The Incredibly Unpopular President

How long?
How long do we have to wait for the media to truly acknowledge how unpopular George W. Bush is?

A new Gallup Poll reflects further erosion in President George W. Bush’s job approval rating, continuing the slow but steady decline evident throughout the year so far. The poll — conducted Aug. 22-25 — puts Bush’s job approval rating at 40% and his disapproval rating at 56%. Both are the most negative ratings of the Bush administration.

You wouldn’t know this to watch the media. It’s wall to wall laudatory coverage of the popular wartime president as he chops wood, and makes straw man speeches against hippies. George Bush is getting away with what Bill Clinton never could: a drop in popularity that the media refuses to acknowledge.

    You know… It amazes me that anyone would have any respect for any person that has nothing but contempt for everyone else. But it is particularly amazing that anyone would condone this behavouir in the President of what is (laughably) the greatest Nation on Earth! I would think that the President of the USA would be someone Americans would be proud of, not someone who has no skills, and is a foul mouthed drunk!

    I’m much more proud of people such as Cindy Sheehan. She is standing up for what she believes in, and is doing it in a totaly peaceful and in an eminently composed fashion.

    It’s like comparing a stale beer with gold. They may both look golden, but only one has any value and won’t make you sick! LOL

    Cheers.
