A lot of people in this country were disgusted with Clinton and pardons-gate when Bush took over, so that probably contributed to feeling good about the changeover.

Honestly, I'm not sure who is more in charge of this country--Obama or Nancy Pelosi.
I think Pelosi is working quickly towards becoming the name and face that the GOP uses to rally the troops (the same role that Gingrich came to play for the democrats). |

No, I simply showed how their numbers at this phase of their presidencies were similar. You extended it to the absurd, "Dude".

Making, as it were, a "direct comparison."

You treat the supplied pieces of evidence as though they suggest a self-evident thought: that Americans are becoming disillusioned now that they are seeing the Obama machine in action. Another person (myself among them) may look at those numbers and hear another message: that the numbers tell us absolutely nothing this early in the game. As long as evidence can have such diverse interpretations, you are not absolved of your responsibility of stating your thesis. Unless, of course, you don't really care if anybody follows your train of thought. If that happens to be the case, however, one must wonder why you're still talking. I doubt you believe you will win anybody over this late in the game; likely, you just like hearing the sound of your own voice. Either way, I'll not apologize for your insufficient command of written English.

In any case, I'm genuinely sorry to have gotten you all riled up, so I apologize to you for the pea-brained comment. (Cali still has a pea-brain though). You and I had no beef before, and I really don't need any new adversaries. Not that there are many left around anymore. Cheers.
