SELF IMMOLATION
Remember those monks that would set themselves on fire during one of the wars we had?
I am reminded of that when I see stuff like this result from the latest Washington Post poll.
The first item is for Frist. The second is about junior.
Would you support or oppose changing the Senate rules to make it easier for the Republicans to confirm Bush's judicial nominees?
Support - 26%
Oppose - 66%
Do you approve or disapprove of the way Bush is handling:
Approve / Disapprove
A. Social Security 31 / 64
B. Iraq 42 / 56
C. Economy 40 / 57
D. Terrorism 56 / 41
E. Energy Policy 35 / 54
Which party better represents your personal values?
Dems - 47%
GOP - 38%This is all by way of Daily Kos; thanks.
With all the handwringing about what the Demos should do (for god's sake) this would say that Howard Dean and Harry Reid's idea of doing effectively nothing but holding at the wall is correct.
Another place, I read that the bushies misinterpreted their support for terrorism as extending to all other areas. This seems to have been mistaken.
I don't know. It is just nice to see these bullshit artists turn in their own wind.
