Shout the word 'SAME' all you want, but what might be top story one day, might be third or fourth item on a busier news day. In short, your point means very little. It's not personal. It's just war.

My point means little to YOU , because of the obvious conclusion which you're running from, for what ever reason. Bad news for Bush = headline news SAME bad news for Obama = ignored.

Quote:only a mere 24% have a positive view of the Republican Party since they caused the government shutdown last Tuesday. A whopping 53% say they have a negative view of the GOP. But that’s not all. The Tea Party is taking an even harsher beating. Only 21% of those surveyed have anything good to say about the extreme wing of the GOP. And who do most Americans blame for the government shutdown? Why, Republicans, of course. 53% fault the GOP for the shutdown and an overwhelming 70% say Republicans are putting petty politics ahead of the country’s well-being.

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.

Quote:Originally posted by Niki2: There's also the fact that Bush's approval ENDED UP at 22% (!) and Obama's is headed back up again. But you see, Rap doesn't even have to THINK about these things, he gets them handed to him on a platter: "NBC Hypes 'Damage' to GOP in Shutdown, Ignores Obama Approval at 37 Percent" Newsbusters, of course, "exposing and combatting liberal media bias". All he has to do is click, read, regurgitate.

Quote:President Bush will leave office as one of the most unpopular departing presidents in history, according to a new CBS News/New York Times poll showing Mr. Bush's final approval rating at 22 percent. Seventy-three percent say they disapprove of the way Mr. Bush has handled his job as president over the last eight years. Mr. Bush's final approval rating is the lowest final rating for an outgoing president since Gallup began asking about presidential approval more than 70 years ago. The rating is far below the final ratings of recent two-term presidents Bill Clinton and Ronald Reagan, who both ended their terms with a 68 percent approval rating, according to CBS News polling. Recent one term presidents also had higher ratings than Mr. Bush. His father George H.W. Bush had an end-of-term rating of 54 percent, while Jimmy Carter's rating was 44 percent. Harry Truman had previously had the lowest end-of-term approval at 32 percent, as measured by Gallup. http://www.cbsnews.com/2100-500160_162-4728399.html]
Quote:No Party in Gallup's History Has Been Less Popular Than the GOP Is Now During the impeachment of Bill Clinton, Republicans were pretty unpopular. After eight years of George W. Bush, same. But never in the history of Gallup polling has the party been more unpopular than it is right now. Gallup: "[T]he Republican Party is now viewed favorably by 28% of Americans, down from 38% in September. This is the lowest favorable rating measured for either party since Gallup began asking this question." And 49 percent view Democrats unfavorably — but 62 percent have that opinion of Republicans. Interestingly, Republicans were twice as likely to view their own party unfavorably as were Democrats theirs. If nothing else, this new data reinforces what other polls have shown for weeks: it will take something significant for the Republican Party to walk away from this shutdown with a victory. http://www.theatlanticwire.com/politics/2013/10/republicans-are-setting-new-records-unpopularity/70367/]
