New Gallup Poll just out...Obama's approval rating now 65%.

Face it, you, the teabaggers, and all the rest of the Faux News watching Limbaugh listening wingnuts are in a losing position...lets hope it's permanent.

The poll said:
Associated Press-GfK poll shows that 48 percent of Americans believe the United States is headed in the right direction — compared with 44 percent who disagree. AP Poll: After Obama's 100 days, US on right track
What is interesting is that the poll also said:
Quote:
Nearly 80 percent believe that the rising federal debt will hurt future generations, and Obama is getting mixed reviews at best for his handling of the issue. AP Poll: After Obama's 100 days, US on right track
Hmmm????
People like the direction but don't care about the cost to their kids and grandkids?

Upton just included you in a group of people, and didn't say that you were part of anything. I am surprised to learn that the tea bag parties had to do with gay and lesbian issues...I thought it was taxes. Just out of curiosity,
where do you get your news?

Maybe the hard-core Obama bashers will finally realize that they are a fringe minority in American (actually, World) society.
Let's see what his approval rating is in 6 or 12 months.

With a disapproval rating of 26%, it seems it is a lot more than a "fringe minority."

As much as you and the minority party would like to see Obama's numbers sink like a rock, no sign that is going to happen....He's @ 65% approval and this is after those so called game changing, revolutionary tea party events....It must be lonely to be a GOP supporter nowadays....A party with no voice, no identity, no message & and no answers....
