ROFLMAO ..... "Congress" is not a national office position ! I'll bet there is not one Congressperson who currently polls below 40% in their own district !

So why is Obama dropping like a rock ? :)

This is pathetic.

This does not bode well for Congress in the next election, that is my point.

Because until recently he hasn't stood up to conservatives in both parties. When he begins standing up for progressive ideals, his approval ratings will go up again. He doesn't have to climb much to get above the approval ratings of the GOP.

Are you ever going to answer my question?

What happens when that money runs out? Are you prepared to pick up the costs after that money runs out and so then why not now?

Yet 20% of the country admits to being a liberal meaning 80% are either moderate or conservative. You are out of touch with reality.
 
"Amid deafening cheers and bolstered by energy reminiscent of a campaign rally, President Barack Obama took the stage at the West Wilkes High School shortly after 5 p.m. Monday to talk about the economy and to push the American Jobs Act."

"With the crowd roaring it approval, Obama, launching into the reason for his visit, said, "I also thought it would be good to hear from all of you, because it seems as if your voices aren't being heard in Washington right now."

"Perkins said he thought it took courage for Obama to bring his message to a vastly Republican area such as Wilkes County.

It is an indefensible position to take and contrary to the very principles upon which this country was founded and upon which our economy was built. Liberal countries all over the world have failed and yet this one has prospered for over 236 years. Now a growing group of liberals are trying their best to destroy it. I am really surprised that someone your age could be so brainwashed.

There you go with your opinions again. Since I'm sure you are not voting Republican why would I consider your opinion of the 'field of candidates' to be 'unjaded'?

If results don't matter to the voting public then they deserve what they get with four more years of this empty suit. I live in TX and he won't be a problem for me. I just hate to see a lot of good people suffer because of the ignorance of far too many.

American's support liberal values, the fact that many consider themselves conservative doesn't make them stupid. What values do conservatives support that Americans in general support?

You need to better explain your position and why you support the Obama results. His JAR today is at 39%

Obama economic results in 2011, .4% GDP and 1.3% GDP growth in 2011, 25+ million unemployed or under employed Americans in 2011, 2.6 million fewer jobs, 4.2 trillion added to the debt in less than 3 years, and a downgrade of the U.S. credit rating.

A low approval doesn't mean a whole lot if it's higher than the approval rating of his opponent. Just ask your boy, W.

And what Obama inherited: economy shedding 700,000+ jobs per month, GDP shrinking at 6+% per year, financial institutions teetering on the edge of collapse, trillion+ deficit.... Nice improvement.

Try these: Life, liberty, pursuit of happiness, anti-abortion, pro-family, protecting the Second Amendment right, a strong national defense, protecting US economic interests against foreign threats, opposing illegal immigration, limiting welfare spending but rather creating economic opportunities for America’s needy, implementing high tariffs on countries that do not uphold human rights.

Concur?

GW Bush never had an approval rating that low in his first term and we don't know who is going to be Obama's opponent but whoever it is will be running against the Obama record and I will be there to continue to post it so that you see it. Apparently high debt, high unemployment, massive growth in the Federal Govt. is what you support.

The Obama record speaks for itself as does your support for that record.
