Support for Bush declines sharply
“If we have the capability of finding out that Joe Blow No-Name has dodged his taxes for the past 10 years, why don’t we have the capability of . . . finding a foolproof method of finding out whether the intelligence we gather is accurate and making it rock-solid before we jump into another situation?” said James Pike, 41, an auto mechanic from Ogdensburg, N.Y.

Public support for President Bush has dropped sharply amid growing concerns about U.S. military casualties and doubts whether the war with Iraq was worth fighting, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll. Bush’s overall job approval rating dropped to 59 percent, down nine points in the past 18 days. That decline exactly mirrored the slide in public support for Bush’s handling of the situation in Iraq, which now stands at 58 percent.

I saw this Subject on the DU but now I can't find it. Maybe it was serveral days ago? But this story just came out on msnbc. Forgive me if it's old news! Or it could be more of a drop, then I'm happy!

3. This just the tip of the iceburg.
The next few sets of numbers will show the real results of whats gone on. Its pretty clear that even the sheeple are nto buying the CIA fall-guy routine, and do believe Bushco lied.

Bush lied - People died. Its gonna stick like glue!

4. If they are saying 59%
It's probably more like 39%.

I have thought these high poll number are BS since the moran TOOK office.

5. Thanks for posting this, dArKeR!
I'm surprised this hadn't been posted earlier. This is huge news, and I'm sure the leak of the latest poll results played heavily into Rove's decision to force Tenet to be The Fall Guy.

This is good stuff... and it reflects the things I hear "on the street" every single day.

Drip... drip... drip.

Don't fix the faucet,
Jennifer :-)

8. It's hard for not to hope for a fall but Mom always taught us to
not think negatively or hope for bad for another but to think positively and good about (our self or our candidate or our whatever). In the end we'd accomplish the same goal.

For me, this story about this kid is a greater story about character, morals, life, God...

Past Imperfect? Gay, liberal and a political novice and a nice penis.

6. Who the hell..............
are those 50% that still worship the Chimp? Bushbots with no independent thought I guess. My brother and sister, although I'm slowly bringing my sister around, my brother is hopeless. Who are those people?

11. People are afraid to say they dont approve of the President.
When a strangers calls up to ask them. Half the people just say YES automatically.
