Monday December 05, 2005--Forty-eight percent (48%) of American adults
approve of the way George W. Bush is performing his role as President.
That's the President's highest rating since October 8.

What do you attribute the increase to, considering how absolutely
nothing has changed in the past 10 days?

I already listed the reasons in another post last week:

"People care about the stock market hitting a 4 1/2 year high, the low
unemployment rate, the increased spending on big-ticket manufactured
goods,
the dropping fuel prices, and the improving consumer confidence
numbers."

Things like Joe Lieberman's op-ed piece in the WSJ are just icing on the
cake. ;-)



ROFL!


Did the stock market not just hit a 4 1/2 year high?

Did unemployment numbers not fall again on Friday?

Did consumer retail spending not increase by 22% over the Thanksgiving
weekend?

Did spending on big-ticket manufactured goods not increase over last year?

Did gas prices not fall by nearly 20% in the last 5 weeks?

Did Lieberman not just write a piece in the WSJ about the improving
conditions in Iraq?

I'm curious as to what is making you ROFL?


I left one thing off:
Support from Bush's base returned after Miers withdrew and Alito was
nominated.
