Gallup Reports Largest Declines in Satisfaction With Government: Americans Dissatisfied With Moral and Ethical Climate

At Gallup, "U.S. Satisfaction With Gov't, Morality, Economy Down Since '08":

Most of the information is dealing with economic issues, but I agree with this:
President Obama has an important opportunity to address Americans' concerns in his State of the Union address.
That 30 percent mark on the moral climate is a new low for Gallup polling, and it's on Obama's watch. I'd say it's incumbent on the president to repudiate the leftist hate and debauchery that we've seen so far in 2011. Progressives are destroying this country. They say Obama's moving to the right, although I'm skeptical. I'll be more convinced if he returns to some of the moral clarity that characterized his emergence on the national scene in 2004.
