the people. This is about politicians ratings.
It doesn't matter who can name what or what the people know. This is about the fact that congress is doing a poor job.
You must be younger than me to consider yourself a member of the worst generation. I'm in my 50s and I'm proud to be in a generation (and those older than me) who ARE smart and to most of us parties don't matter. All the people I know of whether or not they consider themselves in either party, that at least can admit there are faults in the party they associate with.
Each has good people and each bad. What I can be proud of is that I belong to no group. I may not agree with everything republicans do, but at least they are not as bad as the progressive democrats, who are the most destructive of the parties.
If you're a Baby Boomer... - genX
[ In Reply To ..]...you're probably a member of the worst generation.
BB are the best generation - Baby boomer
[ In Reply To ..]Every generation from there went downhill.
Every generation is going to think that - about the ones that follow theirs
[ In Reply To ..]forever and ever, until the end of time.
The truth is, there is good and bad with every generation.
The fifties were a great time for this country economically, but if you were black or a woman who wanted "more," they were not fantastic.
This current generation is lazy, but they are also more accepting of people who are different than themselves.
And so it will go, forever and ever. Good and bad.
Ahem... you seem to forget that that baby boomers are also known as - "Generation Me"
[ In Reply To ..]No wonder why the baby boomers' children (Generation X) are too apathetic to recycle.
Reply to all those "putting down" my generation - Baby boomer
[ In Reply To ..]Let me tell you what is great about my generation. Maybe it's different in different parts of the country, but my husband and I are from different sides, so I don't think so.
Born in the early 60s. We grew up watching the first landing on the moon. JFK, Wide Wide World of Sports, Merlin Perkins, and Wonderful World of Disney. People in my generation are innovative and smart. We grew up going to school, scouts and church. Mom and dad sent us out to play on the weekends and we were innovative with the stuff we'd find in our back yard to play with, climbed trees in the woods. We didn't grow up with electronic gadgets that you couldn't pry from kids now adays. Our first introduction to computers was an Atari ping pong we played on the TV. We thought Easy-Bake ovens and Lite Bright was high technology and our dolls didn't have to talk, we talked to them and heard what they were saying when nobody else could. We learned to respect and honor our elders. We learned that our lives were what we made of them and that if something bad was happening it was not the generation before us' fault. It was OUR fault. When I was in the 2nd grade I went to work on my uncles farm where on the weekend I picked veggies and apples, filled crates and made 60 cents a day and I thought that was great money. I was also rewarded with swimming in their swimming pool and milkshakes. Girl scout ice skating parties, hay rides. Oh yeah, and recycling was HUGE. We recycled everything and we learned the importance of saving our planet. We walked our roads on the weekends with a garbage bag picking up garbage people through out of their car. We respected (and still do) the land. We respected our neighbors and friends. We spent our Christmas singing carols to the elderly in retirement homes and went through our toys and gave some of what we had or no longer played with to the needy kids. I saw the end of segregation and learned about the struggles and was taught to never treat anyone differently or how I would not want to be treated. Mama taught us how to quilt and can and when power outages came we played word games on paper and pencil by hurricaine lamps. We grew up on Herb Alpert, Booker T, Moody Blues, Elton John, soft rock and disco and my grandma and grandpa taught my sister and I how to polka with Lawrence Welk.
My schoolmates were the same way, so it just wasn't my family. So, yes, my generation was the last of the great generations. If we are in a situation it is our choice and our faults. We don't blame others. Many people in generations after us cannot function without electronics, are self centered and nothing is ever their fault, it's always the generations before them's fault. They can't function in a power outage because there is no TV or their electronic games don't work. The lyrics to many of their songs have no meaning and they think laying in the sun and looking at clouds making picture out of them is boring always have to be doing something making some noise.
I won't go into any more about them. I am not part of that generation. I am part of the last of the great generations.
Post edited as some took offense.
You forgot to tell us to get off your lawn! - nm
[ In Reply To ..]!
That was rude and uncalled for. She wrote why she is proud - You just felt the need to insult
[ In Reply To ..]Sheesh!
Yes... it was a lovely post by a member of "Generation Me" all about her! - I like this part...
[ In Reply To ..]"Generations after us cannot function without electronics, are self centered and nothing is ever their fault, it's always the generations before them's fault. They can't function in a power outage because there is no TV or their electronic games don't work. The lyrics to their music has no meaning and they think laying in the sun and looking at clouds making picture out of them is boring always have to be doing something making some noise. "
Please don't accuse me of being rude and insulting when I'm responding (in a joking fashion) to an insult.
I have no TV, cell phone or video game console. - Gen X'er.
