Newsweek reports a new Washington Post-ABC News poll finds Bush's approval rating at a new low. 60% disapprove of his job performance.

Daily Kos reports:

a Gallup poll out today finds that over 6 in 10 Americans are "critical" of Bush's role in the Plame controversy. Of those polled, 21% believe he did something illegal, 42% think he acted unethically, while 28% say he did nothing wrong.

    I believe this is the WaPo / ABC poll writeup. You can see the historical trends, and results for questions that didn't make it to the article. Fun for math junkies and nit-pickers. Does anybody actually care when I dig up these more detailed poll reports, or am I wasting electrons?

    Thanks, Roy. Not only do 60 percent disapprove of the way GWB is doing his job, 47 percent strongly disapprove.

    Have you seen any sign that he's stopped the bleeding yet? I haven't. It's not like they're real smart. They've got to be the dumbest smart guys that ever lived. What did tommy franks say about feith? That description pretty well fits the lot of 'em to a T.

    28% are freepers then? Shudder. Thank God O'Reilly is making the fascists looks bad. They had a chance for a while. Bungling Bush and shot-gun Cheeny along with Big Mouth O'Reilly ruined it though. Their only hope is the Supremes and the tough on crime movement. Everywhere else, they are sunk and out of the game.

    Well, they've still got an outside chance with the "Stay home. There's no difference between the parties. Vote for Nader, that'll show 'em. Fight the good fight. Pyrrhic victories for principles." crowd. They could still bail 'em out. After all, without them, they wouldn't be on the throne in the first place.
