Hey Harry...Take A Gander at These Numbers!
The other day, Harry Reid said he didn't want to get into a "name calling" match with Dick Cheney, whom he claimed had only a 9% approval rating.
Well, I'm not sure where Reid is getting his numbers from, but according to the latest Harris poll, Cheney's approval rating is 25%, while Reid's is only 22%. Heh.
Some of the other ratings are headscratchers...for example, how in the world does Nancy Pelosi rate a 30% approval? And while Congress overall received only 27% approval, the Democrats are at 35%. What the...? Perhaps after today's vote to cede Iraq to the terrorists, Democrats will get their comeuppance. But who knows? Considering how ill-informed many of the general public are, I'm not too optimistic.
Coming out on top of everyone is Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, who garnered 45% approval. While that's down from her performance earlier this year, it just goes to show she is still a class act. (I like how she told the Democrats she wouldn't testify in person on prewar claims about WMDs.)

SET UP AN EMAIL WHERE WE CAN SIGN A PETITION TO HAVE REID HELD FOR TREASON AND FORWARD BACK TO YOU WHEN WE HAVE 500 SIGNATURES.

Posted by: steve at April 26, 2007 08:47 PMI don't think a bunch of signatures will get Reid charged with treason considering, you know, that he hasn't committed treason. But go for it.