[ In Reply To ..]Apparently I'm not supposed to be able to function without those things. Somehow I didn't get the memo.
Don't tell anyone, but I'd rather read books.
Yes that's right, it's the other persons fault that you are - blaming them for it being their fault
[ In Reply To ..]Now that's rich!
I didn't take it that way. I was a lovely post about why she likes - her generation and why she is proud
[ In Reply To ..]of what she learned and what life was like where she grew up. It wasn't about her, it was about why she believes it is a great generation. It's pretty hard to write about why you like something and why you think its great from your experiences without writing about your experiences.
What you wrote was not in a "joking fashion". You were rude, and what she wrote was not an insult, its her observation. The generations after her do center on themselves. It has to be about them. I have family members born after her generation and all they talk about is themselves. They never ask about others, just me, me, me. And it's true, they cannot function without some stupid electronic gadget sticking out of their hands or heads and God forbid when a snow storm comes and they can't leave the home. They have an irrational screaming fit because they are not being stimulated by always being pleasured. Many of my siblings and their friends and kids are like that. You think its an insult? I say she was just stating the obvious.
God forbid you not paint an ENTIRE generation - with the same brush.
[ In Reply To ..]Unbelievable.
I'm a Gen X'er, and I call major BS on the insults you and Baby boomer wrote. I don't have a cell phone, or even a TV! Do I think what you are both saying is insulting? Yes, I do. And I'm not joking, at all.
Your generalizations are terribly rude and no, they are not the "obvious," unless you live in a world where you make huge generalizations and then state them as if they are the end-all, be-all fact, irregardless of what reality is. Then I guess it would be "obvious." So yeah, other than all of that, her post was just lovely!
Edited my post. Sorry you took offense - Baby Boomer
[ In Reply To ..]OBVIOUSLY not everyone is the same. I don't generalize everyone in the same category, therefore edited my post.
And I'm sorry I had such a major freakout. - sm
[ In Reply To ..]I really got irritated about that for some reason, waaaaaay more than I should have. I apologize.
Not a problem. I am really sorry too. I did the same freakout - Baby Boomer
[ In Reply To ..]When someone wrote to me here that I'm part of the worst generation. I just tried to explain why I think my generation is such a great generation from my experiences.
I'm sure you have a lot of great things about your generation that I have no idea exist. I have siblings and in-laws in the generation after me and they are so self centered and uncaring only talking about themselves and when we had a huge snow storm he was freaking out cos the TV was out, but of course I know that is not the way it is with everyone and I'm really sorry it came out that way.
I think some of the baby boomers... - another Gen X-er
[ In Reply To ..]...are ascribing characteristics that are generally associated with Millenials (those born in the early 1980s to the 2010s) to those of us who are Gen X-ers (born 1965-1980). I actually hate painting with a broad brush, and I have many wonderful friends and family who are Baby Boomers, but you've got to admit that the Baby Boomer generation is largely responsible for the way the world is today and that my generation and the generations after will have to clean up the mess that is left.
And for the record, I recycle, like to read, am not any more dependent on electronics than any other generation, care deeply about civil rights, and have never to my knowledge confused music with flashy underwear(?).
you're right - sm
[ In Reply To ..]Not only did I generalize, but I totally misunderstood which set of people are Generation X. My apologies.
I would like to add, though, that we Baby Boomers also grew up believing that the preceding generation was responsible for everything that was wrong.
As you grow older you will come to see that the relationship between politicians and corporations, politics and economics, drives the bus.
Baby boomers have watched the government cater to private interests with regard to energy, healthcare, and the environment for the last 35-40 years. It's a heartbreaker.
I think we're on the same page... - another Gen X-er
[ In Reply To ..]The fact that our government caters to corporate interests has a lot to do with most of the problems we face today. Yes, a heartbreaker because I don't see it ending anytime soon.
then why is your generation called Generation X? - SM
[ In Reply To ..]What makes baby boomers the "worst" generation? When I was a kid, we were v-e-r-y aware of social and political movements. We grew up well-versed in ecology and pollution. We had music that was conscious and meaningful, and was used to communicate socially and politically.
You generation X kiddos can't even recycle, you think civil rights are equivalent to reverse racism, and you confuse music with flashy underwear.
^^^ - like : )
[ In Reply To ..]
Can't recycle? It seems to me people recycle - far more now than back then.
[ In Reply To ..]I'm not sure what you mean by that, or by the flashy underwear comment.
