out of the WH.

The Unindicted co-conspirator. Outing a CIA NOC. No can do.

He got four bounces in 42 months (they get smaller and
smaller):
9/11 - 36 points
Iraq invasion - 9 points
Saddam capture - 4 points
Reagan death - 3 points


* Approval Ratings. 
Don't believe them. They are probably 5% lower. 
He gets propped up, you know. He has friends at
