Nixon's Ghost: Thank God For George W. Bush!

Topping Nixon, Bush disapproval soars to highest level ever recorded in Gallup poll



For the first time, George W. Bush has surpassed Richard M. Nixon in unpopularity in the Gallup Poll, receiving the highest "strongly disapprove" rating for a president in Gallup's history.

The little noticed statistic -- publicly noted on Gallup's poll writeup -- made a single headline in Google News. The story, at Editor and Publisher, was titled

"GALLUP: Bush Finally Tops Nixon -- In Unpopularity "-- As Call for Iraq Pullout Hits New Peak.

Gallup details Bush's falling numbers in a series of graphs that appear below. They note that Bush's "strongly disapprove" rating is the highest Gallup has ever measured for a US president, though the category is not polled in every survey.


Congratulations to the Bush Administration. This is a monumental occasion that does deserve some special recognition. It's time to break out your confetti and streamer - this feat deserves a parade right down Pennsylvania Avenue.

Dubyah, you must feel proud to know that your popularity numbers have been floundering right around the same number as Richard Nixon but now they have dropped making you the record holder of having the lowest approval ratings of any American President. Congratulations George W. Bush you have solidified your position as being remembered as the "Worst American President of All Time!!!
