A quote often attributed to Japanese Admiral Yamamoto, “I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve” may be a message from history that the Progressive movement, led by President Obama, should have listened to.
While President Bush left office with a very low approval rating, primarily driven by an MSM feeding frenzy, his popularity appears to be rebounding quite well after leaving office. A recent Gallup poll shows Obama’s popularity at 52 percent, and George Bush at 45 percent. During Obama’s time in office, his overall popularity has fallen 20 percent, Bush’s has risen by 10. Quite a significant turn around, given Bush finds it necessary to swim against the tide of the MSM, while Obama has them washing his feet. Against all odds, and a very vocal minority, Bush’s star is rising as Obama’s falls.
Also significant :
A prominent Democratic pollster is circulating a survey that shows George W. Bush is 6 points more popular than President Obama in “Frontline” districts — seats held by Democrats that the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee sees as most vulnerable to Republican takeover. That Bush is more popular than Obama in Democratic-held seats is cause for outright fear.
To what would we attribute these turnovers in presidential popularity ? It would appear the sleeping giant is awakening in response to Obama’s full frontal assault assault against America.
We have all seen the “Do You Miss Me Yet ?” posters. It would also seem that America’s answer is quickly becoming ‘Hell, Yes!’.
