Bush Falls Again!
Well it looks like he's down to 42% now from more than one source.
The consistent point is that the public is losing faith with his ability to deal with our problems, including the war which he initiated. This President has been utterly unwilling to take responsiblity for any of the things that have gone wrong during his presidency. while i will grant that the president is not responsible for all our woes, he cannot preside over this many things that have gone wrong and claim none of it is his fault. This has created a real problem with Republicans that fancy themselves as the type that 'take responsibility' rather than pass on the blame. The sheer volume of what has gone wrong:
*tanding in the international community
*inability to broker international agreements with virutally any potent hot spot in the world
*Record spending (as a percentage or by the dollar).
*Record Debt.
*A war that clearly lacked planning.
*Soldiers dying more during the peace, now that "the fighting is over"
*We have a firm June 30th handover in Iraq but not the slightest idea to whom we're handing things off.
*The worst employment numbers since the great depression.
the list goes on and on, and for some reason...none of it is his fault. i'm not saying he should apologize for all the flaws of the world but for him to not acknowledge the fact that SOMEthings have gone wrong, or at least not as planned...
i don't know why i'm even talking here. the man has never had to take responsibility for any of the messes he's made in his adult, professional life (and there's been plenty)...why should it be different now?
