PRINCETON, NJ -- While the Bush administration is trying to emphasize
positive developments on the political front in Iraq, the recent
escalation of rebel violence there -- in addition to public concerns
about the costs of recovering from Hurricane Katrina -- may be costing
President Bush some public support for his Iraq policy.

Public approval of Bush's overall handling of the situation in Iraq has
tumbled eight points in just the past week, from 40% in a Sept. 8-11
poll to 32% in the most recent CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll, conducted
Sept. 16-18. In fact, exactly 40% of Americans had approved of Bush's
handling of Iraq in each of the previous four measures, dating back to
May. Now, for the first time since the start of the Iraq war in 2003,
two-thirds of Americans disapprove of the job he is doing on Iraq.

They're asking the wrong question, but I suppose there are no options
available. The right question would be "Do you now see what an utterly
pointless choice Bush made by getting us involved in another country's
religious and political strife?"

Well, yes, but, that's a bit too loaded, eh? :}

Perhaps, but the right wording would require thought. That would never do.
