Do we live in Bizarro World?

And this is the Associated Press, for God's sake.

Poll Suggests Bush Support Has Grown

WASHINGTON - President Bush (news - web sites) got a boost from the public's recent focus on the funeral of Ronald Reagan (news - web sites) and support for his Iraq (news - web sites) policy spiked over the last month as the United States prepared to hand power over to Iraqis, according to a poll released Thursday.

1. what is up
with not posting even a headline or a snippet of an article that's so frigging out of this world that everyone must read it?

Give me a clue as to whether or not I should waste my time on an article that's probably already posted in LBN.

2. He's polling very well among
Martians.

They are looking forward to corporations setting up their tax shelter headquarters and outsourced factories there.

3. Yes, these polls are totally bogus, PR attempts to beef up the Bush...
...image. Bush's approval ratings are going down, not up.

<take a look>

4. It's right. Bush got a Reagan funeral bounce, but it'll fade soon.

5. maybe they credit him with killing Reagan?
so that we could have this nice funeral. It's not hard to believe that the republicans that are mad at him will come home after the big republican pep rally that was the Reagan funeral. It will not last. He will most likely remind them why they are mad at him shortly.
