    I love this too - in case you weren't convinced, Rasmussen Reports also offers this chart showing the same thing on the same page.

    http://www.rasmussenreports.com/…

    But hey wait a sec - this one actually shows the same numbers Gallup and every other pollster does. Obama's approval having fallen but only down to 45%.

    I bet if you squished the Gallup chart into the same space, they would be almost identical in fact. So what the hell is this? Rasmussen is basically saying his other poll, the one conversatives like to post everywhere, is not true.

    But the difference being - and I love this - he leaves out the disapprove numbers only from this graphic, so all you see is this massive downward trend.

    You almost have to admire whoever thinks this stuff up, its pretty damn good propaganda. I mean yeah, liberals will bitch and whine about Rasmussen being biased, but no one in the media ever talks about it. And he commissions way more polls than any other company.
