Oh, good morning!
Feb. 28th, 2006 01:53 pm"President George W. Bush's job rating has fallen to an all-time low of 34 percent, amid strong opposition to the Dubai Ports World deal and increasing pessimism over the war in Iraq, according to a CBS News poll released on Monday. ... The poll found that 46 percent hold a negative view of Cheney and 18 percent hold a favorable view, down from a 23 percent favorable rating in January." [link]Deeeelicious.
For comparison, Jimmy Carter's approval rating was 34% when he left office, and Nixon's was 24%. Clinton's and Reagan's were 64-65%.
(Granted, I actually agree with Bush and Carter that the Dubai ports deal is a lot of kerfuffle over nothing, and probably motivated by bigotry to boot, but that makes it even tastier somehow.)
Now, off on a paczki quest.
