Winstonm Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 DId Bush really have an approval rating of 90% at some point? When was that? Shortly after 9-11. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherdano Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 I didn't believe it either, but it seems Winston is right.http://www.hist.umn.edu/~ruggles/Approval.htm I guess the 90% approval seemed so silly at the time that I forgot as quickly as possible.

I think it was more of a "gut" reaction to 9-11 than a true approval for Bush - more like rallying round the flag sort of thing than genuine support for the president.

Al_U_Card Posted April 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 I can't help but be reminded of that scene where the secret service agent whispers in Dubya's ear that the country is under attack and he finishes off the session with the kids!!!! Like he was too stupid to realize that he wasn't needed to deal with the situation....or that he already knew it and had been told to "remain calm".
