Gee Roger ... I would hate to see what you would say about him when you are having a really bad hair day. LOL

At the very least last weekends demonstrations delivered the message that a whole lot of people don't agree with him on his "war right now" policy.

Here is the link to the Gallup Poll site where they show the President's approval ratings and such:

What most other people in the world who talk about Americans as if we were all behind what is going on in the White House don't realize is that Gore won the popular vote and quite a lot of us disapprove of what is going on.

I am not a big fan of Greenspan, but I agree with his recent comments. I am glad of the replacements in the Treasury and the Council of Economic Advisors, but I think the focus of this Administration has been on war games and not on the economy because our President doesn't seem to have an interest in the economy or anything else if it doesn't impact his rich oil buddies.

While we're O/T: Not enough talk about Bush's other war - - against the environment. I'm far from being an environmental activist, however as a frequent user of the environment (ocean, air, mountains, rivers) I'm totally sickened by Bush's disregard for environmental safeguards and preservation. Either directly, or indirectly, he'll eventually kill us all if left unchecked.

Where should I begin (here's about 1/2 of the list)...

3/01: Bush abandons pledge to reduce carbon dioxide emissions
3/01: rejects Kyoto Protocol on global warming
7/01: reduces funding for greenhouse-gas reductions in developing countries
9/01: uses terrorist attacks as excuse to weaken protection of wetlands
10/01: guts tough mining protections on federal lands;
issues weaker arsenic-in-drinking water standard
2/02: rolls back power plant pollution standards
2/02: Eric Schaeffler, a top EPA official, resigns in protest of Bush policies
4/02: allows mining in Everglades
7/02: opposes Senate-backed renewable energy requirement
8/02: only major leader not at U.N. Summit on Sustainable Development
11/02: repeals rules requiring older factories to cut pollution emissions
12/02: defers action on global warming
1/03: plans to weaken Clean Water Act wetlands protections

This & his Iraq stance are the work of a very selfish person, imo.
