NYT: Bush has stablalized his political standing.
Stabalized, huh?

In Address, Bush Is Seen Avoiding Large Initiatives

By RICHARD W. STEVENSON
Published: January 26, 2006

Having stabilized his political standing after a difficult 2005, President Bush is heading into his State of the Union address on Tuesday intent primarily on retaining his party's slim majority in Congress this year and completing unfinished business from his existing agenda.........

Hooey


Oh, the whole thing is just so stinking fair and balanced! And by "fair and balanced", I mean sourced by:

*Anonymous WH aides
*An identified WH spokesperson, who distracts the reporter briefly with an unflattering swipe at Clinton which our scribe is then compelled to explain.
*An unidentified "senior administration official"
*Pat Toomey, a former Republican member of Congress who is now the president of the Club for Growth
*Bush's former Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers, R. Glenn Hubbard
*Bruce Bartlett, Republican

There is one (one) remark from a self-identified Democrat: Mighty Bruce Reed warns that "we shouldn't underestimate the White House's ability to win a political campaign".

Boo! :eyes:

His approval rating has been under 40% for quite a while now.

You could call that stable. If you were the chickensh*t NYTimes.

4. They desperately want to prop Baby Bush up
They are soooo protective of him, like he's a little child or something.
