That is how you feel. I have actually benefited a little but under Obama, although he could do better in other things. I never benefited under Bush. I feel like Bush is the worst president I have ever lived through.

Why does it gotta sting? it is the same 44% that voted for McSame, meaning they Loved Bush and wanted more. Also means that 56% still know we are better off moving forward with new ideas and some real action on the issues verses another 4 years of doing Nothing. Now that has gotta sting the far right since this means they have made zero gains with the people of America, that what happens when your Party does nothing except whining about the other guy.

RealClearPolitics - Election Other - President Obama Job Approval

If you don't know what kinda organization the Public Policy Polling entity is check out some of their other polls...

Public Policy Polling
I guess that's what the far left calls "fair and balanced" polling...

I ended up with more financial aid for school because of Obama. That much I can give him. Bush did absolutely nothing for me. The economy got really bad under Bush. I don't blame the bad economy on Obama. The bad economy is just something he inherited.

It's a good thing that 56% of us are still sane.

Yes, so who do you think is paying for your financial aid? Everyone else who is hurting financially and out of a job, I am sure they are all very happy for you....multiply your attitude times millions of people, can you see how there just wont ever be enough to go around? ask not what your country can do for you, rather what you can do for your country!!
