Gallup: Obama One Of The Most Polarizing Presidents In History…
Remember his absurd campaign promise to be the first “post-partisan” president? Good times, good times indeed.
(Politico) — President Obama’s third year in office elicited some of the most polarized job approval ratings ever, as the differences between Republican and Democratic views of the president stood at near-record highs, a new survey shows.
In 2011, 80 percent of Democrats approved of Obama’s job performance, compared to only 12 percent of Republicans, according to Gallup.
The gap of 68 percent is the fourth-highest on record, going all the way back to the Eisenhower administration, the pollster said.
Only President George W. Bush’s fourth, fifth and sixth years in office showed higher degrees of polarization.
It appears that the last decade has seen some of the most polarized views on the presidency ever. Put together, the Bush and Obama administrations account for the 7 most polarized years on record, and 8 of the top 10.
Despite all this, the polarization looks to get even worse in 2012.

As long as we’re fighting amongst ourselves, he’s safe.
Has anyone heard anything from Sheriff Joe’s volunteer posse that has been investigating this turd?
looks like that growth under his lip is getting bigger.
If we don’t come together a support the Republican candidate – whoever he may be – then we deserve another 4 years of Obama…that’s all I can say.
I’d say so, yeah.
Using the Presidency to start a Class War, using his surrogates to practically call for a Race War, crying “racism” on a daily basis, and of course doing all he can to force homosexulaity down our throats… yes, I would say he is polarizing.
The article doesn’t mention one important point:
It is INTENTIONAL.
I can’t wait till this fraudulent, lying, racist SOB is gone.
How’s that for polarized?
There’s no question the polarization will get worse since we have a president who is a confirmed leftwing ideologue that for the most part represents a small minority of Americans.
This man will not serve another term.
His color has nothing to do with this statement.
His inner color is yellow.
NOBAMA 2012
Americas second elected dictator Clinton being the first
It’s all Bush’s fault! 0bama felt pressured to out-achieve Bush.
After this election cycle, when every possible class/race warfare tactic is deployed by the Lib-Progs, the potential to put diviseness behind us and do what is best for the “country” will be near zero.
So if Obama is “re-elected”, divorce will follow.
Probably the best thing. Let the Blue cities/states do their own Socialist thing, implode, and then beg to re-join the Red states that will excel due to self-dependence, capitalism, growth, etc.
Can you imagine what the Red states could accomplish without the baggage of the EPA, the Fed, the Dept of Edumalacasheon, the IRS, etc?
Starting with energy independence…
Where will the Blue states get their energy, their food, their manufactured goods(many of which moved to Red states)?
Heard this one Yesterday:
PHYSICS:
If you run naked, around a tree, at a speed of 185,999 miles/second, there is a distinct possibility of fucking yourself. Or, you can vote for Obama to obtain the same effect
Like the prissy man pic.
Wrong. He IS the most polarizing President in American history. Name any other President who even comes close.
The polarization is intentional, and is preparation for the coming race / class war riots that will ensue when Barry is defeated in November.
People here are delerious. Its great entertainment reading your racist bile. Keep it up. The election is in the bag for Obama. Get with the program or get out of the country.
Willfully ignorant fools here. DIAF everyone.
@shockedattheracismhere
What does “delerious” mean? Or is that simply a word that a “racist” can’t understand?
@012 victory for Obama is all but assured. One reason: the right is crazy, looney, falt out insane with their GA court rulings, their birfer stuff, creeping socialism or is it communism or is it maxism I cant keep up. damn he’s so good at being evil. Oh..thats why you hate him because you ENVY him. Mr Obama, far from perfect, is smart, articulate and generally a decent person. All characteristics you and your candidates fail to posess.But by all means continue the Hate Parade. Moderates and independents are driven away from the gop by the likes of folks here. Thank You!
@shockedattheracismhere
Wow! Burnin’ up with hatred aren’t you?!
Please tell us all: What is life like when you have such bitter, burning hatred for anyone that disagrees with you? Life must really suck for you… Too bad.
So lemme se if I understand:
PRESIDENT Obama wants there to be a polarized US population. That somehow helps bring about class and race wars. He wants this to happen. And you think this is normal conclusions to derive from the PRESIDENTS actions?
Denounce this insanity or you own it.
falt out insane : birfer stuff : is it maxism
LOL… I’m in tears. Your only recourse is to claim it was on purpose.
@WiscoDave
love thine enemy. dude. it pisses them off!
@fubar
The poor soul is just crying out for help! I just wish I could reach out and dry the tears from those little puppy dog eyes…
Breaks my heart, it does, to see someone like this.
@WiscoDave
I’d like to see that
@fubar
Damn voyeur
Gallup? LOL!
The part I find utterly fascinating is he’s managed to become this polarizing with better Sherpa’s than Edmund Hillary had to summit Everest.
For Christ’s sake Obama’s more polarizing than GWBush & the media was working on that full time.
shockedattheracismhere is an angry “happy” admirer of Bradley unManning.
It’s official. Obama is a black president. All MSM, NAACP, liberals keep telling us he is black.
So he is not an American President! He is a “in your face whity” black president.
@ shocked:
Good to see you have such a command of the English language, as well as the facts about how effective “Dear Leader” is. I can comment about his qualities as a leader regardless of how he conducts his personal or family life. As far as his political views go, continuing to attend Jeremiah Wright’s church for 20 years tells me all I need to know.
Did you happen to catch the Zip Wire headline above?
“Obama’s $2 billion to Brazil ends up helping send oil to China”
Just one of his many gaffes.
How’s his foreign policy working with Iran?
The Arab states detest us more than they did 4 years ago.
That’s gotta make you really proud of the business/political acumen of Obamalamadingdong, huh?
Let me sum it up for you: Manchurian Candidate Naked Marxist Emperor.
Can you imagine what the real truth is? Coming from Politco (The Washington Post) this has already been spun by the left as it is.
