"If the Enron scandal were an Aesop's fable, the moral of the tale would be: To enjoy a career in crime, follow the letter of the law while investing heavily in those who make and enforce the law." Message 19457408

Posted 11/2/2003 9:55 AM Bush losing support on Iraq, poll says WASHINGTON (AP) — President Bush is losing public support for his war and economic policies, according to a new poll which for the first time shows that a majority of Americans disapprove of his handling of Iraq. A slim majority, 51%, disapprove of his Iraq policy, while 47% approve, according to the ABC News-Washington Post poll released Sunday. Most Americans, 54%, continue to believe the Iraq war was worth fighting, but that's down from 70% in April. A new high — 62% — say the level of U.S. casualties is unacceptable. Fewer than one in 10 Americans say Bush has made the nation more prosperous, while 58% — a new high — say the president fails to understand their problems. The economy remains a major issue, with 45% of Americans approving of the way Bush is handling the economy and 53% disapproving. By a wide margin, 62% to 35%, the public sees the economy as a more pressing problem than terrorism.
