Bush, Rumsfeld, and the entire freakin' administration is an incompetent embarrassment to America and it's citizens.
Saddam pictures. Pentagon. Who's in charge? Rumsfled. Who does Rumsfeld report to? Bush. Where is the buck SUPPOSED to stop? Commander-in-Chief: Bush. Who apparently can't find his own ass-cheeks, using both hands: Bush.
3 Stooges, Keystone Cops, it all fits. Is it any wonder that the Dems wanna filibuster at least some of the loony-toons that Bush nominates to be judges? Couldn't manage Abu Ghraib and now can't seem to manage just ONE prisoner. Always trying to close the barn door, after the horses have gotten out. Fewer brain cells than God granted to a soap bubble = Bush.
It escapes me how anyone, anywhere can continue to support the stooge. The Dixie Chicks were right.
So, are the remaining 43% (41% in Illinois) on crack or what?
Yeah, Bush's approval rating is down to 43% per a poll released on Thursday, May 19, 2005. But, so far, U.S. MSM (Main Stream Media) isn't exactly making those poll results front page news. So much for the myth of a liberal media bias. A Google search yielded a Chinese news report beating U.S. MSM to the news via the "People's Daily Online":
"US President George W. Bush's approval rating dropped to 43 percent in a new poll released on Thursday, down from 46 percent in February and 50 percent in January when he began his second four-year term.
The US public were critical of Bush's job performance in many policy areas, but negative opinions of his handling of the economy and Iraq were doing the most damage to his overall approval rating, according to the poll conducted by the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press.
Only 35 percent of those surveyed approved of the president's handling of the economy, down from 43 percent in February and 45 percent in January. On the Iraq issue, Bush's approval rating slipped from 45 percent in January to 40 percent in February, and 37 percent currently.
Positive opinions of his handling of foreign policy fell 10 percentage points, to 38 percent, and his approval ratings on energy and social security stood at 31 percent and 29 percent respectively.
Fifty-seven percent approved of Bush's job performance on handling terrorist threats, the only issue on which the president got positive marks from a majority of the public.
The survey was conducted May 11-15 among 1,502 Americans, and has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus three percentage points.

Figures ... everything we CONSUME is manufactured in China, now the news that we both manufacture and consume is comin' outta China too!
Karl Rove had better be looking for a phone-booth to change his clothes in, or this party is over ... somebody turn out the lights. The duck is lame.
Congress Job Approval drops too ... guess who the majority in Congress is: Republican'ts. We-Told-You-So.

"Karl Rove had better be looking for a phone-booth to change his clothes in, or this party is over ..."
Well, I hope no one's around to snap a pic of Karl's phone-booth striptease. Saddam's lookin' pretty fit in those briefs, but Karl in his skivvies - eeeeeeeeeeeuuuuuu.
I found this quote from your linked KRT article pretty telling:
"If Karen Hughes were there, I suspect the first thing she'd do is have a fit over how much more difficult her job has now become," Zogby said, "because somebody blatantly insensitive and stupid got these pictures out of the prison, and somebody equally blatantly stupid published them."
Well, maybe if Karen would actually show up for work she might get a grip on such things. But note that Zogby says she'd through a fit -- wow, what an effective response -- but not that she'd hold anyone accountable for taking the pic or smuggling it out to the press. No, the press itself, whose job it is to disseminate news, is to blame for everything . . .
