How does Bush remedy this problem to get the morons behind him again? Will
he have his Saudi buddies take down the Empire State Building this time? He
may just try raising the terror alert level again like he did before the
elections but people are catching on to that since the alert hasn't been
raised since the elections. Even the slow redumblican voters have picked up
on that scam.

Poll: Bush's Job Approval Dips to New Low
By WILL LESTER, Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON - As the war in Iraq drags on, President Bush's job
approval and the public's confidence in the direction he's taking the
nation are at their lowest levels since The Associated Press-Ipsos
poll began in December 2003.
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.
"There's a bad mood in the country, people are out of sorts," said
presidential scholar and senior fellow at the Brookings Institution
Charles Jones, who lives near Charlottesville, Va. "Iraq news is daily
bad news. The election in Iraq helped some, and the formation of the
government helped some, but dead bodies trump the more positive news."
California retiree Carol Harvie was quick to mention Iraq when asked
about how Bush was doing his job.
"I don't think he's read his history enough about different countries
and foreign affairs," said Harvie, a political independent who lives
near San Diego, a region with several military bases. "Anything they
try to do in Iraq has spelled trouble. I think he bit off more than he
can chew."
Support for Bush's handling of domestic issues remained in the high
30s and low 40s in the latest AP-Ipsos poll.
Thirty-seven percent support Bush's handling of Social Security,
while 59 percent disapprove. Those numbers haven't budged after more
than four months of the president traveling the country to sell his
plan to create private accounts in Social Security.
Support for his handling of the economy was at 43 percent.
Congress gets even lower grades than Bush, a potentially troubling
development for those seeking re-election next year.
Only about three in 10 polled said they approve of the job being done
by Congress, while 64 percent disapprove.
"Presidents who are low in the polls have a hard time getting Congress
to go along with them," said Charles Franklin, a political scientist
at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. "He has to persuade the people
in Congress to follow his legislative agenda and they're all worried
about 2006."
