Evidently the
president had an excellent week! You'd never know that Bush's
approval hit an all-time low of 36% in the latest AP-Ipsos Poll, with
the strongly disapprove share of 42% outnumbering the strongly
approve share of 18% by more than 2-to-1!

Someone tipped off the POTUS that Gonzaga's Adam Morrison is a fan of
Che and has a Karl Marx poster in his room, so the POTUS was happy
that UCLA had beaten Gonzaga, reducing Morrison to tears.  Any little
victory counts at this point!
