Have a hard time following a conversation? The honeymoon doesn't start until he is sworn in so that would be after he is president.

Pretty much a moot point.

No substance here. The man is not even President yet you act like he should be making decisions to change our course.

This happens with every new President incumbent, approval ratings are somewhat high prior to entering office.

Nothing different in Obama's case. But on the other hand, it seems that you're mocking him that he has a high approval rating. There's nothing to mock here. :) It is likely that they will fluctuate over the course of his tenure anyway.

You can go back to Clinton Administration and Congress from that point forward and that would be both sides of the isle.
Bush been sitting on the problems since the player Clinton administration and you expect Obama do a David Copperfield?

Again, follow the conversation. The point was made that Bush has a low approval rating. Okay, so what. Then someone said that Obama's approval rating is high. I made the point that you can't compare the two because Obama hasn't made any decisions yet as HE ISN"T the president. I went further and said lets check the ratings after the honeymoon is over and see where he stands. At the risk of repeating myself.....the honeymoon doesn't start until he is sworn in as president.

I can type slower if that will help.

He's the president is he not? Isn't it his job to address these problems? Once we see what he does to address them we then can determine if he is effective or not which, I suspect, will be reflected in his approval rating. See how this all ties together?

I am aware that this thread is about Bush.

However, I did not initially mention Obama. :) I ALSO DIDN'T compare them to each other. Your point stands. I never contested it.

My predicion is that he will do well to address the current issues with the collective responsibility

Thanks for the grammar lesson....who gives a shit. I will as soon as you do....or am I being irrational again and you stupid?

It just shows the flaws of your unwarranted comments. :24: Me, stupid? You cannot seem to get your grammar together correctly. :D

I'm just glad I got the opportunity to enlighten you regarding the basic principles of grammar flawlessness. Thank you.

Yes if you have nothing intelligent to add you can always address grammar. I suspect you will be addressing a lot of grammar.

Not really. But a great assumption. :D

Assumptions tend to be invalid most of the time. Why..... You already know this??

Grow up and learn a little, my friend. Your comments are not sticking to me as you had hoped, just thought I'd let you know. :nod:

So lets recap.....Bush has a low approval rating after 8 years of making decisions as President of the United States.

Obama has high approval ratings as President-elect making decisions of what bathing suit to wear today at the beach. Technically, that''s not correct, he has made two big decisions: hire everyone from the Clinton Administration and see how much you can get for my senate seat.

Yeah these two sets of numbers are comparable. :rolleyes: :sarcasm

You assume I care...as you know assumptions tend to be invalid most of the time. (That is factual incorrect but I wouldn't want to upset you anymore this evening.)

What's your source?

No he didn't. That's inaccurate.

He had little over a 50%-60% approval rating following his reelection (early 2005).

In addition, if that was the case, it just profits the notion that public opinion changes over the course of time, and fluctuates. Nothing more.
I am right. You are wrong.
