Word to Describe Bush: Incompetent

Time magazine reports on a Pew Research Center poll. They asked 710 people: "What one word best describes your impression of George W. Bush?" No options or suggestions are offered.

"Until this month, the word most associated with President Bush had always been honest, Now the leading answer is incompetent (given by 29 people), followed by good, idiot and liar. Honest has slipped to 5th, tied with Christian."

The fact that incompetent was chosen by a whole 4% doesn't mean all that much to me. 48% of the responses were negative while only 28% were positive and 10% neutral. But it makes a good blog post. :)
