Obama’s Foreign Policy Approval Rating Drops After Mideast Turmoil
(CNSNews.com) – The first opinion poll to be conducted after last week’s deadly attack on a U.S. consulate in Libya and a spate of anti-American protests across the Muslim world has recorded a five-point drop in approval for President Obama’s handling of foreign policy.

The NBC/Wall Street Journal poll released Tuesday found the president’s foreign policy approval among registered voters at 49 percent, down from 54 percent one month earlier.

“The fall was steeper among independents, going from 53 percent in August to 41 percent,” NBC reported.

I would bet it is still pretty strong in Deerborn, MI and among Muslim terrorists. Obama has been the best thing to happen to Islamic terrorism since Carter created the Islamic state in Iran.

I couldn't find anything on the Gallup or Rasmussen sites about foreign policy polls. They way you phrased this post implies that the figures you've listed for those polls is related to foreign policy when they are not. They merely indicate the latest preference polls.

On the CNS News site, I did find the quote you referenced, but also found something you did not note:

"...The poll did not directly seek respondents’ views on Republican candidate Mitt Romney’s foreign policy competency. The question that came closest asked whether Obama or Romney would make a better commander-in-chief; respondents favored Obama by 45-38 percent..."

Here's the actual poll, including the questions asked:

Please note that while the figures you quote for his foreign policy approval are accurate, also note that his poll numbers on the subjects of his handling of the economy, the job he is doing as President (50% approval for the first time since May, 2011) and whether or not the nation is on the right track have been steadily rising.

Since most American's really don't pay much attention to foreign policy, that sudden drop of 5 percentage points after the riots in Libya and Egypt may very well be a temporary blip brought on by our suddenly having to think about it. Moreover, his approval rating in that area has been consistently at or near 50% since April of 2009. Future polling will reveal whether or not this is a long term problem for the President.

Is that picture of Romney walking away after he gave the homeless Veteran a $100 of HIS OWN money supposed to be anti-Romney?

Last month in the NBC/WSJ poll, Obama's net approval on foreign policy was a commanding +14 points. 54% of registered voters approved of his handling of foreign affairs while only 40% disapproved. Democrats were even starting to cite this advantage as a powerful argument for his reelection. But, the turmoil in the Middle East and the storming of American embassies--and murder of American diplomats--has almost wiped out Obama's advantage.

In the latest NBC/WSJ poll, Obama's net approval rating on foreign policy plunged from +14 to just +3. His approval rating dropped from 54% to 49%. His disapproval rating spiked from 40% to 46%.



Keep in mind this latest poll is D+7 (D+5 if independent leaners are included). Also, the ratings are among registered voters, which has a built-in Democrat bias.
