Do you Approve or Disapprove of President Obama's Job Performance?

Yesterday Gallup released figures showing that Obama has slid to a 46% approve vs 45% disapprove rating. The lowest numbers this early in a presidency...ever.

Rasmussen Report's number are even more disturbing (for Dems) with 56% of likely voters now strongly disapproving of Obama, while just 26% approve.

But that's what the pros say.

WHAT SAY YOU YAHOO?

Please opine with pithy comments from anywhere, even the WH press room, anytimeanytime if so inclined. And when answering please do not be...(word of the day)...misanthropic like Rahm Emmanuel in the No Spin Zone.

Remember, the spin stops here because we are definitely looking out for you!

Update:

After 28 respoces and 4 hours, 24 strongly(or grossly) etc etc DISAPROVE of Obama, his policies, his choice of aftershave....everything about him! This nutjob (consesus opinion) has got to go ASAP. So lets all email our Congressman (I have a great one in Dana Rohrebacher (R) Huntington Beach) and tell them to stick it to Obama and his Health Care Defrom!

    Meh, Obamacare is about to crash and burn, that's the nail in his coffin, he achieved nothing but giant wasteful debt. But he is basically nothing more than a sitting duck. He can spend the rest of his term playing with "Bo" and speaking at black rallies or marches or whatever it is they waste their time doing instead of getting jobs.

    An O'Reilly wanna be?

    On the actual fighting in Afghanistan I believe he has done a great job. Using the surge tactic, drones and special ops. The one drawback here is the mess he has made of the trials for terrorists, the Gitmo closing, miranda rights

    On domestic issues I would have to say he has done a horrible job. Divided the country more than it already was.

    His choices for cabinet positions and his close advisers have been poor at best. Letting Pelosi and Reid draft the health care agenda was just plain ridiculous. He should have known the majority of the country could not have stood for anything the two most liberal people in congress would draft. He ran as a moderate and governs like a liberal. Pretty much mislead everyone on both sides of the isle.

    You're kidding... right?

    Obama is the biggest joke of a President ever. He wastes money like no other President ever (even WITH adjusting for inflation), he broke down proven security measures that the previous administration set up that kept us safe, he has caused unemployment to RAISE about two percentage points since he took office, he wants to close down GITMO and place dangerous terrorists on American soil, he reversed the Mexico City Policy so now American's tax dollars are being used to fund abortion advice, he took over GM and placed a former campaign worker of his in a high executive position there, Kim Jong Ill pushed him around firing (assumed) unarmed missiles up in the air around our territories, he is doing nothing about that lunatic Ahmadinejad developing weapons in Iran, he wants to socialize health care, he has no qualms about Congress not reading bills that they pass, he rewards those who contributed to his campaign with stimulus money, and he STILL blames Bush for all the World's problems and has taken 0 responsibility for himself.

    To say that I disapprove is an insult to those people that I disapprove of.

    Disapprove! Because neither Obomba nor his Treasury Secretary has a clue about deficit spending. They don't have a clue. Clueless in DC.

    The best thing I ever saw of Bill O'reilly was when he got destroyed by Neal Boortz in a 2002 debate he had with him.

    Anyway.

    I Disapprove.

    Strongly disapprove.

    He is eroding freedom and property rights. and he is spending this country into utter destruction. If he wins another term the republic will not survive to see the end of it.

    I strongly DISAPPROVE of almost everything this joker has ever done...which is almost nothing...He doesn't even like being in the White House, he's always on some trip delivering campaign stump speechs from his favorite pair of teleprompters.

    DISAPPROVE! What he has managed to do, is to tear this Country apart. Along with his gang of Chicago thugs, Pelosi, Reid, and the rest of the crooks.
