President Barack Obama's killing of Osama bin Laden is not enough to re-elect him 19 May 2011 16:19 Africa/Lagos President Obama's Job Rating Unchanged Since Early May, but Half of Americans Unlikely to Vote to Re-Elect Him Employment/Jobs and the Economy still most important issues for government to address PR Newswire NEW YORK, May 19, 2011 NEW YORK, May 19, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- While President Obama 's job ratings may not have changed much from the gain they saw after the death of Osama Bin Laden , there are some shifts the White House probably should worry about as they pertain to his re-election numbers. Currently, 45% of Americans give the President positive ratings for the overall job he is doing while 55% give him negative ratings. Earlier this month, right after the death of the terrorist leader, 46% gave President Obama positive ratings and 54% gave him negative marks.

So? ... A Note from Michael Moore Monday, March 24th, 2008 Friends, It would have to happen on Easter Sunday, wouldn't it, that the 4,000th American soldier would die in Iraq. Play me that crazy preacher again, will you, about how maybe God, in all his infinite wisdom, may not exactly be blessing America these days. Is anyone surprised? 4,000 dead. Unofficial estimates are that there may be up to 100,000 wounded, injured, or mentally ruined by this war. And there could be up to a million Iraqi dead. We will pay the consequences of this for a long, long time. God will keep blessing America. And where is Darth Vader in all this? A reporter from ABC News this week told Dick Cheney, in regards to Iraq, "two-thirds of Americans say it's not worth fighting." Cheney cut her off with a one word answer: "So?" "So?" As in, "So what?" As in, "F*** you. I could care less." I would like every American to see Cheney flip the virtual bird at t...

Samantha Power Samantha Power , the senior foreign policy adviser to Senator Barack Obama , called Senator Hillary Clinton a "monster" Thursday night, whilst talking to some Scottish reporters. This could be the beginning of the negative attacks planned by the Barack Obama Camp since losing in three states to Hillary Clinton last Tuesday. They are now scared of losing woefully in the Pennsylvania primary next month. Negative attacks will only worsen the chances of Barack Obama's quest for the White House . "She is a monster, too - that is off the record - she is stooping to anything," Samantha Power said and added more abusive remarks. "You just look at her and think: ergh. But if you are poor and she is telling you some story about how Obama is going to take your job away, maybe it will be more effective. The amount of deceit she has put forward is really unattractive," she added...

Give it To Hillary Clinnton Today is my birthday and my birthday wish is, you should join me to support Hillary Clinton for President. I am very glad and grateful to God for giving me the grace to be one of the HillRaisers supporting Hillary Clinton for President. You must be faithful to what you believe in, based on justice, love, peace and unity. For better or for worse. If you do not give up, you will get to the top.

May I share the following message from Hillary Clinton and I ask you to donate in support of her ca...
