Clearly, horses4courses has shown a below average ability to ferret out the facts before ever thinking about posting that picture and the caption.

So economics isn't Obama's strong suit. On the other hand, think of all the countries and regions in the world where relations with the US improved under President Obama and Secy of State Hillary Clinton, where we are once again established as one of the most respected countries in the world.

Just think of them. And help me out here, I'm drawing a blank right now.

Obama’s Legacy: 5 Million Increase in Households Where No One Works

http://mishtalk.com/2016/03/06/obama...-no-one-works/

Quote:
Research by the Hamilton Project and the Urban Institute show that when families with children making between $20,000 and $50,000 attempt to have a second earner go back to work, the effective tax rate on the extra earnings—including lost government benefits such as food stamps, the earned-income tax credit, and medical support payments—is between 50% and 80%.
Nice to see some numbers of the real impact of what increased government spending and benefits are....

There are several threads that have referred to multiple issues that show his support dropping. So, I decided to inaugurate a thread where over the next three years, the downfall of this phoney can be reported, recorded, discussed and followed in the proper manner befitting a man who was going to make oceans recede.

Let's start here with a small poll of who I am sure will be ridiculed beyond imagination. It's just a start mind you.......
Meanwhile.

Rivaling this?

Maybe if Trump g-d forbid wins we will finally drop below W

Hate to do this on principle but some of us -- specifically the left wing dweebs and simpletons -- don't seem to know the meaning of polls, approval ratings, and reality. They must be reminded of the facts or else they hide behind ridiculous charts and cartoons.

This is the only collapsing Obama poll that is meaningful.

The rest of the article, written a year ago, still holds muster, and is linked below.
