Note that this is a CBS News poll. CBS: The network news that supports Obama all day long, promotes his agenda and that of even the furthest left-wing Democrats, and dismisses all conservatives and Republicans at all costs, including even their own credibility. Oddly enough, the Canadian state-owned CBC is not reporting on this CBS poll. See below for CBS polls that the state-owned CBC did decide to publish in their news pages in the recent past.
According to the CBS poll, complete on May 24, 2010:
• The president’s job approval rating has fallen to 47 percent, and, perhaps more crucially, Americans no longer say he shares their priorities for the country.
• Forty-eight percent trust the president to make the right decisions for the country. Forty-nine percent do not.
• Seven in ten Americans are dissatisfied with the way things are going in Washington, including 22 percent who say they are “angry” about the situation. Just 15 percent overall approve of the job being done by [Democratic Party-led] Congress.
• Just 13 percent say Mr. Obama’s economic programs, among them the massive economic stimulus package, have helped them personally. Eighteen percent say they have hurt, while two in three say there has been no effect.
• Asked if the government should have given assistance to banks, most Americans (67 percent) say no; just 27 percent support the bank bailout. They also oppose assistance for U.S. automakers, with 33 percent saying it was the right thing to do and 61 percent saying it was a mistake.
• More than half – 52 percent – say the controversial Arizona immigration law is about right. Twenty-eight percent say it goes too far, and 17 percent say it doesn’t go far enough.
• Public Opinion of Democratic Party at All-Time Low: Favorable views of the Democratic Party dropped 20 points in the past year to 37 percent, according to the poll, conducted May 20 – 24. Last month, the party’s favorability rating stood at 42 percent.
Fifty-four percent of Americans have a negative view of the Democrats, the poll shows.
