Obama Approval Drops Five
Points in Week

Breitbart Big Government, by Mike Flynn

Original Article

Posted By:JoniTx, 12/31/2012 5:30:30 PM

In the wake of his reelection victory last month, President Obama has enjoyed a steady rise in his approval ratings. According to Gallup´s daily tracking poll, Obama´s approval rating reached 58% on December 21st, a 52-week high. Election winners typically see a rise in their approval ratings in the weeks following victory. Over the last week, however, Obama has shed most of his gains. In Gallup´s latest tracking poll, Obama´s approval rating has dropped 5 points to 53%, a considerable drop in just one week, especially considering it was a holiday week.

Doesn´t matter, we´re still stuck with for the next only God knows how long.

Maybe an impeachment will change things. Pray for an impeachment and a guilty verdict.

That would be okay because Joke Biteme is too stupid to harm the country.

Most hated president ever by the end of his term.

I think he popularity has dropped because he is in our face constantly especially since he got back from his multimillion dollar holiday. I know I´ve avoided several impromptu WH meetings with the press and America this past week, plus I avoided MTP yesterday. He thinks everyone just loves him and so he gets on TV all of the time. Remember 2009? We couldn´t watch anything without seeing him or Michele on some program.

How about his latest Executive Order, giving raises to a "few" of his good friends, isn´t that usurping the House of Representative´s Constitutional duty to set the budget, taxes and spending bills.

Did Duh Wun have a Constitutional source for the money to pay those raises??

Is he above the rest of the government when it comes to the source of the funds he spends?? Does he have a Platinum card with no limit??

Is there anything the House leadership is willing to do to cut off his credit line??

The only way to bring Obama down is an open revolt by the left going after him and those chances are slim and none.Obama and his network have their claws in everybody and if you speak out of turn,you´ll be quickly taken down.The great thing about tyranny is it scares the hell out of everybody. the republicans are his enabler by doing things like passing an unemployment extension to give bums another years free ride.States ought to have the right to drug test on this at the very least.

Who cares? He doesn´t. He won.

So what? We are stuck with him. For several years we saw 40% or even less supposed approval ratings, and yet he won the election. As he said, this is his last election. He will do what he wants.

We need good candidates, and a good organization. We need some way to counter the mainstream media. Otherwise his approval ratings will not matter.

Well, well, well. I for one find this veddy intuhresting. It means the truth has somehow seeped through the otherwise impenetrable walls of propaganda to 5% of the starry-eyed and in denial. And they are blurting out the unspeakable in the privacy of their phone lines.

I will take what I can get in terms of progress. Beggars can´t be.. etc.

The 47 percent don´t care if the president is a criminal as long as they continue to get free stuff. Therefore, obama can perform any criminal act he wants knowing that his approval cannot drop below 47 percent. What´s more the 47 percent are de facto criminals as what they take from taxpayers represents a form of theft.

The truth seemed to have set in long before the last election...for whatever reason, from fraud to widespread stupidity and wanton "free stuff" greed, he was re-elected. What I cannot understand was the instant upshoot of "approval" after his re-election...it´s not like winning the election made him more popular, changed his policies, or people are just willing to give him a fresh start...was it?

Two points ....

1) If i recall correctly, this survey fluctuates from week to week, so therefore, it´s meaningless.


2) The bum´s popularity, plus one dollar will get you coffee at McDonald´s!

#2, Biden as president wouldn´t change a thing, because of the bureaucrats we don´t vote for actually doing most of the dirty work. And don´t forget all the czars, who would probably be staying to "help" Joe slide into his new gig. There is no way in Hades, the strangle hold these people have on our country would be turned over to Biden or anyone else. And that includes 2016, unless something drastic happens & our side finds the guts to do their jobs, this is as good as it will be for a long time, because it´s going to get worse.

Many of us cannot believe he has the approval rating he has; he is wretched, no leadership, and he does not tell the truth.

