Approval of Congress at 40% - back up to where it was before the 2006 election. Funny, they have never asked me.

MSNBC poll: Obama earns 'F' on performance In survey of more than 100,000, president gets failing grade March 10, 2009 By Chelsea Schilling © 2009 WorldNetDaily worldnetdaily.com President Obama has earned a grade of "F" for his performance in office. He received a failing mark in an MSNBC unscientific online survey after having spent less than two months in the White House. In its "Give President Obama a Grade" survey, MSNBC asked more than 109,000 repondents, "If you were grading Barack Obama on his performance as president, what would he get?" More than half of all respondents – or 60 percent – gave Obama an "F." Only 16 percent said the president has earned an "A," while 6.4 percent gave him a "B," 5 percent answered a "C" and 12 percent said he has earned a "D." Meanwhile, Rasmussen Reports' daily presidential tracking poll for March 10, 2009, shows that 38 percent of voters strongly approve of Obama's performance. While the approval rating has remained between 38 and 42 percent since Inauguration Day, a full 32 percent now strongly disapprove of his performance – the highest disapproval rating yet. Nearly 56 percent of the 1,500 voters somewhat approve of the president's performance, while 43 percent disapprove. According to the report, Obama's Republican opposition has doubled since he took office.

Wrong again, Kenneth... Approval of Congress at 40% According to the Gallop Poll: Americans' job approval rating of Congress is up an additional 8 points this month, after a 12-point increase last month, and now stands at 39% gallup.com That makes the approval number 39% +-3%. Did you just decide to round this number up ? LOL! A more telling view of this poll is this: Americans who identify themselves as Democrats are mostly responsible for the improved ratings of Congress measured in the March 5-8 Gallup Poll. After showing a 25-point increase in their approval of Congress from January to February and a further 14-point increase in March, a majority of Democrats (57%) now approve of the job the Democratically-controlled Congress is doing. Independents also show improved ratings of Congress, but not nearly to the extent that Democrats do. Republicans' evaluations of Congress have changed very little this year. gallup.com Alas, Gallup has not seen fit to publish the weightings used for Democrats, Republicans, and Independents in this poll. Note also that Republicans have not changed their opinions much. For that matter, independents are virtually unchanged as well. The only conclusion: this poll was heavily weighted with Democrats. Talk about biased propaganda...I guess this is why you have chosen to use these numbers. You are ever the useful idiot living in your DNC fantasy land. LOL! Diz-
