Good news for President Obama.

My well wishes and respect to our president.
He was elected President, he doesn't need my approval or polls to govern.
He needs to get on about the business of governing.
Health Care wasn't my priority, it was his, if he wants it he needs to go kick Harry Reid and Joe Loserman in the Butt and get it done so we can move on to the next thing.
If we are getting out of Iraq DO IT. Last man out turn off the lights.
I'm as sick of his procrastination as I am or the Whiners on the Right who want to tear America Down so they can be right.

Perhaps I am just impatient but I wish he would finish something

Rasmussen has him at 46% and falling more or less daily.

Gallup has him at 49%

The only ones that are above 50% are pretty old.

And 97% in this one...

November 25, 2009: Seventy-four percent (74%) of African-Americans Strongly Approve along with just 19% of white voters. The President earns approval from 97% of African-American voters and disapproval from 61% of white voters.

The problem is that if he gets "on about governing," he will spend the US economy (whatever is left of it) away. He is just spending money we don't have, and more is to come.

Well, isn't that a lovely way to refer to the President of the United States of America?
