And, this is BEFORE the release of the Baker-Hamilton Iraq Study Group report.

Bush's Iraq approval at new low

December 8, 2006


WASHINGTON President Bush's approval rating on Iraq has slumped to a new low.
Just 27 percent of those questioned in a new A-P-Ipsos poll approve of the way he's handling the war. At the same time, dissatisfaction has climbed to an all-time high of 71 percent.

Ohio State University's John Mueller, who's an authority on presidents and public opinion, says Bush's support is continuing to erode and there no reason to think it can be turned around.

The survey was taken from Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday this week and has a margin of error of plus or minus three percentage points.



This guy is on his way out. It's merely a matter of when.

2. Bush's reaction to the ISG Report should cut that approval rating down to below 20%

3. As Tom Petty would say:
And I'm free, free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'
All the vampires walkin' through the valley
Move west down Ventura Boulevard
And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows
And the good girls are home with broken hearts ...
Free fallin', now I'm a, free fallin', now I'm aFree fallin', now I'm a, free fallin', I wanna glide down over Mulholland I wanna write her name in the sky
Gonna free fall out into nothin'
Gonna leave this world for a while
