Obama's Approval Rating Drops to Lowest Ever, According to Gallup

Well that certainly is true for black Republicans who want to run for Congress, where there certainly is a lack of jobs.

Out of the 535 elected Congressmen/women, there are only 2 black Republicans. That's 2 out of the 289 Republicans in Congress; or roughly 2/3rds of one percent. Roughly 50% less than the 1.2% you would expect to find given that blacks make up 12.3% of the population and 10% of them vote Republican.

On the flip side, you would expect to find 11.1% of black Democrats in Congress given that blacks make up 12.3% of the population and 90% of them vote Democrat. There are 40 blacks out of the 246 Democrats in Congress; or 16.3%. That's roughly 50% more than you would expect to find represented in Congress.

Republicans elect 50% fewer blacks than their population represents
Democrats elect 50% more blacks than their population represents

But you think Republicans treat blacks more fairly than Democrats do??

Yep, you're a Conservative alright.

You leave out on minor detail, the majority of blacks in this country are liberal. Lets remember that over 90% of them voted for Obama. So now tell Me why a liberal would gain the conservative vote in the first place ??
 
Obama's Approval Rating Drops to Lowest Ever, According to Gallup

This is what happens when you elect an inexperienced incompetent liberal elite into a position of authority in a private sector economy.
ummm, that's what you get, is it? You realize even at 39%, that's still double Bush's lowest jar. What did you do to get that?
 
You either report someone or be quiet, don't threaten!!!!

Unlike you I have never done it before and will always give someone a warning first and then will let them know I did it. You never did that

Telling someone you are reporting them is one thing, but warning (threatening) them is quite another. My instincts are that the latter is frowned upon by the powers that be. ;)
 
You have an odd perspective of “Fail”. You made the following false statement and I pointed it out:
you do realize that up until a few months ago, California has had Republican Governors for decades.
In response to me pointing out your error, you admit to your error and still manage to get your facts wrong:

Sorry....but California has had Republican Governors for decades...with the exception of about 2 years of Davis, who was more of a Republican than most republicans are...so Sorry...but it is you who's knowledge fails you.
”Gray” Davis was governor of California for nearly 5 years rather than 2 and was anything but conservative.

I could make a case for Schwarzenegger being a liberal RINO but it’s rather foolish to argue such issues when it is blatantly obvious to anyone who looks it up that you were wrong and rather than admit it, you tell me I am still wrong. How pathetic can a fail get?

I am going to give you a warning, stop the personal attacks and baiting or I will for the first time in this forum start reporting your posts. I am done with this bs from you so I suggest you either stick to the thread topic, move on, or get reported. I don't want to do it as I have never done it before but guess there always has to be a first time for everything.
Where's the attack? It was the truth. You falsely accused me of lying when I said Bush had a Republican Congress for most of his presidency, which as I proved to you, is a 100% accurate statement. When I asked if you would apologize for making a false accusation against me, you said, "There will be no apology" and "Man up for a change, half is not most for the other half wasn't total GOP Control," even though Republicans controlled Congress for more than half of Bush's 8 years in office, just as I stated.

If you don't like what I said, you can always stop casting false accusations against others. Then I'll have nothing to say about it.

Baiting, off topic, and trolling. As far as I am concerned you are history.

No, he doesn't Just last night he lied about something I said and even after I showed him he was flat 100% wrong and his allegation that I lied was also 100% wrong, he flat out said he would not man up and apologize.
He's a Conservative.

I dunno, how did I leave that one minor detail out? ;)

They wouldn't.

What does that have to do with blacks in Congress, elected by Americans, being 50% under represented by Republicans while 50% over represented by Democrats.

If you think my figures are wrong, show me; maybe I goofed somewhere. Otherwise, seems to me like blacks are pretty smart for voting Democrat as they get more representation that way.
 
Since you have never posted your campaign literature I can only react off your posts which would indicate that you are a Democrat in a state that has suffered under Democrat control as evidenced by the state unemployment rate and in particular the disaster known as Detroit. Unemployed Americans rely on Democrat programs for their unemployment benefits and other aid. Prove to me that you don't support programs that keep people dependent? 2 years of unemployment benefits help whom? Liberal social spending benefits those that implement the program more than they support those that receive the so called benefits. Personal responsibility doesn't exist in your world

Lots of words to say you really know nothing.

