Yep looks like the dynasty is over. As of now Obama rating are lower than post Katrina Bush. The history books will reflect the worst president on foreign policy ever. Hillary has hell of a record to stand on lol.

NBC News White House correspondent Chuck Todd said “You look at the presidency here: lowest job rating, tied for the lowest; lowest on foreign policy. His administration is seen as less competent than the Bush administration, post-Katrina.”

“Then on the issue of do you believe you can still lead, and a majority believe not,” Todd continued. “Essentially the public is saying, ‘Your presidency is over’ by saying a number like that. 54% saying he no longer has the ability to lead and solve problems. That’s one of those things, you’re sitting at the White House going, ‘Wow.’”

Just 37 percent approve of his handling of foreign policy, which is an all-time low in the survey, while 57 percent disapprove, an all-time high.

I'm no Obama fan, but there is no fucking way that his handling of foreign policy has been worse than George W Bush. Two unnecesary wars, trillions of dollars down the shitter .... all left for someone else to clean up after.
It's just an opinion poll. All that means is there are less delusional fanboys of Obama than there were delusional Bush fanboys. How either of them ranks above 10 percent approval should be the story.

Well, I guess the Republican cocksuckers in the House and Senate won, didn't they? After all, they did say they wanted this Administration to fail, no matter what the cost to the American people. So, it seems that bad news for the President, is good news for the Republicans. Unfortunately, for the rest of America that trusted our politicians to do the best for our country, we get screwed by a bunch of assholes that hate each other. What happened to cooperation? I hope the American people figure this out, that the present situation of the US was started by Republicans about 14 years ago with those lying assholes Bush and Cheney. So, here we are with a supposedly failed Presidency, and all the Republicans are dancing a jig, while the country burns. Nice. Peace out

What do you want the government to do for you?

Work for the good of the majority of American citizens, and not let some ideologues take over control of the goverment
I don't want government involved in my day to day life. Am I am in the majority or minority? I ask because I really don't know anymore. This used to be a slam dunk.

what part of your day to day life is the government involving itself in?
I work in healthcare, but that's cheating.

I get in my car and put my seatbelt on because I want to. If I don't however, I get pulled over and pay a fine. I go to the store and buy groceries that have required labels on each. If I buy a dozen cans of the same soup, the labels are redundant, but mandated. My dollar doesn't buy what it did thanks to the money press. If I make a phone call, not only do I realize it's being monitored and stored, I am paying the fed gov it's piece to make that call. When I stop and buy gas, it contains ethanol which is not the best thing for my tractor and my 85 gold wing to run on. When I get home and check on my garden, there is something missing that I'd like to grow outdoors but can't for fear of prison.

I can't even open a lemonade stand without a permit. It's very intrusive.

Normally a presidency would be over.

However, Obama just blatantly violated the law by releasing 5 terrorists without notifying congress.

His patent office just ruled that a 75 year trademark is null and void because someone decided to be offended.

His EPA just put a 30% reduction on emissions for the power plants we rely on for electricity.

His state department is talking about negotiations with Iran over Iraq.

Yes, a normal presidency would be over but this is an imperial presidency. I cannot imagine what he is going to try to pull before he leaves office. He could pardon each and every illegal immigrant in the country if he chose to do so...

Nice start off with a partisan rant and end with the need for cooperation. Both Clinton and Bush could get bipartisan support, I wonder why that is? Now the dems/libs that have read this far are all ready spitting at the keyboard baseless conjecture but the truth is the Obama administration for the first two years had zero compromise. You can't start off a relationship like a tyrant child and expect mercy when your partners get the upper hand and that is no an excuse for the ridiculousness of the republicans just an observation. We the people have seen both sides acting like children with zero compromise since and are sick and tired of it from BOTH sides. While republicans are alienating people with their fundamentalist beliefs democrats look like school yard children name calling and finger pointing. BOTH parties are bought and paid for. BOTH parties are a joke right now and calling one more so than another is partisan bullshit showing that you care for our well being as much as the hacks running the show.
