Obama is paying the price for our nation having a high percentage of idiot citizens.

His overall approval rating is still above 50%, but that could change soon.

Indeed, and most of said idiots voted for him.

The first step of recovery is recognizing you have a problem.

Glad to see you're well on your way.

Considering that he hasn't really done much of anything yet and nothing that he has done has been measurable yet, I think that this shows more of the gullibility of the average person than anything else.

Hey Craig, gonna post in the Obama/dentention thread?

No, I didn't think so. You're an idiot, a coward, and a hypocrite. Which is probably why you vote Democrat to begin with.

Real men vote third party.

He needs to use the political capital to push through reforms, while it's still there.

He hasn't done anything? :confused:



Do you watch 24/7 cable channels for news or something? I know Michael Jackson is important, but there is real stuff happening out there.

Gallup reported his approval rating at 57% on June 25-27.

On June 28-30, it went up to 63%.

Why didn't OCguy make a thread about that?

Now it's back down to 56%. It'll be up over 60% again by next week.

Even 56% is more than Obama needs to crush the GOP :thumbsup:

Why do you support him when he continues illegal detentions and aggression towards Pakistan? :confused:

Oh yea, you are a troll.



I looked at the DU thread on the detentions today, and let me tell you, he is pissing off his base.

So are you going to change the title of this thread when he's approval rating goes up in a few days?

I'll make sure to remind you of his approval rating as soon as it changes.

Real men vote for candidates that have zero chance of winning, so they never need to stand up and defend their ideology! You're a real tough guy there, Boberfett.

There are only two types of people who vote third party in America. Those attempting to influence one of the two major parties through their vote, and morons. Anyone who understands how our electoral system works wouldn't vote for a third party candidate for any other reason and would save themselves the time and expense of going to the polls.

Fixed.

I don't support any third party I support the progressive wing of the Democratic party - but I do support an improvement to democracy to help third parties get an equal shot.

That improvement is 'ranked voting', where you can choose the guy you really want first (or the gal obviously), but if he doesn't do well and the election comes down to the Democrat and the Republican, whichever of those two you pick higher does count as a vote for that person. This would remove the problem of 'throwing away your vote

Sadly, it doesn't do anything to help voters understand why voting for Libertarians is a terrible vote anyway.

Sure, I can do a Mcowen-esque thread on his ratings instead of oil :roll:


Rasmussen has had him trending down, and now gallup does. If you do not believe it is newsworthy, go comment in another thread.

What are you posting about? You should know by now if you know enough to post to me that I generally do not read the crap from Boberfett. If you want to say something don't quote him.

Both polling firms have had him trending down since his inauguration day, the same way nearly every president throughout history has trended down (at least since we've been polling).

It's not particularly newsworthy.

We'll see how far the trend carries, Mr. Lifer.

Are you kidding me? He signed one of the most bogus pork filled bills in history that wasn't even read. He's gone on an apology tour. He's trying to slam socialized medicine through congress. He's selected a racist supreme court nominee. Basically he's fucking up our country faster than any president in history.

He hasn't done anything. You have to be kidding.

I'm not sure if I should drink a beer or eat a pistol.

Being that you are usually quite vocal when it comes to things of this nature, some people were curious why you haven't posted anything in this thread: The Obama administration said Tuesday it could continue to imprison non-U.S. citizens indefinitely even if they have been acquitted of terrorism charges by a U.S. military commission
