Bob Harris via This Modern World:
As you’ve no doubt heard, Bush’s approval rating has fallen to 35. Maybe America is starting to realize that secret prisons and endless war aren’t really the best government we can possibly hope for.
Dick Cheney, in the same poll, has a 19 percent approval rating.
How low is 19 percent?
According to previous surveys (scroll down in the link), that’s two points less popular than cheating on your spouse and seven points behind corporal punishment in schools.
Dick Cheney is now comfortably nestled deep in what can be politely called lunatic territory. As I’ve been pointing out for years, twenty or thirty percent of Americans believe any insane thing you can imagine.
Dick Cheney is now 18 points behind the number of people who believe alien beings have secretly contacted the U.S. government.
