Obama's poll numbers keep falling: War on Islamic terrorism shows falling confidence

These numbers are a few days old but do will give you a clear enough picture that the American people are losing confidence in Obama and this administration to protect the citizens of our country. The Muslim in the White House, the first Muslim POTUS refuses to use the word 'terrorist' and just like the Bush administration, keeps on repeating that Islam is our friend, it is a religion of peace. Perhaps Obama should stop in Russia on BEFORE he visits Indonesia, the country with the world's largest population of Muslims and ask the Russian people how they feel about Islamic terrorists after today's homicide bombings in the subways of Moscow? Obama is an appeaser, a coward and a chicken.

War on Terror Update

Just 35% Say U.S. Safer Today Than Before 9/11

Confidence that America is winning the war on terror is down slightly this month, and belief that the United States is safer today than it was before 9/11 has hit its lowest level ever.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that just 35% of voters think America is safer now than it was before the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. That’s down from 39% last month.

Thirty-eight percent (38%) say the United States is not safer today, and 27% more are not sure.

Confidence has been steadily declining since the Christmas Day terrorist attempt to blow up an airliner landing in Detroit.

Forty-two percent (42%) of voters now say the United States and its allies are winning the war on terror. That’s down eight points from a month ago but more in line with findings since August. Twenty-three percent (23%) believe the terrorists are winning, and 24% think it’s a draw.

Twenty-eight percent (28%) expect the war in Afghanistan to get better in the next six months. Thirty-five percent (35%) say the war there will get worse. Twenty-four percent (24%) predict it will stay about the same.

The figures on Afghanistan are a bit more pessimistic than a month ago but more optimistic than voters have been for most of the past year.

Voters are slightly less optimistic about winning the war in Afghanistan despite a highly publicized, thus far successful U.S. offensive against Taliban forces now taking place there.

Thirty-five percent (35%) say the war in Iraq will get better in the next six months, while 28% believe it will worsen. Twenty-five percent (25%) say it will remain about the same. This, too, marks an increase in pessimism from a month ago but is more in keeping with voter sentiments about the war in Iraq over recent months.

Obama administration and U.S. military officials insist that Iraq’s elections earlier this month were a success and that the plan for removing all troops from the country by the end of next year is on schedule. But only 40% of voters are even somewhat confident that all U.S. troops will be withdrawn from Iraq by the end of 2011 as planned. Fifty-six percent (56%) don’t share that confidence.

Just 15% of voters believe the war in Iraq is now over.
