WASHINGTON - More and more people, particularly Republicans, disapprove of President Bush's performance, question his character and no longer consider him a strong leader against terrorism, according to an AP-Ipsos poll documenting one of the bleakest points of his presidency.

Nearly four out of five Americans, including 70 percent of Republicans, believe civil war will break out in Iraq - the bloody hot spot upon which Bush has staked his presidency. Nearly 70 percent of people say the U.S. is on the wrong track, a 6-point jump since February.

"I'm not happy with how things are going," said Margaret Campanelli, a retiree in Norwich, Conn., who said she tends to vote Republican. "I'm particularly not happy with Iraq, not happy with how things worked with Hurricane Katrina."

Republican Party leaders said the survey explains why GOP lawmakers are rushing to distance themselves from Bush on a range of issues - port security, immigration, spending, warrantless eavesdropping and trade, for example.

WASHINGTON - President Bush said Monday insurgents in Iraq were trying to ignite a civil war by escalating violence and warned there will be more "chaos and carnage in the days and months to come."

Not only has he spent it, he is heavy into deficit capital spending, as his his custom. Even his party is starting to think he's an asshole.

Those Neo-Cons just spend and spend and spend. They can't seem to pay as they go.

mister bush is in Ohio today selling the same old pitch to an audience that he hopes to convince with words like resolve, honor, victory, freedom, patriotism, standing strong all the tried and tested words that have worked for years and centuries - the cheers will be on the news later today and then again tonite -
I was listening to the radio this mornin' and the White House was whining that the killings - car bombings - violence -attacks - death and destruction was getting so much news cover that all the good things are being over looked <img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/confused.gif" width=15 height=22> well I guess thats as good as they can come up with and it surely will be good enough for some -
as Bob Dylan told the late Hunter S Thompson earlier this decade
"we do not have to follow them"
I guess we should find some comfort in that - the seeds of truth still will survive - even on this path headin' to desolation row

Shake up at the whitehouse? Andrew Card resigns? other heads to roll?
Much like a sports team, when the team is losing and getting worse, doncha think you should fire the coach before all the players?

Mike found out we get a free preview of the Showtime channels for a week. So I was flipping thru them & came across Fahrenheit 911. The last 40 mins of it. So I decided to watch it just to see what all the hype was about. I had to flip over to the weather when it was time for that & when the weather was over, then back to the movie. It doesn't change my mind one bit. I still like Dubya. If anything I think it'll make thos who liek Dubya like him more & those who hate him not change their minds. It made me stop to pray for Dubya as he needs our prayers & not hate. I bet I suprised ya'll that I watched it. But I didn't agree with it lol... <img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/peace.gif" width=16 height=16>

Let's hope that it's only the beginning of this ruling party's house of slime oozing back into the cess pool from whence it came! (I wasn't too over the top there, was I?)

Jeez, what a nice guy, stepping down for the good of the Party. You don't think they had anything on him, do you? Nah!
