Obama at 39 percent % approval, 55% disapprove, Gallup shows.

RCP average shows him at -13.5, which is only slightly better than Bush levels at this time.
For some reason, the economic recovery (which has been happening for over a year, really) is not helping the president. I think it's because it has taken so long, that reasonable Americans know it is happening in spite of him, or simply he has nothing to do with it.

I still can't fathom the mindset of the 39% that actually approve of a POTUS that hasn't accomplished a damn thing in 5 1/2 years.

Wonder what congresses approval rating is.

His approvals are down across the board.

It should be single digits. There aren't but a handful in the House I'd give a nod too and less in the senate.
39% favorable for obama is shockingly high. How can anyone believe we're heading in the right direction under his leadership?

All those folks who had to drop out of the workforce, they're all brainwashed.
All those US multinationals succumbing to attraction of inversions based on idiotic tax policy, they're all brainwashed.
All those twenty-somethings who've never found a decent job out of college, they're all brainwashed.

I wonder what it would be if the media wasn't covering for him...

And they can't possibly disapprove of obama's performance?

Considering the antithetical nature of MSM coverage for Bush vs Obama, I find similarities of their Gallup numbers amazing.

That way too high. Its likely closer to 30%
Edit: Here's a 2010 Gallup poll
As of 2010 [update], Gallup polling found that 31% of Americans identified as Democrats (tying a 22-year low), 29% as Republicans, and 38% as independents. By 2011, Gallup found that Americans identifying as independents had risen to 40 percent.

31% are registered demcrats, and then there are the "indpendents" who always vote D.
Once you factor in those, 39% becomes understandable, no matter how bad this shitshow presidency gets.
