I can't wait to stop hearing their shrill and obnoxious cries.

Now you can be crazy with hate and see some sort of imaginary downward trend the last eight months.....or you can be normal and see that it's basically a flat line.

The crazy will see what they want to see.

Very true as this graph shows.

http://pollkatz.homestead.com/files/...1_image001.gif

Clinton, Reagan, Nixon, and Bush all trended downward from the start of their terms.

Bush did have a temporary exception to this as people initially rallied around him during the start of the Iraq war.

The queen bee likes to point out Obama falling from 70% at the start of his term....LOL

But doesn't like to talk about the fact he's had a flat 50% approval rating for over eight Months.

There is 670+ Billion in new taxes signed by Obama that start next year and is over for the next 10 years
At the same time more people should be employed. It'll be a tradeoff. And it's dangerous to cut taxes in time of war, don't you support our troops? Cutting taxes in waer is why we're in this mess to begin with!

No that isnt all they have people wanted real change when they elected Obama. They didnt get that. They got more of the same. It should be improving we are paying for it with taxpayers money just wait till we get to start to try and pay for it


I will wait to see official reports not a poll done on calling 1,000 people

Also it should with the census

The O Dog is working just fine with me. My taxes won't increase substantially this year, and we have a real leader with intelligence in the WH. And the census workers would qualify and being underemployed. Did you read the article? Underemployment is decreasing. Gallup is long trusted as the most accurate pollster group. If you don't trust them, you don't trust anyone.

That was from over a month ago. It's 51-42 now and that's with the economy just starting to get better. But in your own words

Hilarious!! An "index" from Gallup is virtually meaningless, but we all realize how desperate the obama sycophants are for good news.

Ummmmm....you do realize these are polls...don't you?

I realize how hatred of Obama has consumed your waking hours.

Pity...

Hopefully more people will be back to work. That isnt going to change that working people will have less money in their pocket next year when they work to pay credit ends the Bush child credit is cut in half and expires. Then they get to help paying the 670+ bill

As far as the healthcare part I'm not getting into that anymore then the links I posted for you.

I didnt love Bush But wait isnt Obama going around saying hes gave out the largest tax cuts in history and arent we still paying for the war. So you are complaining about Bush doing something while ignoring that Obama said hes done it more then Bush. So shouldnt you be complaining about Obama doing it instead of Bush ( tax cuts) More like credits

LOl yeah you're going to be the only person in america that is going to keep the work to pay credit and you are exempt from helping pay his 670+ Billion in new taxes starting next year lol

You are sitting here bragging about a gallup poll that isnt an official statement of our unemployment lol
