Reuters Poll: Obama's Approval Rating Craters To Only 39%...
2013-09-29
As President Barack Obama's signature Affordable Care Act enters the all-important sign-up phase next week, the president finds himself with some of the lowest approval ratings of his presidency even as Republicans in an unpopular Congress maneuver to block the health-care legislation from taking effect.

A Reuters-Ipsos poll of 1,729 Americans taken Sept. 20-24 found only 39 percent of those surveyed approve of the job Obama is doing as president, while 55 percent disapprove. Even worse for Obama, Reuters used a D+10 sample, only 30% of those surveyed were Republicans.

#7  Yuuupp - besides the economy, sequester, debt crisis, + now possible Govt shutdown the Bammer still has the greater litmus tests of Iran + espec China-vs-Japan/East Asia.

Unilateral "OWG/Global Vichy" surrender on SYRIA = surrender on IRAN = surrender vee "Mahanist" CHINA - WHAT SIMILAR MORE SURRENDER VEE JIHADI TERRSTRIKES, FOREIGN ANDOR DOMESTIC, AGZ CONUS INCLUD NEW POSSIBLE "NEW 9-11'S" OR WORSE INVOL NUKES-WMDS???

BOTH OSAMA NOW ZAWAHIRI, ETAL.S HAD LONG RECOGNIZED THE PENCHANT OF US POLITICOS TO BE UNABLE TO CONTROL THEMSELVES AS PER PERENNIAL OVERSPENDING, NEPOTISM, + SPECIAL INTERESTS, HENCE BOTH OSAMA'S + ZAWAHIRI'S CALL FOR JIHADIS TO ATTACK THE USA VEE "000 CUTS STRATEGY" [Economic Jihad] IN ORDER TO INDUCE AMERICA = AMERIKA TO DESTABILIZE ITSELF + "SPEND, SPEND, SPEND" UNTO IMPLOSION + SELF-OBLIVION.

As LENIN put it, AMERICA = AMERIKA "SELLING THE ROPE TO OTHERS THAT WILL BE USED BY SAME TO HANG AMERICANS = AMERIKANS WITH".

Just as Ahmed can't be blamed for their Mullahs + Allan telling to have sex + kiddies all over the place, one similarly can't blame Ahmed because Amerika's leaders, refuse to balance their own checkbooks in favor of fairy-tale-ish, universal Socialist "free everything".

UNLESS SOMETHING CHANGES, IFF ISLAM DOESN'T THE WORLD CHINA = ASIA/ORIENTALISM WILL - THE JUDEOCHRISTIAN US-WEST WILL HAVE DESERVED TO HAVE LOST OR BE DESTROYED.

As said before, the Globalists/Globies are taking a very dangerous risk that intentional or unilateral US rollback of power-n-influence across the world, in deference to a OWG "MultiPolar/PolyCentric" agenda of Multiple Par "Co-Superpowers", WILL NOT BE INTERPRETED AS DE FACTO STRATEGIC OR GEOPOL WEAKNESS(ES} ON THE PART OF THE US BY ITS ENEMIES, RIVALS, OR PROTAGONISTS,INSPIRING THEM TO FORCIBLY = MILITARILY TAKE WHAT THE US CAN NO LONGER DEFEND OR REFUSES TO DEFEND.

EYES WIDE OPEN, NOT EYES WIDE SHUT.

I don't want to be around when the US mainstream realizes their country's loss of poweR, status, territory(s) + sovereignty, etc. was PRE-PLANNED = INTENTIONAL, BY THEIR OWN US POLITICOS WHOM ENGAGE MORE IN SELFISH "WE-DON'T-HAVE-TO-EXPLAIN-ANYTHING-TO-THE-PEOPLE/VOTERS-OR-TO-GOD" TYRANNY THAN PROPER LEADERSHIP.

* IIRC DRUDGEREPORT > US SENATOR SAYS POLITICS IN WASHINGTON HAS REACHED "CIVIL WAR LEVELS".

#3  After nearly 5 years of this lazy bugger, still finding over 600 people who "approve" in only 5 days. A disturbing indictment I'd say.
