US
Could someone please remind me, because I forget... How the
hell did Bush get re-elected??
Question for all of you who do
not live in the United States: Do people in your area think that the US
people support President Bush? Do those people realize that President Bush
has an approval rating of 29%?
I'm from Boston, Massachusetts, and
darn it, I don't think I know anyone who would admit to voting for Bush in
2004 or who, when asked, would say that they would vote for Bush right
now.
Just wondering, -John

Bush said today he has nothing but respect for Mexico and its people and

learn that." --Jay Leno
"The Senate voted 63 to 34 to make English

ethics bill." --Jay Leno

The English muffin. I'm glad they took some time out to work on that."

they're working on to help us forget how much we don't like them in
Congress. President Bush was in Arizona checking out plans for this new
fence he's building. They really should let him actually build the
fence. Give him a shovel. I think he'd be good at that. ... But, he's a
busy man, the president. He's juggling immigration and tax cuts. He's
listening into our phone calls. He's got the war. He's got other wars
he's planning." --Jimmy
