The Chimperor still losing ground - WSJ reports he's at 29 percent
:rofl:

Bush’s Approval Rating Drops

President Bush’s job-approval rating has fallen to its lowest mark of his presidency, according to a new Harris Interactive poll. Of 1,003 U.S. adults surveyed in a telephone poll, 29% think Mr. Bush is doing an “excellent or pretty good” job as president, down from 35% in April and significantly lower than 43% in January.

Roughly one-quarter of U.S. adults say “things in the country are going in the right direction,” while 69% say “things have pretty seriously gotten off on the wrong track.” This trend has declined every month since January, when 33% said the nation was heading in the right direction. Iraq remains a key concern for the general public, as 28% of Americans said they consider Iraq to be one of the top two most important issues the government should address, up from 23% in April. The immigration debate also prompted 16% of Americans to consider it a top issue, down from 19% last month, but still sharply higher from 4% in March.

The Harris poll comes two days after a downbeat assessement of Bush in a New York Times/CBS News poll. The Times, in analyzing the results, said “Americans have a bleaker view of the country’s direction than at any time in more than two decades.”

10. Unpopular is NOT ENOUGH. I want him OUT.
I know, I know, come fall gain control of congress and maybe impeach him maybe maybe maybe. Unpopular helps, IF enough repub congress reps do not support him, but it is not enough for me. Way not enough. Go away little man and take all your people with you. We have a big job cleaning up your messes.

15. Well...
I'd say he's a lot closer to being out now. Even the Freepers at that "other" site hate him now.

20. HOW is he out? Unpopular, yes, but still in power, still hurting us all.
Please, I want him out, but I see him only unpopular. I really want them gone and don't see it yet. If you can show me how he is out, I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

22. Why does this make me nervous?
He's gotta be thinking in that tiny little brain of his that his ratings were highest after airplanes plowed into three buildings and a field. I'm afraid of what he might do in last ditch effort at salvation from forever being branded as The Worst President in the History of Mankind.

Other than that :woohoo: .

28. He's going to break the 27 barrier
and go below Nixon.

Then, will the rePubs go to the White House and tell him
"it's time"?
