Not fully vetted.

It appears that Michael Hayden will be confirmed as Director of Central Intelligence. Unfortunately, not one senator in committee asked him about his background in science.

Two Out of Three Americans Prefer Clinton to Bush

What I find interesting is that Bush's approval in each category mirrors his overall approval ratings. In other words, only the hard-core Bush dead-enders say he's doing a good job and doing it better than Clinton.

But, can't we also say that the Clinton haters are the very same Bush lovers? That their irrational hatred matches their irrational love? Irrational is the key word.

I also noted that Bush is perceived as only slightly more honest than Clinton. Man, that's gotta hurt.

Thank You, Patrick Fitzgerald

Update: Rove has been indicted.
