Washington (CNN)President Barack Obama's job approval numbers are sinking as American attitudes about the nation's progress have taken a turn for the worse, according to a new CNN/ORC poll.

If CNN sees a slight increase in his disapproval numbers, they will flog it for as long as they can.

CNN has taken the Fox News approach and is trying to get the GOP elected in 2016.

You can bet Wolf Blitzer will tout that article as proof we need a Republican in office.

He'll do it in a subtle way of course.

Keep in mind that CNN is just one polling outfit.

Gallup had this article two weeks ago:

One thing I have noticed is that Democrats continue to give Obama very high marks.

48 approval 47 disapproval in the last CNN poll...what were the headlines then? And 45 approval now is the average of most polls....so what a piece of shit article this is.

Zucker's toy propaganda outfit is as obvious as Fox.

President Obama is hugely popular among Democrats across the ideological spectrum.


If you have data that contradicts this I would be interested in seeing it.

Thank you in advance.

The truth is the truth and facts are facts, if people refuse to acknowledge them, that's their problem. There's a lot of documented evidence about what certain people are doing that other people refuse to see.

Sometimes I wonder if our 'base' isn't just as blind as the GOP base sometimes.
