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

Status
Not open for further replies.
2 1/2 years later and Obama along with his supporters continue to blame Bush. When does this become the Obama economic results since obviously these aren't his

Obama economic results in 2011, .4% GDP and 1% GDP growth in 2011, 25+ million unemployed or under employed Americans in 2011, 4 trillion added to the debt in less than 3 years, and a downgrade of the U.S. credit rating. Rising Misery index 7.83 to 12.67. First President in U.S. History to have our credit downgraded on his watch! 38-41% JAR and well over 50% disapproval ratings.

Why don't you ever post the starting point?
 
You gotta wonder where liberals here learned to use that particular word?

I believe liberals have a lot of experience during the Bush years using that word or do you have a selective memory?
 
Why don't you ever post the starting point?

I have posted the starting point, the last Day of Bush/the first day of Obama which of course you ignore.

Are there more unemployed today than when Obama took office?
Is the labor force today less than when Obama took office?
Did Obama inherite a AAA credit rating?
Has over 4 trillion been added to the debt?

What starting point do you want me to use?
 
I don't apologize to liberals who call me a liar instead of being mistaken or making a mistake. You use the word lie a lot but ignore your distortions and lack of context. I don't see a lot of character in anything you post
You do what many other conservatives do, you pass along crap that obviously is true and claim it is.

Since when is using a classroom as a backdrop to reveal an educational program, a PR stunt?

Yeah, like a staged area .. maybe not a "stunt" per se but like theater... instead of creating a backdrop they just went to the school and used a real one.

If they were genuine mistakes, I would respect them as that. Nobody could make as many "mistakes" as you claim to make. That is because they are not innocent mistakes but intentional lies. For example, you know Obama is not responsible for every dime added to the debt since January 20th, 2009; yet that doesn't stop you from attributing all $4 trillion added since then to him.

These are not innocent mistakes. They're deliberate lies by a pathological rightwing sycophant who suffers from ODS.


I don't see a lot of character in anything you post
Transference projection doesn't help your image. Just so ya know.

Been there done that, less employed today than when Obama took office. Obviously you don't have a clue as to what obama has done nor do you care. You have BDS and believe that is going to re-elect Obama. This country cannot afford 4 more years of Obama
 
Gee, Imagine that, Slate Magazine, notice the liberal spin and ignoring exactly what JFK did. Did he target tax cuts? Did all taxpayers get tax cuts? What did that do to economic growth and govt. revenue? Keep spinning and showing your liberalism which obviously demands a much bigger nanny state to take care of you and your inability to compete

Well imagine that, attacking the messenger instead of the message! As the article states, like Obama, JFK wanted to stimulate the economy, but, like Obama, he did not think that he could get a spending package past the Republicans in Congress. So, like Obama, he did the next best thing, which was to cut taxes.

I asked you to read the article and as pointed out the Slate Magazine spin ignores the facts surrounding JFK and what he did. Obama gave targeted tax cuts that didn't work or he wouldn't have a 38% JAR today. I have posted the Obama tax cuts before. How are they benefiting you today? If you are working today you are still getting the Bush tax cuts thus the benefits. Since you believe the govt. needs the revenue are you sending that tax cut to the govt. monthly?
 
I am learning from the best bull****ters in this forum, a fact to a liberal is whatever they want it to be including distorted out of context data
<sigh>

Don't you ever take responsibility for your bull****? When is it your fault you lie with unabashed disregard?
 
How about here?

Since you want to start here how about posting your chart showing employment today under Obama?

We lost 8 million jobs during Bush's Great Recession. How long did you think it would take to recover those jobs?

Seems that Obama stimulus program designed to keep unemployment at 8% would have done the job if it was successful. Instead we have fewer employed today than when he took office and more people dropping out of the labor force. Guess it was Bush's fault that 1.1 million people are out of the labor force in July 2011. Are you ever going to address the Obama results?

Are there more employed today than when Obama took office? When was the stimulus program passed for shovel ready jobs?

If the tax cuts hadn't helped then Obama's approval rating would be even lower. Don't forget that he has never proposed eliminating the majority of the Bush tax cuts. He only favors eliminating the top tax cuts. He signed a huge payroll tax cut that, of course, is still benefitting me and everyone who received it, insofar as I have more money in my pocket than I would otherwise have. He is probably going to propse a continuation of the payroll tax cut, which Republicans will probably oppose.

Cutting payroll taxes cuts what? Think about it or do you ever think? Why would you propose cutting payroll taxes?

Without the stimulus unemployment would have topped 12%, so it was successful. Obviously the projection of the intensity of the recession was less so.

I'd say it's self evident what it cuts. :lol:

Why would you cut payroll taxes? Again, it's pretty obvious; it puts money in more people's pockets than an income tax cut.

Unemployment today is 16.1% so mission accomplished

And takes money out of SS and Medicare which is supposed to be for retirement

No it isn't -- you don't get to change the metric every time it's convenient for your failed argument.
