There must be a lot of stupid people in the USA, 'cause 'Bama's
approval ratings aren't looking too good. Seems like folks just don't
appreciate all the great things he is doing for his country, like
trying to sell it out at Copenhagen.


"The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Monday
shows that 24% of the nation's voters Strongly Approve of the way that
Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Forty-two percent
(42%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index
rating of -18."

or Fox got theirs from Rasmussen


I have a friend who only looks at Rasmussen. It pretty clearly has a
right-leaning bias. It always seems to be one of the outliers.

OK, *If you dont' like Rasmussen then what poll IS truely fair and
balanced that cuts right down the middle, and not to the left or the
right?
