1. About a thousand more votes, still the same %s. 23% is also closer to
what I think bush**s approval rating is as well.

3. I don't get the 23% crowd
I mean, who the hell are these people, really?

I guess the same that think Bush is doing a good job - but as delusional as that is, acceptance of the government monitoring your phone calls is absurd.

31. I guess we can assume that they are Chimpy's true base! So will
he finally get to 23% in the polls?

4. So much for the Rovian spin about Americans
wanting to be spied on for the sake of security.

I knew that as soon as the real info started to get out, the numbers on the first poll would change radically.

43. People *don't* like this. The poll is clearly going our way.
This kind of stuff is un-freepable. Nobody can hide the public's disgust of their government's wholesale spying on its citizens. WaPo tried to hide it behind a poorly worded poll question. Well, that accomplished nothing other than pissing a lot of people off.
