[Claudette]

The poll I saw said it was dead even.

Half the folks want investigations and don't trust the jackass and the other half do.

A new poll shows that recent scandals haven't hurt President Barack Obama's approval rating.

The poll, from CNN and ORC International, found that 53 percent of Americans approve of the job Obama is doing, while 45 percent disapprove. This number remains virtually unchanged from polls taken before the scandals hit.

The poll was taken on May 17 and 18, and has a 3 percent margin of error.

A CNN poll taken in early April showed Obama's approval rating to be 51 percent. According to a Gallup poll taken in early May, the president's approval rating was 50 percent.

The CNN poll also found that 71 percent of Americans believe the actions of the IRS employees who targeted tea party groups were unacceptable. However, 6 in 10 respondents said they trusted the president's statements on the issue.

It's good to see that Americans aren't the suckers that wingnuts would like them to be.

There so called scandals are silly.

Anyone who understands the office of the POTUS realizes that no president can micro-manage every activity of government.

There are no smoking guns leading to the POTUS in these so called scandals..

If or when that happens, public opinion will change, but not before that evidence is presented.

Now that Obama is trying to claim nothing the IRS did was wrong I think this poll will change pretty quickly.

Because idoits treat politics like it's a football game. My team is winning and we will root for them until the world ends.

Not knowing does not excuse his handling of the situation, and his refusal of a special prosecutor is revealing too.

That's because all 3 are phony scandals and the economy continues to improve.

All this tells me is that 53% of Americans polled are a stupid bunch.

Governing while black seems to be Obama's biggest problem.

And out comes the race card.

 

[TemplarKormac]

Well, Bush got away with it...

Two wrongs make a right. Yeah, we get it.

Are you saying Bush was wrong?

Are you saying Obama was wrong?

A CNN poll finds this aye... well gee... I wonder how they came up with something favorable for obama...

Bring out the smoking guns.

When they appear the American people WILL care.

Until then they won't unless they already hate Obama in which case no evidence is necessary.
