Bush's approval ratings hit new low 1 hour, 2 minutes ago news.yahoo.com WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President George W. Bush's approval rating fell to 32 percent, a new low for his presidency, a CNN poll showed on Monday. The survey showed that 60 percent of Americans disapprove of the way Bush is handling his job. Bush's poll numbers have languished below 40 percent in recent months, hit by growing public opposition to the Iraq war, his administration's mishandling of the initial response to Hurricane Katrina and political missteps plus rising gas prices.

"Their opposition is based on greed" No KIDDING! (I thought I'd made that clear? They, just like any other commercial enterprises, are looking to maximize their gains and minimize their losses....) So what ELSE is new? Ain't Disney and the local Chambers of Commerce, the Realtors, the big hotel and motel chains... in fact, the entire tourist-driven and retirement driven parts of the economy got a right to speak up for what they want or don't want... same as anyone else?
