Scott Pelley on CBS did another hit piece on Obama with these dumb ass supposed voters.

For example the on focus group panel member saying he was looking for lots of changes but only has the change in his pocket.

I'm tired of these people that complain but in all likelihood don't vote or are totally clueless about government. And totally clueless about the changes that have occurred under Obama or they are pushing their anti-Obama agenda.

Because most DUers are hurting. There may be a few who are flying high and can't see the truth, but the country is 3 years later, not much better. Certainly not where we need to be.

Why should they support The President after the change they got.

I Got Mine just fine, and I'm disappointed too from Obama.

But those NASA employees lost everything they had under President Obama.

On the space coast, no candidate is good enough

(CBS News)

Nowhere is the economy a bigger issue this election year than in Florida. Nationally, unemployment is eight-and-a-half percent. In Florida, it's nearly ten percent.

The end of the space shuttle program alone cost more than 7,000 jobs. With the primary coming on Tuesday, CBS News anchor Scott Pelley spoke to former shuttle workers.

Lou Hannah, Holly Petrucci, Mike Carpenter and Joe Urich knew that the shuttle was being retired. And, they expected to go to work on another space program called "Constellation."

I'll see you lose your livelihood after being lead to believe that there would be a job for you and not be upset. I had that happen to me, and yeah, I'm upset with the system.

That's not a hit piece, that's journalism. I don't see it as anti-Obama. I see it as just another article on a failing economy.
