Obama's Approval Numbers Plummet!!

Filed under: Barack Obama

wenn-obama99.jpg

President Barack Obama is looking at his lowest approval rating ever!

His ratings have fallen drastically, according to new polls, with 29% of the nation's voters still standing firm on strongly approving the performance of Obama, while 37% that strongly disapprove.

Only 78% of Democrats still stand behind Obama's diplomacy, with the women offering more approval than men!

"Overall, 47% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the President's performance. That’s the lowest level of total approval yet recorded."

Not good, Barack. Better start making good on all those promises you made in your campaign!

      Wow. Just wow. Did you actually read what I wrote? I have plenty of pride and respect for the United States. It's a part of who I am. My father was American and my mother was Canadian. What I don't tolerate is people who attack other people instead of their arguments. You didn't like what BeautifulBrunnette69 had to say so you call her a bitch and make fun of her appearance? To me, that's just pure ignorance and it shows you have nothing better to add to the conversation except hateful insults. And you're right, I am excited to move to Canada. It's where my mother is buried and two of my three brothers, their wives and their children currently reside. I'm excited to reconnect with my family and raise my children. Is that a crime? I will apologize for calling you a douche because I realize now the only reason you attack others is because you have no confidence in yourself and you hide it by being a school-yard bully.

      Re: sweet_jillybean – thats right- i didnt like what obesebrunette had to say- i just knew there was no way to argue against her airtight response of "Oh go cheer for the underage whore Miley Cyrus!" i have no confidence either, which is why im willing to go up against three or more canadians shouting at me (not to say that it takes confidence to go up against canadians - just a basic grasp of 1st grade vocabulary). keep telling yourself that, loser. thats what the abused kid tells themselves to resist the urge to cut themselves. pathetic!! im sorry, but that girl is fucking GROSS. she clearly is morbidly obese, has a nose the size of quebec, and to top it all off has some of the grossest hair ive ever seen in my life- it looks like she fished out some of lionel richie's jeri curl from his shower drain in the mid-eighties and plopped it on top of her overweight, ugly head. i cant help but point out such disgusting ugliness when i see it, especially when the ugly whore calls herself beautiful in her screen name (ultimate sign of ugliness/insecurity), and singlehandedly insults our nation as well as myself. seriously, if you canadians cant cut it on our site, WHY DO YOU COME HERE IN THE FIRST PLACE???

      Re: sweet_jillybean – i accept your apology, but it REALLY gets on my nerves when canadians try to act like they are better then americans, when, to be honest, canada is like the most worthless nation in the history of the world. . . at least thats how i and everyone i know feels about it!!
      anyway, have fun in canada, i guess (if thats possible)!!

      If everyone wasn't so busy screaming "Change"..they would of actually spent that time into doing research on who they were voting for and his proposed policies, and how a lot of them were/are not feasible.
      For example: Of course we only want to tax the people/companies that make millions/billions..and have money fall from the sky. But the reality is…those people make up such a small percentage of the economy…so guess who's next in line to get money from for the other billions we need to run this country?
      (cue Katt Williams impression) "Don't worry I'll wait ……" :)
      But seriously folks, why don't you use the time you spend negatively commenting on peoples post simply b/c you don't agree, why don't you do your own research and come to an educated decision/conclusion/opinion? It's never too late…
      As opposed to the famous "F*ck you" "B*tch" etc. lines, not that those aren't valued opinions but…
      And fyi. Before you get all huffy about my comment- I'm moderate and didn't vote Rep or Dem. I'm not anti-Obama, but I do think he just told America what they wanted to hear, without explaining HOW he was going to make things happen.



    6. 206

      Fuck Obama and his arrogance. People that voted for him should open their eyes and realize that we are headed to disaster! He wants to control everything, the car industry, health care and the internet now. Can you say dictator!!!!



    7. 207

      Americans are so so stupid! He became president in the worst world economic crisis of our lifetime not to mention the fact that your country was already in shatters due to the stupidity of your former president. Yet you people give up on him after a year? Are you really so naive?? He's fixing your nation not your dishwasher people! And due to YOUR past mistakes it is obviously going to take a while



    8. 208

      What took everybody so long to figure this one out?



    9. 209

      What can you expect when this administration has turned out to be one of he most politically corrupt and morally bankrupt governments in several generations! AND, it's not even into the first year yet! With Pelosi and Harry Reid making a mockery of theri offices the world is getting a close up on how corrupt the Dumbocrats are!

      I'm a Canadian, so I've been watching Barack's work from a distance.

      Honestly, I think sure he's a great guy and definitely was the better pick for President. I was a huge fan of his until he started making all these bullshit comments about gay/lesbian marriage. Before he won his campaign, he seemed so tolerant..even seemed to accept gay marriage, so he had that vote. Now he's dead against it.

      As a leader of any country, you should be open to ALL of your people. I'm sure Canada's Prime Minister Stephen Harper doesn't completely support gay marriage, but still..it's legal here.

      Barack Obama is a HUGE disappointment.



    11. 211

      I LOVE HIM!!!!!

      Re: k8ebaby – - so did you actually read the bill or are those just the talking points you have heard? In the bill there will be NO public option. That is a lie they are feeding you. It will start out that you can keep your insurance BUT after a certain amount of time you will HAVE to switch to the Government plan.

