9. The real number has got to be in the low 20's, don't you think?
I can't imagine that one in three people really think he's doing a good job at this point.

10. Fux is reporting this?
Time for the RepubliCON leadership to make the trip to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. and tell the little monkey what's what.

20. Wow. Straining as hard as they can
and 36% is the best Faux can muster up for their boy? Not good news for the Bushies.
The mid-terms are looming.
Expect more "terra, terra, terra".

30. And it's 36% of 'likely voters'
If I were a Repug running for re-election this year, I'd start looking for another line of work.

8. Do you know whose poll that was?
I know some of them usually have him a bit higher than what's real! I'm happy to hear 33%, but I'd love to hear he was REALLY lower than that!

Bush's approval is dropping like a mobster in the Jersey harbor.

29. 19% who said they voted for Bush in 2004 plan to vote Democrat
19% is enough to throw a lot of races to the Democrats.

12. In case of low ratings, break the glass cover and pull the terrorism alarm
Once the sheeple are properly feared-up, then you may proceed with your destruction of the country.

I think Bush has these instructions taped on the back of some door....

17. Does this include the Terrah Bump?
AMAZING how his polls have historically ticked upward during Terrah alerts. Like no one stops to ask why "Mr. War On Terror" hasn't stopped the terror.

32. Mike Malloy (I think) says there's a "Fascist Third" in our country
that will support the man no matter what. I believe it.

21. Fasten your seatbelts -- we're in for a bumpy ride
Insanity, Coultergeist, Rushbo and co. are just getting warmed up. You think they're scrambling and shrieking now, just wait until he sinks into the 20s ... The sirens will be wailing!

22. It should be called a "Disapproval Rating". *'s disapproval rating is 67%
and rising!

25. The terror trick doesn't work anymore--only emphasizes *'s incompetence
even more... I mean, here we still have this great big terror threat--yet, this is the same man who wanted to sell our ports to the UAE. This is the same man who has done nothing to seal our borders. If he really thinks terrorism plots will help his poll ratings he really is in for a major surprise.

33. I believe you're correct
the Bushies are on a teeter totter now with the "terra" scare your pants off stuff.
The more they bring up "you're all gonna die!" the more it emphasizes that the Iraq war ain't workin' to rid the world of "terra".
Of course this is a complex issue. But the Bushian followers aren't complex. That's why you'd hear people disagree with every single one of Bush's election year points on abortion or stem cells, etc....but say they'd vote for him "because of his stand against terrorists". Well, guess what? We've got a bigger terrorist problem now than we did before.
And, finally, the Bushie policies are starting to get scrunity from the average American.
They're starting to see what we've seen all along.
You don't fight "terra" by creating more terrorists with your "bring it on!" mentality.
