cyberdude611 -> Zogby: 3% approve of Congress on Iraq (8/3/2007 1:24:19 PM)

No...that's not a typo... The Zogby polls shows only 3% (THREE percent) of Americans approve of how congress has handled the Iraq war issue. President Bush's rating is 24%.

From Zogby.....
A majority of American adults (54%) lack confidence in President Bush’s ability as Commander in Chief of the U.S. military, a new UPI/Zogby Interactive poll shows. A majority (60%) said they do not trust the president’s judgment when it comes to the war, while 38% say they have faith in his military decisions.
Just 24% give the president favorable ratings of his performance in handling the war in Iraq, but confidence in Congress is significantly worse – only 3% give Congress positive marks for how it has handled the war. This lack of confidence in Congress cuts across all ideologies. Democrats – some of whom had hoped the now Democrat-led Congress would bring an end to the war in Iraq – expressed overwhelming displeasure with how Congress has handled the war, with 94% giving Congress a negative rating in its handling specifically of that issue.
The online survey was conducted July 13–16, 2007, and included 7,590 respondents. It carries a margin of error of +/– 1.1 percentage points.

..it would be interesting to see if any of the people competing for their respective party nominations get an approval rating of anything above 24% regarding Iraq.
3% or 24%, neither is encouraging.

Yeah, DON'T immediately pull out the troops, and you get 3% approval.
