FOX POLL: BUSH - 36% Approval

[kpete]

In addition, the new poll finds that the president's job approval rating has slipped a couple of points and currently matches an earlier low recorded back in November. Today, 36 percent of Americans say they approve of the job George W. Bush is doing as president and 53 percent disapprove.

1. just a "couple of points"

:rofl:

[saltpoint]

2. Is this poll prior to today's Plame leak authorization announcement?

And since it's FOX, we should maybe knock off another 4 or 5 points anyway.

7. it would have to be. the delay in collating and collecting would be 1-2

days, at least.


watch the others fall to 30 or below.

[saltpoint]

17. Wow -- 30 r below would really make things tense over at the

Bush White House, wouldn't it.

That Mars initiative might have to be put on hold ...

[ChairmanAgnostic]

22. remember that farside comic strip? with the dryer and the dog, and

all the signs and arrows saying "Cat Fud?"
And the dog going, "oh please, oh please, oh please, oh please?"

[saltpoint]

24. I do remember it! O yes let it happen!

Bush is sinking sinking sinking, and the next couple months should see either a take-this-you-assholes assault on Iran or a further disintegration of Republican support in Congress.

And I don't think either outcome is especially good for Bush.

3. Keep in mind that the Fox polls are usually 5 pts higher than average

I figured this out - Fox rigs their polls so they're usually 5 points higher than average, CNN rigs their polls so they're 2 points higher, and MSNBC is usually 2 - 3 points higher than average.

4. He would have to eat a live baby on TV to go below 30%

Even then, the Bushbots would still find an excuse. He will never go below 30%, no matter what he or his administration does. They control too much of the media and more.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

9. what did that Louisiana pol once say, you gotta catch me

with a live boy or a dead girl before I lose this election? Former governor, if I recall.

12. Huey Long. Inspiration for "All the King's Men" by Robert Penn Warren

What a character. Dangerous, bright, demagogic, passionate about government as a way to help people. A fascinating figure in American history; eventually assassinated. Thanks for reminding us of Another Time.

19. Ever listen to Randy Newman's

"Good Old Boys" album? Newman before he became a Disney franchise. Songs inspired by Huey Long.

[Faygo Kid]

21. Thanks, Barbara. If you say so, I am there.

*whew*. Stanwyck.

[stanwyck]

23. Love that movie

though I'm no longer wearing the ankle bracelet.

[Faygo Kid]

25. Don't DO that to me. Mean and uncalled for.

And you loved every bit of it. That, to me, was sexy. Very. Not flagrantly, or obviously, but surely. Oh well, perhaps someday you will cook for me at your home in Connecticut. Yum.

[stanwyck]

26. You bet.

I'll close my eyes and flip your pancake.

[npincus]

5. down 3 points from the last one.

and taken before today's news hit.

[sable302]

6. krikey

expect the big 'two nine' next week, especially after today.

[linazelle]

8. If Fox admits 36, then it's actually 26. n/t

10. The freeps aren't happy at all with the guest worker program...

...several people over there reacted with "B.O.H.I.C.A." posts ("Bend Over Here It Comes Again")...

Others said they were "sold down the river"...

So let's see what the NEXT Fox poll reveals.

11. I'm starting to wonder if maybe Faux has written Boosh off

and they might be trying to buy back some of the credibility they have lost over the last several years.

[Wickerman]

14. THat, or their trying to move away from Bush**

for the sake of their other Rethug 06 candidates.

[jzodda]

13. Wait till Brit Hume gets hold of the data

He will say "O we all know its how you ask the question" and find some other spin to re-assure the dittoheads.

[rpgamerd00d]

15. In "real world numbers", I think thats, like, 4%

[LeftNYC]

16. Im waiting for the Fox News

story about how Bush's low approval rating is good for the administration like civil war being good for Iraq.

[stanwyck]

18. Wait till next week

once the Libby/Plame story works its way down to the freeper audience.
Drip. Drip. Drip.

[SoCalDem]

20. Damn you, kpete
