Approval Ratings...

There has been much talk of President Bush speaking at the Republican National Convention, and dispute because he has a 28% approval rating as of today. They're saying things like "you don't want him speaking bc his approval rating is so bad." Well, Congress has a 9% approval rating. And Nancy Pelosi spoke at the DNC. Either way you look at this, whether you decide to divide the 9% between the 535 members of Congress and give Congresswoman Pelosi her share, which is roughly .0168 of 1%. Or if you give her the full 9%...one still finds her decidedly lacking. Why shouldn't President Bush speak?

On a side note...why is it that the DNC can have their convention in relative peace and the RNC can't have theirs without liberals rioting?
