A majority of the country still believes that President Obama isn't responsible for the state of the U.S. economy, but the number has steadily declined since his presidency began.

According to the brand-new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll, 56 percent think Obama inherited the economic situation, versus 32 percent who say his policies are responsible for it.

That's a drop from January of this year (when 65 percent said Obama inherited the economy), and from Feb. 2009 (when 84 percent said that).

"It is becoming Obama’s economy -- slowly but surely," said Democratic pollster Jay Campbell of Hart Research Associates, the Democratic half of the NBC/WSJ survey.

The rest of the NBC/WSJ survey will be released at 6:30 pm ET on NBC Nightly News and MSNBC.com. It was conducted Sept. 22-26 of 1,000 adults (200 reached by cell phone), and it has an overall margin of error of plus-minus 3.1 percentage points.

1. I still don't understand why myth/fact issues are polled.

What's the point other than to sway opinion?

3. Majority, Believes, Responsible, Economy.

Which is myth and which is fact?

2. 32 Percent probably also believe The Failure Fratster sits to the right of th'ALMIGHTY himself.

Dumbfucks. Bewsh fed steroids and adrenalin to what Reagan trained and Clinton massaged.

Obama's policies . . . fuck a bunch, that's some low-info idiocy. And to think these people vote. Amazing.
