Even my dog Shadow knows when the President’s poll numbers have hit the crapper.
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Thursday shows that 30% of the nation’s voters now Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Thirty-eight percent (38%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of –8. The President’s Approval Index rating has fallen six points since release of a disappointing jobs report last week (see trends).
Thirty-nine percent (39%) now give the President good or excellent marks for handling the economy while 43% say he is doing a poor job. Those are by far his lowest ratings yet on the economy.
The Obamessiah has hit Planet Earth.

It’s going to be harder and harder for the New York Times and CBS to find Obama supporters to over-sample in their polls. Before too long, they’ll have to limit their sampling pool to MSNBC employees.

I also like the picture of O staring at some woman’s backside at the G8. Guess he lusts too.
And Michelle’s $6,000 purse?????

Keep up the pressure on the Dems! Remind gays how the Congressional Dems who have been in power since 2006, and Obama have betrayed them. They were a large part of his win.
Remind Independents their liberties are dwindling. Remind them of Obama’s unkept promises. Remind them how he is sending the deficit into new territory. Remind them more than 1.4 million jobs have been lost in the 8 months of his watch. Remind them how he has overreached in so many ways (firing CEOs,stacking boards of directors with his people,forcing Bank of America to take on Merril Lynch, etc.) Remind them of the corruption in his administration, including appointees not paying income taxes. Remind them how he has denigrated America in other countries.

I blame Bush for the drop.

Well, if that nasty Bush hadn’t given up power voluntarily and let Obama take office on Jan 20, Obama’s numbers wouldn’t be dropping. There ya go. The traditional, peaceful transition was a Rovian plot!

(P.S. I’m only half-joking. 3 years from now, when the 20% inflation rates have hit and Americans are ready to storm the White House with pitchforks, leftist bloggers will be saying “The Republicans threw the 2008 election! They WANTED to lose, to leave us holding the bag!” Maybe sooner. You heard it here first.)

“I blame Bush for the drop”
Draybee, upon what evidence do you blame Bush for the drop? And which drop? The drop in Obama’s polls? hehe. Drop of employment by 1.4 million SINCE Obama took over? The drop of DEM support for our legitimate and constitutional rights?
Please explain why you blame Bush for these drops.

Knowing who their friends are, the White House threw the Press Corps a private, off-the-record, 4th of July Barbecue.
Comment by V the K — July 9, 2009 @ 9:37 pm - July 9, 2009
Oh, and instructed reporters not to mention the barbecue.

Not sure, but I think Draybe was being sarcastic.

Speaking of which, while I was away on holiday and away from computers, wasn’t there something about the WaPo accepting a gift or something from the WH?
Comment by ThatGayConservative — July 10, 2009 @ 2:01 am - July 10, 2009
TGC, the WaPo was setting up “salons” where… for $25,000 … you could hobnob ‘casually’ with WaPo reporters and Administration officials… off-the-record. Before the country was taken over by the Chicago Democrat Machine, this sort of thing was called influence peddling.

Thank you, TGC. I was indeed being sarcastic.
