Ouch.

[aether]

I don't get it.

It says his approval rating is at 44% which isn't that bad. It's better than a certain unnamed Republican who we had for a President before.

As long as Republicans don't get presidency in 2012 (even if Obama isn't president again), I'm fine with it. I really don't get where all the hate for him is coming from. :/

He's black, duh! AND Muslim! (<--- Comment is a joke and the rolling eyes smiley is meant to mock those that think that way.)


Seriously, other then that, I wouldn't know. Perhaps some people are genuinely unhappy with some or all of his decisions.

"some people" or you? Why don't you tell us why you don't like him?

Obviously. >.>

Most of the complaints I've heard are from people who obviously haven't done the research, like claiming he canceled the National Day of Prayer. He technically did, but not nationwide. He canceled it in the White House because it's the "people's house" and religion shouldn't intertwine with government affairs.

I'm sure there's some stuff to generally be dissapointed about, but I haven't seen much. He's gotten us one step closer to a decent health care system, the economy is slowly returning back to normal (although I think I remember hearing unemployment is falling again), and he really hasn't broken to many of his promises.

If we get an idiot from the tea party as president in 2012, I'm definitely moving to Vancouver like I'm considering. >.>

Even if that Republican is Sarah Palin?

Hahahahahaha that is great. I just love it when people say "everyone" hates Obama because he is "black". If that were true how did he come into office in the first place?

Couldn't it be because he is a terrible President?

[LoiterBug™ ?]

it saddens me that even the people who were gun-ho about having him as president are turning against him already.

at least he's trying.

and at least he's actually telling us what he can about what's going on.

[Dumezil]

I'm not surprised. Presidents during the war are never popular.

[Zephyr]

The President isn't popular during times of economic uncertainty? I am shocked to my core.

Apparently what's going on is not his fault. It's the fault of what the President did 10 years ago. Dang you!

Because apparently it takes 10 years of things to take effect in this economy. Can anyone point to a source to help validate this?

I was taught 8-10 years in High School.
