This Week's Results are In

Startling trends ignore conventional thinking.

The Nickie Goomba weekly Presidential Tracking Poll for Tuesday shows that 17% of the nation's voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is spending his vacation. Forty-one percent (61%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Vacation Approval Index (VAI) rating of -44. Forty-eight percent (48%) of College-age voters were unable to identify the President by name.

Only nineteen percent (19%) of likely voters over 40 are confident that members of Congress could find their own "hind ends with a spatula". If Americans could vote to keep or replace the entire Congress, 41% of tall voters would throw out all the legislators and start over again. Almost 79% of Conservatives would vote to have their elected representatives sprayed with corn oil and fed live to ferrets.

The Presidential Marxism/Racism Index is calculated by subtracting the number who consider Obama a Marxist from the number who Obama considers racist. It is updated daily at 11:30 a.m. Pacific (sign up for free daily e-mail update). Updates also available on Twitter and Facebook.

Overall, 62% of voters say they consider the President at least somewhat of a Marxist. That’s the highest level of perceived Marxism yet measured for Obama. The President considers fifty-three percent (53%) of Democrats racist. Ninety-one percent (91%) of Republicans are considered racist. As for those not affiliated with either major party, Obama considers them 100% racist.

LOL, that was amusing. Thanks for the chuckle.

The diversity in the polling made my heart warm.

I wonder what Dear Leader will do for a living in 3.5 years? God knows, he's already stolen enough to live comfortably into his dotage.

You really are in it for the LULZ aren't you?

100% of Rhod strongly approves of the way Ted Kennedy is spending his time off from the Senate.

After listening to Clair McCaskill speak yesterday, I'm not even sure she would know what a spatula is.

Rhod said...

It's Italian for saliva. Ask Goomba.

This is hilarious. I love it, especially the part about feeding the politicians to the ferrets. Priceless.

Well done, Kemosabe. Our infatuation with polls brings up a whole slew of other interesting inquiries.

When the house is on fire, what kind of info do you seek? 87% of escaping residents felt it was warmer in their part of the house? 100% of sane people ran for their lives so their butts weren't singed.

100% of people paying attention can see that Obama is an unmitigated disaster. Where did all the people that voted for him (other than Bob Beckel) go?

Obama has quadrupled the deficit that we had under that supposedly drunken sailor Pres. Bush ... in less than one year!!

Taliban is on the march. Iran is close to having the bomb. Suicide bombers are attacking again in Iraq. Oh, joy.

100% of people with their heads outside their colons know that even McCain would be much better than ... wait ... yeah, still, every one knows that we picked the worst possible guy at this time to be president.

More numbers please so we may feel better.

He'll become a spokesman for the far Left of the Dummo party.

Chup, we're just trying to keep it interesting. And, of course, silliness is a lot of fun.

Rhod, I suspect he's busy at the moment trying to pry Reagan's fist from his stomach.

Bill, Rhod... a spatula is part of the rotator cuff, as I recall from my medical studies.

X, feeding politicians to ferrets is a comedy staple. Like the spit take.

DC, I may still have to disagree with you on McCain. I couldn't imagine that one politician, even Bob Dole, could have disappointed me more.

Woody, take a deep breath and read the graphs. The truth is in the numbers.

Thanks, Chick. I tried to keep it simple. Sometimes the media complicates the basic truths.

Nanc, what other color could he turn?? Although, in honor of earth's climate change (and the Socialists who promote it) he could go green.

I love all the graphs. Reminds me of my favorite math teachers through the years.
