Et Tu, Fox?

It's bad when even Fox News notices - and wow, even reports rather than distorts! - the president's dismal poll numbers:

NEW YORK — More Americans disapprove than approve of how George W. Bush, Donald Rumsfeld and Congress are doing their jobs, while a majority approves of Condoleezza Rice. President Bush’s approval hits a record low of 33 percent this week, clearly damaged by sinking support among Republicans.

Opinions are sharply divided on whether Rumsfeld should resign as secretary of defense. In addition, views on the economy are glum; most Americans rate the current economy negatively, and twice as many say it feels like the economy is getting worse rather than better. These are just some of the findings of the latest FOX News national poll.
At this rate, Mr. Bush will soon join VP Duck! It's Dick! Cheney's 12-18% approval rating. Few can accomplish this but I have faith in Dubya, at least on this score.
