@realjohnboy,
All else considered, I believe Obama is holding onto his approval ratings pretty well. He's taken some drastic steps to help our economy (which I don't approve of 100%), but he is trying to reduce the damage which should be what most people should be able to see. Hundreds of thousands of people are still losing their jobs and homes, and until this is turned around, our economy will not begin to show any improvement.
The fear of inflation by the right-wingers are just pissing in the wind; they have nothing to prove it except politics. Isn't it strange that all was well when Bush spent those trillions increasing our national debt (with no benefits ennuring to Americans except to the friends of the administration), but when Obama does it to stop the bleeding of our economy, the right-wingers shout "fire!"
Right-wingers claim that printing money will be inflationary; I want them to prove it in today's economic environment? Shouldn't be difficult if they understood a) macro-economics, and b) the many countries that had debt over 100% of GDP (including the US at 120% of GDP during WWII), and they all "recovered" without inflation.
