Really?

I don't ever remember a president with a 0 approval rating, yet there it is in black and white--or red and green. And after less than 6 months in office, at that.


Let's see, in less than 6 months in office he has tripled our national debt (quadrupled it, if you count the interest), more than doubled the unemployment rate, seized control of private companies, insulted our friends, betrayed our allies, bowed to our enemies, kissed up to those who would destroy us, tucked tail and run from obvious acts of aggression, nominated a supreme court justice who has already declared that she will judge not by what the law states, but by who she feels the most sorry for, and basically spent the entire time he's been in office apologizing for our very existence, all without producing the ever elusive long form birth certificate. What's not to approve of?

He still has no worries, Bec, being at zero. The media and ACORN will make sure he's re-(s)elected.

It's a tough job being all things to all people. :P

I don't see this as a "O" approval rating. It's just that the strongly approves match the strongly disapproves. There are fewer "Obama=God"'s and more "Obama=devil"'s. The fruit is past ripe, and getting ready to smell downright nasty!

Steve, that's how the Rasmussen poll determines the approval rating. They subtract the percentage of strongly disapproves from the percentage of strongly approves, and the resulting number is the approval rating. If they are equal, the rating is 0. Yeah, it seems a lot of voters are experiencing buyer's remorse, especially after the government takeover of GM.

Tammy, not for the MOTUS! He can walk on water, remember?
