(CNSNews.com) – Barack Obama defeated Sen. John McCain 56 percent to 43 percent among female voters in the 2008 presidential election, according to the network exit poll, and Obama\u2019s job performance as president won the support of 70 percent of women early in his tenure.<\/p>\n

\"\"But Gallup polling last week showed that only 41 percent of women now say they approve of the way Obama is handling his job as president. That is an all-time low–down from the previous low of 43 percent, which is what Obama\u2019s approval had been among women in each of the previous three weeks.<\/p>\n

Obama\u2019s approval has dropped 11 points among women over the past three months. In the last week of May, according to the Gallup poll, the president\u2019s approval among females was at 52 percent.<\/p>\n

Obama\u2019s approval among women peaked at 70 percent in the week of Jan. 26-Feb. 1, 2009, his first full week in office.<\/p>\n

He continued that God wasn't important, wasn't real, and our parents just used God to impose restrictions on us because they were inadequate to parent effectively. I knew then I was going to be involved in a war and that I would have to be in Jesus Christ's Army. Even then, I knew the United States of America would cease to exist without the vast majority of its citizens voluntarily submitting to the Perfect and Good Laws of the Holy Bible. I am a woman who loves the Lord Jesus Christ. I am tired of seeing our LORD denigrated from the school house to the White House. I search the Internet for items that ought to serve as a warning to Americans and Christians all through America, but the nation seems to be sleeping. Wake up America!
