Gallup: obama job rating sinks below 40% for first time

You know what this article tells me? It tells me that 39% of the people in this Country are fucking idiots. Anyone who still thinks he is doing a good job should have their head examined, they probably have a tumor or something, or their just idiot liberals.

obama's job approval rating should be zero, the numbers are heading that way, but not near fast enough.

obama's summer woes have dragged his approval rating to an all-time low, sinking below 40% for the first time in Gallup's daily tracking poll.

New data posted Sunday shows that 39% of Americans approve of obama's job performance, while 54% disapprove. Both are the worst numbers of his presidency.

obama's approval rating has hovered in the 40% range for much of 2011, peaking at 53% in the weeks following the death of osama bin laden.

But Americans' view of his job performance continued to tick downward as the debt-ceiling debate heated up. By the time he signed legislation averting a federal default, he was mired in the low-40% range.

The polling setback comes as the Republican race to unseat him has kicked into overdrive. The past week has been dominated by the activity in Iowa ahead of the Ames Straw Poll, and the entrance of a new contender in Texas Gov. Rick Perry. The candidates have routinely assailed Obama's leadership in appealing to conservative activists who dominate this stage of the nominating contest.

obama is set to launch something of a counter-offensive on Monday with a three-day bus tour of the Midwest, a trip that includes two stops in Iowa. The White House denied that the itinerary was politically motivated, however.

The three-day tracking poll was conducted from Aug. 11-13.
