Guest guest Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 S Mon, 22 Aug 2005 14:33:22 -0700 (PDT) [impeachGeorgeWBush] Bush less popular than Nixon duringWatergate (Watch out! With these low approval numbers it will probably mean another 9/11 style attack somewhere in the USA to scare the people into supporting this clown again. M.) Bush approval numbers are now in the 30s!!!! Via [Atrios], an American Research Group poll released today shows that George Bush [has dropped to staggering new lows:] George W. Bush's overall job approval ratings have dropped from a month ago even as Americans who approve of the way Bush is handling his job as president are turning more optimistic about their personal financial situations according to the latest survey from the American Research Group. Among all Americans, 36% approve of the way Bush is handling his job as president and 58% disapprove. When it comes to Bush's handling of the economy, 33% approve and 62% disapprove. Among Americans registered to vote, 38% approve of the way Bush is handling his job as president and 56% disapprove, and 36% approve of the way Bush is handling the economy and 60% disapprove. For a little perspective, recall that Richard Nixon's approval rating in the summer of 1973 (when the Watergate scandal was in full swing) [was 39%.] Compared to Bush, that's downright [sunny]. http://thinkprogress.org 2005.
