The majority of American voters would not like to see President Bush re-elected to another term according to a poll by Newsweek magazine.

The survey released Saturday showed that 49 percent of registered voters would not back the president for a second term if the vote were held now. Forty-four percent would support Mr. Bush's re-election.

The poll marked the first time in a Newsweek survey that supporters of Mr. Bush were out-numbered by those who would not like to see him back remain in office. In April, 52 percent of voters backed the president for a second term, while 38 percent did not.

The Newsweek report attributed the decline in the president's popularity to public disenchantment over the Iraq war. The poll found 69 percent of respondents said they were concerned that the United States will be bogged down for many years in Iraq without achieving its goals there.

Nearly half of those polled said they were concerned that the cost of the war will lead to a large budget deficit and seriously impact the U.S. economy. And more than half said they thought the estimated $1 billion per week the United States is paying for the war effort is too much and should be scaled back.

However, 61 percent still believe the United States was right to take military action against Iraq in March.

Only 18 percent of those polled believe a stable, democratic government can be set up in Iraq in the long term. And only 13 percent of respondents said U.S. efforts to establish security in Iraq and rebuild the country have gone well since May 1, when combat officially ended.

The Newsweek poll results are based on telephone interviews with more than one thousand adults aged 18 and older. It was conducted on August 21 and 22. The margin of error is plus or minus three percent.

Leave it to the likes of your imbecilic ilk to reply with a pointless response instead of a constructive viewpoint pretaining to the issue in the article. :rolleyes:

You know, it sucked momentarily putting myself in the shoes of the likes of Bill O'Reilly and David Puke clones like yourself.

Nice Av. Too bad that jerkoff comdemns same sex unions while at the same time protecting priests who sodomize alter boys.

Only a repulsive imbecile would use an av like that.

YOU ARE AN IMBECILE.

YOU ARE A LOST CAUSE.

Here... Have another drink... Dip it with "X", Knock yourself out.

Pass out. have dreams about having a real clue.... or fucking your dog.... or dressing up your barbie dolls.... or dressing yourself like one.... whatever gets your dick hard.

Better yet... kill yourself, fucktard. :D:laugh:

:blown:
