Well the majority of Americans appear to disagree....
• Fifty-six percent of Americans disapprove of the way Bush is handling the economy and 41% approve. That is the highest disapproval number and lowest approval number of the Bush presidency.
• Fifty-five percent of Americans disapprove of the way Bush is handling the situation in Iraq, and 42% approve. Again, the approval number is the lowest and the disapproval number is the highest of any survey Gallup has taken on the question, dating back to late October 2002. On foreign affairs overall, Bush gets 42% approval and 53% disapproval — again, a record low on approval and a record high on disapproval.
Think your boy can go into the high 30's for approval ratings? I'm thinking of a about a 38 or lower by Nov - he's not going to get voted out of office he's going to be laughed out of office.
Riddle me this batman - what does it mean when the majority of the "polled" Americans agree or disagree with anything?
The Americans these polsters poll seem to flip-flop every month.
And really, are they experts in anything? What does the average American know about running an economy?
Diddly squat! All the average American knows, is that Gas prices are higher, Americans are dying in Iraq, and congress is spending Billions on a country most of them would not even know existed or where it was on the map, until the nightly news plastered it all over the TV... EVERY DAY FOR THE LAST 10 years... and I bet you a pay check there are still a lot of Americans who couldn't tell you what Contenant Iraq is even on!
Ok my point.... polls and American opinion are BS - it changes with their pocket book and what happens to be on TV that night.
ok that's my cynical 2 cents.
