Fifty-six percent disapprove, the highest ever recorded!!
President Bush Job Approval
Updated Daily by Noon Eastern

Bush Job Approval
Strongly Approve 21%
Somewhat Approve 22%
Somewhat Disapprove 16%
Strongly Disapprove 40%


Thursday August 18, 2005--For the second straight day, just 43% of American adults approve of the way George W. Bush is performing his role as President. That's the lowest level ever recorded by Rasmussen Reports.

Fifty-six percent (56%) disapprove, the highest ever recorded.

The President's Approval Rating has fallen to 39% among women and 47% among men. Seventy-six percent (76%) of Republicans still give the President's Job Performance their Approval. That view is shared by 15% of Democrats and 35% of those not affiliated with either major political party.

1. That's why we should. . .
work to open a larger dialog with our reps about the possibility of impeachment.

I have yet to hear even our most vocal Senators mention the word. I hope we will soon!


Kicked!

3. I think if * was a Dem the press would clearly be piling on by now
Every reference to him should be as "the increasingly UNpopular pResident". We heard so much about his popularity. Now the glove is on the other foot, as they say.

7. Hell, they impeached Clinton
despite his high approval ratings.

Even if we don't have a majority in Congress now, even TALK about impeachment in Congress would be a huge blow to the chimp.

2. Strongly disapprove 3 points away from equaling both approves together!
I think that is quite significant, that the "strongly disapproves" catagory is virtually equal to the to the total "approves."

How low must the Repuke numbers go before warning bells really go off? Just shy of 1 in 4 pukes do not approve! Seems siginificant to me.
