WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President George W. Bush's image suffered in public opinion polls taken after Hurricane Katrina hit the U.S. Gulf Coast, with some finding growing doubts about his leadership and the country's direction.

After a week of criticism for a slow response to the devastation caused by Katrina, polls released on Thursday registered drops in Bush's approval ratings and in confidence in his leadership.

A Pew Research Center poll found 67 percent of Americans believed Bush could have done more to speed up relief efforts, and just 28 percent believed he did all he could. His approval rating slipped to 40 percent, down four points since July to the lowest point Pew has recorded.

if it is, then the species is set for extinction.

These polls are a prop. Trying to make shrub look good. I usually subtract them in half to get the correct number. If a poll is saying 40, I am believing 20.

There are some people so addicted to Georgy's brew they will drink the stuff even when they know there is a chance it will kill them.

He can't get his administration to help drowning people in less than five days. He can't win a war. He can't talk to grieving mothers. What can he do???? The man is an impotent leader.
