Majority of Americans Say Bush is Doing a Bad Job

The same poll I mention in my previous post on GM's job cuts shows that Bush is now, officially, an unpopular president. His approval rating is 20 points lower than Clinton's at the time of the impeachment. His approval rating is lower than Nixon's just a month before the one of the largest and most-recognized protests in American history: Operation Dewey Canyon III.

Tell your friends (new language): Bush is unpopular.
The majority of Americans think he is doing a bad job. Forget "mandate," and start thinking about how Bush betrayed his followers, and has done even worse than predicted by critics like myself. Bush is unpopular at home, and dangerously so in other countries (who, unlike us, have not forgotten about the Downing Street Memo).
