Lol averages. It's most as cute as the people who tried to average out unemployment under Bush.

His approval went up when people saw the pile of excrement that would be replacing him. It's no mystery why he climbed to 60% as he went out the door.

Another duflection thread by the OP. 2 things:

1. Obama is out of office.
2. Hillary didn't win

These seem to be things you forget on a regular basis given you constant whining about Obama and Hillary since the election.

Dubya got something like a 90% approval rating by virtue of doing little else other than by occupying the chair around 9/11.

Actually Bush did a decent job pulling the country together at that time. I give him credit for that. He f'd up by choosing to go to war in Iraq and taking his eye off of Afghanistan. But he was a decent leader in the time immediately after 9/11.

Well Richard Nixon is also out of office as is G.W. Bush, both rated higher by citizens than Obama did. It's a fact. Pretty interesting that an ass clown like Nixon beat out Obama.

Yeah and half the country is dumber than average* and has a double digit IQ. I couldn't give less of a shit what that half thinks because all they care about is hating liberals.

*median, but that simple concept would probably go over their heads.

Nixon ran against Obama ?
We've all been treated for the last months about how popular Obama is and how much everyone loved him. It seems we saw it almost every night leading up to this last election. Now that he's out of office I was rather surprised how much his average approval rating sucked ass. I mean the guy is a real loser, lower then Nixon, you know the guy that had to resign before his impeachment and who President Ford had to pardon. Obama can't even beat Nixon! Damn, that's got to sting a narcissistic asshole like Obama.

Why would his rating have ever been high, considering the hate the GOP/Tea Party had for him from day one.

Exactly.

Obama's rating is low in large part to how extremely partisan our political environment has become.

Ah a new Obama meme to replace the current "GDP growth post recession sucked".

Poor critics, so little to pick from.

Yes, because George W. Bush was NEVER subjected to a partisan political environment and neither was Richard M. Nixon. Those all happened only in the last 8 years and only by the Evil Republicans and Evil Tea Party conservatives. Everyone knows that Democrats and liberals are all sweetness and light .........right? Right?

I don't know about leftists (do we even have those in America?), but he won the effective contest, good enough for me.
