“This administration is populated by people who’ve spent their careers bashing government. They’re not just small-government conservatives—they’re Grover Norquist, strangle-it-in-the-bathtub conservatives. It’s a cognitive disconnect for them to be able to do something well in an arena that they have so derided and reviled all these years.”

He's on the rebound, I swear!

How long until someone begins to talk about the President's move in the latest CNN/Opinion Research Corp (up two points, within the margin of error) as a sign that the President is on his way back to staggering popularity, or at the very least a number with a 4 in front of it?

Just curious.

*UPDATE* Here's one that questions all poll rating in general, and asks:
Then comes this result: 53% say that the war with Iraq has made the US is less safe from terrorism. What?! We have not been attacked since 9/11. So how are we less safe?

Based on this argument, September 10th, 2001 we were pretty safe because we hadn't sustained an attack in a while. And every day since Sept. 11th we get safer and safer simply because the amount of time that has passed since the last attack, and even if no one does anything to improve our ports and national security system.

So why is Congress wasting all this money on Homeland Security? Times the best weapon to keep us safe!
