Polling Report tells us that Bush still gets high (if slipping) marks for his handling of Iraq in a CBS News poll dated July 8-9 (approval is 58%, disapproval 32%). People still think that removing Saddam from power was worth it and that Saddam was a threat to the U.S. But there are a few interesting results beyond that:
