Bush 'popularity' a myth

You hear it over and over again in the media. Ol' Dubya is one popular president. The election was a "mandate" of his approval.

Not so fast. The "uniter" is gloriously standing atop the LOWEST approval rating for second term president since WW2. Bush is floundering at 45%, the only president to be under 56% at this point in his second term.

So the next time some right-wing stooge tells you how popular Bush is, or some lazy media hack parrots what the GOP tells him/her, take note of what the Gallup Poll is showing. Just like everything else in the Bush era, his "popularity" is pure propaganda.
