Why is Bush even at 44%???!!!

[terrya]

That bastard should have been thrown out of office.

I really don't understand why he's still in the White House.

[skooooo]

1. white men

[kalian]

2. Well...this white guy sure as hell didn't vote for him....

[skooooo]

4. I know..but by and large...

..that's where Bush gets the bulk of his support.
:-(

[kalian]

5. I think he's getting his poll "numbers"....

from false data... Those numbers don't exist.

3. anytime an answering machine picked up, they gave him the vote

:)

6. Ask yourself how many votes Chimpy gets just for being CIC. Many think

they are registering support for our troops by endorsing Bush in the polls.

7. Not for long

The campaign hasn't even started yet.
Does anybody think that the gas prices are going to help the "robust economic outlook"
How about the prospects of a successful "handover" of authority and the resulting "peace" in Iraq prior to November?

So far bush hasn't exactly been Mr. Miracle worker, is that going to change??

8. The ffudge factor is 12% in favor of junior - Reality should show 32%

for little junior.

9. I find this absolutely astonishing too.

In addition to fucking up EVERYTHING domestic, from the environment to education, Bush has got us into this GODDAMN preposterous war thatso far has done nothing but create new generations of terrorists who will devote the rest of their lives to killing Americans.
He should have been impeached long ago. There should be angry mobs outside the White House every damn day.
This is just insane.
Can you imagine the reaction if Clinton had pulled this kind of bullshit? He'd be in jail awaiting trial by now.


shit. now local NPR station is doing a feature on the rise of radical right/white power bands. Fucking crazy world.

WAR is PEACE.
FREEDOM is SLAVERY.
IGNORANCE is STRENGTH.


Gee, who do you think will be eliminated on Survivor tonight? Oh, Michael Jackson's nose is news again. Where's my fucking SOMA tablet?

10. It's all part of this dumbing down of America, thanks to the talk shows.

Every day, you hear the same drumbeat, where Republican atrocities are downplayed as being "fraternity pranks" and every little thing that happens under a Democrat's watch is the coming of the Apocalypse. People are too damn lazy to read and think for themselves. It's too convenient to let someone else think for you. And when you have the saturation on the radio that the right wing has, it's no wonder this country is as dumbed down as it is.

Just to give you an idea of how over saturated the right wing talk shows are...on the first day of the NCAA men's basketball tournament, I was looking for a station that was carrying the games. I started on the far right side (how ironic) of the AM dial. Between 1650 and 1450, I could pull in 7 stations with a decent signal...six of them carrying Limbaugh, the other carrying Glenn Beck. And I know there were dozens more the rest of the way down the dial.

11. Bush has a core group of die hard followers.

I will be shocked to see Bush go below 40% or so. I now that Bush 41 was 38% but the country is more partisan and polarized now. I can see the approval number dropping down to 41% or 42% but not much lower than that.

Please understand that this is one place where I would be glad to be wrong and I would love to see Bush at 38% or lower.
