WAPO/ABC POLL - Disapproval of Congressional Republicans now at 70%...

Disapproval of congressional Republicans’ budget wrangling after a weeklong shutdown has shot up to 70 percent, with 51 percent disapproving “strongly,” according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.

At the same time, President Obama’s approval rating has ticked up due to improved marks among moderate Democrats and independents. No group, however, earns positive marks for their handling of budget negotiations overall.

And the good thing, the teaparty Republicans will ignore the facts and continue to lead the gop to oblivion. ..

If I remember right, 28% of teapublican true believers would goose step behind a fearless leader if they promised to bring fascism to America. So what this means is the GOP has managed to alienate everyone but the purest tea bagger zealots.

That number has probably gone up. This guy has to be the dumbest motherfucker to ever serve in congress. As for the stupid fucking idiots who picked this POS to be their rep, I don't know how they manage. Does somebody remind them to breathe?
