CNN / USA TODAY / GALLUP Poll: LINK: click here for full article on Gallop.com Excerpts: Despite widespread criticism of the response by Bush and,
separately, the federal government, to the problems caused by the hurricane,
the public seems on balance only mildly critical. Forty-two percent say Bush
did a "bad" (18%) or "terrible" (24%) job, but 35% rate his response as
either "great" (10%) or "good" (25%). When asked to identify who was most responsible for the problems in New
Orleans after the hurricane, 38% of Americans said no one was really to
blame, while 13% cited Bush, 18% the federal agencies, and 25% state and
local officials. Few Americans feel that any top official in the agencies responsible for
handling emergencies should be dismissed from office -- just 29% say someone
should be fired, while 63% disagree.
