Breaking down the numbers by political party shows how sharply split American voters are over the president's job performance. While 85 percent of Democrats approve of their party leader, 80 percent of Republicans and 51 percent of independents disapprove.

The president's average approval rating for his term so far is 56 percent.

How could that sell-out whore Newt Gingrich get 58%? That list is a rehash of the establishment GOP losers that got us where we are now. Screw them all. Find some real conservatives.

Gee - 46% favorable for The One, and 47% favorable for Sarah Palin. I can see the headlines in the UK now - “How can 47% of American voters be so STUPID?”

Get on board, FRiends, the Conservative train is out of the station and is gathering speed.

you forget that nearly 100% of blacks vote for democrats, since blacks make up nearly 13% of the population, they amount to 26% of democratic voters.

SO... that means that 25% of democrats will support the zero regardless, because of their matching skin color. the remaining support will come from communists happy with what he is doing.

Could be 60 percent again next November and with the GOP’s luck probably will be.

Still, nice to see other polls bearing out the trends.

Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot and MAO as well.

Still, Obozo WILL go down as the worst POTUS ever!
And I DO expect some bloodshed by the American people on the streets before his presidency is over.

I expect tanks in DC to remove him from the White House after he tries to change term limits.

The approval numbers are shockingly high IMHO. Of course, Bill Clinton always maintained the 43 percent approval.

Fox uses liberal pollsters.

This is significant.

46% of Americans are simply too ignorant to vote with anything approaching an informed decision, too stupid to think critically about anything they are told, and too parasitic to make a living off their own efforts.

These people are called "Democrats" and "Obama Supporters".

They need to be allowed to naturally cull themselves into extinction.

Starting now. No more welfare, no more government unions, no more government jobs period.

Failing to do so is treating the cancer of invasive government with a combination of injected PCBs and voodoo, and we already have a metastasizing tumor that is 46% of our body weight.


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.
