The Dick Cheney of Great BritainWhat do Dick Cheney, Angelina Jolie and a majority of Americans have in common? Let's find out in today's edition of Obama Fail Watch!
1.) More bad polling news... President Obama's approval rating has dropped to 45% in the Rasmussen Reports daily tracking poll. [Rasmussen Reports]
2.) The Los Angeles Times is shocked that some on the left are agreeing with former VP Dick Cheney's analysis that President Obama is a dithering amateur. [Los Angeles Times]
3.) The aforementioned Cheney continued to prove why he is America's Winston Churchill, in a radio interview with Scott Hennen. Specifically, Cheney is not happy with Obama's tendency to get down with world leaders:
"I think it's fundamentally harmful and it shows in my mind that this is a guy, a president, who would bow, for example, who doesn't fully understand or have the same perception of the U.S. role in the world that I think most Americans have," he says.
Cheney concludes: "What I see in President Obama is somebody who bows before foreign leaders and spends his trips aboard primarily apologizing for U.S. behavior. I find that very upsetting."

4.) During the Hennen interview, Cheney blasted Obama's dithering on Afghanistan. He pointed out that valuable time has been lost, regardless of Obama's final decision:
"I worry that there’s a lack of understanding of what this means from the perspective of the troops," he said. "You know, if you’re out there on the line day in and day out and putting your life at risk on a volunteer basis for the nation and you see the Commander in Chief unable to or appearing to be unable to make a decision about the way forward here – you know that raises serious doubts."
Cheney went on to suggest the "very costly" delay in a decision could be attributed to "inexperience" and argue that "every day that goes by raises doubts in the minds of our friends and allies in the region about what you’re going to do."

5.) President Obama (dba Congressman David Obey) is floating the idea of a "war tax." Buckle your seatbelts, this won't be pretty, but it will be petty! [CBS News]
6.) Although most of Hollywood has succumbed to Obamamania, Angelina Jolie apparently hasn't:
“She hates him,” a source close to Jolie tells Us Weekly. ”She’s into education and rehabilitation and thinks Obama is all about welfare and handouts. She thinks Obama is really a socialist in disguise,” adds the source.
But don’t expect to see her rally against Democrats on Fox News like her staunch Republican father, Jon Voight.
“Angie isn’t Republican, but she thinks Obama is all smoke and mirrors,” the source says.
