Poll: Bush Iraq Rating At New Low
Poll: Bush Iraq Rating At New Low

(CBS) President Bush's approval rating on handling Iraq has fallen to its lowest level ever, and his overall approval rating is the lowest it has been since the 2001 terrorist attacks, according to a CBS News poll.

The poll also finds that a declining number of Americans think the U.S. is in control of the situation in Iraq, and only 22% think the Bush administration has a clear plan for rebuilding the former dictatorship.

Americans also question whether a successful rebuilding of Iraq would ultimately pay dividends for them back at home: most do not think the United States will be any safer from terrorism even if Iraq does become a stable democracy. But many Americans do believe the rebuilding process in Iraq will force tough financial tradeoffs back at home - tradeoffs they would be unwilling to make.

1. Nyyeeeeeeooooowwww!!!
No, that's not the sound of a dive-bombing stuka, it's Dumbya's poll numbers! How sweet it is. Now, if we only had a functioning, independent media, we'd get this clown out of office before he could inflict any more damage on our country and the world, but I'll settle for his ouster in November 2004.
