Rasmussen has Bush today at 38 percent:
Zuck Fogby!
"President's Approval Rating 2 1/2 Times Higher Than Congress'"
If they were just more liberal, they’d be at 100%!
Republicans act like real Republicans, they win.
Democrats act like real Democrats, they lose.
But the Beltway is so out of touch, they don’t know it.
Well, 29% is pretty low for a president. But 11% favorable for Congress? Wow. That’s a really rotten number.
It seems the speaker and the majority leader are doing a superb job running the Congress into the ground?
This is really odd. Normally congress gets low marks when it actually does something. This congress has done nothing and is still getting low ratings. Unless they are going to cut my taxes (highly unlikely) I give them accolades for accomplishing nothing. The alternative could be disasterous.
And if Bush had not been so bass ackwards on illegal aliens, his approval would be at least 15 higher then it is now.
Considering this is Zogby, a liberal that slants polls for liberals, I can bet you can add 5 points to GW’s ratings and subtract 5 points from the democratic controlled Congress. All you have to is look at Zogby’s talking points, post-katrina, Iraq and the econmy getting worse. As a conservative, I know of no one personally that is talking Katrina and blaming the government and from where I sit the economy is still looking pretty good. Zogby picked three sound bites all used to illicit disgust towards republicans.
What does Rasmussen have to say about Congress’ Approval Rating? Nothing at all that I can find after November 2006.
What a nebulous statement! There's a world of difference between "fair" and "poor".
Dingy Harry and Queen Nan had better start worrying more about their dem controlled Congress and less about the president, he has a nearly 3 times better approval rating.
“What does Rasmussen have to say about Congress’ Approval Rating?”Maybe he will not post polls that fall within the margin of error. I.E. + - 3 points and their approval is 3% or less. ;)
What do they expect? Today, the Senate debated whether or not the prisoners at Gitmo should have access to our court system, giving them the right to sue our Commanders in the field. Our Constitution is for US citizens, not commbatants or people from other countries. To debate something like this is a waste of time and used only to diminish the power of OUR Constitution. These people are fools to think the American people don’t see this. No wonder they are at 11%. Get rid of them and replace them with those that believe in our country.
If Zogby has the president down to just 29 percen then you have to add at least 10 percent to his approval rating as Zogby always oversamples the left
I think the Congressional Rats are going to be returned to minority status in the next election.
Congress is trying to sneak through another amnesty - the DREAM act.
They’re afraid of open and fair debate on it so they’ve attached it as an amendment to a defense bill (troop funding bill).
Could happen. Couple lifetimes till votin’ time...
I’d go as far as at least 7 points to the president’s approval rating and substract the same amount from congres, but that is just my opinion
The MSM/pollsters have convinced the Democrats that the entire country wants out of Iraq now, no matter what.
The Dims in the House and Senate believe their poll numbers will go up if they “bring the troops home” and will do whatever it takes to ensure American defeat. This, too, will backfire on them...but will the Republicans get their act together in time for ‘08?