      He says 47 million people don't have insurance. Well 8 to 12 million of those people are illegal, and the rest are people that just don't want it.
      There are 300+ million people in the country, WHY, do we have to screw up are health care system for 47 million. They can walk into any hospital and get care because it is ILLEGAL not to treat them.

      It is about Government control (and money) and nothing else. If you are dependent on the govt, then they have the control. Come on, they have taken over the financial system, the auto industry and then health care. WAKE UP people!!

      Re: Mama-Jenna – - little FYI, Rasmussen was right on during the presidential campaign. They were the poll that got closest to the percentage Obama won by. BUT it was probably ok then because it was in your favor but now that you do like the outcome it is because it is a Republican poll and they aren't reliable..gotta love liberals



    14. 214

      you have GOT to be kidding me.
      This is not a big deal, whatsoever.
      the approval rating only goes down from election.
      THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME. Stop making a huge deal about it, give him his time to do his job.

      He took on a huge mess of a country after Bush, he's got four damn years, and he needs to take us out of a huge economical slump and try to get on good terms with a world that hates our guts. Yet he still has to deal with so many other problems shoved down his throat; people this day and age are so impatient, they need the problem THEY believe is the most important to be thought of as most important by everyone else.

      Re: black__eyed_fat_loser – K watch this, are you watching? I'm slowly walking away from this.. IT'S CALLED HAVING CLASS.. YOU'RE ARE THE TRASHIEST AMERICAN I KNOW.. I'D BE EMBARRASSED TO BE AMERICAN IF IT WAS REPRESENTED BY YOURSELF.. PUT A PIC UP OF YOURSELF THEN.. TRUST ME, I GUARANTEE YOU, YOU'RE NOT THAT LIGHT.. LOL CANADA IS MUCH BETTER THAN AMERICA, IT'S A PROVEN FACT.. SO AS A CLASSY CANADIAN, I'M DONE ARGUING WITH YOU.. PEACE OUT BITCH.. :)



    16. 216

      Geez, look at the mess he walked into. It is going to take alot of time to fix.



    17. 217

      Obama has alot to deal with, give him a break.

      Show me where I said Canadians are better than Americans. I never said that! Maybe you should go back and actually READ and COMPREHEND what I wrote before you respond. I have equal respect for both countries. How many times do I have to say that before it gets through to you!? To answer your question, I come to this website to have fun. It gets boring at work sometimes, so when I have a moment and I'm not busy, I come to this site. Is that a problem for you? And by the way, just because you and your friends think something is true, it doesn't make it so. Have you ever been to Canada? Have you ever actually spoken to a Canadian person face to face? How dare you call Canada a worthless nation. My mother was Canadian, and she was a far better person than you will ever be. It pisses me off that my mother gets killed by a drunk driver at the age of 59 while pieces of shit like you get to keep breathing. Don't bother responding to this comment because I won't respond back. You can harass me all you want on this website, you won't get a rise out of me. Your opinion of me isn't worth shit. I take my apology back. You really are a douche.

Why does he HAVE to HAVE a TELE-PROMPTER for EVERY SPEECH he gives?? He on the ONE and ONLY President of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA to do this!!! IDIOT! THEN, when it goes hay-wire….he cant function!! Let's see if this gets posted…THEN I'll put what else I want to say!!! FUCK FACE PEREZ!!!

      all of these idiots defending obama:
      he has severly hurt our economy which was the one thing we needed him for. he went ahead and cashed out creditors and big companies, the same companies whose head guys refused to not take a private jet back to washington when asked. he approved cash for clunkers which failed miserably. the stimulus package has done nothing for america and look at our employment numbers. NOTHING obama promising has come true, including employment. you wanted change and you got it. change for the worse. economically look at what palin did for alaska and look at biden's experience. the only reason obama was elected was because we wanted to be able to say we elected a black and young president. we did it and now we are suffering. you say it takes years to see a change. well, obama has four years, his first one has all ready sucked, do you really suppose the next three are going to get any better? they're going to get worse, because he has all ready proven his inexperience. even look at that piece of shit credit card bill he helped pass. did you read the fine print on it? i don't think so. it let credit card companies inflate the rates before it went into effect. so, basically, yeah they fucked you over, here's another go at it, basically nullifying its effects and making it even harder for people to get out of debt. and those are just his economic failures.

      You want one Canadians account of health care ? It benefits the poor, now my family is by no means wealthy, we arrived here broke as shit and made something of ourselves. Be prepared for queues…holy shit, try going to a busy hospital under social medicine, its fucked up. I went in for a possible emergency liver lesion and had to wait 15 fucking hours before I was cleared and I wasn't in some comfy bed, I sat with the bleeders and drug addicts in the lobby where they put me. In Alberta, theres legislation being proposed to let people opt out of the socialized medicine model and be allowed to pay for their own health care so that if you want to see a doctor and have surgery a day later, you can do that. I will admit that the whole "you can't pick your doc + long times to see drs" is bullshit, you can see a doctor pretty much any fucking time you want its just that more specialized treatment like surgery you will have to wait but then again don't you have to wait for transplants and lists in the US too ? Consider the issue before agreeing/disagreeing with it, I'm curious to see the model presented because honestly your system is shit too, I've been to american hospitals and they were no better or worse than our own. At least ours get 100% funding.
