Did you even read, or did you just go straight into defense mode?
By the way, Obama is @ 35% approval rating among all voters and 57% with just the Democrats polling.
Well, I'm not in defensive mode or anything. I don't really care who's president. All of this talk about health care and/or unemployment benefits have absolutely nothing to do with me. I've never been on unemployment. Even when I wasn't employed, it never felt right to go on unemployment, so I never did. I have the best healthcare money can buy. The reason I work 60 hours a week is because I do the work of 2 people. So, none of these politics have anything to do with me.
It's just that seeing people voting against their interest is like watching a train wreck.
Anyway, chances are we'll have a republican congress and probably a republican presidency in a couple years. Again, I don't care because it doesn't affect me at all.
I don't know, but would like to point out Bush's numbers were in the 30s in this time of his term.
So is Obama's!
"Just 38 percent of voters approve of the way the president is handling his job, while 54 disapprove -- a new low for the survey. While 71 percent of Democrats approve of the president, just 5 percent of Republicans and 28 percent of independents do too.
"Three in five survey respondents said the country is worse off than it was five years ago;
Lol, yes because we all know how much the rightwing cares about our childrens future
Ah a very poor attempt at a cheap shot.
If I am NOT mistaken MORE repubs Home School ans send their kids to PRIVATE schools because ewe DON'T CARE about our kids future.
It seems to be with the large military cuts coming, and the lowest deficit growth since Clinton, this Democratic administration is making steps in the right direction.
When you raise the deficit as HIGH as he has done, it is not HARD to reduce it a little.
The CBO says the the deficit will drop a little this year and then RETURN to going HIGHER EACH YEAR for the foreseeable future.

Care to comment on the four other key economic indicators that indicate dramatic improvement or are you just going to hang your hat on labor participation rate?

Dramatic improvement? Hardly.
Oh, look... more downward revisions...

Q4 GDP growth was revised down to 2.4% at an annualized pace from the BEA's initial 3.2% estimate published a month ago. Personal consumption growth was revised down to 2.6% from 3.3%. Market economists were looking for smaller downward revisions to 2.5% and 2.9%, respectively.
Everyone knows the numbers released by the Obama Admin are a joke. Downward revision after the fact is SOP. Well, maybe everyone knows except for the duped Dem voters.
