No. I have my own opinion. Only someone with a mob mentality would care about that.

You realize you just compared Bush's approval rating AMONG REPUBLICANS at this point with Obama's approval rating among ALL voters at this point, I suppose?

No, maybe you don't...

And so many conservatives wonder why no-one REALLY seems to want the GOP nomination bad enough to really go after it!

Thanks for the chuckle!

Doe it bug YOU that Regan had a 38% approval at this point in his presidency?

Bush ended up being the worst president in history so why would one point in time matter?

Don't use facts it only confuses them and makes the yell louder.

It doesn't bug me
It just means there are more uninformed FOX NEWS viewers than I had previously thought

No, not bugged at all.

Just like the only poll that counts is the one in November '12, the only approval rating is the one that takes place the day after a President leaves office.

W: worst President ever

O: Incomplete

Check back in '17 and we can talk again.

Fox News says it's 47%. But no it doesn't bug me, it's still higher approval than Clinton or Reagan had at the same point and they got re-elected

More importantly why do we care. Approval ratings are a waste of our time, they don't tell the general public anything important. Looking at past ratings only proves that they tell you one thing only- they don't matter. Whether the public approves of the president is no indicator of whether he is doing a good job or not. Since most people have no idea why or how the world works-economics, foreign policy, etc. it is only an indicator of who is doing a better pr job at the moment- the fors or the againsts.

And the unemployment rate was half as much as it is now. And he took heat for it.
