Thursday, July 14, 2005 New Low Bush Poll Numbers & Roe vs Wade A new NBC/ Wall St Jrnl poll shows dismal numbers for Bush (view the entire pdf here). The poll finds that Bush’s overall job rating has slipped and that his rating for being “honest and straightforward” has dropped to its lowest pt (and keep in mind that poll was taken before the Rove scandal really started bubbling over): Is Nation on Right Track (34%) Is Nation on Wrong Track (52%) Bush Rating on Economy Approve 39% Disapprove 54% Bush Rating on Iraq Approve 39% Disapprove 55% Bush Honest? Yes 41% No 45% Congress Approve 28% Disapprove 55% Should Roe vs Wade Be Overturned? No 65% Yes 29%. Let's hope that he keeps that last poll number in mind when considering his long list of possible crazies and wingnuts for the Supreme Crt. One need only look at a nation like Romania to see what happens when crazy ideology goes against the wishes of the citizenry and outlaws birth control and/or abortion... the long lasting results are NOT PRETTY for the women or the children. |
