A U.S. view: Who supports Bush's sinking ship?

Curiosity about the motivations of Americans abounds in Canada and there is no greater curiosity than why about a third of all Americans, even now, steadfastly support President George W. Bush.

Let me say I do find the lack of loyalty to political figures among Canadians to be a most refreshing aspect of your society. I'm sure Stephen Harper wishes for allies as long lasting and loyal as George W's about now.

Even on rabble.ca's babble message board there are a few Canadians who have risen to the defense of the American President, ominously using the same talking points coming from the evil lair of Karl Rove.