Allow me to educate you on the basic rules of civilized debate : when you make an allegation, it is incumbent upon the maker - in this case YOU - to prove it. It is NOT incumbent on the person that you are slandering to prove their purity.

Nice try with the baiting and trolling but try again - and this time with actual facts.

All stuff you do as well. But hey, if you don't like having done to you what you do to others, then go ahead, sign your "divorce agreement*" and stop posting to me. This will make the third time you venture into that territory :roll:

* = :lamo :lamo :lamo

How about this for an actual fact

Obama's Approval Rating Drops to Lowest Ever, According to Gallup
 
Latest Obama poll numbers from Gallup on various issues showing that the American people are waking up to the incompetent in the WH. His resume is coming to roost, no leadership skills, no executive experience, and total lack of understanding of the private sector economy

New Low of 26% Approve of Obama on the Economy

Really? I hadn't heard that. :lol:

What are the numbers on the public's confidence in the Republican opposition?
 
LOL, Minimum wage jobs? Again the arrogant elite liberals. A job is a job is a job. TX has them and California doesn't. You totally ignored the post and the response. Some people never get it and you appear to be in that group. Think the Medical profession is minimum wage jobs? Think the influx of Fortune 500 companies ot TX creates minimum wage jobs? I prefer people working on any job including minimum wage jobs instead of sitting on their asses collecting taxpayer funded unemployment for two years.

Amazing isn't it, that the people of TX continue to elect Conservatives with such a miserable economic record that you claim?

Con....Texas has the highest percentage of minimum wage jobs in the country. Sorry.....what we are seeing in Texas is the "China-ization" of the US. Hand out tons of corporate welfare in exchange for low paying jobs. The wealthy get more wealthy, the middle class shrinks and the working class gets poorer and poorer.
You guys want to turn the US into another third world nation....one in which there is no middle class. Sorry....but that isn't the model that is going to maintain the American dream.
 
LOL, yep, a true mirage here in TX that has fooled all the taxpayers of the state that voted in more Republicans in Nov. 2010. Thanks for telling me what is going on in the state that I live in.

Well....considering that you have no clue what is going on in the COUNTRY that you live in.....I think its a fair assumption that you probably don't understand much more about the state that you live in. Just sayin.....
 
We have minimum wage jobs because of liberal social engineering that requires a business to pay minimum wage instead of letting the market decide what pay workers deserve. I never paid minimum wage and that is because the market would never let me do it. Minimum wage can also be called maximum wage required thanks to liberalism

Yes, Con....we know. If you guys get your way.....you will pay chinese wages to the workers so that the corporation can pad their pockets even more. Dang...that....minimum wage.....keeps you from paying $1.35 an hour.

You are right, it is much better to have a gap on your resume and sit on your ass for two years collecting unemployment than actually getting out and doing work regardless of the wage. You have spent too much time on the Matterhorn

Exactly I love having someone in California telling me what is going on in TX. Too bad you don't put that expertise to work solving the problems in your own state. While you are doing that keep sending those Fortune 500 companies to us from California. We appreciate the additional taxpayers.

Next time maybe you can actually respond to the information in my posts instead of passing along DNC talking points.

Browsing through this, I see much hasnt changed. Anytime Obama makes a mistake people rush to his side and point out that Bush made mistakes. Stop failing to see what he is doing. Stop making excuses for his actions.

Until Bush became president, we had 4% unemployment with a mininum wage and with taxes higher than they are now. Why do you try to make it sound like we can't have both low unemployment and reasonable incomes?

I'm willing to wager with any Conservative here that if Obama loses the election next year, Conservatives will not be able to refrain from blaming Obama for the mess the Republican winner inherits and they will not cease blaming him until the economy turns around.

Any takers?

The funny thing is that when you point out that Bush and Republicans oversaw the economy prior to the financial meltdown, their automatic response is to blame Clinton. Stop blaming Bush! It's really Clinton's fault! :lol:
