The world snubbed him yesterday on the Kyoto accord

Totally unimportant.

A shortage of fossil fuel and gasoline, described by Bush and Cheney only a couple of months ago, has turned into a glut with prices dropping by more than 20%

Yes, this "just happened". Same as when Clinton was in office, the increases "just happened". It is interesting to me that you want to give credit to Clinton for his "great economy" but when we have good economic developments under Bush, you criticize him for it. The fact is that OPEC sees US drilling as a threat to their immediate profits and responded accordingly. This is what happens when you have someone in office that doesn't just talk the talk, but walks the walk. And OPEC knows it.

He lost control of the Senate because of careless blockhead behavior

How is this? You have some nitwit Socialist that has been misplaced in the Republican party for years, and suddenly he sees he can make big news by bolting. Bush did what he always has -- supported his principle. At any rate, if the criminal Torricelli got his just outcome control would switch back. Honestly, I can't quite see on what basis you can criticize Bush for Jeffords' bolting.

Sen McCain had to deny reports last week that he was about to jump ship as well.

He may well do it yet. But what does that have to do with Bush? The fact that Bush won't be led around by his nose the way Clinton was is a good thing, not a bad one!

Also on sunday reports from Genoa put Bush again in the spot light as "not on par" with peer world leaders.

Bush's strong leadership brought about the ONLY significant development from G8. Where have you been?

He lacks charisma

Yes, well, I agree about this. And charisma is what liberals are all about. "We don't care about substance, but we want a leader we can bow and scrape to". Well, sorry buddy, Clinton's gone, and the country is better for it.

I am not sure it is accurate to describe it as assault.

To me, an assault occurs when a man uses his power to take advantage of an unsuspecting woman. I do expect liberals to see this differently, however. ANYTHING to support lefty politicians. It doesn't matter what they did, it is okay, because they're leftists.

I am hard-pressed to point to an example of a liberal with scruples. Even Joe Lieberman, who was previously believed to be a liberal with scruples, crumbled when the NAACP ran that racist ad. He couldn't criticize it. No scruples.
