I think a lot of people did, and a lot of people jaws dropped when he did the stupid bill to bailout those companies even though his bailout was much different in principal than Obamas.

So what does that make Obama's actions? If Bush is "stupid", then is Obama the "fungus that develops on stupids toes"?

Comments?

Let's see, it was 50-43, now its 49-46 - more than one point, considering the disapproval.

No happy dance today?

Yes.

You do realize that one can be against Obama's policies and not be a Bush fan, don't you?

Oh, wait... I forgot who I was talking to for a second there... Never mind - you can get back to your blind partisanship and extremist mentality now. Sorry to disturb your ignorant bliss.

Nice try there, but Gallup has never had him at 44% approval. Now, CBS, which this thread is about HAS him at 44%.

You are mixing up polls in your desperation.

Btw, seen the new Fox Poll?

I don't think Obama gives a hoot about the polls. Obama beats to his own bounce, don't u know.

Obama's Approval Rating Hits New Low - Political Hotsheet - CBS News


Look at this;



I'd say his snake-oil tour of "selling" the HC bill is not going so well.
That 44% number is still way too high!
Some stupid people must still be asleep. WTF!
