This just seen on TV. Of course it came from the MSM, the people who are catering to the main stream Americans. Yes, I guess they're biased towards Obama, but as mentioned in other threads, they are profit making corporations, catering to the majority. Side note, I'm not sure I buy this in it's entirety, but interesting nonetheless. 91% Approval. 9% Disapproval I am seriously surprised by this. http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503544_162-20029581-503544.html c
Wall Street Journal readers weren't so generous. Mostly D's and F's. http://online.wsj.com/community/gro...cs/how-would-you-grade-president-obamas-state
OK, fair enough. MSM or Rupert Murdoch's team. I seriously doubt both, really. I give it a personal 80% about a b- or so. c
Obama's '8th grade reading level' SOTU address: By the numbers Tuesday's State of the Union had one of the lowest reading comprehension levels in decades. Did the president dumb things down too much? ----------- File this under ; "There ya go."...
I get that, and to be honest, based on what I read and hear, we may have to go down a grade or two for both sides. People are applauding and hating things they just don't understand. They follow a talking point or radio host or whatever, and it's just like rooting for a sports team based on the color of their t-shirts. RA RA for my team, or whatever. c
Since it was a campaign speech and not really a SOTU for Congress it had to be dumbed down for the commoners to understand. Viewership was down 12% from last year, though. I won't give Obama a grade since I think everyone here can guess what it would be.
