Obama term average to date = 48%

Job approval high:
George W. Bush September 2001 = 90
Obama three day HIGH average = 69

I guess it is all in how you look at the numbers.
I don't mean to demean "W' but his approval rate went down, and never went back up. Presidential Approval Ratings -- George W. Bush | Gallup Historical Trends

The line on Obama that appears here is that he is the worse president ever. If that was the case, his approval rate would be in 30's. Congress approval rate in the 20's. That is an approval. If you want to talk about the worse Congress ever in the last 7+ years, you would probably have a good case. Congress is both parties. So, no one gets a pass.
