It's down about 5% since you said it was "dropping like a rock"...last spring...

 

[FUCK THE POLICE]

Time to run all conservatives OUT OF AMERICA.

 

[Epicurus]

It's down about 5% since you said it was "dropping like a rock"...last spring...

It is a pretty significant drop over the last month though. I think it's reflective of moderates discontent with the healthcare bill and liberals discontent with losing the public option and the deployment of more troops to Afghanistan.

I want to hear from the 48.8% of the goofballs out there who think this clown is doing an acceptable job!

 

[TuTu Monroe]

It's going to go even lower with his obvious weakness on Iran.

I'd like to hear from the 20% or so who actually support conservative policies!

Line up conservatives, shoot through them, repeat.

Well, one goofball has weighed in... any more out there???

You won't catch me spinning like you did when Bush had low #'s (hey, if they called me, I'd probably say I didn't approve too!)

If they called me, I'd definitely say "approve." He's done quite a bit of what I expected him to do, and the national priorities have shifted in a big way. The economy is also turning around, which is pretty huge.

So yeah - one approval here...

One more.
With the fantasy you displayed about bush's record just last week, you have little to talk about re: Obama's performance after he was handed the mess bush created on almost every front and left behind for others to solve.

I concur.....America's "instant gratification" attitudes coupled with the wimpy, bend over backwards accomodating sections of the Dem party and Obama is not sitting well. To me, it's a reality check....but unfortunately if you let the neocon driven GOP back into full power...well, we've had 8 years of (shudder) THAT!

 

[FUCK THE POLICE]

Healthcare must be passed by any means necessary, whatever the cost.

Okay, Stalin. Calm down.

Yeah, poor guy.... I guess he shouldn't have run for president if he wasn't up to the job, huh? Well, that's okay, we'll see if we can't remedy that in 2012... maybe get someone in there who is able to actually tackle the problems instead of whining about what was inherited.

 

[FUCK THE POLICE]

Conservatives need to thrown into the sea.

 

[USFREEDOM911]

Conservatives need to thrown into the sea.

Libtards, like you, need to be weighted down and sunk to the bottom of the sea.

I think your correct but I don't think it correlates accurately with electoral politics. The Republican party is still dominated by the far right and the American public will continue to support Obama vs a far right alternative.

Ooooo Good nickname for Watermark. "Lil Joe"

You mean like Bush was? [/sarcasm]
