Poll: John Boehner's Favorability Rating Just Above Zimmerman's, Snowden's.. -*ugly pic alert!*
Only 18 percent of Americans have a positive opinion of Boehner, while 36 percent view him negatively, the poll found. Boehner's unfavorable ratings, which stood at 29 percent last December, jumped in the aftermath of January's fiscal cliff debate.
Boehner's rating, at a net -18, puts him far behind former President George W. Bush and ahead of only Snowden and Zimmerman -- the two least popular public figures tested. NSA leaker Snowden had an 11 percent favorable rating and a 35 percent unfavorable rating, while Zimmerman, who was acquitted in the death of Trayvon Martin, had a 14 percent favorable rating and a 39 percent unfavorable rating

bush does.
The public doesn't know VP Biden as much.. at least these 1000 people that the poll called.
Here's a pic just for you, josh..

Is the tv news reporting on the Bidens trip to India and now Singapore?
"VP Biden’s visit to India will focus on boosting trade, strengthening strategic partnership"

Was it restored? If so, I wouldn't be surprised to see the bad guys try to take it away from President Obama.
I just appreciated the irony.
Kinda like when darrell issa dug deep into his own pockets to make sure Gray Davis was recalled from the governorship here in CA. And he got the recall, alright. But then he also got bigfooted by the then-popular Ahnold, and he cried like a spoiled two-year-old about the awfulness of the missed opportunity and having to concede this one that he felt was "rightfully" his - 'cause after all, he bought and paid for the recall, assuming the way would be clear.
As much as I hated what happened, it was utterly sweet to savor his big fat pathetic crocodile tears. Almost worth it just to see Mr. Entitled Crybaby sniveling about another one that got away, to which he was, of course, entitled somehow.
Y'know... they called US "Sore Losermen"...
Takes one to know one, I guess. NEVER have I witnessed ongoing poor sportsmanship of the magnitude we see playing out every day in the republi-CON party, local, state, and national.
Regarding protection for Presidents, it made a short amount of news, and it's verified by Snopes:

Sociopaths only cry for themselves.
See you later, calimary.
Boehner and Zimmerman are beneficiaries of Just-Us. The Constitution and Bill of Rights still stand, no matter what John Boehner or John Roberts and all those in official capacity think, say or do.

He said the folks should pay for it but was worse than Romney, who was clueless after living a life of privilege.
IIRC, Boehner said if their parents hadn't worked hard enough to pay for their college education, they were born to be ditch diggers and ought to accept it.
I've tried to find kind words about these guys, but like the media gadflies, they are shameless sociopaths.
They won't change their attitude, as they are rewarded for it. They are the one-percent's darlings, to keep our mind off of flesh and blood people suffering around us.
so many People don't think much of this trio.
Certainly not heroes.. quite the opposite. Stand your Ground, my Democratic 
A sneaky stalking murderer of a teenage Black boy can claim "self-defense". Induces the blood to boil in those who seek Justice4Trayvon. 
Boner claims Congress should be judged on what they repeal.. turns out they can't even do that. He's a lying sociopath who answers only to the used teabag faction which is headed by this sneaky bunch because he is "scared" of what we will happen if he stands up for people or even himself over cruelty to the American People.

Re-Dubbed "GroundSmell" by a poster here on DU. This is just a sample of what PBO has been up against.
Now, we come to our 3rd member of this sneaky infamous trio.. Snowden, who broke the law when he hacked into the NSA database.. he knew he broke it because he fled to China..

And, ever since then he's been whining about how scared he is of what the bad ol Pres Obama is going to do to him while singing the praises of mother Russia.. that's another thing these three have in common besides being sneaky.. whining a lot.
GOTV 2014
WORK FOR IT! 
Indeed the theme song of the groundsmellers and all those who bow at the altar of koch teabaggers. And, no, they don't get to rename themselves Frederick Douglas(sic) Republicons.

The meeting notes also stated that an "active radical left is dedicated to destroy [sic] those who oppose them" with "vicious and unprecedented tactics. We are in a real war; most conservatives are not prepared to fight."http://maddowblog.msnbc.com/_news/2013/07/25/19681021-facing-a-groundswell
"The meeting notes also stated that an "active radical left is dedicated to destroy [sic] those who oppose them" with "vicious and unprecedented tactics."
That's us, she.. all of us who are actually fighting the gop instead of President Obama
So how "vicious and unprecedented" do you feel today, she? Oh, I'll give them "unprecedented".. that's what OFA is definitely going to be in 2014! And, they'll think it's "vicious"..
Frederick Douglass was really about.. not some name(misspelled) to prop up recons..

Bio~
Abolitionist leader Frederick Douglass was born into slavery in Talbot County, Maryland. He became one of the most famous intellectuals of his time, advising presidents and lecturing to thousands on a range of causes, including women’s rights and Irish home rule. Among Douglass’ writings are several autobiographies eloquently describing his experiences in slavery and his life after the Civil War.
snip
At the urging of William Lloyd Garrison, Douglass wrote and published his first autobiography, Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave, in 1845. The book was a bestseller in the United States and was translated into several European languages. Although the book garnered Douglass many fans, some critics expressed doubt that a former slave with no formal education could have produced such elegant prose. Douglass published three versions of his autobiography during his lifetime, revising and expanding on his work each time. My Bondage and My Freedom appeared in 1855. In 1881, Douglass published Life and Times of Frederick Douglass, which he revised in 1892.
snip
In addition to abolition, Douglass became an outspoken supporter of women’s rights. In 1848, he was the only African American to attend the first women's rights convention at Seneca Falls, New York.

Were they really going to use Douglass to:
Change minds in an outreach program to minorities by using Douglass?
Thanks Cha I stand with my sig. Read all about him when I found the quote.

awe-inspiring, and astounding. What does this say about a people and a society that 39% view the fatal shooting of a non-threatening unarmed teen by an armed adult vigilante-type neighborhood watch captain negatively? 
the point, of course
fridge, Spazito.. I'm getting hungry now but trying to wait so I won't be eating so early. 
I use my fridge as a huge photo album of my family and friends.. and PBO history, with those pocket magnet frames. It's delicious inside and out. 
insinuates that Comrade Snowie has a 56% approval rating, but AS USUAL, not a single link. Just to clarify, that number refers to the number of people who think the NSA has gone too far in it's domestic surveillance, not approval of our own dear Comrade. That was a sneaky bit of conflation, if you're not paying attention.
That's just like "Dennis Kucinich is hugely popular in Europe", only to find out 2-1/2 years later the poster was referring to an internet poll, and couldn't even provide a link to that. My suggestion? Huge grain of salt.
that's a switch. Interesting poll, thanks Cha!
