    It was pretty consistent. Forties, then 50's, then tanked after the debt deal.

    He signs bills into law last time I checked. Are you calling Pelosi and Reid failures?

    Obama Job Approval at 41%, Tying His Low
    Independents' approval rating down to 35%
    by Jeffrey M. Jones

    PRINCETON, NJ - The latest Gallup Daily tracking three-day average shows 41% of Americans approving of the job Barack Obama is doing as president. That ties his low as president, which he registered three times previously -- twice in August 2010 and once in October 2010.

    ahem........

    Look Kranes, I wont knock the way you want the country, and I do not think he is trying to sink us on purpose, but if you have any political experience you have to know his Presidency has been a bust.
    If you cant see that then take a real good look at all the polls, and ask yourself are we better off? the Fact is we are not.
    Now you can spin things anyway you want, and say,,''Well the Repubs,,,wellll the Tea party'', but remember this Kranes, every single President before him has run into political opposition,,,EVERYBODY!!
    You either handle it well, or.....................you dont!

    Good Americans need to continue to open their eyes to that revelation and join us as we toss out liberalism in 2012. Sadly, with liberals in the senate and WH, we can't do anything meaningful until Nov 2012. The country will just languish which saddens me to watch that occur as the incompetent one vacations.

    They looked fine to me. Not all are business minded people dressed in suits and ties. A lot of them were going for blue collar jobs. I thought they looked pretty good for standing outside all night in the heat that took at least 4 to the hospital for heat exhaustion.

    I give them credit for still trying. I give them credit for not giving up. I give them credit for still trying to pursue a job instead of resigning themselves to living off the government.

    rapunzel,

    My question was "would you hitr them". From what I saw even I a Union man would not have hired most - they looked like bums. I dont care how hot it was there is a certain decorum that should be follwed when seeking a job - first impressions are what counts.

    With great numbers like that, no wonder Obama and Co are taking ANOTHER well deserved vacation.

    Yeah,,you would give them credit, but with Obama in office will anybody else??? LOL
    I remember the last days of Carter, I had excellent credit and showed a fantastic salary,,I almost could not buy a car,,it took them a week to approve it, and I even brought in a signed statement from my accountant... That's how bad it will get here...
    This guy is ruining us,,,,
