DISCONTENT
Bush approval ratings are as low as they have ever been. More and more, the clamour to exit Iraq is showing results in polls and in Congress. Social Security reform looks moribund -- if not downright dead. Not a good time for the Administration. This interesting piece analyzes the effect of public opinion on the soldier in the field. http://www.salon.com/politics/war_room/index.html?blog=/politics/war_room/2005/06/17/iraq2/index.html
