Wonkette
Two whole weeks into the new presidency, Americans have yet to fall out of love with Handsome Barry. Sixty-four percent of respondents to a Gallup/USA Today survey said they thought he was doing an OK job! That’s a high approval rating, but recall that back in early January, before he had to actually start “doing things,” he was at 84 percent. Why can’t Barack Obama learn from his mistakes, admit he was wrong, and go back to just being a very popular President-elect? [Political Ticker]
Why can’t Barack Obama learn from his mistakes, admit he was wrong, and go back to just being a very popular President-elect?
Because if he did Doofus and Palpatine would still be in charge. I’d say ots worth it.
What a loser. His whole presidency has been a dismal failure.
At least, those are the talking points my republican frenemies have been throwing at me this morning.
At this rate, he’ll be less popular than Bush by May.
Honeymoons start to fade the moment a new president puts his hand on the Bible, and Obama is no exception,” adds Holland.
How quickly we forget that Obama actually swore his oath of office with his hand on the Koran, The Anarchist Cookbook and The New Joy of Gay Sex stacked up on top of each other.
I woke up this morning and absolutely none of my flax had been spun into gold overnight. How long can these broken promises go on?
yA WEll I fUCking hate the guy.
Yeah I still like Barry, but that Joe Biden character is starting to get on my nerves.
The last guy had some popularity for a while. Barry should take a clue how he did it. I don’t remember exactly how 43 managed it, but I think it had something to do with a plane ride.
Don’t let us down President Barry. Even Dubya had an approval rating of 119% at one point… and he wasn’t the sharpest tool in the shed.
You know who else’s popularity took a huge dive just like this? And all she had to do was totally ignore and embarrass her state and its residents for a few months? Also.
This is by way of saying Alaskans are apparently un-displease-able. Also.
Oh I wouldn’t WORRY about HUSSEIN NOOBAMA’S APPROVAL ratings. As soon as THEY drop TOO MUCH I have a feeling SOMETHING will HAPPEN. And that SOMETHING might just be AN INSIDE JOB!!!!!111!!!1
Whoa…the president is black? What the fuck?
I can tell you this: my own personal survey of me has concluded that I have a 100% seething hatred of disapproval for whiney ass contrarians on lefty blogs who seem to have concluded 13 days ago that the Obama administration is a complete failure and that he has completely disclosed himself as a dangerous corporate lackey because he failed to put every Wall Street jackass in jail and nationalize health care on the very first day on the job.
If they’d go back to wearing suits and ties in the Oval Office, his popularity would be restored. Or maybe a nice cabretta jacket from Forever Leather.
Gorillionaire: You are speaking of the Paultarded segments of liberal society? I know a bus over in Bay View we can throw them under, if you are interested.
He can always start a war.
perhaps he’ll play the puppy card soon…
I don’t like him as much because he hasn’t been walking around in his bathing suit, which I support, and because he invited gross republislobs who didn’t even vote for him over for a Super Bowl party with Tostitos and salsa cheese dip and beers, I bet, and I was not invited and, in fact, only heard about it today from Wonkette. So that’s why his approval rating is slipping.
SayItWithWookies:And he hasn’t made Bell’s Palsy go away. But just when I’m ready to denounce Hopey as a fraud, wonkette produces a picture like the one above and I start seeing unicorns leaping over rainbows all over again.
Gorillionaire: “100% seething hatred of disapproval for whiney ass contrarians on lefty blog”
I agree with you. Liberals are the most self-loathing people on the planet. The only way Democrats ever win an election is when a typically power-hungry Repug goes for the kill-the-opposition- button and gets so carried away with their own power that they self-destruct, ala Nixon and Bush.
Democrats have no kill-the-opposition button. We have a suicide vial we drink on the off-chance we might be in charge.
I keep thinking that Obama is the smartest guy in the room and the boringly self-righteous libtards should just shut the fuck up for once.
DustBowlBlues: Have you tried touching the hem of his garment?
Maybe only 39%? See, 25 percent were still supporting Bush at the end of his term, so there may be a similar 25% (minimum) of people who are just so glad that the asshole is gone, they will support Barry no matter what. I’m sure this will all be explained away somehow. The press just can’t report that Barry is more popular than Bush without “balancing” the story.
DustBowlBlues: Obama rocking the mic?
I don’t have a job yet, the streets are still a mess, and the ice caps are still melting and polar bears have nowhere to go. At this point, all I can say is tha this first two weeks in office are nothing but a huge FAIL.
DustBowlBlues: I have a friend who worked her ass off for Obama. She’s very charismatic, and I’m sure she got him a lot of votes. She ate, slept, and peed Obama. And yeah, she’s a major libtard. So, now, literally just weeks into his administration, she says to me that she’s worried he’s going to “let her down.” WHUT? Is that secret libtard code for marijuana is still illegal or that global warming isn’t instantly fixed? HUH?
I would like to encourage Congress to increase funding for fighting global poverty. The Borgen Project (www.borgenproject.org) has some great facts and ideas to help global poverty.
$30 billion to eliminate global poverty.
$522 billion on the U.S. defense budget.
There are 800 million people that go to sleep hungry every day, 300 million are children.
cougar_gal06: Dude, buzzkill!
You seem to be under the mistaken impression we’re here to solve problems. We’re not, we are here to make fun of other peoples problems thereby making our own problems seem less worthy of wrist-slitting.
Bring the snark or go home!
cougar_gal06: so you were a cougar in 06. what the hell are you now?
