Bush Is An Unpopular President [Say Anything]
Lets face it folks, Bush is an unpopular President right now. His approval ratings are dismal and have been trending downward for some time. We can argue fine points about media bias and inaccurate polling, but to any reasonable person the fact that Bush simply does not have the favor of most Americans right now is clear.
But why is he so unpopular? The left would have us believe that he's unpopular because the American people are seeing the error of their ways after putting President Bush back in office, but I'm not sure that's entirely accurate.
This country elected the President with a strong majority of both the popular and electoral vote based on an agenda he laid out for us during his campaign. But now that he's in office, what has the President really done to execute that agenda? He has allowed his plans to be "dragged through the mud by obstructionist Democrats," as my one of my blogging partners put it.
So while the President may be on the proverbial "shit list" with the average American, I don't think its because those Americans are thinking that they should have voted Democrat. Instead I think its because the President hasn't been diligent enough in doing the things we put him into office to do.
