So tonight, feel free to join me at Tonic, in the fond hope that we'll get to see the President issue a stirring call to arms for human-animal hybrids in the State of the Union speech.

On a more serious note, let's check those polls:

ABC News/Washington Post Poll. Jan. 16-19, 2007. Adults nationwide. MoE ± 3.

Do you approve or disapprove of the way George W. Bush is handling his job as president?

Approve 33 Disapprove 65

Do you approve or disapprove of the way Nancy Pelosi is handling her job as speaker of the House?

Approve 54 Disapprove 25

Wow. Pelosi is killing him! Something tells me the SotU won't help Bush out unless he makes his getaway in a hydrogen-powered car.
