If poor poll results for a politician you dislike are the "Best news all day", your life must very seriously suck.

Think about where you are and how your life compares under the Obama economy/misery index. Obama is the one making people's lives suck. He is solely responsible for holding back our country and economy.

Any news of his failures and low approval is indeed great news for our Nation. It means we can stop this path he's headed on. If you can't see that you don't care about this country. Or deep down you hate it like Obama.

Yes, as our learned friend Nick mentioned, Reagan. His poll numbers went significantly further south, significantly faster.

By the same Gallup poll, his approval was 35% in January of 1983. Let me guess though, you wouldn't attribute that to people 'seeing him for what he really was'.

You are one giant condescending elitist **** if I ever saw one. You really do think you are better than others. You are what you hate.

Who knew? President Obama was responsible for the economy tanking before he even won the election!

I am more impressed that spidey is admitting that people aren't responsible for their own actions. Its Obama's fault. Yep, yep, yep.

Quick question for everyone. Do we believe that spidey is a real person, and thereby deserving of pity/medication, or just a really committed troll?

The way I see it there are only two options, that he's trolling us or that he's genuinely mentally ill because there's no way a rational adult with all their mental faculties can view the world in this much of a paranoid delusional way.

When did I say I hated elites? I am condescending to people like you and spidey though, because you hold strong opinions about topics that you don't understand, and you both aren't terribly bright.

Come to think of it, why WOULDN'T I speak down to you? (considering your behavior)

Better overall. Thanks to Bush and Republican policies I was in a miserable job that I couldn't escape. While things haven't rebounded perfectly, Obama's policies blunted the what could have been a much worse economic collapse (I'll even give some credit to Bush that TARP was indeed actually needed). In the last couple years my industry has picked up pace again and grown and I'm now in a new job that I'm happy in.

You don't react well to people proving you wrong, you know that?

A quick look behind the scenes at the lib koolaid disbursement center:

"Quick, everyone divert! divert! divert! Contact our media friends and have them downplay this, come up with some story about something Bush did. "

Nice! Where's the disbursement center anyway? Free drinks!

So, now that they've had all day to come up with one of these stories, I'm sure they're all over the media. Can you point us to a couple?

Can you imagine what his polls would look like if the media relentlessly hammered him like they did GWB? The number is low now, imagine if the media didn't adore him and the nobel committee didn't nominate him based on things he might do in the future etc etc.

Unfortunately, I don't think it will translate into defeat in the 2012 election, but still good to see the people waking up.

I think a kindergardner could speak better than GWB and a second grader would be smarter. There is a reason he was made fun of by COMEDIANS not hte fucking media.

It exists in the corrupted paranoid neocon mind.

umm, uhh, umm, uhh....uhhhhhhhhhhhm, says the stutterer in chief.

Right. Cuz pausing to think about what you are about to say to the entire free world is the same as blurting out any retarded thing on the top of your mind.

What diversion? You pointed out gallup's latest poll. No one disputed the numbers. Several responded that it's still pretty darn good both historically and considering we've had 2 years of the worst economy in decades. You attributed the decline to people "waking up from the liberal biased media", I think bad-economy-fatigue is a better explanation.

Anything else you want to talk about that hasn't been addressed?

When people are personally negatively affected there is nothing you can do to make a positive spin.

Gas prices have sunk Obama

Him letting it get more out of hand than even Bush has sealed his fate.

You really predicted the last election on the nose, so I'm sure you're right about this one too.

Ok I'll ask. Wtf does Obama have to do with the price of gas exactly?

You're kidding, right? He's limiting supply.

That's why blaming bush for gas prices was such a stupid move by the left. Now we can blame it on Obama with impunity.

I really do hope you are just being facetious with the supply comment. I say that because many people seem to actually believe that crap. Hard to tell who the truly stupid are when it comes to global commodities.
