/shrug. I'll take the approval rating correction at face value because I don't much care and it alters in no way the substance of my point. If a few percentage points and the surprising claim that almost 70% of the country is democrats make you feel good, have at it. As to "dramatic", I'll interpret the lack of substantive rebuttal as you backing away from what was really a piece of silly quibbling in the first place. And, I don't care much one way or the other - Bush is hardly the first or only politician to take various steps to expand his authority.
