So Bush's approval has dropped to 35%, and even though you wouldn't know it by the way the media is handling the story, look at these numbers:
HOW IMPORTANT TO THE NATION IS THE CIA LEAK MATTER?
CIA Leak
Great importance - 51%
Some importance - 35%
Little/no importance - 12%
Clinton-Lewinsky (1/98)
Great importance - 41%
Some importance - 21%
Little/no importance - 37%
Whitewater (3/94)
Great importance - 20%
Some importance - 29%
Little/no importance - 45%
Iran-Contra (2/87)
Great importance - 48%
Some importance - 33%
Little/no importance - 19%
Watergate (5/73; Gallup Poll)
Great importance - 53%
Some importance - 25%
Little/no importance - 22%
So Americans think that the leak is more important than a blowjob (which, good for us, for a change), for which the President was impeached. Yet, turn on the news, and what do you see? Bird flu panic and discussion of Alito's Catholicism. Groan.
