WTF does Bush have to do with a thread about Obama's approval ratings? As you so clearly point out, Obama is the President, Bush is not. His ratings are completely irrelevant to Obama's. It is no secret that toward the end of his Presidency Bush's ratings were terrible. His 2001-2009 Approval rating average was 49%. The final report of his last month in office was 35% approve. Joey Votto currently has a .336 batting average. 67% of people suffer from an irrational fear of gnomes. 33% of women who wear sunglasses are only cute while the glasses are on. 97.2% of the time ChasC5 will make at least 1 moronic comment in a given PR&C thread (+-3%)

100% of these stats are as relevant to this topic as President Bush's approval rating.

It is sad and pathetic that the only defense you have of the idiot that you blindly follow is to point at other people. I would love for you to actually try to defend him on his own merits sometime, but we both know that would be asking way too much of you.

On the same note... the source is written on the bottom of the chart. If you want to see what other reports are out there I suggest typing it into the little bar near the top of your web browser. Even you should be able to figure that one out (I think).

WTF, did Bush sneak back into office as POTUS and I missed it?

But, WTF, here you go http://www.usatoday.com/news/washing...al-tracker.htm

It is only through 2010, but hang on - your idol BHO tracks LOWER than Bush at the same time in office :rofl:

In fact - BHO has been in negative territory since July 2008!!!!!

He is closely following LBJ in being hated the most at this time in office :rofl:

I completely agree.

However I also consider the mandate in the play book of the Left - (paraphrased) you must first destroy what is before you can rebuild it.

They are on track.

Exactly. What some people don't understand is this is not the dem party we grew up with.

It's been taken over by marxists/socialists. The old time dems are the new independents and Reagan dems who mainly vote pub or stay home.

Heck, I remember $0.19/gallon - but then I am older than dirt.

Gas prices stability have not been helped by BHO & the EPA, in fact the mandates (I.e., no Gulf Drilling Moratorium, cutting of Co2 for refineries, etc.) have contributed to the rise in prices.

Oh, there are those that will say it is really caused by the speculators, or (of course) the greedy oil companies. They would be wrong, provable wrong.

However, fuel prices have been all over the map for a simple, undeniable reason: failure for most in politics to actually understand there are (for the USA) resources that are being restricted from the 'free market play' since the early 1970's.

A great, well documented book on this is "Black Gold Stranglehold" (also available on Kindle).

I bet you now remember $4.35 a gallon.

I just drove past the station this morning (June 15th 2011) ... $3.75

Who do I blame for this reduction? :confused5:

There is no "silver bullet" reason to be corrected to fully fix the problem. However, there ARE reason's which the US can correct partially fix the issue.
The fact is, those corrections are not made for what ever reason.

Sp are they just pulling our strings on the Gas Prices? :confused5:

and expecting everyone to blame whoever is in the White House?

Then you do not know history.

You challenged me earlier in this thread to provide these types of poll results for Bush - which I did (and for the record he was way ahead of BHO at the same stage in his presidency).

The same link would allow you to take a look at presidents back to LBJ - take the opportunity and NOTE that no sitting president has won reelection when the approval, for the vast MAJORITY of their term is negative - as is BHO's.

I've also offered to cover any amount you desire to put up that BHO IS NOT reelected in Nov 2012 - and no one knows who will run against him. You have ignored that challenge - possibly even you know BHO is 'one and done' - he had better be or the next 'done' is the USA.

I'm not so sure that pubic barry is one and done. The Repubs seem to be really trying to toss a stiff in the mix. I kind of like PB's chances against Mittens. Like him or not, pubic barry is a serious campaigner, his devout followers are not swayed. I don't think his goose is quite cooked.

BHO is gone Nov 2012.

Logically the possibility does exist that the minions (dead gray matter between the ears, the 47% on some sort of welfare, the 40% of all US families that are on food stamps, etc.) could vote him in again.

However, some of that group will likely realize the gravy train of the Progressives has come to the end of the line.

When there are no people left to pay for the above then what they will ask. And it is coming. The US cannot continue to borrow, and if the Progressives ideals is all they need do is tax the rich to keep the Ponzi scheme going they failed basic math - taxing the rich at 100% will not pay three days worth of present spending.

Back to reality - Independents (like myself, although I did not and would not) carried BHO in 2008. Today (see other Rasmussen Reports) they have a 60+% NEGATIVE rating of BHO - these were part of the people that wanted 'Change' and got none from the administration. This percentage has remained basically the same since July 2009.

