Bush Hits TWO New Lows

Bush Approval Rating Hits New Low
By Mark Memmott, USA TODAY

President Bush's approval rating has sunk to a new low according to a USA TODAY/CNN/Gallup poll.

The latest results show only 36% of those polled saying they approve of the way Bush is handling his job. Bush's previous low was 37%, set last November.


Jessica Simpson Snubs Bush

LOS ANGELES (Fox News) — Jessica Simpson didn't want to meet the president.

Concerned about politicizing her favorite charity, the singer/actress on Wednesday turned down an invitation to meet with President George W. Bush at a major Republican fund-raiser.

The sexy "The Dukes of Hazzard" star still planned to visit Washington on Thursday to lobby members of Congress on behalf of Operation Smile, a non-profit venture offering free plastic surgery for disadvantaged children overseas with facial deformities.

But people close to Simpson said she passed on a request to appear at the fund-raiser of the National Republican Congressional Committee,even after she was offered some private time with Bush — because Operation Smile is a non-partisan group.
