Hands down Obama is the worst president since WWII: poll Poll after poll shows President Obama’s approval rating dipping recently, and one new Quinnipiac University Poll finds that voters say Mitt Romney would have been a better choice in 2012. With Mr. Obama deploying military troops to Iraq, failing to find compromise with Congress and seeing major defeats in the Supreme Court, voters continue to sour on him. Quinnipiac found 45 percent of voters say the country would have been better off if Mr. Romney, the 2012 GOP nominee, had been election, while just 38 percent say Mr. Obama remains a better choice. Even Democrats aren’t so sure — just 74 percent of them told the pollsters Mr. Obama was clearly the better pick in the last election. Voters also rate him the worst president since World War II, topping even his predecessor, President George W. Bush, who had left office with terrible ratings. “Over the span of 69 years of American history and 12 presidencies, President Barack Obama finds himself with President George W. Bush at the bottom of the popularity barrel,” said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/jul/2/obama-worst-president-wwii-new-poll-shows/--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wow! Much sad. Very much racist American people! Why U Mad? Very cry!

Barack Insane OdumbASS OFailure burns America down Huge Jobs Report: The U.S. Economy Added 288,000 Jobs in June The latest jobs report has some actual good news for the economy http://www.nationaljournal.com/economy/huge-jobs-report-the-u-s-economy-added-288-000-jobs-in-june-20140703 On top of that good news comes positive revisions for job gains in May and April. The May report was revised up from 217,000 jobs to 224,000, and the April report was boosted from 282,000 to 304,000. Average hourly wages are up two percent since last June Dow Jones Industrial Average hits 17,000 for first time http://www.bbc.com/news/world-28134342U.S. private job gains in June largest in one and half years http://uk.reuters.com/article/2014/07/02/uk-usa-economy-idUKKBN0F71TG20140702?type=GCA-ForeignExchange In a separate report, the National Federation of Independent Businesses said small business hiring increased in June for a ninth straight month, the longest string of gains since 2006. Jobs and Car Sales Expected to Show U.S. Economy Rebounding http://www.newsweek.com/jobs-and-car-sales-expected-show-us-economy-rebounding-256597 a fifth straight month of job gains above 200,000, a run unmatched since the Sept 1999-Jan 2000 period, just before the dot-com bubble burst. "If we settle at a 215-220 (thousand) pace that would be consistent with a transition to a faster pace of growth of around 3 percent," said Lewis Alexander, U.S. chief economist at Nomura. Highest market ever Most months in a row over 200,000 jobs added since Clinton. More small business hiring that any time since 2006. Damn that Obama for burning down this country. How I long for the days of Bush in 2007 when we were losing 700,000 jobs a month. At least he loved America!!!

Haven't you heard ? It's a lie. Everyone is conspiring to make Obama look good. Because he is the only one who benefits when the country does well

Its not a tin foil hat wearing type deal but, the jobs numbers are flawed. After someone goes off unemployment they are no longer counted, if someone does not qualify for unemployment they are not counted. The reason small business are hiring is cause that's all thats left.

That old saying "Its the economy, stupid".....we don't like that one so much any more.
We have some new ideas.
#5) It's the Islamist President, stupid!
#4) It's the old Soviet Union again, stupid!
#3) Its the diseased immigrants, stupid!
#2) It's America-Killing Healthcare, stupid!
#1) It's Benghazi, stupid!
Tap your shoes together and say scandal until your blood vessels burst.
To think black guys don't get breaks. He's got the longest string of 200,000+ jobs per month since Clinton, highest markets ever, small business success....coming out of the worst recession in 100 years......and the rabid right among us are ready to call him the worst president ever. The next black guy will think twice before running.

We are witnessing a total meltdown from cons because Barack Obama is a successful leader. The more he succeeds, the more they stray into becoming delusional liars - and losers too. LOSERS lol. 2016 is looking pretty dim for the GOP.
And I thought that their lies about him BEFORE he was elected were ugly. They've eclipsed themselves. At least they are succeeding in something.

See no good, hear no good, speak no good. Long for the days of losing 700,0000 jobs per month. Change the way we have historically tallied unemployment to make the numbers all look worse.
92 million americans.....many of which are children and retired baby boomers. But the number sure sounds awful. There are more people working today than in 2009. That is driving you nuts.

Wait till the BLS is back up I will show you all how flawed your views really are. You should really go with statistics and not your political beliefs and THAT IS WHAT FUCKS THE USA OVER. People tend to go with one side or the other and fail to do the research and just believe the bullshit they feed you to rable rouse you.

Even if Iraq was a war, which it wasn't technically (haven't declared war since ww2), you can't win a war on terrorism, because terrorism will always exist, and as long as the US exists, they will be one of the biggest terrorist groups. Actually, the US is the biggest terrorist organization in the world. Period. And they're not going to wage war on their government, just their people.

There's no doubt that the u3 unemployment numbers reported as the "official unemployment numbers" in the media are far from accurate as they only account for a small percentage of unemployed. If the the entire u1-u6 unemployment numbers were used as the official numbers, unemployment percentage would easily jump by 6 percent, by conservative estimates.

