New Poll: Americans Dislike Bush But Hate Congress

Deepening unhappiness with President George W. Bush and the U.S. Congress soured the mood of Americans and sent Bush's approval rating to another record low this month, according to a Reuters/Zogby poll released on Wednesday.

Bush's job approval rating fell to 24 percent from last month's record low for a Zogby poll of 29 percent. A paltry 11 percent gave Congress a positive grade, tying last month's record low.

"There is a real question among Americans now about how relevant this government is to them," pollster John Zogby said. "They tell us they want action ... but they don't believe they are going to get it."

This is as good an excuse as any to say that, based on the polls, what we need is LESS not MORE useless government. To conclude anything else is simply stupid.
