Over the river and through the woods, to Sadaam's house we go: A new poll of 900 registered voters by Fox News shows the president's job approval rating holding steady at 73 percent. The same poll shows that the job approval rating accorded Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein by Americans is not as high. According to the figures, 75 percent of those surveyed would approve if President Bush authorized the CIA to use deadly force to bring down the Iraqi leader and that 55 percent of those surveyed think the United States should just go ahead and assassinate him. The survey also indicates there is division as to who presents a greater threat to the United States. Among respondents, 36 percent said Hussein poses a greater danger than Osama bin Laden while 21 percent think bin Laden is more dangerous. The poll was conducted June 18 and 19 and had a margin of error of +/- 3 percent. (UPI's Capital Comment, Jun. 24)
