Newsday.com: Amid plea, Bush polls at new low:

"The ABC/Post poll has Bush with a personal-low approval rating of 39 percent, meaning six in 10 disapprove of the job he's doing, numbers that mirror those faced by Bush's father before a recession caused him to lose the 1992 election.

Just 40 percent call Bush honest and trustworthy, and fewer than half call him a strong leader, this poll found. On the Iraq war, 55 percent say Bush intentionally misled the public, and 60 percent say the war wasn't worth fighting, both new highs.

An AP-Ipsos poll had similar findings: a personal low approval rating of 37 percent. The intensity of the disapproval is the strongest to date, with 42 percent saying they 'strongly disapprove' of Bush's job performance, twice as many as the 20 percent who 'strongly approve.'"
