Bush versus Obama Approvals: A study in Contrasts

Bush leaves office with a 22% approval rating, the lowest rating on record.

Meanwhile, Obama's transition gets an 83% approval rating and a near mirror-image of Bush's approval.

You know, one of the reasons why I didn't watch the Bush farewell address is because I just couldn't take the arrogance anymore...it's like listening to a nasty ex that you long ago divorced and no longer have to put up with trying to justify his drunken behavior to you yet again.

Or here's what it is. It's one thing to be robbed blind at gunpoint by a thief and a liar. It's another to have to listen to a lecture on your moral character about why you should be more cautious with your money while the thief is holding you up. Just rob us and go away, already.

Sigh. Just three more days. I can feel the weight lifting already. If you want to read my swan song for Bush, here it is.
