No Respect

Aside from a 33% approval, there are some other, less flattering findings. Pew Research Center (03.15.06), via Eschaton:

"Currently, 48% use a negative word to describe Bush compared with just 28% who use a positive term, and 10% who use neutral language. The single word most frequently associated with George W. Bush today is 'incompetent', and close behind are two other increasingly mentioned descriptors: 'idiot' and 'liar'." Summary of Findings: Bush Approval Falls to 33%, Congress Earns Rare Praise

"All three are mentioned far more often today than a year ago."
