According to David A. Patten (22 Aug 2010), when George W. Bush departed the White House on Jan. 20, 2009, he left as one of the most unpopular presidents in history. At the time, a Gallup poll found President Bush tallied a mere 34 percent approval. That put him only slightly above the two most unpopular presidents in the era of modern polling: Harry Truman (32 percent when he left office), and Richard Nixon (22 percent when he resigned in disgrace in August 1974.)
Close to two years into President Barack Obama's term, Bush's mojo with the American public appears on the rise.
"President Bush has been diplomatic and gracious since leaving office," former Bush media adviser Mark McKinnon tells Newsmax (Newsmax, 22 Aug 2010). "And as Americans view him through the lens of history and compare him to modern presidents who struggle to meet the challenges of the 21st century, President Bush's tenure will continue to look better and better. It's happening faster than anyone thought" (David A. Patten, 22 Aug 2010).
Especially as the Obama and the Democratic Party continue spending America’s future away and Obamacare is being hailed as a “tax on taxes” double standard medical program that only applies to non-Washington Politicians.
A top Democratic pollster in Washington is circulating a poll showing Bush's popularity in key contested congressional districts is now 6 points ahead of Obama's. Since March 2009, Bush's Gallup rating has climbed 10 points. Obama's favorability during the same period: down by more than 20 points. The bottom line: just 18 months after leaving office, Bush doesn't look so bad after all — despite the fact that the Obama administration has used him as a political piñata for months (David A. Patten, 22 Aug 2010).
Let’s not forget, since 2007 (Bush’s last two years in office) when the Democratic Party took both Houses of Congress, the non-stop careless spending by Obama and Democrats is destroying America. Mr. Obama has quickly become the worst American President in record time including record high vacations.
