I should point out that both Reagan and Clinton had approval ratings below 40 early in their second term. Reagan ended up with close to a 70% approval and Clinton ended up with close to a 60% approval. We're now seeing Bush start to trend up.<BR/><BR/>Iraq is lost? While I'm sure Hussein and Zarqawi (along with most of the left here in this country) would be happy to hear that, it doesn't at all meet with reality. In fact the way we're dealing with the insurgency right now is right out of the textbook. Iraq is going extremely well. What's failing is the short attention span of the American news media that is trying desperately to convince people that there's a story to be had. We've fought two wars in 3 1/2 years and have a total casualty count of 2000. I'll take that type of loss anytime!Kannafoothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04548556572562266584noreply@blogger.com
