POLITICS AS USUAL? From Time Magazine:

If the President feels bad about the nation's opinion of him—a meager 25% of those surveyed in a June Gallup poll approve of Bush's performance—all he needs to do is pick up that same poll and keep reading. According to Gallup, just 14% of people express confidence in the current Congress. That's the lowest measure in the 34 years Gallup has been tracking government institutions.

Given that the Democrats took control of Congress just six months ago—surfing into power, in part, on a wave of dissatisfaction with Republicans—it's worth asking: how on earth did this Congress become so loathed so quickly?

Whatever they are doing, from the look of things they will just keep on doing it--only harder.