The Democrats and Republicans have basically an equal amount of 'die- hards' that can be counted on to vote for whomever the party provides. That percentage, combined, is less than 50% of ALL voters.

So, unless the Independents 'stay home' BHO is one and done. They will not do so as they are very much affected by the stupidity implemented by BHO, much of which has been of a nature that is 'against' this group. And they have learned the snake charmer is dangerous.

And the republican party is the same? It's now run by corporations attempting to bust unions and eliminate all regulations while riling the idiots of the religous right with stupid shit like gay marriage and abortion.

The reality is they don't care about the conservative social issues. Abortion will always be legal and gay marriage is a decade or two away from being the law of the land.

As soon as you hear a republican mention the word "abortion", you know he has sold out to the big money.

Close, but not quite... Libs somehow manage to convince themselves that their opinions ARE facts.

Not being able to to distinguish facts from editorials and opinions is in itself the fundamental problem with most Liberals. Well, that and no basic math skills.

It's not the exact same tactics, but, in the long run, I find them just as annoying.

The "Strongly Approve" line is the more telling one of the bunch. It isn't that the "Disapprove" line is going up, it is that the other one is going down. Time will tell, but it's hard to win an election with <25% of the people thinking you are doing a good job.

As unemployment trends seem to be continuing, I can't imagine that number actually going up anytime soon.

The left is unhappy about his wars. At the end of the day they will still vote for him. be cautious of polls, they don't always tell the whole story. But I know you know that.

The past 60 years of Progressive indoctrination in Public Schools.

The pussification of the US by adherence to PC.

The lack of mandatory military service.

Need I go on?

I have a question ... I was always curious where you guys get these Rasmussen Polls as it always seems only the right-wingers have them to post ... is it true you have to be a premier member on Rasmussen to obtain them ... that is, you have to pay to obtain them ?

You have to pay for the cross-tabs, i.e. all the actual data collected.


You can get the overall results for free with the articles they post.


You get what you pay for. The pollsters that give everything away for free are garbage. Usually I look at their actual data, and sample sizes are too small, samples are too skewed towards one political party, etc.


There's a reason Rasmussen has been so profitable: politicians are actually willing to pay him because his polls are accurate, even when the result is something they won't want to hear.

I look forward to very accurate predictions and polling AGAIN for the 2012 election....

Once again in 2010, Rasmussen Reports polling provided an accurate preview of Election Night outcomes....

In December 2009, a full 11 months before Election Day. A Democratic strategist concluded that if the Rasmussen Reports Generic Congressional Ballot data was accurate, Republicans would gain 62 seats in the House during the 2010 elections. Other polls at the time suggested the Democrats would retain a comfortable majority. The Republicans gained 63 seats in the 2010 elections....

In 2008, Obama won 53%-46% and our final poll showed Obama winning 52% to 46%. While we were pleased with the final result, Rasmussen Reports was especially pleased with the stability of our results. On every single day for the last six weeks of the campaign, our daily tracking showed Obama with a stable and solid lead attracting more than 50% of the vote....

In 2004 George W. Bush received 50.7% of the vote while John Kerry earned 48.3%. Rasmussen Reports polling projected that Bush would win 50.2% to 48.5%. We were the only firm to project both candidates' totals within half a percentage point....

Thanks and I have another question ... this last Poll posted by AC54ME shows Obama at -19 ... what exactly does this mean ?

As an example, when Bush left office he had about 19%-20% approval rating ... I'd be hard-pressed to believe that at this time Obama is twice as worse ...

I'd be curious to see what bhoners speech did for his rating, I suspect more than 2 points improvement.

It's an index Rasmussen is keeping track of - the GAP between strongly approve and strongly disapprove.

The important numbers, which you can get for free AND their complete daily history since day 1 of the Obama admin, are the straight Approve - Disapprove numbers.

They are here: Obama Approval Index History - Rasmussen Reports™


As of today, 44% Approve, 55% Disapprove

I was just curious ... I mean, that seaguy on the other forum has about 26,000 + posts on his Rasmussen thread thats been showing Obama as a long gone daddy in the U.S.A. for years now ... yet stands to come-in again in 2012 ...

So yes, I can see how you would see that debating you hosts difficulties ... good thing I'm as cool as Obama ...
