Bush falls in polls, again


Under the headline "Poll: Good News Fails to Boost Bush's Job Approval", Time Magazine reports the obvious: That we hate George Bush and his little henchmen.

A spate of good news at home and abroad has so far failed to boost how Americans feel about [worthless chimp] Bush's job performance. Bush's approval rating slipped to 35% in a TIME poll taken this week, down from 37% in March (and 53% in early 2005). Only 33% of Americans in the survey said they approved of Bush's handling of the situation in Iraq, vs. 35% in March, and 47% in March 2005. His management of the U.S. economy lost supporters, too, as 36% approved, compared with 39% three months earlier. Bush's handling of the war on terror saw a slight gain in support, from 44% to 45%.

Here's a tip to the mainstream media: the war isn't over, the economy still sucks, people are still not making more money, and the republican party is still extremist and corrupt. Hint: that's why the polls are where they are. Talking them up does not seem to be working, so why don't you get with the program and tell us the real news: that Americans are sick and tired of this man and everything he stands for?
