Right Wing Dictator GW Bush Approval Rating Lower Than Nixon's

[OutsourceBush]

---snip---
Bush's approval rating is at 49 percent in the AP poll with 49 percent disapproving among all of those polled. His job approval is in the high 40s or low 50s in several other recent polls — as low as any job approval rating for a re-elected president at the start of the second term in more than 50 years.


Presidents Reagan and Clinton had job approval ratings near six in 10 just before their inauguration for a second term, according to Gallup polls.


President Nixon's approval was in the 60s right after his 1972 re-election, slid to about 50 percent right before his inauguration and then moved back over 60 percent. President Eisenhower's job approval was in the low 70s just before his second inauguration in 1957.

1. If you think that's low

wait until he starts cutting Social Security benefits or even just lowering the annual increases. He will rue the day he took on seniors. We read, we think, we vote.

2. just wait

until he institutes the draft AND scuttles Social Security!

Another question: do you think the military would back him if he decided to scrap the Constitution and declare himself a dictator?

and instituting the the Patriot Act, torture, detentions, etc, etc...
