The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Tuesday shows that 25% of the nation’s voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as president.

Forty-two percent (42%) Strongly Disapprove, giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -17. That matches the lowest rating earned by the president since the passage of his health care proposal two months ago (see trends).

Overall, 45% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the president’s performance. Fifty-three percent (53%) disapprove. Eighty percent (80%) of Democrats still offer their approval. Eighty-four percent (84%) of Republicans and 62% of unaffiliated voters disapprove. The Rasmussen Reports Media Meter shows that media coverage of the President has been 53% positive over the past week.

Obama knows how much many Americans loathe big oil and thanks to the Deepwater Horizon incident he’s scoring a few points.

Yeah, wait until his NHS, rationing loving choice for Medicare and Medicaid hits the news.

LOL

That should do wonders for his “numbers.”

Zogby also has indicated that Congressional approval, while still very low, has also started to inch back up.

Remember, all the Democrats have to do is hold on to the majority. We have the much larger hurdle to get over.

So when does a liberal Arab poster lie?

How in the world could he IMPROVE?

It's easy to make light of Obama's "approval", but these numbers reveal a serious problem.

Twenty-five percent of those polled - one in four - "strongly approve" of the job he's doing.

This means that, of the 226 million US residents over the age of 18, over fifty million are either FOR, or content to witness, the destruction of the Republic and/or its replacement with a Marxist government.

Now, 25% in an electoral contest is no big whoop.

But 50 million domestic enemies? Once the sh*t hits the fan and we are no longer discussing a popularity contest, but are rather engaged in a struggle for survival, 50 million is a VERY big number.

During the Bush years, we saw that even passive disloyal resistance can block the effectiveness of an elected government.

If we ever succeed via the electoral route, the seditious minority will not submit peacefully.

One way or another, we are going to have to deal with them.

I despise the fact that there is a disaster in the Gulf of Mexico and our F’n government does nothing and says that it’s BP’s responsibility. BP sits there going duuuuhhhh and nothing is being done. I’m tired of saying this....but if Obama was republican, there would be hell to pay in the media. One month of leaking and nothing. 2-1/2 years of this moron to go. Alot of damage can occur to this country in that time.
