If gas was 1.50/gal, he would be in the the seventies favorable.

Probably shouldn’t run for another term, then.

it could have been different.

regular reports to the people on the war on terror by the president

would have stood him in good measure

against the liberal media’s constant denigration of him and the war.

What was congresses approval rating again? Did they ever get into single digits like they were trying to do?

Popularity is overrated. The popular kids in high school end up washing cars and shoveling fries later in life. The unpopular kids end up loaded and with smoking hot spouses.

I remain confident that, like Reagan, history will judge Bush favorably.

Well President Bush isn’t as bad as Grover Cleveland. The guy was never elected, he just sort of showed up and nobody bothered to kick him out.

Any poll that has “CNN” in the front has got to be accurate! Sarcasm off! (just in case)!

70% disapproval in a CNN poll is a badge of honor.

"Poll: Bush most unpopular President in modern history"

"No president has ever had a higher disapproval rating in any CNN or Gallup poll;"

Soooooooooooooooooo... The birth of CNN polling is when "modern history" began!

While most of us admire him on the WOT, I would give him an unfavorable rating if I were polled. He has destroyed modern conservatism. The entire movement that began after Goldwater's defeat, and whose highpoint was the 1994 landslide, is now totally gone.

Do you remember the days when we actually talked about repealing the Department of Education? We were close. We had a movement based on federalism, individual liberty, and less government. W has thrown it all away. The very departments and entitlements we were so close to getting rid of he now expands faster than the dems ever did.

He could have done better on THE FENCE and immigration. However, twenty five from now he will be remembered as one of our better presidents.

I call BS on that poll. In fact, I call BS on all CNN/Gallup polls.

You gotta’ work pretty hard to alienate just about everybody. Of course, in his own mind he’s probably a man of principles, whatever they are, who “stayed the course,” whatever that was.

There’s an awful lot of fair criticisms that can be made of President Bush, but there’s even more mindless hatred. He is the Emmanuel Goldstein of the 21st century.
