Pollster.com's Professor Franklin's latest update on Presidential approval is pretty astounding. Since some time in late April, approval has been in freefall, and where it will land, no one can know.
The lowest approval ever recorded was 23%, seven months before President Nixon resigned in a…
Who needs lawyers when you're above the law?
Sometime after the end of the Bush Presidency, we will no doubt learn that all the staff actually had been gone for months, replaced by cardboard cutouts of themselves.
Or by aliens, from the planet Capgras.
Actually, I think it is more likely that Congress has been replaced by cardboard cutouts.
