Calling most people idiots isnt the nicest thing to do, if you are a liberal you should be nicer as you are supposed to believe in Freedom.
As an Independent, I would strongly recommend you read both Common Sense Books. Glen Beck put out a new one and it has the old. He very clearly (even idiots should be able to get it) outlines the issues with current government. Oh and both parties suck...
If you read anything by Glenn Beck, then you are an idiot. No way around that. Plus calling someone an idiot in no way affects their freedoms.

From Websters:
idiot:an utterly foolish or senseless person.
The level of educational attainment has nothing to do with lack of common sense and the incredible naivete of those falling for the "change" line. I am college educated and knew many PhDs that probably could not survive outside of academia because they had no clue how the real world works.

That's because you fail to understand who they are. It's not his base that's abandoning him.
As I said in the post directly before your post, which you apparently didn't read:
These people fail to understand the situation the economy is in and who is to blame and what's needed to fix it. They're not the types exactly to read books and get informed.
Craig, with all due respect, people arent abandoning him because, as you put it, "'Obama didn't double the stock market in six months without any deficit increase". Not even close. Do you ever read any of his criticism? People are abandoning him because 1. he's backing off of campaign promises, and 2. he's continuing, in many things, to follow Bush's foot steps on many important things. Things that, if I may say, Bush was blasted about, and Obama supporters seem to be either minimalizing or giving him a pass on.
Everyone knows the economy is fooked. I dont think anyone expected him to "'double the stock market in six months without any deficit increase", or anything close. Its a strawman defense.
to be fair, i don't think any candidate would be in a favorable position now.
but that's not saying i agree with obama's moves so far. far from it.

Correct.
Calling most people idiots isnt the nicest thing to do, if you are a liberal you should be nicer as you are supposed to believe in Freedom.
It wasn't most, thank goodness, but many. It's not not nice, it's meant as an objective statement and for a constructive prupose, not name-calling.
And I'm in favor of a lot of freedoms for pretty much everyone. That's one reason I try to help people who are being duped into giving them up, or worse allowing them to be taken from others, to understand the mistake and correct it Unfortunately, many people are pretty easy to manipulate.
As an Indepednant, you would do better to avoid garbage by radical right-wing people who mislead you.
If you would like to post one or a few of what you thought his best arguments are, I'd be happy to comment.

Oh yea, you are a troll.
I looked at the DU thread on the detentions today, and let me tell you, he is pissing off his base.
Yeah, someone who makes more than 10K posts a year is calling someone else a troll. GAFL kid and a job.

since when does high post count make someone a troll? since when does post count mean anything actually?
It appears the independents are migrating towards the (R) party due to fiscal conservatism.

Is this the part where I'm supposed to foam at the mouth and say i'm not a kid and scan my 1040s to prove i'm employed because some anonymous e-thug made fun of the all-sacred post count?
Do you have an on-topic post about Obama's drop in the polls?
It is called being against every new massive spending bill Obama proposes.
Being the opposition is great, isnt it? All you have to do is say you dont agree with what is going on, and that you would do it differently. Isnt that how the pendulum swung back to the (D)s ? They voted for Iraq, funded Iraq, etc....but still said "Oh we would have never done that."
So when public opinion swung massively against Iraq, what party was there to catch all of those angry swing voters?
If Obama tanks the USD and public opinion swings against federal spending in a time of crisis, guess what party will be waiting with the moniker of "Fiscal conservatism."?

No, this is the part when you are supposed to look in the mirror when calling someone else a troll. When did I ever say I supported Obama or voted for the guy? I didn't used to post as Pabster.

When did OCguy accuse you of that?
People have attention spans of 10 mins. Nobody will remember the 400 billlion dollar deficits of Bush, nor care, when they are looking at 1-2 trillion dollar deficits from Obama and Democrats and a smack down on our economy from other reforms.
Did you even read the polls posted in the OP?
Rasmussen polls based on how many people strongly approve of the job Obama is doing versus how many people strongly disapprove of the job Obama is doing. According to this, Obama's approval rating is -8, meaning more people strongly disapprove of the job Obama is doing than strongly approve of it.
The links were even provided...or did you just feel like spouting out typical Democrat talking points?
:roll:
I can't remember the last time I considered the probability of my vote over the principle.
The funny part is, with an apathetic mindset like that you're the idiot wasting your vote, and furthermore the reason America has such blind faith in our two most incumbent parties.
