CBS poll-- Bush slips 6 more points in his approval ratings
Like I said before by Labor day he will be in the low 50's. Bush will likely be in the high 40's in polls that only question likely voters.

1. SOB should lose 10 % points per death...
That way his ass would be in negative numbers since his cocky carrier landing exclaiming the War is over....

6. Trust me
It takes a while for the American people to catch up to what is going on. By Labor day all the lies all the soldiers death, the poor economy and the unemployment rate which with the news today is surely to go higher next month, by then it will of all sunk in. None of these polls were taken after Bush's admitted lie. With the news from CBS that Bush new the info was a lie, this will only hurt him more.

This is the BEST part:

For the first time a majority now says the Bush administration overestimated the extent of the Iraqis’ weapons.


edit: usual stuff

13. Won't work...
bush may have gotten a free pass from 9/11, but thats only valid if nothing similar happens again.
If another tragedy occurs bush will be held responsible.

And they can't start another war, with the situation in Iraq going poorly, and being far from finished. Also congress is not likely to hand bush carte blanche again.

They can't even use the patriot card anymore since the "mission accomplished" fiasco declared the end of both the boogyman Hussein and major combat.

The end is coming for these criminals.

The chimps have come home to roost.

4. An interesting part of the poll
asking what the most important problem is

Terrorism
Now
9%
5/29
16%
5/12
8%
4/27
9%
4/13
7%

Maybe people aren't so willy-nilly terrified as the media would like us to believe.

Another interesting part, asking if the respondent can name a Democratic presidential candidate

All Americans
No, cannot recall any 66%
John Kerry 7%
Howard Dean 7%
Joe Lieberman 6%
Richard Gephardt 3%
Bob Graham 1%
John Edwards 1%
Dennis Kucinich 1%
Al Sharpton 2%
Others 6%

Among Democrats
No, cannot recall any 66%
John Kerry 7%
Howard Dean 7%
Joe Lieberman 6%
Richard Gephardt 3%
Bob Graham 1%
John Edwards 1%
Dennis Kucinich 1%
Al Sharpton 2%
Others 6%

Statistically, Kerry, Dean, & Lieberman are tied.

That's the kind of thing that creates an impression in people's minds.
