any wonder why people are suspicious of our election?
Poll: Bush, Congress Approval Slumping
WASHINGTON - President Bush's standing with the public is slumping just three months into his final term, but Americans have an even lower regard for the job being done by Congress. Bush's job approval is at 44 percent, with 54 percent disapproving. Only 37 percent have a favorable opinion of the work being done by the Republican-controlled Congress, according to an AP-Ipsos poll.
Bush's job approval was at 49 percent in January, while Congress was at 41 percent.

The number supporting Bush's handling of some domestic issues dipped between March and April, to 42 percent for the economy and 38 percent for issues like education and health care, according to the poll conducted for The Associated Press by Ipsos-Public Affairs.Support for the president's approach to his top domestic priority, Social Security, remained at 36 percent, while 58 percent oppose it.

Young adults are supposed to benefit the most from Bush's Social Security proposal, but a majority of that group, 54 percent, opposes the president on that issue.

"I don't know that the exit strategy in Iraq is completely thought out. And I don't know that all the Social Security options have been explored," said Scott Lindsey, a Republican who lives around Memphis, Tenn. "But I think President Bush is doing a good job."

So, the people that are still behind bush don't like anything that he's doing, but think he's doing a good job, regardless!
How did this clown win the election? The obvious answer is that he didn't, but who knows, maybe there are enough fools in this country who will vote for someone that they don't like.
In any case, are these numbers record breaking for a re-elected president?
Something really doesn't seem to add up!
