I expect another NY Times article about GW Bush’s National Guard service any day now. As the Kenyan’s approval ratings fall, the media will do everything it can to protect their ‘magic negro’. /LA Times

But I thought GWB was the worst despot the world has ever seen? Khan, Hitler, Pot, Stalin, ET AL were all better humans than W!

F U state run media whores!

Okay...we need the HA HA guy....

I wouldn’t read too much into this. If you go to USA Today’s web link and play around with the comparatives to other presidents you’ll notice some interesting things.

For one, he is on par with Ronald Reagan at this stage in his presidency. Another thing to note is that most all of them slip down as a trend.

[avacado]

GWB had up to 90% approval. The marxist-stuttering-clown will never see 90%!

[Fudd Fan]

I’ll bet his poll numbers are falling at a greater rate than GWB’s, too. In fact I’d bet the farm on it.

If he gets his programs in place, he won't care.

"People fundamentally like this president, and they believe he's smart and capable and strong and trying to do the right thing,” he said.”

Wrong on every count.
0bama is intellectually bankrupt, the weakest on foreign policy ever that this country has ever seen, and doing everything he can to destroy the America he has hated with a passion since he was a boy.

[wardaddy]

and still they kvetch....

Drudge has him trending worse than Carter.

Obama's approval rating is 55 percent six months into his presidency, a USA Today/Gallup poll found. But 56 percent of those polled approved of the job done by George W. Bush after six months, the daily reported.

Obama's poll numbers right now mean nothing good - Bush's numbers came in a much better economy. Considering the economic crisis we're currently in, the fact that Obama is able to maintain such numbers while pushing for disastrous energy and health care initiatives is a clear indication that the GOP has not made any real or convincing case against his policies. The real story is how ineffective and crippled the GOP seems right now - the only glimmer of hope I see for '12 is Palin.

Does anyone have the internals of this poll, How many democrats did Gallup poll vs Republicans?

I suspect Obama’s true approval ratings are actually a fair bit lower than what Gallup tells us, as noted by Rasmussen’s poll showing him down around 51% consistently.

“”People fundamentally like this president, and they believe he's smart and capable and strong and trying to do the right thing,” he said.”

The reality is that he is fairly ignorant. I don't mean stupid. I mean ignorant, like most college students before they've lived a bit in the world. Obama has never really lived in the world. I know of few people more closed minded and less worldly than academics, and I have spent my entire life in academia. Obama has the predictable naive and ignorant views of many academics, and the ironic arrogance that many academics have as well. This crowd is so small minded in general that you could list all of their beliefs in about three or four pages of standard text and predict pretty much what they all think before they voice their thoughts.

Looks like he either paid off the wrong people or didn’t pay the right people enough, hence the need for Stimulus II. One of those trillions is bound to hit its mark!

What? The magic isn't working?

Obama will lead us to enlightenment. People will actually start to think once again.
