"This just in: The new ABC News/Washington Post poll shows 52 percent of Americans disapprove of the job President Bush is doing overall. George W. Bush's approval rating is now a full twenty points lower than Bill Clinton's was on the day he was impeached. Dear media, that means you gotta stop referring to him as a "popular president", and no less important, stop treating him like one. If you want to be wimps about everything, fine, just don't blame it on his "popularity." Blame it on yourselves."
