graph needs update

new poll shows 28% approval Southleft 04:13, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Actually, it has gotten worse: the last one I heard (via MSNBC) was 26%. Any lower and he's in Nixon territory...

Also upon the five-yr anniversary of the war in iraq, here's a new CNN.com story about a "new low" in approval ratings. --Andrewlp1991 (talk) 03:39, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Forked and then ignored

Ah, so right after I move stuff back into here, I discover that the reason this has barely been touched in two weeks is because it was all copied back into George_W._Bush#Criticism_and_public_perception. I don't know what to do now other than deleting most of the intro (which was never sectioned to begin with) from this article and turning it into an article solely on polling data. Any objections?--Kchase T 05:33, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Merge from Criticism on George W. Bush

Both articles should be merged in one. There's really no point in having them separated since they have practically the same content. --Hetfield1987 (Wesborland | James Hetfield) 21:47, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

They have been deliberately split in the past, as people thought the two concepts where to different which resulted in an incoherent article. I suggest we leave it like this, both articles are reasonably sized and well sourced and serve a purpose on their own. --Cpt. Morgan (Reinoutr) 20:19, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
I agree. Both articles serve a separate purpose as daughter articles of George W. Bush. - auburnpilot talk 21:11, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

Nutshell

This may seem like a stupid question, but would it be a bad idea to put this at the top of the page?

This page in a nutshell: Lots of people hate George Bush.

QuackOfaThousandSuns (talk) 03:05, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

Yes, that would be a very bad idea. - auburnpilot talk 03:22, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
That would be absolutely suitable. For uncyclopedia.--Loodog (talk) 14:43, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

New data since the election?

Hello. Are there any data on his approval now that he's a lame duck? We only seem to go up to August 2008. 66.75.11.192 (talk) 02:30, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Scholarly perception

This article deals mostly with public perception in general. Should it also include scholarly perception? Some information about this can be found in the presidential rankings page. 68.193.130.33 (talk) 04:08, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