There is a lot of good music these days. Maybe you just haven't heard it. I personally don't listen to a lot of mainstream music, but my husband and I are very into ambient, sort of trip-hoppy, very mellow and sometimes uber-booty shaking music. A lot of very, very good music, if you are interested enough to dig around for it.
umm...yeah - sm
[ In Reply To ..]We didn't have recycling "back then". We do now. The point I was making was that, in my experience, it seems to be somewhat challenging for gen X-ers to recycle.
I listen to a lot of good music. I don't have to dig. And neither do you.
I still don't know what you mean, that it's - challenging for them to recycle.
[ In Reply To ..]I really don't understand what you mean by that. It seems to me to be just the opposite.
cool. I hope you're right. - sm
[ In Reply To ..]Like I said, in my experience, it looks like younger people are a bit recalcitrant when it comes to recycling. Hopefully, it IS just the opposite.
I personally believe that each member (Democratic or - Libby
[ In Reply To ..]Republican) that votes to shut this government down, thus forcing us into the "deadbeat country" status should be IMPEACHED immediately. The jeopardy in which they are placing this country, not to mention PLANET, is NOT in keeping with the duties they swore when they took their oaths. Cruz, et al., are trying to get rid of a LAW that was sanctioned by the SCOTUS, by the people who voted for Obama (TWICE), and passed Congress, etc.
I believe when the President says he'll never negotiate with terrorists, the word "terrorists" should also include Congress.
Since the house passed a bill to not shut the government down, we will see what Reid and the Preside - oldie
[ In Reply To ..]xx
Oh, it doesn't matter. They will just spin it and tell the tale (sm) - Not Stupid
[ In Reply To ..]to the mostly ignorant public on the ignorant MSM programs that it's the Republicans that are doing it, and the masses of idiots will believe it. Modus operandi as usual.
some may beg to differ - nm
[ In Reply To ..]
They've been doing that for the past several weeks (nm) - Truthhurts
[ In Reply To ..].
Obama has already called The Republicans terrorists - Truthhurts
[ In Reply To ..]among other harsh words that truly do not belong in any speeches he makes. It just further divides the parties.
He needs to learn that not everything he is thinking needs to be broadcast to the world. He also needs to keep politics out of memorial services for victims. He has done that every single time and it's not what the families want or need to hear. They need to hear compassion from the president, not politics.
He needs to learn that Congress (GOP) isn't "messing" with him. They are serious.
He thinks, as does Pelosi in her dream world, that people against him president because of his color and not his policies.
I swear that woman is totally in love with him and I'm wondering...when Congress gets their wellness checks, do they ever get their minds checked? I think she definitely is going off the deep end lately.
Would it surprise you to know that, depending on which poll you see, 54% to 56% of the people do NOT want Obamacare because it's not "ready for prime time?"
Did you know that the computer that is supposed to figure out the subsidies for families has been given totally wrong info and crashed? This was a test run and was not using the total population of the U.S. What do you think will happen if they don't get that straightened out?
Lastly, when has a president ever thought he is above the law and above negotiating with Congress? He rarely did that, even on his first day as president in 2009. Remember when he said "I'M President now"? Right then and there, I knew he would be the My Way or No Way president. When does King Reid think he is above negotiating with the other side? This is why things don't get done.
BTW, did you also know the Republicans DO have a health plan? Too bad MSM refuses to let the people know.
Sorry, did not mean to turn this into a vent. I'll shut up now. :)
Actually I didn't know - NK
[ In Reply To ..]that the Republicans DO have a health plan. I just googled and the only hits I got were the GOP's efforts to kill the ACA. Is that the plan you're referring to? Oh, and I got one regarding a Newt Gingrich speech in August saying the GOP has "zero ideas" on a health plan, so he must not know either.
Actually, there is a plan. They've had a plan all along - Truthhurts
[ In Reply To ..]and they have made changes, but this is the latest.
http://www.cbsnews.com/htdocs/pdf/GOPHealthPlan_061709.pdf
I must have missed it - NK
[ In Reply To ..]When did they bring this "plan" up and debate it on the floor? When was it put to a vote? It couldn't possibly be that in 4 years they're still trying to get it together, could it?
Are you talking about the plan... - dlt
[ In Reply To ..]...where the uninsured use the emergency room as their primary care and the rest of us pick up the slack? That plan?
Read the plan - Truthhurts
[ In Reply To ..]/
I would read it if I could find it! - ann other
[ In Reply To ..]
I posted the website where it is! - Truthhurts
[ In Reply To ..]So, you didn't read my post?
I saw that. Since it's not a plan, I thought I missed something. - and yes, I read your post
[ In Reply To ..](*sigh*)
In case you can't find my post above yours - Truthhurts
[ In Reply To ..]http://general.mtstars.com/361786.html
It looks like Obamacare. What differences are there? - and it's pretty general
[ In Reply To ..]I'd like to see specifics and contrasts.
