Did you know that
  • More Americans have a favorable view of Democrats than of Republicans? More Americans have an unfavorable view of Republicans than of Democrats?
  • More Americans think Bush will divide the country than will unite it?
  • A majority of Americans oppose amending the Constitution to ban same-sex marriage? That they also support domestic partnerships for same-sex couples, at minimum?
  • A plurality of Americans say that invading Iraq was a mistake?
  • Two-thirds of Americans say it's more important to cut the deficit than it is to cut taxes?

Maybe we're not as dumb a country as I think. Oh, and mandate, MY ASS! Read the whole article.

On the other hand, we DID reelect Bush. And 70% of Americans cite the negative effect of popular culture on moral standards as a big concern.

How ironic. We've put in Washington a bunch of people who are opposed to using the powers of the government to solve the problems government can solve... but we want our government to solve the cultural problems which it can't do anything about! What are they going to do, ban MTV? (Could they start with Fox News, please?)
