[SoFloFreeper]

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Wednesday shows that 38% of the nation's voters now Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Twenty-nine percent (29%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of +9 (see trends). Republicans and Democrats are tied on the Generic Congressional Ballot.

Not to ask a stupid question, but, HOW IS THIS HAPPENING??? Is this for real?

[counterpunch]

So 38% of Americans are fascists?

[GoCards]

I agree, its incredible.

[Free America52]

In my wildest dreams, I cannot imagine anyone who thinks Obama is doing a good job.

[joejm65]

This poll bounces up and down like an EKG. Best to just ignore it.

[Zeddicus]

We can (and probably should) choose to ignore polls like this, but I think it’s pretty clear that half the country seriously has no objection to being ruled by a fascist oligarchy, so long as that oligarchy continues to throw them their scraps.

We’re screwed.

[Huskrrrr]

Must be those 650,000 new jobs he promised (after accelerating the spending of course).

bounce from the above-the-fold coverage of “pay as you go”

Those who voted for him are easily fooled (again).

Obama's summer jobs plan: work for 600,000 people

By Mark Silva reporting from washington
7:15 AM PDT, June 8, 2009

In a meeting today with the Cabinet, the president will announce plans to tap into the $787-billion stimulus to create jobs, with 10 major projects to be implemented in the next three months.

President Obama today promised to deliver more than 600,000 new jobs this summer with accelerated spending of some of the $787-billion economic stimulus that Congress approved at his urging earlier this year.

Is this for real?

No, it is not for real, it is a Lie, the Big Lie!

[GOPsterinMA]

I hope so...

[GOPsterinMA]

Your points are sound...but for the sake of the nation I hope you’re wrong.

I agree the numbers are weird. why would he go up so much when Gallup daily tracking poll has Obama at his worst numbers to date (see above link)

[Texas Fossil]

600,000 jobs will be a drop in the bucket.

Look at this interactive map:

I hear the Whistle of the coming TrainWreck in the NE, East, Great Lakes cities and in Southern CA. in 6-9 months when the unemployment benefits are exhausted.

The epicenter of this is right in the heart of the Obamanista country.

There is no way the government can “create” enough government jobs to offset this.

At best it will be a long trudge through the mud out of this.

[GOPsterinMA]

With your info, these polls are the equivalent to rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic then. Or will the pricks still continue to blane GWB for everything?

[Red Steel]

bounce from the above-the-fold coverage of “pay as you go”

Laughable.

[Texas Fossil]

Government creates nothing. Anything they promise to “give” you must be taken from someone else.

The more government, regulation, and taxation that a nation has the less the productive sector of the country has available to use.

This is a failed approach to recovering from a disaster. It will only create a larger disaster.

This is a Zero sum game, without the creativity of a market system.

Those are some wild swings in the approval index. Another poll on Rasmussen has Voters Now Trust Republicans More than Democrats on Economic Issues

[italianquaker]

Whenever the socialist leaves the country his polls go up. I guess they like listening to him from afar
