Liberal Spin on Congress's Low Approval Rating

Today on MSN.com there was an article about the Democrat Congress's plunging approval rating. According to the article, the reason for the decline is that the Democrats promised to "change course" (i.e. to cut and run) in Iraq and they have failed to do so. So the American people, who (by implication) are overwhelmingly and strongly against the war in Iraq, are giving the Democrats low approval ratings.

Nice spin. The Democrats are getting low approval ratings for not being Democratic enough. There are alternative explanations with better credibility. One is that they are pork worshipping, anti-American socialists who are squishy soft on terrorism and who want open borders and amnesty for millions of illegal aliens (who will be future Democrat voters).

Oh how naive can I get?

Of course, the American public is fed up with the Dems for not cutting and running in Iraq, for being too strong on defense, for being too capitalistic, too strict constructionist, too fair and just on political issues, too much in favor of tax cuts, and for being too adamant about secure borders. Oh yes, and for being too hard on Islamic terrorists.

Did I forget anything?
