New poll shows that most voters believe that barack is the worse president of modern times,
Quote:Two years into President Barack Obama's second term, more voters say they are dissatisfied with his administration's handling of everything from the economy to foreign policy, giving him the worst marks of any modern U.S. president, a poll on Wednesday said.
In a survey of 1,446 registered voters, 33 percent said Obama was the worst president since World War Two, while 28 percent pointed to his predecessor, George W. Bush, as the worst, the poll by Quinnipiac University found....
...Most voters said Ronald Reagan, who served two terms in the 1980s, was the best president since 1945, the survey showed.

Yeah because public opinion is always so steady, firm and right. You just have to ask Galileo, Jerry Lewis, and you know..the gay people.
I much prefer the sharpest criticism of a single intelligent man to the thoughtless approval of the masses.

What?
You expected "Oh you were so right and we were so wrong please forgive us". Because I think I speak for many of my fellow atheists when I ask

We told you so. We told you so? Some of us aren't even Americans genius.

When directly asked who was worse, Obama or Bush: Obama 40%, Bush 39%.
These percentages are probably close to what would be expected if people were asked if they prefer to eat cat shit or dog shit.

Reagan was very unpopular during long stretches of his two terms. If I'm not mistaken, his approval rating was in the mid/low-30s in 1984... not long before he buried Mondale in the '84 election. Bush Sr enjoyed approval ratings in the 90s before losing to Bill Clinton, who spent much of his first term doing about as well as Reagan did in terms of approval. Time tends to mellow people's perceptions of the president, especially if things aren't going well. The fact that Dubya's numbers are still that low indicates that people still blame him at least in part for the country's ongoing problems, and I think that's pretty rare.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

I'll admit that Obama has been a huge disappointment, especially after getting the ACA passed. I'd still vote for him over Mitt Romney or John McCain. This two party system is the worst.
