Why is Obama still so popular?
 
Answer: 8 years of George W Bush and the Republican Party..


From 2008:

Bush’s 69% Job Disapproval Rating Highest in History

PRINCETON, NJ -- President George W. Bush's disapproval rating is at 69% -- which is not only the highest of the Bush administration, but the highest disapproval rating in Gallup Poll history.

http://www.gallup.com/poll/106741/Bu...p-History.aspx Yes, he was even more unpopular than Richard Nixon..

And in 2012?

George W. Bush is the most unpopular living President..

According to the poll, released Thursday morning, 43% of people questioned had a favorable opinion of Bush, with 54% saying they had an unfavorable view of the former president. Bush's 43% favorable rating is the same as it was in 2010..

Because he's the Messiah?

Rugda 07-19-2012 06:33 AM

As for the matter of how Bush will be judged by historians, according to a recent poll, 61 percent of historians questioned in a recent poll described him as "the worst president in history." A huge 98 percent declared that his presidency would be judged a failure.

Because we have too many liberals, niggers, fags and illegals in this country.

THE MEDIA.

hernkingAnank 07-19-2012 12:36 PM

Because he gives the impression of having interests, beyond that of corporate toadying. No 'man of the people' he, but certainly no 'good ole boy' either. Not just another white, stuffed suit who hails from old money. Probably didn't rub shoulders with government cronies at university. Seems to give a fuck, even if you disagree with what he's doing. Not everyone's a Conservative, whose life revolves around their bank balance. And that must infallibly exert a great influence upon the public psyche.

That's fresh. It's different. Dare I say it. Unique?

... ..AND YOU HAVE NO CLUE ABOUT WHAT A CONSERVATIVE IS.

NONE.

toopyimport 07-19-2012 12:44 PM

To the contrary, I understand Conservatism all too well.

Liberalism, also.

Which is why I reject both.

LIBERTY.


THE REST IS SHIT.


TYRANNY, MORE OR LESS....


TUMOROUS TYRANNY, ALMOST WITOUT EXCEPTION.

GOVERNMENT SERVES GOVERNMENT.....LAVISHLY....



AT THE POPULAR EXPENSE.

THE AMERICAN MODEL ADDRESSED THAT.... TO OUR GREAT GAIN.


AS WE DEVIATE MORE AND MORE FROM THAT MODEL,

OUR FORTUNES, PERSONAL AND NATIONAL, DECLINE MORE AND MORE.

WE GET EVER MORE OF EVER LESS-USEFUL GOVERNMENT.


OUR GOVERNMENT IS WRECKING OUR ECONOMY, OUR SOCIETY,


AND OUR INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS AS IT CONSUMES OUR

LIBERTY AND OUR SUBSTANCE.



OBAMA IS A MALIGNANT LITTLE FOP......


REGARDLESS OF THE FAWNING MEDIA.


HIS DETRACTORS AND HIS THRALLS ALIKE

OVER-CREDIT HIM..... HE'S JUST A MONKEY ON A STRING...


AND NOT MUCH OF A MONKEY, AT THAT.

Problem is, people acknowledge no universal definition. One man's liberty is another's tyranny. And freedom could quite well include the freedom to proceed as one will, and with no thought for the freedom of another. Were these concepts written in stone, human history should not have bequeathed us such as war and oppression. The government has the 'freedom' to infringe. They are at 'liberty' to do so. Or so they believe. And that's the point.

Look at this board. There are those here who preach that liberty translates as genocide and persecution. That freedom and liberty necessitate the murder of billions.

A document is all well and good, but no two people will read it quite the same way.

YOUR GOVERNMENT IS DOING THE SAME TO YOU.....



YOU MAY APPRECIATE IT, BUT I DO NOT.

6Rexw51X 07-19-2012 01:08 PM

Obama's a cunt.

But he's a different kind of cunt. That was my only point. He appears as different, to the masses.

And different has an appeal.

DfrtYhyu 07-19-2012 01:11 PM

I don't appreciate it, but I'm stuck with it. At least for the time being.

LIBERTY IS NOT A MYSTERY....

AND IT IS NOT TYRANNY.

GOVERNMENT REQUIRES MASSIVE RESTRAINT.


GOVERNMENT IS THE AUTHOR OF GENERAL TYRANNY....


ALWAYS.


GOD, THE MERCHANT, AND EVEN SATAN MERELY OFFER....

GOVERNMENT..... WHETHER A KING OR A COMMITTEE,

COMPELS.


KEEP GOVERNEMNT A-BEGGING, OR IT WILL ROB YOU OF YOUR VERY LIFE.

THE EU IS A SHIT-HOLE.



AMERICA, PRIOR TO 1913, WAS HUMANITY'S FINEST PRODUCT.


HITLER'S REICH DEMONSTRATES THE

INNATE NATURE OF GOVERNMENT.....


AS DO ALL THE MYRIAD, MURDEROUS TYRANNIES THAT


FRECKLE HUMAN HISTORY.

There is evil and corruption. Self-interest and advantage.

Criminals, who care not for platitudes.
