You know it's bad when....

...Fox News' Opinion Dynamics Poll puts Bush's approval rating at 33%.

With the poll pegging Bush's disapproval rating at 57%, that's a whopping 44% difference between the two, and very reminiscent of Nixon.

...of course, the spin is for the GOP will be to dump their lame duck president and distance themselves from his political troubles just in time for the 2006 elections and the 2008 Presidential Race.

It's part of a large trend for W.

First he lost the support of the world.

Then he lost the support of America. (Though that suport was misplaced.)

Now he's losing the support of his own party.

It's too bad people didn't realize this BEFORE the election. I hope people are happy - the country is in a downward spiral, no one trusts us, we're involved in a war that we started and it isn't even going well, we can't even save the lives of our own citizens when they are hit by a disaster,a CIA agent's name was outed for political reasons, the GOP is more corrupt than ever, and the governemnt is using illegal wiretaps to listen in on conversations of it's own citizens. I hope all these people think this was a good price to pay to keep this county from trying to solve the heathcare crisis and allowing gays to marry...

You know, it is when top politics get this bad that someone like Hulk Hogan (yes, the pro-wrestler) can jump in and actually seem like a good choice. I honestly think nobody has done a good job lately (not an excuse for Bush to crap up like he has). It is no secret that I don't don't like Bush, like Kerry even less(correction, his wife), and would rather have a cloned Reagan/Clinton running things. Both Dems and Repubs have got to get their acts together less our great country be even more of a laughing stock. We all know China and India are both going to grow larger than us...but do we want to end up failing* as bad as Russia did at the end of the Cold War?
Really, look at the trouble the World Baseball Classic had of getting Cuba okayed to play in the States. Cuba showed good faith by offering to play for free before the US did anything.
Perhaps we should start teaching the kids the metric system again.
*Note, at least Russia went broke competing against another super power, we are going down amoungst ourselves.

In one of the Japanese papers it says he is at a mighty 32%. I wonder how low he can go before he starts to blame his staff.
