OMG! Obama's approval rating drops to what it was for the last 3 years!

[rgbecker]

May never recover because he was able to get poor people health insurance!

May Have to resign and turn presidency over to the Media!

Moving average numbers show he is getting back to the lows of 2010, 2011 and 2012!

Although his approval numbers are better than G. W. Bush's, standard is higher because he's black. Media feels need to point out

Santa and Jesus were white guys. Falling approval numbers shows the truth that black guys just can't hack it in the complexity that is

the world today.

Media has trouble hiding glee at this news coming right at Xmas time!


Here's Pew's take, by the numbers...which actually have improved in December vs. November for Obama.

1. Like my dad said....

"The cable networks should just play the yule log if all they are going to do is criticize the President!"

2. The cable and satellite services are a complete rip off for what they offer. The average person

pays 100 dollars a month.

For what?

90% of the so-called news channels are just right wing talking points, another good percentage are home shopping garbage, religious, or infomercials.

So maybe at most you might find 5 to 10 channels that have content you mostly watch. Is that work 100 dollars a month?

3. It was 41 in Pew the last 3 years?

?

9. I don't know, but here's Gallup.

Seems pretty much in the 40's since the teaparty rebellion of March 2009.

4. Actually, his numbers are bad...

Not sure how this matters now, but that doesn't change this fact.

Come 2014 and 2016 the public is going to judge our performance based upon what we accomplished and what we tried to accomplish. The answer to the former is that we have accomplished very little. The economy is not better, it's stabilized at some hellish austerity level. And this seems perfectly fine with the leadership of our party.

5. Of course republicans have nothing to do with it

[Demo_Chris]

7. They have a great deal to do with it, but so what, that's politics...

We didn't elect these guys to sit around crying that life isn't fair, nor did we elect them to offer excuses while voting for GOP proposals, we elected them to fight for traditional Democratic policies and positions -- something they have thus far refused to do.

[B Calm]

6. He still had the majority of votes in the last election. . .

[Dawson Leery]

8. The latest Pew poll has Obama at 45 approve/49 disapprove.

Ras is at 47/51.

10. In fact his numbers are so bad I doubt he will run for reelection!
