Are you talking about the Bush shit? Pretty sure the reason it was brought up was to point out how ridiculous it is that Obama supporters are shoving bin Laden's capture into everyone's face as a major Obama accomplishment, when it obviously wasn't even a priority for Bush.

Im talking about people who approve of Obama's performance out of allegiance to political lines. "Why do you approve of Obama's performance?" "Because Bush was a horrible president."

that wasn't the question.

what do options have to do with whether you approve or don't approve of his presidency?

If you are a hardliner there will never be a president you approve of, because your ideology is so ridged that it is impractical.

Some people read into "approval" as a 100% representation of personal choices in the form of a president, those people are weird.

Total copout. Being a 'hardliner' is not a prerequisite to realize that Obama or Romney are both corrupt, lying pieces of shit that represent special interests. Arguing that one piece of shit is slightly less repulsive than the other is complete absurdity.

It is not impractical to want non-corrupt, honest politicians that respect our rights as well as the law. If you keep approving of pieces of shit, you will keep getting more of them. Unprincipled people like you, willing to settle for the lesser of two evils are the reason we get Bush and Obamas.

The system is set up to delegate power through special interest groups, prior to electing your favorite hardliner for President you will need to convince congress to change the laws regarding campaign finance and the electoral college.
 
I don't disapprove of everything Obama's done, but I feel that he has done more bad than good I guess. The 50% threshold is how I decide that I don't approve of his performance.
 
My question whenever I see a job approval poll is:

Who the fuck is voting "support" and for which reasons do you support him? Being black doesn't count.

maybe impractical is the wrong word

'unrealistic' is probably what i'd choose

it's unrealistic to expect non-corrupt politicians. it's naive to think that they will respect your rights. it is FUCKING DUMB to believe that you (as voters) have any influence at all over the way the country is run.

He never threatened to invade Syria. He proposed air-strikes, but when the polls showed a majority of Americans didn't want to do it, he decided not to.

it was a bit more than airstrikes but the end was the same yes.. MCCain was frothing over trying to join in back then and now has the audacity to say that Rand Paul is in the wrong on ISIS?
 
He was a war hero and should be honored for that but anything as a politician is complete horse shit
