CNN Poll Proves The Obvious: Bush Really, Really Unpopular

Poor President Bush (contrary to what it seems like Bush is in fact still president). Barack Obama has been in office a week and he’s already way, way more popular than Bush. But that’s not hard to accomplish considering that a new poll shows Bush is quite possibly the most unpopular president ever.
 

CNN reports:

The all-time low on the public's mood may have something to do with the poll's finding that President Bush is the most unpopular president since approval ratings were first sought more than six decades ago. Seventy-six percent of those questioned in the poll disapprove of how he is handling his job.

That's an all-time high in CNN polling and in Gallup polling dating back to World War II.

"No other president's disapproval rating has gone higher than 70 percent. Bush has managed to do that three times so far this year," Holland said. "That means that Bush is now more unpopular than Richard Nixon was when he resigned from office during Watergate with a 66 percent disapproval rating."

Richard Nixon was the only president to ever resign from office and he’s more popular than Bush.

 

When even Sarah Palin is taking potshots at you, you know it’s bad.
