Harry > Ole Charlie should have added the disclaimer that this is no longer a functioning democracy Surely that's pushing it a bit -- polls show an overwhelming support for W (24% of respondents) and the Congress (11% of respondents). Amerikan "democracy" is flourishing. reuters.com >>Deepening unhappiness with President George W. Bush and the U.S. Congress soured the mood of Americans and sent Bush's approval rating to another record low this month, according to a Reuters/Zogby poll released on Wednesday. The Reuters/Zogby Index, which measures the mood of the country, also fell from 98.8 to 96 -- the second consecutive month it has dropped. The number of Americans who believe the country is on the wrong track jumped four points to 66 percent. Bush's job approval rating fell to 24 percent from last month's record low for a Zogby poll of 29 percent. A paltry 11 percent gave Congress a positive grade, tying last month's record low. "There is a real question among Americans now about how relevant this government is to them," pollster John Zogby said. <<
