Bush, Congress get record lows in AP-Ipsos poll
WASHINGTON (AP) - It's gotten even harder to find someone who thinks things are going well in this country.
Jarred by stubborn economic woes and long-lasting wars abroad, a soured public has given President Bush and Congress record low approval ratings in the Associated Press-Ipsos poll. The survey, released Tuesday, also set a new floor for the number of people saying the country is heading in the right direction.
Just 16 percent said the country is moving the right way, a virtual tie with the 17 percent who said so last month.
In addition, 28 percent said they approve of the job Bush is doing, tying his low in the AP-Ipsos survey set last April.
Congress fared even worse: a new AP-Ipsos low of 18 percent said they were happy with Congress' work, down 5 percentage points from last month.
The lib media keeps forgetting that Pres. Bush ain't running for office. :thatsright:
