So you are admitting that those supporting Obama are idiots? How refreshing.
Blind support is stupid. How do you think Republicans won? How many years of complaining about ACA and immigration with no viable legislation to show for it? Yet people are still falling for the rhetoric.....
In case you hadn't noticed, Bush is not in office, Obama is. The low and sinking marks are his, no matter how you claim that they are not. In addition, did you happen to notice and read your reference post? See where it says "first term"? How is that relative to a second term for either of them?
For further information to attempt your bias, call 1 800 WAA WAAA. They always back Obama.
Bush isn't office but his policies are still affecting the America, just like how Obama will affect America with his policies after he leaves. So far modern republicanism hasn't really produced any ideas or policies that have strengthen this country in sometime; which is a pity because we need two strong parties, not an impotent one and an incompetent one.
At this point in his presidency, Dec, 2006, Bush was at 35 percent approval. Obama's current RCP average approval is 42.6%. But again this is only due to his skill in exploiting identity politics. According to the Washington Post poll (from October) Obama is only at 30% among whites, but is at 84% among blacks.
Such conjecture.
I guess you don't think the opinions of black Americans should count as much as the opinions of non-black Americans.

Actually people are wise enough to understand no legislation is better than Democrat approved legislation.
Wait until they have a few months of an all Republican Congress wasting time on useless hearings and endless attempts to defund, repeal or otherwise chip away at the ACA, and doing nothing constructive or of value whatsoever. You know, the typical GOP M.O. When they have no one to hide behind any longer for their complete, inept uselessness, I predict the president's approval numbers will be higher still.
Wait until the effects of the ACA hit after the first of the year, turn the IRS upside down, delay refunds and confuse half the population since the Congress comfortably in Obama's hands "had to pass it in order to understand it."

Right-wingers spewed the same rhetoric last year. What we got was an insured rate not seen since at least the late 90s, premiums that increased at the lowest rate in ages, and healthcare for citizens with pre-existing conditions. The few predominantly red States that expanded Medicaid saw their rate of uninsured drop by as much as 40%.
You're going to be waiting for that "Obamacare disaster" for a long time.
