Can you imagine how low it would be if they only polled those with common sense?

Just curious if you felt the same way about Geo. W. Bush?

Frankly my thought is that being POTUS is not a popularity contest. It's about taking prudent and responsible action which often is not popular because many today seek nothing but a hand out.

Zero percent approval.

I really wish these pigs could be prosecuted under the same laws that prohibit "false advertising," when they intentionally spread that kind of abominable lie.
Wow..racism, outright lies of euthanasia, and false value judgments oh my. As long as there are people like this in the Republican party I'm staying independent, kick the haters out and we will all be better off.

I agree ... shoppers remorse is not all that uncommon among the American public. ..

BaracK Obama stood before the American people and lied through his teeth on almost every issue, not just one or two. It hasn't taken people long to figure out that this man is a puppet of Rahm Emanuel. John Conyers pretty much said so when he addressed the Press Club. He flat out stated that Obama was for a single payer system but changed his stance in the hope of getting re-elected. God forbid.

Today's leftist, elitist, condescending comment brought to you by jojajn.

This is exactly why his #'s are plummeting, because Obama is an elitist like yourself and he too thinks he's smarter and knows better then the masses.

What would Obama's approval rating be if all the welfare recipients were excluded from voting?

Probably 2%
