What is the rate for returning these incumbents - something like 90%. Yea, they are really worried about that poll.

A record-low 10% of Americans approve of the job Congress is doing, down from 13% in January and the previous low of 11%, recorded in December 2011.

Those idiots out there have fallen for it hook, line, and sinker!

Yes, It seems that we have lost the “United States as a Republic” battle.

We have so many corrupt Democrats in office that it seems to be insurmountable. We have so many corrupt Republicans in office that it seems insurmountable.

When both parties are corrupt and the people (over 50%) are benefiting from their largess...can there be any change?

Compromise. The concession that keeps on taking.

By comparison that should be about 5 times the job approval rating of The Won.

These morons keep insisting that they are "doing the job they were elected to do." Nothing could be farther from the truth.With their approval nown down to 10%, I suppose they can keep pretending everything is fine, they continue to do whatever they feel like, and nobody will notice.

On the bright side, the 2012 elections, for most of them will look like happy hour.

There must be a way to prevent their collecting their pensions for the damage done to all American taxpayers, for decades, now.

Gallup: Congress' Job Approval at New Low of 10%

And, you notice how worried they are about it, too!! Yep, they're losing a LOT of sleep over this.

/sarc

Here's the deal: I have posted this before - WE are the insane ones because WE keep doing the same thing over and over (reelecting the same people to the same offices in Washington) and, each time WE do, WE expect a different result!!!

If WE want to change the behavior of our electd representatives in Washington, WE must FIRST change our own behavior and STOP voting for incumbents!!!

In my district, we had taxation without representation for over a year, while the leftists paraded their puppet around. And, they did it because of the idiots who worship politicians and “the state,” instead of God, family, country.

These polls are foolish - we see them year in and year out but the reality is that somewhere around 80% to 90% of incumbents get re-elected in both houses of congress.

They should save their time and money when the results so clearly fly in the face of reality.

This is a totally meaningless poll. Rephrase the question like this:

“Do you expect to vote for the Congressman who currently represents your district.”

And you will get 80% or better approval. People don’t hate their Congressman, they hate yours.

Look at the demographics of those 10%-ers. Those are the people with motivation to participate in political activities today. They have the money and the time.

What would really be hilarious is a video of the “pollsters” asking people exactly why they disapprove of Congress. I doubt many of them could come up with anything other than, “Well, I heard it on the TV”.

Yep, and BO, the marxist pig in the WH, is fueling the contempt for congress. Think about it—if not for repubs and 3 honest dems in congress, BO would reign supreme and even more destruction of the country and wealth redistribution to other countries would have occurred by now. Thank God we have a congress that is there to fight the marxist mongrel from Chicago.
