In a recent poll in may, Bush's approval rating, along with Congress is about 30% (source: http://www.foxnews.com/wires/2007May11/0,4670,APPollBushCongress,00.html)
In another unrelated poll, Sunnis take up about 15-20%
(source:http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/11/28/AR2006112801277.html)
Now, i believe that while Saddam Hussein was in power, mostly the Sunnis supported him. (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/6238435.stm)
Based on these facts, Saddam had approximately 15-20% of his country supporting him, while president Bush has about 35% of the country supporting him. I'd say that's about roughly the same percentage of approval. Now i ask you although this is highly unlikely, how would you feel if China viewed us as under an oppressive dictator and invaded the U.S. in order to "liberate us." I'm sure they heard about president Bush's detainees in Guantanamo bay and about Florida's controversy in the election. So, could this happen? Would you welcome them?
