Buyer's Regret?

@ 04:36 PM (94 months, 10 days ago)

Looks like some of those folks who pulled the lever for the Bush/Cheney ticket are regretting their purchase! 

Rasmussen Reports shows that Bush's approval rating is just 43%, the lowest the organization has ever recorded.

So what have we learned here? It usually helps to actually educate yourself about the issues, and the candidates, before you go into the voting booth!  Imagine that!

Show Me the Paper

@ 04:26 PM (94 months, 10 days ago)

Oh, how convenient! The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library is missing a file folder that contained papers on John G. Robert's work in the area of affirmative action.

The papers, which would have shed more light on Roberts' views on affirmative action, were reviewed by lawyers from the Justice Department and the White House last month.  Archivists say the papers were returned, but now they are missing, and no duplicates were made before the lawyers started reviewing them.
