Quote Of The Week

"No, Larry Craig walked over to me and was talking to me about some procedural issues. He is a member of the Senate. So am I."

Sen. Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.), snapping back at a reporter after he was asked whether he approached Sen. Larry Craig (R-Gomorrah) on the Senate floor yesterday.

And speaking of unpopular politicians, this is interesting:

President George W. Bush and the U.S. Congress registered record-low approval ratings in a Reuters/Zogby poll released on Wednesday, and a new monthly index measuring the mood of Americans dipped slightly on deepening worries about the economy.

Only 29 percent of Americans gave Bush a positive grade for his job performance, below his worst Zogby poll mark of 30 percent in March. A paltry 11 percent rated Congress positively, beating the previous low of 14 percent in July.

Do you think these low poll numbers -- both for Bush and for Congress -- might have something to do with the Iraq Debacle?
