how low can he go?!

Bush, GOP Approval Ratings Hit New Lows
Just 36 Percent of the Public Approves of the President's Job Performance
WASHINGTON (April 7) - President Bush's approval ratings hit a series of new lows in an AP-Ipsos poll that also shows Republicans surrendering their advantage on national security -grim election-year news for a party struggling to stay in power.

By comparison, Presidents Bill Clinton and Ronald Reagan had public approval in the mid 60s at this stage of their second terms in office, while Dwight Eisenhower was close to 60 percent, according to Gallup polls. Richard Nixon, who was increasingly tangled up in the Watergate scandal, was in the high 20s in early 1974.

As bad as Bush's numbers may be, Congress' are worse.

Just 30 percent of the public approves of the GOP-led Congress' job performance, and Republicans seem to be shouldering the blame.

And yet this article still includes some repug hack claiming that the Dems "don't have much of a plan", even though one was just unveiled. Of course, the media doesn't report on that, but it doesn't negate the truth of the matter.
And what's this line "republicans seem to be shouldering the blame"?!?! "Seem to be"?!?!?! Of course they are to blame! They are in charge! Who else can you blame?!
Even in an article stating that no one approves of the conservatives, there is still an absurd conservative bias! Just crazy!
