“Democrats are positively obsessed with hearings…Ever since Watergate, Democrats have tried and tried to accomplish with Congressional hearings what they couldn’t legitimately accomplish at the ballot box.” – Rush Limbaugh, 4/9/04, 3rd Broadcast Hour.

One other public service for our DittoHead readers. Rush told you today that “the president’s numbers are up!”. You can read it yourself on his site, on the page called: “Truth Detector: Despite Media Frenzy, Bush Numbers Up”.

The specific CNN/Time “numbers” that Rush is talking about can be found on CNN’s site, on the page called: “Poll: Rice testimony yields mixed results for White House – Majority: Administration had no al Qaeda strategy before 9/11”.

And then there’s the part of that same poll that Rush didn’t tell you about at all. It’s on the CNN page called “Poll finds divided opinion of Bush’s performance: Support for president’s Iraq policy falls sharply”.
