Has the Obama administration competently and effectively managed the government? A Fox News poll released Wednesday finds a majority of American voters says no -- including about a third of Democrats.

A 58-percent majority says the White House has not been competent at managing the federal government. Some 32 percent of Democrats join 67 percent of independents and 84 percent of Republicans in holding that view.

Only 58%?

This means there is still a boatload of lo-fo voters who still worship the driveler-in-chief.

This country has been dumbed down.

“That meams 42% are stoopid, ignorant and uninformed.”

Not necessarily. How many of thoses people do you think genuinely believe Obama Chooses to do the wrong/immoral thing?

Most of us free republic members seem to believe that he is incompetent because He has no history of excursive leadership, upon which to say he can do the job competently. I suspect of many of us still believe he can but chooses not to, and thus are members of that 42%.

It is difficult to tell whether a man is genuinely incompetent or willfully negligent.

No it doesnt, this is a case of simple set theory.

58% of american believe Obama is an incompetent executive. That leaves 42% that eyther beleive Obama chooses to do his job poorly(as many Free Republic members still believe) or that Obama does know how to do his job and just regulatory gets results that contradict even his own claims for “insert excuse here”.

The only reason I am obliged to believe Obama is incompetent is because:
1: Some of his failures have bit him in the ass despite the best effort of his adoring fans in the Press to cover them up.
2: Obama has never in his life demonstrated that he does have the capability to manage an organization as an chief executive competently. So we cannot in fairness say with all certainly that he is deliberately screwing up his job.

“It also means that 10% of people know he is incompetent and voted for him anyway.”

Also not necessarily true, as we have no way of knowing that this was their opinion before voting for him. Althou based upon what we know it should have been.

10% answered “no opinion”

15% answered “Stop buggin’ me, I'm tryin’ to play a video game!”

5% were running late to their American Communist/Global Warming Alarmist/Pro Gun Control meetings....

12% answered “banana”

Obama has never had the best interests of this country in mind, in fact just the opposite. I would have thought at least 75% of the people would have realized this by now.

Sad that 42% think Obama is OK. Does not say much positive about America’s voters. The corrupt education system has done a great job in dumbing down our citizens.

I often listen to Brian Kilmeade's radio show when I'm working in the morning. He does a pretty good show for that time of day. Only last week did he finally admit that it looks like Obama is not incompetent, but actually bent on destruction.

Some people - including some right-leaning people - can't accept that Americans have twice elected a president that hates the United States and is intent on ruination. They are either terrified to allow themselves to realize what that means, or simply deny that any president could possibly feel that way.

Sadly they are waking up about two years too late.
