Bush Job Approval at 39%

Rasmussen Reports ^

[linuxster]

Thirty-nine percent (39%) of Likely Voters approved of the way that George W. Bush is performing his role as President of the United States. Fifty-eight percent (58%) disapprove. Those figures include 21% who Strongly Approve and 44% who Strongly Disapprove.

That’s a pretty big improvement over recent days. See what happens when the media slacks off a bit on its constant Bush-bashing?

While the President's Approval didn't budge in December, the number of people considering themselves Republicans increased during the month. In fact, the Democrats advantage in party identification is now the smallest it's been in nearly two years. This may be linked to the fact that confidence in the War on Terror increased significantly during December.

[umgud]

Bush’s fault.

[lonestar67]

let me be the first to say I am in the 21% strongly support group

Incredible job mr president

You defeated the MSm. War against our troops in Iraq

[getitright]

Bush’s approval at 39- consider that Clinton won the White House with 43%.

And we are to believe that the Clinton’s are wildly popular and Bush is hated.

[Digger]

If only the One World Order puppet would stop the illegal invasion he just might be at 60% but what the heck does it matter to us sheeple. Globalism is for the maases, right?

Me too. No president does everything you want, or is ideologically pure. Reagan disappointed me when he didn't even try to dismantle the DOE and DO Ed, and when he signed off on the 1986 tax increases. But he was fantastic.

Bush has had problems of letting his feelings and compassion get in the way of his clear vision, but given the circumstances, I can't imagine many other men, or women, in the U.S. from 2000 to 2007 who could have done an overall better job.

And I bet this will get major coverage on the alphabets tonight! NOT!

[silverleaf]

So Bush is now 3 times more popular than the US Congress?
Whoo Hoo!

[raybbr]

Well, let’s see. Bush just signed a new gun regulation law, a new “energy bill” (that does nothing to help us become energy independent), a new government openness bill (which Patrick Leahy loves) and recently signed a “mortgage tax relief” law. All seem to be democrat proposals. Of course, more Dummies are going to approve.

[marron]

Keeping in mind that in a 50-50 country, of the 58% who disapprove of Bush, 50% disapprove because he isn’t enough of a Democrat, and the 8% because he’s too much like a Democrat.

Personally, I admire his courage in waging war, I’m mad at him for failing to secure the border, I admire his essential decency, I’m mad at him for failing to shrink the federal government. His record is a mixed one, but considering the alternatives in 2000 and 2004 I thank God he was the man in the White House when it all hit the fan.

For 2008, though, we have several decent men to choose from, but only two conservatives. I want a real conservative in office going forward. There is too much at stake to settle for less.

[getitright]

I here ya talkin, bro.

Who would you say is the anti- one worlder of the race?

I am not finding one. My hunch is Thompson.

[muir_redwoods]

does that put his approval twice as high as congress’?

[E. Cartman]

If only the One World Order puppet would stop the illegal invasion he just might be at 60% but what the heck does it matter to us sheeple. Globalism is for the maases, right?

Wow! Bush at 39%! That's something this conservative finds hard to believe.

[JimRed]

44% strongly disapprove- that will never change as long as RATS exist...

[karnage]

I’m witchoo!
