Most folks have noticed a different kind of Barack Obama these days - and we like it. He's got sort of a, 'I don't give a shit about the non-compromising GOP - fuck 'em. I've got the veto power, and I will use it. I've got nothin' to lose, and this country has everything to gain. So, get out of my way, McConnell, you freakin' fruitcake. I've got real work to do.'
No, no, the President didn't/wouldn't say it like that, but it was fun going there in my head for a few seconds. It is apparent that Obama has a different swagger, and from the information Jason Easley at Politicus.com reports, the president is becoming more and more popular these days, much to the chagrin of Republicans in Congress:
According to the Gallup Daily Tracking poll, President Obama’s job approval rating is a net (+1) as 48% of Americans approve of the job that the president is doing while 47% disapprove. The most recent result is the first time since September 2013 that the president’s Gallup job approval rating has been higher than his disapproval rating. The president’s approval rating has been on a steady rise over the past month. It is clear that the perception of the president’s job performance is changing.it's funny last night after the SOTU speech i called a few friends and said "Pres. is kickin' azz and taking names" "dude's takin' no prisoners", "he's sellin' wolf tickets and cashin' them", i particular noticed the approval ratings bar at bottom on MSNBC Pres. never went under 83% approval on the other side the when the hog lady gave her response it was more about her and Obama bashing then anything substantial. Beohner was just warming the seat waiting for what he thought he should act like he agreed with but the same republican adversity was present on his face and in the audience.
Pres. said nothing that wasn't true or that would not benefit the country or we the people, and republicans who have a very opposite agenda let it be known then and today as i type.
Republicans, who were hoping for Obama fatigue before the 2016 election are getting the exact opposite, as the President has acted on his own to remind millions of people why they voted twice for him. Republicans may have taken the majority in Congress, but it is President Obama who is on the rise.
Ba-ROCKIN Obama is the House!looks like republicans are the ones Lucy snatched the football and they can't kick legal executive order down the road 2016 looks a little less bright for them.
i think is was more like "Ba-ROCKIN Obama is in the House!
