Everybody Following Politics In Mid-July Hates Nobama
Are you closely following "election news" even though the midterm elections are four months away, and also it is the middle of summer? Then you're probably a) Newt Gingrich or b) a liberal who follows the politics Too Much. And you donotlove Barack Obama. A new study proves that 36% of people who took a poll last week "say they have no confidence or only some confidence in the president, congressional Democrats and congressional Republicans." Only 50% of those polled now say they support President Obama, which is less than half of the 22% who approved of George W. Bush in 2008.Shockingly, Ronald Reagan had an evenlowerapproval rating at this point during his first term, and yet Ronald Reagan was perfect in every way -- 1980-1982 is still remembered as a time when nobody even knew what the word "recession" meant, and everybody was a millionaire. Everybody! No wonder people are so upset today, with this Great Recession that Nobama made from the Koran. Also, "a sizable majority says the government should extend unemployment benefits."
