State of the Union? It sucks, Mr. Bush: USA Today:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/usatoday/stateoftheunionnotsogoodmostsay

By more than 2-to-1, those surveyed say things have gotten worse in the United States over the past five years. "I love my country, but we're going the wrong way for sure," says Faye Sherer, 59, of Salinas, Calif., who helps run a family produce company and was among those polled. "I don't see the point in
Iraq, when there were other countries going through worse atrocities and we did nothing to help them."

6. Compare that quote with the next one given.
Chris DeCaro, 20, of Farmington, Mich., praises the president, particularly for his handling of terrorism. "He runs this country not as a politician but as a businessman who does things that need to be done," DeCaro says. He says public opinion has been swayed by a "liberal media" that are "defeatist" on the war and antagonist toward Bush.

The anti-Bush person uses her own words. The Bushbot uses Hannity's.
