Hey, if you want to contact someone CREATING the misery, call the White House switchboard.

Wait till labor day when he announces he's going all in on construction jobs and unemployment benefits. Unemployment benefits to save the country on Labor Day!

Not a dime will go towards paying down the debt or even partially funding Social Security. Ponzi don't play that game. With economic prowess like that just ignore the creditors calls and letters and our credit rating.

But in all fairness isn't this poll akin to 'Do you approve of the methods John Wayne Gacy used to killed his victims?'

26%. Since when has 26% of the population been black? Check out Water's comments this week?

Oh, they are of course terrible too. And have been. At one point a couple of years ago, Congress' approval was 9%.

But they don't all get elected at the same time (2/3 of the Senate is safe) and a national poll on the Congress as a whole doesn't make a good predictor for any particular congressman or senator in their district or state, respectively.

So, bottom line, the approval/disapproval poll is a better predictor for the president (in any year) than the Congress. His office is national, just like the poll, and there's only one of him.
