Bush Over Obama in Gallup Polling 57-51 (First Term Approval Ratings)

Gallup polling ^ | Aug 20, 2009

We were told the country was divided, the election stolen, that there were "two Americas" and a drunk frat boy barely able to speak had been selected by the US Supreme Court...yet on August 22 of 2001, President Bush's approval ratings were at 57% according to Gallup.

Today we are told the country is in a new era, the election a mandate for change, that there is one America full of hope and a brilliant orator has been elected by a huge turnout...yet by mid August 20 2009, President Obama's approval ratings are at only 51% according to Gallup.

Notice how they cut the top 20% off of the graph in order to make the lines look more level.

Good ol’ MSM doin’ it’s thang...morons. They couldn’t treat a fact straight if it hit ‘em square on the nose.

But always remember. A lot of the disapproval is from people angry that he has not been communist enough, or totalitarian enough. They wanted him to deal with classic America harshly. He has let them down. Everyone keep your guard up.

I agree. But it didn’t help Bush and the RINOs when Conservatives started peeling away from him, and it won’t help bammy and the dim bulbs when the commies starte peelin’ away from him.

I agree - remain vigilant. We’ve got a far way to slog still.

But the trend is our friend. Bammy’s got to deal with that rather than doin’ his Alinsky thang. And that’s a good thing.

not exactly true. His polls are still high amongst the far left and black population. They’ll stick with him through just about anything. They may grumble about transparency or not being left enough, but in a poll, they’ll support him through just about anything.
