To be honest, I'm absolutely baffled that after five years, there are still pea-brains out there who aren't.

Who are you calling pea-brained? Why those are flag waving, bible-thumping, Fox News watching AMERICANS! They are TRUE PATRIOTS, they will deny that American or its government could ever do wrong. Don't you understand, the United States, and our leaders, are DIVINELY INSPIRED!

I'm curious as to just how low Bush's approval rating can go.

It depends on wether negative numbers can be used.

My bet is that "W" could get busted in the Larry Craig memorial stall in the Minneapolis airport and there would still be some hardcore supporters who would refuse to criticize him. I'm just curious as to where that floor may be.

There will always be a core group of people who think he lied for the right reasons, to allow himself to do the right thing, which would be invade Iraq and oust Saddam Hussein. The ends justify the means and all that.

These are the people who do not pay attention to the available information that proves that Bush thought he needed a war with Iraq to win the election in 2004.

Bush's words to his biographer in 1999....

‘One of the keys to being seen as a great leader is to be seen as a commander-in-chief.’ And he said, ‘My father had all this political capital built up when he drove the Iraqis out of Kuwait and he wasted it.’ He said, ‘If I have a chance to invade….if I had that much capital, I’m not going to waste it. I’m going to get everything passed that I want to get passed and I’m going to have a successful presidency.”
