Polls apart

Poll: Bush approval at 39 percent. Reports CNN

Who cares? Does George care? He's in his second term, he can't be re-elected so why not use the lame duck end of the party to fill UN and judicial positions with your ultra-conservative fundamentalist friends to help out the next guy? Voters will judge Bush a success or failure President not the Republican party.

Instead of the customary Presidential Library honouring his term Dubya will unveil a stack of DVDs and some paperbacks by that Da Vinci code guy.

Driverchris will be away for a while.
