When will *'s approval rating drop below 40%
He's close, very close, but not there yet (at least not according to the "official" numbers.)

When he does, and he will, I hope every piece of shit repuke in congress rides his flaming coattails into oblivion.

Poll: Bush Job Approval Dips to New Low By WILL LESTER, Associated Press Writer
Fri Jun 10, 9:32 AM ET

About one-third of adults, 35 percent, said they think the country is headed in the right direction, while 43 percent said they approve of the job being done by Bush. Just 41 percent say they support his handling of the war, also a low-water mark.

17. Ok, yeah that's the same one...
His job appproval is above 40% in that poll. The one that's below 40% is "is the country headed in the right direction." Now, that's an interesting statistic in itself because it means there are 8% of respondants who believe the country is headed in the wrong direction, but approve of the way bush is doing his job. Boggles the mind.

4. We should hold a candle light vigil
When it reaches below 40%, we should let off fireworks.

7. Many people have
estimated that there is a hard core forty percent of the population that would support * if he was shown murdering someone on live TV. And I'm afraid that in my cynical moments, I agree.

13. 40% is a good bottom line estimate.
There are just too many sheeple and fundies who will never accept the truth about that piece of excrement--no matter what.

9. I hope he wasn't planning on retiring on his "political capital"
I would say he is just about tapped out. A few more points and the rats start jumping ship.

16. Raz has him at 51% Approval
http://www.rasmussenreports.com/Bush_Job_Approval.htm
With whores like this we will never see him at 40% so who can tell when he actually reaches that mark. If he hasn't already