This is not junior high school.
The narcissist cares nothing about America, and he has his hands on the levers of power, to his own benefit.
Republicans are pusillanimous in opposition, sad to say.

He´s going to make sure that those ´´evil rich people´´ pay more and more taxes, so that he can give the idiot 47% more free stuff.

For that reason alone, he will never go below 47% in any popularity poll.

Just quit your job, sign up for welfare and food stamps, and turn over all your weapons. Why wait for the rush??? Be a trend setter among your friends. Beloved leader NØbama will reward you nicely!!!

Why do I feel like ´´1984´´ was just off by 30 years...

I am honestly still reeling from the election. I am just beyond gutted that he is still in there and ruining our country with such speed.
I am flabbergasted he hit 58%. Who likes him, who are these people? I live in California and no one talks about him at all any-more. It is like political conversations just stopped. I work with all lefties too.

Obama calls for reducing U.S.,

President Barack Obama followed in the footsteps of past U.S. leaders with a speech Wednesday at Berlin´s iconic Brandenburg Gate, where he said he would ask Russia to join the United States in slashing its supply of strategic nuclear warheads. "I intend to seek negotiated cuts with Russia to move beyond Cold War nuclear postures," Obama said in the city that symbolized the East-West divide in the decades after World War II. Repeating his campaign themes of equal opportunity and freedom for all, Obama said such ideals can provide the prosperity sought by all nations -- especially longtime allies

SANFORD, Fla.--The family of slain Florida teen Trayvon Martin has "every confidence" that a jury will convict George Zimmerman, the former neighborhood watch captain accused in his shooting death, a family attorney said. Martin´s family, including his mother Sybrina Fulton and father Tracy Martin, have attended jury selection proceedings in the Seminole County criminal courthouse since they launched more than a week ago. Attorneys in the case have been whittling down a pool of potential jurors, questioning them on their exposure to news reports in the high-profile case.

The Airbus next-generation A350 plane took off commercially at the Paris Air Show on Wednesday, winning multi-billion-dollar deals and the European manufacturer said that more deals were in the air. The news comes just days after the new plane took to the skies in its first ever test flight on Friday, stealing the limelight before the start of the air show -- a key event where Airbus and Boeing compete fiercely for plane orders. The two rivals are currently head-to-head -- $44.6 billion in new plane orders or agreements for Airbus versus $44.8 billion for Boeing -- after Ryanair

Daily Mail (UK), by David Mccormack    Original Article

A new documentary features interviews with six whistle-blowers who claim that the official explanation given for the ill-fated Trans World Airline Flight 800 crash in 1996 is wrong. The flight crashed off the coast of Long Island 17 years ago, killing all 230 people on board in what is the third-deadliest aviation accident in U.S. history. The official explanation given by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) at the time was that the crash was caused by a gas tank explosion. Many alternative theories exist, the most common is that a missile strike

Listening to Barack Obama give his speech in Belfast on Monday, it was hard not to stifle a yawn. I kept waiting for the part when he would say something interesting, but, about three quarters of the way through, realised it wasn’t going to come. Judging from television pictures some of his young audience felt the same, after the initial rush of euphoria of receiving the rock star president in their midst had passed. This is not surprising, for we had already heard this number about the inspirational role of the Northern Ireland peace process and the Emerald Isle’s

Women will have the chance to join the Navy SEALS, Army Rangers and other specialized combat outfits beginning in 2016 under plans approved Tuesday by Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel. Female candidates will also be able to join front-line Army and Marine Corps infantry units as part of the department’s decision. “The days of the ‘Rambo’ are over,” Maj. Gen. Bennet Sacolick, head of force development for Special Operations Command, said Tuesday during a briefing announcing the changes. Tuesday’s announcement builds on former Pentagon chief Leon Panetta’s decision in January to end the military’s long-standing ban

