It looks like Harry is trolling again. It is best to just ignore the man,
he might go away.

George W. Bush's Job Approval Ratings Drop

George W. Bush's overall job approval ratings have dropped from a month
ago even as Americans who approve of the way Bush is handling his job as
president are turning more optimistic about their personal financial
situations according to the latest survey from the American Research
Group. Among all Americans, 36% approve of the way Bush is handling his
job as president and 58% disapprove. When it comes to Bush's handling of
the economy, 33% approve and 62% disapprove.

Among Americans registered to vote, 38% approve of the way Bush is
handling his job as president and 56% disapprove, and 36% approve of the
way Bush is handling the economy and 60% disapprove.

This is the second month in a row when improving economic ratings have not
been matched by higher job approval ratings for Bush. A total of 24% of
Americans now say their personal financial situations are getting better,
up from 17% in July, and 27% say they believe that their personal
financial situations will be better off a year from now, which is up from
21% in July.

The increases in the personal financial ratings, however, are coming
mainly from those approving of the way Bush is handling his job. A total
of 54% of those approving the way Bush is handling his job say their
personal financial situations are getting better, compared to 5% of those
saying they disapprove of the way Bush is handling his job, and 61% of
those saying they approve of the way Bush is handling his job say they
expect to be better off a year from now, compared to 6% of those saying
they disapprove of the way Bush is handling his job.

The results presented here are based on 1,100 completed telephone
interviews conducted among a nationwide random sample of adults 18 years
and older. The interviews were completed August 18 through 21, 2005. The
theoretical margin of error for the total sample is plus or minus 2.6
percentage points, 95% of the time, on questions where opinion is evenly
split.

Overall, 36% of Americans say that they approve of the way George W. Bush
is handling his job as president, 58% disapprove, and 6% are undecided.
