Bush in context: huffingtonpost.com "Here's the missing context: Bush is an historically unpopular president and has been since his re-election when Inauguration Day polls in 2005 showed him to be the least popular president ever to be sworn into office. As for Bush's second term, save for Richard Nixon, who who was driven from office for breaking the law, Bush has set the new standard, becoming the most unpopular, second-term president of the last half-century. That's simply a fact based on historic polling data, albeit a glaringly obvious fact the press is too polite to discuss. More broadly, Bush in 2006, with his ratings stuck in the mid-30's for many months at a time, cemented his place as one of the most disliked presidents, one-term or two, in the last 70-plus years. Or since modern day polling was invented. Fact: Eight years ago to the week, and midway through his sixth year in office, president Clinton was polling 29 points higher then Bush. That's what the mainstream media absolutely refuse to acknowledge.
