It doesn't matter. He's in office for 3.5 more years.
He's not up for re-election.
They will do what it takes to make the party look good as we near 2016 elections.
He's gone in 2016 so it doesn't matter what people think of him.
It does matter. If he continues to have low poll numbers, then he'll be a lame duck president, and he won't be able to cause any more damage.
there is no doubt that the last two presidencies have revealed the very worst in government corruption, dishonesty and waste.
the difference is while his predessecor entered amid skepticsm after the 2000 election; this president entered with a great sense of hope from most of the electorate and has dissapointed.
It is mainly because the two party system is failing the republic.
It does matter. If he continues to have low poll numbers, then he'll be a lame duck president, and he won't be able to cause any more damage.
As long as his poll numbers continue to trend massively higher than those of Congress there will be nothing lame about this duck until November of 2016.
This weekend I came face to face with the reason 0bama was elected and continues to have decent approval numbers. I was talking with a rabid 0bama supporter. Keep in mind this is a woman who considers herself politically astute all around, and not just on things 0bama. During the course of a relatively light political conversation, I mentioned than Weiner is running for Mayor of NYC. She confessed to having heard the name 'Weiner', but was completely unaware of his escapades, his subsequent resignation, or the fact that Mrs. Weiner is Hillary's #1 aide. But she really likes Hillary and thinks she will be our next president. Oh, and she was unaware Hillary hit fallen and hit her noggin, knocking her off the stage for a short time.
Yes, friends, these are the people who voted for 0bama and still think he's the bees knees. They don't have a frickin' clue.

It is astounding that he still has a 45% approval rating. I really think that 8 point drop can be attributed to the media finally doing its job and actually reporting instead of cheerleading. Obama administration's biggest mistake was tapping those AP reporters.

white liberals who long ago sold their objectivity and patriotism down the river, which brings Obama's approval floor up to around 40%.
In other words, he's sinking about as low as possible.
The approval still comes from the 47% give or take a few percentage points.

The economy is growing at a snails pace. The liberal media will pump that up, anything to try and make Obama look good and promote to his swooners. Look at the Obama trip to Africa and the liberal media is calling it a great bank for our buck. Can our country really afford this trip. Wouldn't it have been better to go to a country like China?
Let me guess, the majority of the 45% are liberals, and the overwhelming majority of those are black.
You are so anxious to cheerlead for Obama and probably have a pair of pom poms. Yep, Obama is half black and just like the cd member said you will support him no matter what he does or doesn't do. I add, no matter what he claims to know or not know. While you struggle take a min to think about Obama and his family yukking it up in Africa to the tune of millions of dollars.
Maybe you should read the thread before making yourself look like a moron. Here, I will repost it for you.
