Yeah, I get it that you hated him vehemently from day one. You're just like the hard core Republicans who hate Obama
But the facts are the facts. I can't change history and neither can you.
President Obama's administration is crashing and burning because of the economy and he doesn't seem to know what to do about it.
Which is why he pivoted almost immediately to ObamaCare and then floundered a couple of months ago when ObamaCare came out the gate a disaster by trying to pivot to "Immigration Reform".
It ain't gonna work. The President's popularity will come roaring back IF the economy does. And today's huge drop in the stock market after bad reports from the auto industry on new car sales can't help.
As far as Bush goes...you have to remember that your extreme views don't represent the "general public".
If they did then MSNBC would be trouncing FNC in the ratings...instead of the other way around.

Old white people watch Fox News they wait for O'Reilly to come on to yell at the kids to get off his lawn. Old people vote more then others. This is why Fox News has a high ratings that kills the others.
The older generation that misses the old days, well those days are gone and so is the white house for the last eight years and another eight coming up!
You are confusing TV ratings with reality if the ratings mattered at all who would be in the white house right now? The general public put Obama back in by a healthy margin and they will do the same for a Democrat in 2016.
If Republicans would boycott Fox News and the tea party and stood for building the economy, jobs, less taxes. cut government waste and shrink the government they would win the white house hands down.
But instead Murdoch uses them for his wallet, pure evil genius that guy!
