NEW YORK, Sept. 16 (UPI) -- The U.S. Congress faces a historically low approval rating of 12 percent, a New York Times/CBS News poll said.

The poll found just 12 percent of Americans approve of the way Congress is doing its job, The New York Times reported Friday, matching the all-time low recorded in October 2008.

Good news - Democrats only have a 28% approval rating.

Bad News - Republicans have a 19% approval rating.

So what do those figures tell me... 28% of the people in this country are total rejects, with 19% of them are crossing over and saying the Pubbies are doing a good job of being stupid enough to give into the Democrats demands... So that leaves 72% of the people that hate what both stupid ass political parties are doing!!!!! Maybe there is hope for this country after all.......

Being even more of a socialist than Babs (who'd have imagined such a thing?), she'd happily whore her soul to every idiotic idea that comes out of the Kenyan's mouth...

That poll is meaningless. We don't vote for congress. We vote for individuals individually.

We vote for individuals individually.

Did you read the whole poll?

Only 1 out of 3 stated that their Congressmen deserved re-election.
