PRINCETON, NJ -- A new Gallup Poll finds continued low levels of public support for both Congress and President George W. Bush. Twenty-nine percent of Americans approve of Congress, down slightly from last month's reading (33%) and this year's high point of 37%, while Bush's approval rating is holding steady at 33%. Both the ratings of Congress and the president are slightly lower than their respective 2007 averages. Approval ratings of Congress are higher among Democrats than Republicans, while Bush's ratings are much higher among Republicans.


A couple little factoids that RSR "forgot" to mention:


-RSR cherrypicked that absolute lowest poll number for congress. The overall polling trends show that this congress is significantly more popular (around 10% higher) than last years republican congress.

-Democrats in congress may not be loved, but the reason the overall congressional ratings are dragged so low is because republicans in congress are loathed....when approval rating are broken out along party lines, Democrats in congress get a significantly HIGHER approval ratings, than republicans in congress. As much as 10 to 15 percent higher for Dems.

Nah, seriously, when an otherwise normal person suddenly starts slobbering and acting like they have Touret's Syndrome just because somebody mentions Bush. That is the first sign of BDS.

BDS effects largely liberals, it began around 2000 in November, at that time it was called "Selection Trauma".

The average of all the polls shows the Dem Congress is in the toilet

Dems are running things -yet the left blames Relpublicans for their low numbres

The best poll I have seen is the one that shows Democrats do think the war in Iraq is lost and that victory is not important

Ohh so it is related to HDS ? I did not realize this, then it only effects nuts and talking heads anyway, so why worry about it.
 
Why would I worry about it ? I think congress sucks, I have contributed to those poll numbers of low congress approval on a couple of polls.

Why do you hate America ?
