Even his own have to admit, his friendship meetings with the GOP are a sham.

This is short and sweet:  the Politico,  a far, far Left leaning digital rag, has had to admit that this past week’s “friendship” tour by B. Obama,  has fooled no one.  It's conclusion is ours:   

The truth is Obama has lost some leverage — and needed a bunch of high-profile meetings with adversaries to swat away reports that he’s too stubborn and too political. But, in private, nothing has really changed.

Actually,  it is called,  “Obama’s charm offensive,”  and its reason for existence is noted by Charles Krauthammer: 

“Obama’s strongest constituency, which is not the left, it’s the mainstream media, could no longer cover for him without being entirely embarrassed,” Krauthammer observed Friday night on FNC, “It had to expose the one exaggeration after another on the sequester.”

Understand that Obama's popularity has fallen 10 points to 44% ,  in just two weeks.  Republicans,  who always poll poorly,  stand at 40%.  With Independents,  Obama is running at 50% disapproval.  He carries a 41% approval rate with Whites and a 96% approval with the mindless and biased black voter.  You should remember that more than 60% of whites voted for Obama in 2008,  but his arrogant and combative "style" of   "leadership"  has proven to be a serious determent to his political cashe.  And now,  we may be watching the increasing displeasure of the Compliant Media.  Time will tell.
