That’s half of the president’s rating. That’s less than the press, military, public schools, healthcare insurance and even big business! Guess who rated the highest before you check out the results (which is surprising given their bad press). They are at the bottom of the heap. According to Gallup, this is the lowest score for any US institution in the 35 year history of asking this question. As bad as you think the Republican-lead Congress was, their score was never this low.
As someone who believes that government can’t solve our problems, it makes me very happy that the American public has such a low view of Congress. They aren’t up to the job of solving the problems of this nation, maybe the public is starting to get that fact.
