a president with less than 20% popular support,

First it is now up to 33% and Congress may still be in the single digits.

But let us assume your 20% is right. What if 1/2 of the 80% wants more aggressive action by Bush? That leaves the surrender monkeys with 40% support.

Your error is to believe everyone dislikes Bush for the same reason.
