Inspiration to Leave The Vegetative State
"The latest CBS News poll finds President Bush's approval rating has fallen to an all-time low of 34 percent, while pessimism about the Iraq war has risen to a new high. "
"In a bright spot [CBS is scraping the bottom for a bright spot, here] for the administration, most Americans appeared to have heard enough about Vice President Dick Cheney's hunting accident. More than three in four said it was understandable that the accident had occurred and two-thirds said the media had spent too much time covering the story. Still, the incident appears to have made the public's already negative view of Cheney a (sic) more so. Just 18 percent said they had a favorable view of the vice president, down from 23 percent in January."
Even with polls bottoming out, there's very little that can be done to stop the current administration, rather, dictatorship, from toodling right along implementing their now, ostensibly, unpopular agenda. Democrats, real democrats, not the Lieberman sort, will have to take back the majority in the house and senate in November. So invest in democracy, the Constitution, and a government of law -- contribute to house and senate campaigns that will make a difference. We have a little work to do on those Diebold machines , given these recent developments. So while you're making your contributions, give a patriot a helping hand.
Photo note: Stretching it, but I risked my Whole Foods experience just to snap this surreptiously, so I had to publish it. If you plan to stack your parsnips this way, please give credit to their vegetable display designers.
