So pleased to be able to report a new low for the year. Theories so far: seasonal with a long winter; rising gas prices; Guiliani's broadside ( extraordinarily well-timed, if a coincidence, to Obama's reversal of fortune); gridlock over the Faunding of Homeland Security; Netanyahu? Something else? He gone from %)% approve/ 45% disapprove to the current numbers over the past two weeks. That's a trend, not a glitch.

Make that 50% approve-45% disapprove 2 weeks ago.

That the approval number is this high reinforces my concern that the American population has lost touch with Common Sense.

I think his softening numbers might be the reason why Dem Senators are moving toward welcoming Netanyahu rather than participating in the White House orchestrated boycott.

42% of America just hasn’t figured out that King Barry is ISIS Commander-In-Chief. The media sure as hell WON’T tell them, either.

I honestly think that Obama’s speeches alone, as painfully demonstrated in his ISIS speech where he at the very least implied that Christians who believe marriage is between a man and a woman are equivalent to ISIS, are eventually gonna be enough to bring it down below 30 % by the end of his second term.

His really offensive statements don’t get picked up here. The comments about the Crusades were pretty much unreported by MSM because they knew they would hurt him. The British press was the only place that I read the racially divisive taunt he threw at Rand Paul to “come in to South Chicago and shout that the Republican party is the party of opportunity.”

Approval ratings plummeting — yet cowardly Republicans refuse to confront him, because of his skin color and chosen “race.”

Find it very hard to believe that as many as 42% approve.

VERY hard to believe.

We can hope that Guiliani sticking his neck out will help a bit. Certainly, Obama’s disapproval numbers started going up that day, whether coincidence or cause. Some Republicans didn’t run from those comments, like Walker and even Tom Ridge, if I recall a report of his TV appearance that weekend correctly.

Guliani’s comments ... I thought when they were made that, despite the predictable media indignation, they would ring true to many in the public.

They tracked the Hispanic approval through the winter going up dramatically after Obama announced the amnesty last November. The MSM frames the issues to favor the Democrats and then people feel entitled to things. The ruling by the Texas judge may have shown the Hispanics that Obama is all hat and no cattle. I’d like to see whether his declining approval over the two weeks since the smack down is among Hispanics.

Word got out that King Barry tipped ISIS off about when the Iraqi attack on Mosul would start.. I’ll betcha THAT cost him a few approval points. The Iraqi attack on Mosul has been delayed and perhaps now might not even happen at all.. King Barry’s stunt helps ISIS keep control of Mosul.

Not hard to fathom. Remember, 97% of blacks voted for Obama, twice.

Throw in the feminists, abortion child sacrificers, homosexuals, and militant atheists, and you have a quorum.

Did Stalin care about the polls? Did Hitler? Did Pol Pot?

Well that is the beauty of independent forums and blogs - once you know how to use them properly. We can garner attention for these issues when nobody higher up will.
