Why any indictment screws Bush.
Advertisements [?]
1) The press in our country, CM (corporate media) is brain dead.
2) The press in our is hopelessly biased toward corporatism exemplified by the Bush administration.
3) The various scandals of the Bush administration have either not been covered or covered in a weak, non linear fashion.
4) DESPITE THIS, BUSH'S POPULARITY IS DOWN TO 38%.
HIS DISAPPROVAL RATE IS BETWEEN 52 - 56%
5) Therefore, without the most dominant medium of communication communicating much negative news, except occasionally, Bush is on the ropes.
6) All the people need is one more excuse to push Bush further down in the polls.

Imagine an approval rating of 32%. Imagine a disapproval rate of 60%.
That's what a charge on the leak case buys the Republicans. They have everything going for them in terms of the media, they have a passable economy (despite the clear structural weakness), and they have a 'war president.' With all this, Bush is at 36% approval by the non corporate polls.

He's toast with any indictment. He's truly fried with Rove in the mix.

This is just reality.

Now it's our turn to get our act together and get some people elected and make sure the elections are fair enough to reflect the full force of public sentiment.
