Cliffy is just upset because DeLay has a job, and cliffy doesn't


Well it's sure not because Sandy Berger was convicted of stealing secure
documents from the archives and shredding them. That's O.K.



Dan,
Berger got caught and is paying the price. A guilty plea to a felony is
nothing to sniff at. What makes you think Cliff is upset? :)
OTOH:

One day after a Gallup poll revealed that George W. Bush's approval ratings
had dropped to the lowest level of any president since World War II at this
point in his second term, a new USA Today/CNN poll brings more bad news for
the White House.

USA Today notes, "By 55%-40%, respondents say Republicans, traditionally the
party of limited government, are 'trying to use the federal government to
interfere with the private lives of most Americans' on moral values."

Also: "By more than 2-to-1, 39%-18%, Americans say the 'religious right' has
too much influence in the Bush administration," according to the daily.

Other nuggets buried amid the data include the fact that Bush's approval
rating for handling the economy hit a new low, 41 percent. That's down nine
points in just two months. Bush's approval rating on Social Security
cratered to 35 percent. What's more, how people feel about Bush personally
hit a new low: Fifty-four percent say they view him favorably.

And for the first time in the USA Today/CNN poll, a solid 50 percent of
Americans think "the Bush administration deliberately misled the American
public about whether Iraq has weapons of mass destruction."

None of this should be a surprise as Bush's numbers were a little weak
before he became "the WAR President".
In any event, I doubt that a fate exists that is severe enough to please
Cliff when it comes to W.
