Only 27 percent of Americans, by the latest accounting, think our national leadership is moving us in the right direction.
President Bush and his congressional followers sank last week to the lowest public approval levels they've registered in the five-plus years since Bush became president.
According to the most recent nationwide Gallup poll, the GOP-led Congress is more unpopular right now than the Democratic Congress was in 1994 when the public unseated the Democrats' 40-year House majority. Today, only 23 percent approve of the job that this Congress is doing. A thundering 70 percent disapprove!
Personnel shuffles won't change anything. That's razzle-dazzle. This goes deeper.
The conclusion seems inescapable: America's mythical "average" person believes that Bush and his GOP cohorts have habitually ignored the public's strongest concerns.
Jim then lists some specifics to support his contention.
The Republican Far-Right and their King Bush, act with a "frankly I don't give a damned" attitude when it comes to the "common man." They don't realize the protecting America is much more than just dealing with terrorism, and that is assuming belief that what we are doing on that score accomplishes that.
