Obama Beats a 16-Year Record No President Should Ever Want to Beat
It’s refreshing to see people waking up to how horrible the present administration and Democratic policies have been to our country. There may be hope, after all. Why?
Because Obama has the highest percentage of people actively opposing him and his party of any President in the last 16 years (hat tip to this article for pointing this out to us.) Yes, that’s right, a higher percentage of people now oppose Obama than Bush in 2006. If you recall, 2006 was the year when Republicans took a beating in the mid-term elections because anti-Bush sentiment was all the rage in the mainstream media (not that it has ever really died down…).
A 2006 Gallup poll showed that 31% of voters planned to send a message of opposition to President Bush. This new Gallup poll shows that 32% of voters plan on sending a message of opposition to President Obama. So, President Obama can honestly say that he beat Bush in one thing fair and square: voter dissatisfaction.
Not that he would notice. He’s been too busy showing what his true priorities are. And what are those priorities? Well, the whole time that he’s been in office, we’ve been under the mistaken assumption that Obama’s priorities are liberal pet policy positions. Those are important to Obama in his demented thinking, no doubt, but his real priority is… wait for it… golf.
Yep. Golf.
Obama reached that coveted presidential milestone that, heck, even me, who doesn’t play golf, would have loved the time to accomplish: he played his 200th round of golf as President!
Now, that’s a change from business as usual in Washington that we can believe in, right?
That’s right. We have an economy that is in tatters, issues with foreign policy, a ridiculous invasion of our privacy and bureaucratic nightmare called the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), and he’s out playing golf.
He says he cares about the Ebola threat, and then goes golfing. He says he’s concerned about racism in America (and, specifically, Ferguson), and then he goes golfing. He says he’s concerned about the fact that “the economy is improving but you don’t feel it,” and then he goes golfing.
I doubt that I’m the only one who sees the connection between his plummeting approval ratings and the fact that he plays golf all of the time!

Golfing must be his strong suite. It sure is not running the country. ;)
