Wondering how many robert byrd avenues were created by the new budget? the news item below sheds some light. It says that the political elites are anything but in the eyes of those who see the carve out for what it is. Oligarchic hegemony badly in need of input but whose sensory organs are saturated with the largess of easy pickings.. Americans' approval of Congress sinks to new low By Richard Wolf, USA TODAY WASHINGTON — As President Bush and Congress battle on the budget, homeland security and the war in Iraq, Americans blame both Republicans and Democrats for the impasse. By more than 2-to-1 margins, they give the president, congressional Democrats and congressional Republicans unfavorable ratings in a USA TODAY/Gallup Poll released Monday. While Bush's ratings have been poor for most of the past two years, the two parties in Congress hit new lows in the poll.
