I have been saddened and angered by many of Obama's decisions, but I would still answer "approve" to a Gallup poll. I would consider an answer of "disapprove" to be equivalent to telling the pollster that Obama is too liberal. After all, that's the way the MSM interprets "disapprove". Now if a pollster asked me if Obama's policies were "too liberal", "too conservative", or "about right", I would definitely answer "too conservative".
