If W could have kept his favorability north of 50%, it would have had a huge effect on both the mid-terms and our nominee for 2008.

.....I’ve never understood W’s resistance to fighting back....

What evidence do you have that he is not fighting back? You really don’t know what he is doing.

Like Roosevelt, he is not saying anything except precisely what he wants to be known.

Rather than weakness, it is strength

[bert]

That is the correct answer. Quaddify was Saddam’s nuclear subcontractor.

Gee whiz, what were we doing in F.Y.R. ~ protecting the Ustashi, of course ~ gotta' be something more to it than that doesn't there.

One interesting thesis was that our sole ambition was to chase Mig 29s out of F.Y.R. (even though at the time the Russians and the Serb head of state could have been bought off much cheaper).

Could be it was just a stupid move.

Thanks C from E.:)

Could be, but I doubt it.

Okay bert if you think an approval rating in the low 30’s demonstrates “strength” then we’ll just have to agree to disagree.
