The latest bogus C-BS News Poll !

According to the lastest C-BS News poll, the President's approval rating is at 35%, well I guess they would get that number if the suppressed the number of Republicans surveyed down to, oh, I don't know, say 23.8%??? Well what do you know, thats exactly what they did; (via RCP)
CBS News Poll
New CBS News poll out tonight. Highlights:

Bush job approval at all time low of 35%
Bush favorable rating at 33%
Right track 27%, wrong track 68%
Congress job approval 34%
Congressional Dem favorable rating 41%, Congressional Republican favorable rating 35%
Now for the numbers behind the numbers. Take a look at the composition of the respondents:


Total Respondents (Unweighted) = 936
Republicans = 259 (27.67%)
Democrats = 326 (34.83%)
Independents = 351 (37.5%)


Now look at the weighted sample:

Republicans: 223 (23.80%)
Democrats: 326 (34.79%)
Independents: 388 (41.4%)

The result is a 35% job approval for the president, which is roughly 4-8 points lower than the other polls out right now.
