Wishing it was simply over

By Creature

Wish the Bush presidency was over? You're not alone. New numbers from Newsweek:

The president’s approval ratings are at their lowest point in the poll’s history—30 percent—and more than half the country (58 percent) say they wish the Bush presidency were simply over, a sentiment that is almost unanimous among Democrats (86 percent), and is shared by a clear majority (59 percent) of independents and even one in five (21 percent) Republicans.

Numbers like those above used to give me cause to happy-dance. They reflected a growing awareness of the American public to the disaster that is GWB. Today, with the tide thoroughly turned against the boy-president and his evil Dick of a sidekick, the reality of two more years just depresses the fuck out of me.
