WASHINGTON - President George W. Bush’s approval rating is continuing to slide, with 58 percent of those surveyed in a new poll out Sunday unhappy at the way he is going his job.

Thirty-nine percent gave Bush a positive rating, down from 42 percent on September 11 of this year, according to the poll by The Washington Post and ABC News..

It was taken among 600 people October 28-29, as Bush’s White House was rocked by a top official’s indictment in a CIA leak investigation, and after the defeat of his Supreme Court pick Harriet Miers.

The president’s popularity has also been dented by high gasoline prices and fallout from Hurricane Katrina.

Asked about ethics in Bush’s administration, the poll found 64 percent believed Bush’s handling of the area was fair or poor; 34 percent said they believed it was good or excellent.

can't be reached.

7. They only poll Registered Republicans. Imagine if they polled everyone

9. B* has no ethics...never had, never will. He should not be in Government,

let alone POTUS. He is a criminal, who cares only for himself, the exact opposite of what a democratic government is ideally intended for

10. he's a crook

a good man would have done
something about the corruption
that has permeated the White House.

Bush is a bad man.
