NEW YORK -- A report on a new Gallup poll released today shows that President Bush approval rating on his handling of Iraq is now at 32% -- tied for the lowest rating Gallup has measured.
The survey, taken April 7-9, also shows that 57% of Americans think the United States will not win in Iraq.
In a surprise, the new poll found that 44% of Republicans now back withdrawing some or all troops from Iraq. The number for all Americans, 64%, is higher, but the fact that better than 4 in 10 Republicans back this idea is notable. Indepedents are tracking much closer to Democrats on all issues related to Iraq.
In another finding, 57% of Americans say it was a mistake to send troops to Iraq, while 42% say it was not. Since December 2005, either a plurality or majority of Americans have said it was a mistake.

Interesting comment you have as the subtitle of your blog. I'm sure you'll see that if you look at the current state of all democracies, you'll find that the people who run and support them are exactly the kind of people whom Adams was addressing. I wonder if you have ever read any Proudhon, Kropotkin, Berkman, Marx, Chomsky, etc. You'd probably enjoy them.
