No political blood was spilled as President Obama and House Republicans spent the better part of 90 minutes discussing the economy, the debt limit and job creation.

Nope, that is a CNN poll that fails to give the demographics of the poll but you can bet they polled heavy for dimwits. Rasmussen has him at 49 approval, which is still to high. Other polls have him at 44. The 54 is totally bogus.

Oddly, my first thought was that if one of us peasants that actually worked for and paid for that lawn walked on it, we would be arrested.

44% and the economy is getting worse, we are now in a third war, Obama vacations while the midwest gets pummeled by deadly tornadoes, food stamps at an all-time high, housing in the dumps, Obama wants to divide Jersusalem, and he still gets 44% approval??? What the **** does he have to do to get to where Bush was - kill baby kittens on YouTube???

Here is a link to Rasmussen’s poll for today. http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/obama_administration/daily_presidential_tracking_poll If you look at the questions closely, it says that 49% SOMEWHAT approve of Obama, while 50% disapprove. Only 25% STRONGLY APPROVE of the job he is doing; 36% STRONGLY DISAPPROVE. It’s who they ask; how they word the question; and how they report the results. Americans are smarter than the media want to give them credit for or report.

“Amen. The GOP holds the Ace in the hole on the debt ceiling vote. That meeting should have been less than 10 minutes long. Boehner and company should have laid down the agenda, no negotiating and walked away. Take it or leave it. Thats what the Dems do.”

We need to do some more house cleaning,it is evident weeper bonehead DOES not grasp the seriousness and responsibility of his job!

Anyone but Obama!
No more nitpicking against the candidates running against him. Don’t give the dems more ammunition....

We love them all and just hope the one who wins promises to put the others to work in their administration.
They all have a strong point that can help this nation. We need a UNITED Front in order to beat him.
The only issue is BEAT OBAMA.

ABO Say it loud and clear........

You have to remember that Bush’s ratings were from both Republicans and dimwits. Bozo only gets low marks from Republicans. He has a base of about 44% that, no matter what, will stick with him. Which is why it is extremely important we run a real conservative this time and that we don’t allow any of the idiots to split off and run as third party.

If Obama is re-elected, well - the thought depresses me very much. We better nominate someone who will be able to beat him!

The election is not until November, 2012. These polls mean nothing. None of them, Obama’s and anyone else. The “Obama” spin media is pulling your leg and....you are falling for it. Obama is a total failure and is backed by people and forces that want to destroy our country, including Obama and his wife Michelle. It behooves us to stick together and just keep banging away until we bring down the media and Obama with them. Stay strong. And.....don’t think for a moment that the media does not know Obama is cooked, no matter what they say!!! Darn it, folks, this economy is sinking with each passing day!!!! We are in deep trouble and.....Obama and the Democrat Party put us there!!!!

I just can’t stand the thought of Obama being re-elected. I have never hated a president before Obama.