Not to mention these so-called created jobs are lower wage and minimum wage jobs, not the middle class lifting element that we've seen in the past. The ones that are great are typically contract positions that last for a short time and are usually benefiting to those that have been in the job market for decades and/or newly retired folks. There's a whole generation (millenials) that have next to no opportunities our of high school or those that graduate college w/ a 2 or 4 yr degree that have loans w/o jobs in the line of work they went to school for. So, there's a very limited supply of younger people having families in a responsible way that can afford to buy even starter homes, let alone buy the houses of all the Boomers retiring. It's not just Obama to blame but the entire ruling and political class current and past that have used the system for their advantage at the expense of main street. There's no way to defend the amount of spending that's been going on abroad or here at home thinking that's a way to future prosperity and I can't believe there's anyone into cryptos that truly buys into any of that.

Well I guess when people are forced to work two jobs at 30 hours each just to make a living wage, you can call that a success story for the US economy. Good job to our leaders for creating these opportunities for the masses by burdening the employers who offer decent jobs with these asinine laws and regulations. Small businesses are suffering, people are financially stressed to the limit, and those government reports sure do make everybody feel better about it!

Some 2 million Americans lost their jobs shortly before Barack Obama took office, but make no mistake: they lost them precisely because he was about to do so. And to argue against that is to demonstrate colossal ignorance as to what a business owner's first job is, which is to see around the corner and position his business for what is coming.
And business owners saw Obama coming. They saw Pelosi's and Reid's increased power coming, too. They feared that trifecta so much that they went ahead and fired about 2 million people between Election Day 2008 and the inauguration. They were too scared to wait until Obama was actually sworn in.

Pew also found that 52% of Solid Liberals "have college degrees and 21% have graduate degrees" while "45% say if they could live anywhere they wanted, they would live in a city." While 93% of Solid Liberals believe that "stricter" environmental regulations are worth the cost, only "12% say the description 'hunter, fisher or sportsman' fits them well, the lowest share of any typology group." Conservatives are significantly prouder to be Americans. Pew's survey found that "81% of Business Conservatives and 72% of Steadfast Conservatives say the phrase 'often feel proud to be American' describes them well." Pew also concluded that the "feelings of pride in being American – and a belief that honor and duty are core values – are much more widespread among the two conservative groups than the other typology groups." http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2014/07/04/Pew-Survey-60-of-Solid-Liberals-Not-Proud-to-Be-Americans------------------------------------------------------ Hot dogs, burgers and Bud!

People have very short memories. The absolute tailspin the economy was in back in 2008 can't be described in a forum post. Failures of investment banks, AIG, the auto industry on the verge of utter collapse.
It's very easy for people to have their opinions "on paper". Let the auto industry fail...that's how markets work. Who cares that the economy was circling the drain, let's just throw a million more people out the door. Let AIG fail, who cares that 50 million people would wake up with no car/home insurance and their employer can't transport goods to market.
I personally feel Obama should be charged for his targeted killing of American's overseas, and am less than happy with the targeting of whistle blowers and constant creep into privacy being eroded.
Naomi Wolf had a documentary called "The End Of America" where, under GW Bush she talked about a lot of the parallels occurring in the early 2000's that were reminiscent to nazi germany, east germany, the soviet union and other dictatorships. (People spying on each other, paramilitary groups etc) An important point she made, was that once you give up something to the government, the next guy in line isn't exactly going to be forthcoming to give it back. Obama has taken every inch given to him by the previous POTUS, and whomever follows Obama will do the same.
If you believe folks are born gay, then allowing them to serve in the military openly is something Obama did positive. If you (like I) have family who have a child with a genetic illness, you can now buy health insurance for them - that's because of Obama. Credit card companies have stricter rules if they're going to just try to bump up your rates, that's because of Obama.
To say that things are worse (economy) now than in 2008 is just flat out wrong. To say that Obama has done nothing positive, is also wrong.

So when bill Clinton enacted don't ask don't tell and Obama never said he was against it was he an hypocrite back then? While he was against gay mariage there was someone else who was for it: dick Cheney... Strange isn't it... Obamacare is a monstrosity. It needs to die the same way the VA lets the veterans die: slowly and painfully, a few yard away from an emergency room... The latest Supreme Court decision was a good start

I don't recall what Obama said when he was 32 years old in 1994 when DADT was enacted. I know he used to be against gay marriage. I also know the difference between him and Cheney is that when Cheney was in a position to actually make a difference on the issue - he did nothing except say he loved his (gay) daughter. Obama is a hypocrite on a lot of issues - HUGE SHOCK! A POLITICIAN IS A HYPOCRITE!!! My post pointed out that there are some good things (in the eyes of many) that Obama has done. It also pointed out that the economy is no where as close to what it was in 2008. You didn't post anything to dispute that. You wanted to go off on a rant against the ACA - so good on you.

If your definition of a good economy is to print 85 Billions of new bills every month and artificially pumping wall Street while every days food for every day people keep climbing, it would seem to me you are for the 1% and too bad for the poorest of the poor. You may have a point on that hypocrite notion for obama being a liar though... We can agree on that
