Wrong again, Kenneth...

Approval of Congress at 40%

According to the Gallop Poll:
Americans' job approval rating of Congress is up an additional 8 points this month, after a 12-point increase last month, and now stands at 39%
gallup.com

That makes the approval number 39% +-3%. Did you just decide to round this number up ? LOL!

A more telling view of this poll is this:

Americans who identify themselves as Democrats are mostly responsible for the improved ratings of Congress measured in the March 5-8 Gallup Poll. After showing a 25-point increase in their approval of Congress from January to February and a further 14-point increase in March, a majority of Democrats (57%) now approve of the job the Democratically-controlled Congress is doing. Independents also show improved ratings of Congress, but not nearly to the extent that Democrats do. Republicans' evaluations of Congress have changed very little this year.

Alas, Gallup has not seen fit to publish the weightings used for Democrats, Republicans, and Independents in this poll. Note also that Republicans have not changed their opinions much. For that matter, independents are virtually unchanged as well. The only conclusion: this poll was heavily weighted with Democrats.

Talk about biased propaganda...I guess this is why you have chosen to use these numbers.

You are ever the useful idiot living in your DNC fantasy land. LOL!