Seems like if the Reps would actually cooperate, the ACA could be tweaked with input from both parties rather than ditch ACA so the Reps could come up with basically the same thing.
that's because it's not a plan - it's a set of notions - nm
[ In Reply To ..]
That's more like a collection of objectives - than a plan.
[ In Reply To ..]And when did they come up with it, anyway? AFTER Obamacare? Is that what it took for Republicans to give some attention to healthcare? They're a little late out of the gate on that one.
Stuff like "provides patients with access to health care information" is not really earth shattering. Things like "encourages home care," "modernizing Medicare reimbursements," "rewards high-quality care," etc, are all really vague and don't give any kind of procedure or information, just phrases.
It reads like a resume, not a plan.
no, Obama did not call the republicans terrorists - sm
[ In Reply To ..]A "news" outlet TOLD its viewers that he did. And as if by magic - and in the absence of any truth - they believed it.
Okay, it was others who called the Republicans terrorists BUT - Truthhurts
[ In Reply To ..]Hostage taker is just as bad. In fact, most hostage takers are terrorists, aren't they?
Extortion is just as bad.
None of these words are proper words to be used as a president against a party. If you want truth, you'll be pretty hard to find it in any media. Journalism as a truth seeker is pretty well dead.
BTW he has also used extortion and hostage taking as a means to try to get what he wanted.
I still call him the divider for he has done nothing to unite the Congress.
but no...he didn't say that either - sm
[ In Reply To ..]He did not call republicans hostage takers. Nor did he use "extortion and hostage taking as a means to try to get what he wanted." Rather, he referred to the American middle class as being held hostage. He did not say he would use extortion to get what he wanted, for goodness sake.
But yes, he did. Guess you really didn't listen to the link that was posted. - Truthhurts
[ In Reply To ..]Try listening again to the link above. At 0:26 he definitely says hostage takers.
As for extortion, he just stated that the other day. "President Obama effectively ended any Republican hopes of getting a political victory on the debt ceiling when he called their demands extortion. Nobody likes being extorted." (This from a liberal website).
For further proof, you can check out this video at 1:20.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3XrLCiZsdPQ
TH, he used the word "extort" in a sentence - sm
[ In Reply To ..]this doesn't mean he was promoting extortion. That said, I get a little tired of you ASSUMING we didn't really listen just because we don't come to the same conclusions you do.
I didn't assume you didn't listen. I know you didn't listen - Truthhurts
[ In Reply To ..]otherwise you wouldn't have disagreed with the name calling he did at the video parts I pointed out in my other post. Should I point out the time line in that word, too?
As for "extort," he was talking about the Republicans and the bill they passed. So he's calling the Republicans extortionists. That's what he meant and you know it! I don't cover remarks by trying to change the meaning of his speech.
you know? - sm
[ In Reply To ..]TH, I told you I listened, and I did. The fact that I simply don't share your interpretation of what the president said does not give you license to call me a liar. Nor does it give you the liberty to tell me how I *should* have responded.
Please be aware that if the roles were reversed here, and I addressed YOU this way, I'd be wiped off the board faster than you could say "Calgon, take me away". (And you know it.)
TH I don't think it's that they don't listen, they just won't admit it - just like....
[ In Reply To ..]Indiana Jones when they throw him a snake and say "grab the snake". He says stop calling it that". What do you want me to call it". "Call it a stick".
They'll never ever admit they are wrong when they are.
at least *they* have the integrity - sm
[ In Reply To ..]to address posters directly and appropriately, rather than talking about *them* behind *their* backs as if *they* are not in the room.
They, they, they.
OMG - Did you just say that - An independent
[ In Reply To ..]Is that you Libby? Or better question is who are you and what have you done with Libby? LOL.
I have never ever agreed with you and have had some pretty strong "words" with you in the past, but you have just written something that sounds exactly like what I would have written.
Love your post - I will from now on not be so quick to argue with you.
Thank you. LOL. (sm) - Libby
[ In Reply To ..]I'm like you; I'm an independent/ unaffiliated.
I may have voted republican once or twice in my life, but that's it.
Thank you for the compliment. As you can imagine, I don't get them very often. :-)

It was early 2009, and the Senate Democratic Leader was reeling from the revelation that he praised Barack Obama’s “light skin” and lack of a “Negro dialect.” Polls showed Reid going to the way of his predecessor, Tom Daschle, who lost reelection in 2004, as the Nevadan faced revolt both at home and in Washington, and on both the right and left.
