According to Gallup's April survey;
The only new president less popular was Bill Clinton, Obama's current approval rating of 56 percent is only one tick higher than the 55-percent approval Mr. Clinton had.....
Ronald Reagan topped the charts in April 1981 with 67 percent approval.
Perplexed about complaints over Mr. Obama's expansion of government, Newsweek editor Jon Meacham asked: "does no one listen during campaigns?"
It was these pundits who weren't paying attention during last year's campaign. In all three presidential debates, Mr. Obama promised to cut government spending and reduce the size of the deficit. He blamed the economic crisis on excessive deficits. At no time did candidate Barack Obama say that more deficit-spending was the solution.
It's no surprise the liberal media aren't anxious to point out that their darling is less popular than George W. Bush.
