President Obama's Gallup approval rating amongst liberal Democrats for April 2nd-8th is 87%.

93. LZ, please know this:

President Obama has several policies I really don't like. He's continued some of the really bad stuff that GWB put in place, and he's even cranked some of it up (drones being a good example). So I get really angry with the President sometimes, and I'm going to continue to get angry with him on occasion if he continues in the same vein.

But none of that means that any of the GOP contenders, or the criminals who were in office before Obama, can hold a candle to this president. They're boorish, they're boobs, they completely disrespect their constituency and count on them being stupid so that they can be led by the nose, and they have dishonorable goals, to say the very least. Romney, Santorum, Gingrich, and all the beginning set of clowns, are intellectually incurious. They have nothing to offer. Their "plans" turn to powdered dust upon even the most cursory of inspections, e.g. Paul Ryan's tax plan. They really do define a new low in American politics.

Can you allow for a world where good liberals get angry with the president for good reasons, but still understand that he's roughly 1700% better than ANY Republican would be in his position? It's a complex world, and we're all adults here. Would you consider being a little less binary where this set of issues is concerned?