Michael Hastings, a contributor to Rolling Stone and BuzzFeed, died on Tuesday morning in a car crash in Los Angeles at the unforgivably young age of 33.He is best known, rightly, for his 2010 Rolling Stone profile of Gen. Stanley McChrystal, who as commander of the U.S.-led force in Afghanistan was the face of the war that Hastings saw as misguided and poorly managed. His profile, “The Runaway General,” portrayed McChrystal as a loose cannon so sure of himself and his strategy for the war that he and his staff openly derided their civilian overseers,

A group of whistleblowers, including a number of aviation experts, have come forward in a new documentary to claim that the official explanation for the crash of TWA Flight 800 was wrong and a gas tank explosion did not bring down the flight off the coast of Long Island 17 years ago. However, the six whistleblowers, all part of the original investigation team, stopped short of saying the plane was shot down. Flight 800, a Boeing 747, had just taken off from JFK airport with 230 people aboard on July 17, 1996 enroute to Paris when it exploded

Amid a steady rise of backlash, Edward Snowden, the 29-year-old former National Security Agency contractor who was the source of a spring of leaks about the agency´s surveillance methods, conducted a live chat on The Guardian´s website Monday morning. Judging from some of the pointed questions he´s been asked and the reaction to newly leaked revelations over the past few days, it´s clear that much of the sympathy and support Snowden had built up for his early exposures is eroding. Many Americans supported his decision to leak information about a pair of National Security Agency surveillance programs, which, he detailed, gathered information

An attorney whose firm represents two Benghazi whistleblowers said Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, lied to the Senate when he said there was never a “stand down” order during the Benghazi attack on Sept. 11, 2012. “What was fascinating is that he explained his lie to them,” Joe DiGenova, an attorney representing one of the whistleblowers, told CNSNews.com. “He actually said they were sent to Tripoli. They were needed in Benghazi,” said DiGenova, a former U.S. attorney, now with the Washington firm of DiGenova & Toensing.

As NewsBusters reported last week, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin called out vulgarian comedian Bill Maher for referring to her Down Syndrome son Trig as "retarded." On ABC´s The View Monday, co-host Barbara Walters astonishingly defended Maher saying, "I don´t think he intended it to be mean-spirited" (video follows with transcript and commentary): WHOOPI GOLDBERG: At a recent standup show in Las Vegas, comedian Bill Maher apparently called Sarah Palin’s five-year-old developmentally-challenged son Trig retarded. And Sarah blasted him on Twitter as a bully. Is that, is it, is he a bully? Is he a bad, what is he?

Jeb Bush says he’s not worried that his work toward comprehensive immigration reform and his ties to the GOP establishment will alienate conservatives and negatively impact a potential 2016 presidential campaign, referring to critics as “the chirpers.” “If I decide to run for office again, it will be based on what I believe, and it will be based on my record,” the former Florida governor said in an interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network’s David Brody. “And that record was one of solving problems completely from a conservative prospective.” Bush (R) pointed to his conservative

Charlie Rose last night asked President Obama his new Syria policy. The president first objected to it being called a new policy. "I´m not sure you can characterize this as a new policy. This is consistent with the policy that I´ve had throughout," he said. Obama then explained the goal is regional stability, and especially in Syria. "Really, what we´re trying to do is take sides against extremists of all sorts and in favor of people who are in favor of moderation, tolerance, representative government, and over the long-term, stability and prosperity for the people of Syria," said Obama.

The Obamas never miss an opportunity to mingle with the stars and during a two-day trip in Dublin, who better to have lunch with than iconic Irish rocker and philanthropist Bono? First Lady Michelle along with daughters Malia, 14, and Sasha, 11, started Tuesday with an hour-long visit to picturesque Glendalough in the Wicklow Mountains--but the two girls looked like they would have rather slept in at their luxury hotel. Glendalough is famous for its Medieval monastic settlement founded in the 6th century by St Kevin, the hermit priest.
