A few people, including myself, have already made comments regarding this poll on the MSNBC website.
My apologies for the quickie, but I wanted as many kossacks as possible to see it, and to GO VOTE!
UPDATE II: CNN Quick Vote as well. As of now (8:47pm PDT), identical percentage as below the fold, but less participants.

Yes, I know, it's not scientific...but can you imagine what the percentage would be if the majority of DailyKos members voted?

UPDATE VI - 8:15am PDT: WoW! Surprised to still see this on the REC list this morning. As of now, here is a recap of how the polls I've linked to stand:
Remember, basically each poll words it a little differently but basically asks the same question: "Do you agree with Bush's action?"
MSNBC - 225,038 responses - Yes, 28% / No, 72%
Up from last nights 29/71
CNN - 85,072 votes - Yes, 22% / No, 78%
I didn't make a note of it last night, but it looks as though it may be going the wrong way according to comments.
WSJ Forum - 12,099 votes - Yes, 26% / No, 74%
Way up from last night, but I think it's possible to vote more than once. Even so...
AOL News -
Question #1 (asking do you agree?) 341,813 votes - Yes, 34% / No, 66%
Down 1% from last night
Question #2 (Orig sentence excessive?) 323,644 votes - Yes, 35% / No, 65%
Down 1% from last night
LA Times - (Orig sentence excessive?) 3,839 votes - Yes, 7.5% / No, 92.8%
Up almost 3% from last night
As I write this, Snow is fending off attacks. I hope someone diaries it...I've missed the beginning.
