    http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/20...-approval_x.htm"You hear people say he has a hard core that will never desert him, and that has been the case for most of the administration," says Charles Franklin, a political scientist at the University of Wisconsin who studies presidential approval ratings. "But for the last few months, we started to see that hard core seriously erode in support." Bush still has Mr. Wolf on his side.

    Haha, but as low as it gets, he will never get kicked out of office as long as republicans have the majority of people in the office.

    Yes, but who the F*ck cares about them. He's not going to use it on us, and he wouldn't kill a large amount of any people either, because he knows the world would interfere and wage war on him.

I'm surprised you would say that considering you care so much about the innocent Africans.

    Why do we care about those people and not the Africans? Simple, we're there for oil and we don't care about the people which Saddam used WMDs on.

    If we only care about the oil why are we in Bosnia? Columbia? Thailand? Yemen? Romania? The list goes on.Also, we are in places like Sudan, Kenya and Somailia.

    But we're not committing and undergoing major military operations in those places like we are in Iraq.

    The War on Iraq is on a much larger scale, but just because you don't hear about the troops on those other countries doesn't mean stuff isn't happening.

    i don't see that issue fixing things. He's trying to play both sides, which is an understandable efffort. Plus you have to compromise on that issue anyway. But regardless of whether it has to happen or not, compromises won't get a lot of support across the board.
