It's Getting Worse for Bush

The NYT/CBS poll has more bad news for Bush:

Two-thirds said they were uneasy about Mr. Bush's ability to make sound decisions on Social Security. Only 25 percent said they approved of the way Mr. Bush was handling Social Security, down slightly from what the poll found in March.
Moreover, 45 percent said the more they heard about the Bush plan, the less they liked it.

The Times also reports that Bush is being forced to postpone his plans for changing the tax code, which could include a flat tax. Bush may complain about "obstuctionism," but what's wrong with opposing wrongheaded and unpopular policies? A bad idea is a bad idea, period.
