Original article: A country in shambles, under GOP rule

Look at the approval ratings!!!

For anyone who thinks it's funny how low GWB's approval ratings are (mid 20's according to pollingreport.com)...take a look at the Congress: mid teens...CBS says Bush 22% and Congress 15%...CNN says Bush 31% and Congress 22%.

The do nothing Congress, led by the DEMOCRATS have a worse approval rating...meaning that the country thinks they're doing a worse job then Bush. As we are supposed to elect a first-term Senator to be President and his 36-year veteran insider to be VP?

You've got to be kidding me....
