OBAMA: FOOLING LESS OF THE PEOPLE MORE OF THE TIME

  • WHEN YOU RUN AS A POST-PARTISAN CENTRIST, BUT RUN THE PLACE LIKE THE RADICAL LEFTIST YOU'VE ALWAYS BEEN...
  • WHEN YOU SAY YOU'RE GONNA BE OPEN, HONEST AND TRANSPARENT, BUT RUN THE PLACE LIKE THE CHICAGO MACHINE POLTICIAN YOU'VE ALWAYS BEEN...
  • WHEN YOPU8 ANTAGIONIZE OLD ALLIES LIKE ISRAEL AND BRITIAN AND HINDURAS AND CANADA, BUT APPEASE IRAN AND CHAVEZ AND PUTIN...
... THEN THIS WAS BOUND TO HAPPEN - SAMMON/FOX/GALLUP:
President Obama's job approval rating has fallen to 47 percent in the latest Gallup poll, the lowest ever recorded for any president at this point in his term.

... When Gallup began taking presidential approval polls 71 years ago, Franklin Roosevelt had been president for more than five years. During his remaining time in office, his job approval rating never fell below 48 percent.

The next 11 presidents, both Democrats and Republicans, all had higher job approval ratings than Obama at this stage of their tenure. Their ratings were:

-- George W. Bush, 86 percent
-- Bill Clinton, 52 percent
-- George H.W. Bush, 71 percent
-- Ronald Reagan, 49 percent
-- Jimmy Carter, 57 percent
-- Gerald Ford, 52 percent
-- Richard Nixon, 59 percent
-- Lyndon Johnson, 74 percent
-- John Kennedy, 77 percent
-- Dwight Eisenhower, 69 percent
-- Harry Truman, 49 percent

YOU CAN'T FOOL ALL OF THE PEOPLE ALL OF THE TIME.
