Insomnia

I've been awake since about 3:00 a.m. I had a frickin' dream about waiting for a dental procedure of unknown origin and could not go back to sleep.

Do you know who else should be awake? George Bush.

Honestly, how does this man sleep at night?

If I have a big, or even medium project, at work that is troublesome (or dental dreams), it can keep me awake most of the night. It is not that I need or want to be liked so much, but I do want to do a good job. I want to do what is right for my boss or the client.

The way I see it, the boss or client here are the American people. Not Bushie's cronies. Not the middle east (who don't really want us there anyway).

But yes, W has a hit an all-time low in the polls regarding how people who think he is doing a good job. According to Newsweek, Shrub's approval rating is 28%!!!! ...and this is poll was taken after his veto of last week's congressional try at war funding and a forced exit strategy.

If there is any doubt that the U.S. folks want out of Iraq and/or at least want a frickin' plan or time table, I think this would be it. If people really thought he was on the right track, these poll times are pretty indicative of current thought.

And though I cannot remember the source, I saw a poll last Friday (5/4/07) that said 71% of military families want the troops out of Iraq. I would think that 100% would, since they have a family member there - but a lot of those folks still believe that 9/11 was tied to Saddam and that there were/are WMDs....so 71% is still pretty fuckin' high for that population.

If Bush were the CEO of a company......any company....an only 28% of his shareholders liked the job he was doing, he'd be out on his fucking ass.

I think presidents should get annual performance reviews - not just once every four years!

...then maybe we could all sleep.
