Riot that falling green line in graph one means Obama's approval rating is going down not up and is down a bunch from the day he was sworn in directly opposite from what you have said.

Sigh ... Dell, now you are changing back to "approval rating from day he was sworn in"? Yeah, as we've talked about before, all Presidents approval ratings fall from the time they are elected.
You are not now maintaining you were talking about this, are you? Because you know darn well we were not. We were talking about his current approval rating the past couple of weeks.
You see the little glitches up and down? Those are the Rass weekly polls, and yeah, look at that big spike up there last week after he talked to the GOP Congressmen.
Here's the current (this week, which was taken during the past week) WSJ-NBC poll:

The President is doing fine in the polls. The individual parties are what people are most unhappy with. To maintain the President has a falling approval rating right now is wrong. It's very stable.
