Presidential Disconnect

Sunday night President Bush was interviewed on Sixty Minutes (link below), since we were flying on JetBlue, we watched the interview. I also strolled the aisles and noted that while over 50% of the flyingtvs had been tuned to the football game just prior, less than 20% were on the interview. If this was indicative of the American public, they are not interested in what the President has to say. They have turned him off, unfortuntely, they can not tune him out of their lives. His actions and policies will be affecting Americans for a long time.

Here is the link to the 60 Minutes interview on 1/14/07
