Zogby: 3% of Americans approve of how Congress is handling the war in Iraq.


Yes, that's not a typo: 3%

Here's the linky with lots of poll numbers to help folks post how screwed up the other political spectrum is:

basically means that 97% of those polled actually think Congress is running this Invasion/occupation and have any control over the machinations. I don't approve of Congress not shutting the whole effin disaster down. So I guess I disapprove of their non running of the I/O.

Funny how you left out the most telling part:

Dissatisfaction with how the war in Iraq is being handled is also considerable among past or current members of the military and their familiesnearly three in four (71%) give the president negative ratings on his handling of the war and more than half (54%) said they don’t trust the President’s judgment when it comes to the Iraq war. Nearly half (47%) say they lack confidence in Bush’s ability as Commander in Chief – 41% said they have no confidence in him at all. The vast majority (96%) also have a negative view of how Congress has handled the war, but there is disagreement about what Congress should do to support the troops. While half said Congress should fully fund the war in Iraq to maintain current troop levels, 29% would favor attaching requirements for phased withdrawal to Iraq war funding and 16% believe Congress should cut all funding for the war in Iraq and bring the troops home.

96% disapprove of the job Congress has done handling the war. Duh..

If you are for ending this mess, congress has done nothing but backdown...which of course earns them disapproval from that group.

If you are for the war, well the left have been trying to pass legislation to bring troops home. So those on this end disapprove too.
