WASHINGTON â€??? A new poll shows Americans’ approval of Congress sinking to all-time lows.
The latest Gallup Poll found that approval of the legislative branch of the federal government hit 18 percent in an Aug. 13-16 survey. Those disapproving of Congress stands at 76 percent.
Gallup says the approval number matches the low-water mark hit in 1992, in the midst of a check-bouncing scandal in what was a Democrat-led Congress. That scandal was among the reasons credited for the sweeping Republican takeover in 1994.
Eighteen percent. (18%)
I don’t want to hear another word about President Bush’s low approval ratings – ever! 
Do I see this as another chance for a Republican sweep of Congress in 2008? NO! What I see is a chance to do what is really required in America – a chance to toss all of the bums out and start over. It isn’t simply a Republican take-over we need, though more liberals is certainly not the answer. We need LEADERSHIP. Responsible leadership.
Will we get it?
Time will tell…
Bull, out.
What I think you mean is a “Disapproval rating” and that would be everyone not in in a state of deep denial.
