37% New Gallup
July 25, 2006
Bush Job Approval at 37%
Similar to 37% average rating for all of June


by Joseph Carroll

GALLUP NEWS SERVICE

PRINCETON, NJ -- A new USA Today/Gallup poll finds 37% of Americans approving of the way Bush is handling his job as president and 59% disapproving. Despite many extraordinary events dominating the news over the past weeks -- including the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon and Bush's high-visibility trip to Europe -- this slight drop from the 40% approval rating measured earlier in the month is not statistically significant and falls within the margin of error between the two surveys. The current 37% rating is similar to his average approval rating of 37% for all of June.

Bush's job approval rating had been showing a slow, gradual improvement from his administration's low point of 31% in early May, but seems to have reached a plateau in the 37% to 40% range since mid-June. Bush's ratings were higher in January and early February, averaging 42%.

2. people are just sick if they believe this jerk is doing the right
thing for causing so much turmoil in the world. 37% who are those 37% who endorse all this death and destruction.

3. Stupidity, arrogance, fear, ignorance, and...
years of being trained to wave a flag and jump like trained dogs when their leader barks. Oh yeah gnat-like attention spans cultivated by an addiction to television.

And with all that we're still seeing the Emperor has no clothes, so maybe there is some hope for our future as a species.

Well 63% of our species anyway :D

4. Remember when the only way they ever described Bush* was as the popular
pResident? Well we sure haven't heard that for a while have we? Also we haven't ever heard the unpopular pResident have we. You would think FOX being so "fair and balanced" would use that phrase wouldn't you?
