ORLANDO, Fla. - President Bush, his approval ratings at a record low, acknowledged Wednesday that war in Iraq and rising gas prices have created "battle fatigue" among many Americans.
That anxiety, Bush said, has settled over much of the nation as people worry about whether the United States will succeed in Iraq and how they will afford to fill up their tanks.
"There's a sense of disquiet because of the war in Iraq," said Bush, in an hour-long interview with the Orlando Sentinel and six other Florida newspapers.

Yep. The N.A.U. - North American Union. Another step on the path toward One World Government.
Everybody needs long-term goals, don'cha know. Utopia is everyone's dream. Isn't it?
You get an H-2 for this post.
A poll conducted by whom with what agenda?
You should feel proud to be called a kook by sinkspur. Actually I will amend my previous remark to include him.
The Bush Alamo now is down to Sinkspur, serious investors and apocalyptic believers that the end is near and war will bring salvation.
"Sense of". What about actually invading your privacy. Oh, he's not, so you couln't say that. But you get that FEELING.. There certainly are a group of people who go by FEELINGS.. and most of them don't post here often, or regularly, which is why I guess, that you are new here. Welcome.
>>the study I looked at
A poll conducted by whom with what agenda?<<
Gallup I think, I'll take a look.
You've missed my point entirely, I didn't say anything about Bush arriving in NO within minutes of Katrina passing thru ... that's not expected of him. However, by positioning himself in Washington, or at NORAD, instead of his vacation ranch in Crawford, it would have squelched any charges by the 'Rats and liberal MSM that he didn't grasp the enormity of the situation. Instead he pulled a real rookie blooper, boarded AF1 on the morning immediately after Katrina hit and flew out to a fund raiser in San Diego. Not smart ...
The whole party and the party bots are in denial.
NORAD? It was a hurricane , not a nuclear bomb. We get them every year. You want him wringing his hands everytime there is a storm?
I apologize for yelling, it just getting extremely irritating for me for people to keep blaming him.
50% of the people don't like him and voted against him anyway, so we can discount that much of the ~65% negative response. Of the remaining ~15%, how many would you figure consider immigration paramount?
Give me a break.......
How many were dead?
Ok. And does he continue to fight for ANWR? Is he out there fighting to repeal gas taxes and energy surcharges? No. He wants investigations into oil companys. Brilliant.
Please don't come on here and express your ignorance of the subject. At the very least read up on it...before posting.
But he is not going to say the immigration word because if he did then he would have to admit what is already obvious, he is flipping off the American people.
He is determined to have his way about immigration and he don't give a damn what the people say or what is best for the party or the country.
He's going to push his Globalist agenda and give the rich business community what they want and we can lump it or like it.
He's the Ki...er President and he knows what is best for his serv...ah..er..people.
No he doesn't. He threw that out there to shut the liberals and the media up. And it worked.
Nobody's investigating oil companies; there's nothing to investigate.
No Mr. President...Those are the reasons liberals are ticked. Me...it's all about immigration and spending. Hellloooo!
GWB: "It's because of... Hey, is that an elephant?"
Reporter: "No, Mr. President, there are no elephants in this room"
GWB: "OK, for a minute I thought I saw an elephant. The reason my polls are low is because..."
