George W. Bush’s approval rating is now a full twenty points lower than Bill Clinton’s was on the day he was impeached.

The new ABC News/Washington Post poll, here, shows 52 percent of Americans disapprove of the job President Bush is doing overall, reports ABC News' Polling director Gary Langer — the most in more than 75 ABC/Post polls since his presidency began. His approval rating is 48 percent.

Bush's Iraq approval ratings haven't fared much better: 41 percent said they approve of the job the President is doing in Iraq, while 58 percent disapprove — matching his career-high Iraq disapproval mark.

It's not easy to be popular when you have to make tough decisions. Clinton took a poll before he made a decision. He actually governed by polls. Look at North Korea, he just about handed them nukes. He was afraid to do anything to the terrorists after the Cole bombing. How about the first attempt on the Trade Towers.
