Bush rating up sharply: poll Published: Monday, 14 August, 2006, 01:14 PM Doha Time WASHINGTON: Confidence in President George W Bush's handling of domestic security rose sharply in the wake of the British foiling of a plot to blow up aircraft, a new poll by Newsweek showed yesterday. Fifty-five percent of people surveyed on Thursday and Friday – coinciding with the news that Britain had arrested two dozen people who had allegedly plotted to blow up several US-bound aircraft – said they trusted Bush's handling of homeland security, Newsweek said. That was a jump from 44% in Newsweek's May poll. http://www.gulf-times.com/site/topics/article.asp?cu_no=2&item_no=102450&version=1&template_id=43&parent_id=19
