Poll: Americans Blame Bush for Bush Recession, Approval of Worst President Ever Surges to 29%

NBC/Wall Street Journal Poll:

[The] public continues to blame George W. Bush more for the state of the economy than it does Obama.

According to the poll, a combined 40 percent say that Bush and his administration’s policies are “solely” or “mainly” responsible for the current economic conditions, while just 27 percent say the same of Obama and his policies.

Overall, 29 percent see Bush in a positive light, versus 50 percent who view him negatively — similar to his numbers when he left office in Jan. 2009.

Bush’s 29 percent in the current poll from the current NBC/WSJ poll represents a 7 point jump from the final CBS poll taken during his presidency. His approval was 22 percent in January 2009.

Gee, I wonder if he’s taken golf up again, the little schmuck

It’s because he’s still In CHARGE! Oops, sorry Dick.

Sometimes the truth hurts, but repubs will always deny this, eventhough they know it’s true. The Idiot from Texas is the worse president ever, and after what he and Tricky Dickie did to the U.S. is shameful. We will be feeling the effects of the repub admin for years and years. President Obama has had a rough time because of what these idiots left behind from a FAILED bush admin, and WON’T be cleaned up for quite sometime. IF the repubs regain power again, we will see the same thing all over again.
