There must be a lot of stupid people in the USA, 'cause 'Bama's

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

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?


Heh, heh... Tim. You don't actually expect a clear response to that,
do you? She only gives vacuous responses, and makes feeble attempts
to put down other's posts. There's nothing there worth engaging...
unless you're really bored.

It's a more female version of donnie.



Heh, heh. You're having trouble competing with an "average" woman.

Thus, if you remove the outliers (both right and left), you're left with a
more rational view..

Your President Obama has the largest presidential approval ratings
freefall. Obama has dropped 21 points in 11 months.

Former president Carter only dropped 14 points in his first 11 months.
Mr. Obama is making Carter look good.

Here are inauguration day approval numbers, December numbers, and the
change from inauguration day until December for each of the presidents


IKE 66 60 -6
KENNEDY 72 78 6
NIXON 60 60 0
CARTER 69 55 -14
REAGAN 53 49 -4
BUSH 1 63 70 7
CLINTON 55 55 0
BUSH 2 59 85 26
OBAMA 68 47 -21

The above numbers are from Gallup poll data.

Then, I suggest you vote for Palin in 2012.
