Are Bush Boy's low approval ratings a threat to
national security?

If so, what kind of action is acceptable to get the AWOL coke head's popularity back up:

1) staging a shoulder launched assault on Air Force One. Or even a hint of doing it.

2) Niece Noehelle headed for some more rehab?


3) More links between him and the Saudi Bin Laden's found and reported?


Please add your questions or comments.

HAAAA, Haaaa, Haaaa.

2. Popularity down means threat level up.
Spot-on analysis there, 9215. History shows them to be the terrorists' best friends. And Bushler knows the jig will soon be up, so the henchmen like Rumsferatu and Ashcan will do all they can to prop up the Turd from Crawford. That is some scary stuff that, considering the cabal is trapped in a corner.

Specifically, I fear nuclear attack. A pair of experts, one from the State Department and the other from the Center for Strategic and International Studies, appeared on Nightline Wednesday to talk about the very problem. In all the talk of shoulder-fired Russian SAMs (no mention I recall of all the Stingers sold to bin Laden during the anti-Soviet Afghan war) old Ted K brought up WMDs. The experts said, yes, the Soviet-era backpack and tactical nukes are probably available through the black market.

So, this all means there's going to be even more pressure on the loyal corps of government officers to go along to get along with the Bush Organized Crime Family. However, their efforts to co-opt, bribe, blackmail, or extort treason may be for nought. As I believe, these loyal men and women are the real reason we haven't seen a mushroom cloud over a solidly Democratic stronghold city or state. They know Bush is nuts.

4. two types of "events" trigger terra-lerts
the first "event" is a drop in his polling numbers, I've been actively tracking this since Jan-'03 - Terror Polls

The second "event" is a holiday, although this past July 4th did not trigger any alerts or terra-stories. However, you can bet we will have one for the Labor day holiday and continue at least 2 weeks past September 11th anniversay.

CBS News Poll. Aug. 11-12, 2003. N=798 adults nationwide. MoE ± 4.
"Do you approve or disapprove of the way George W. Bush is handling his job as president?"

8/11-12/03
Approve 55%
Disapprove 35%
Don't Know 8%

7/8-9/03
Approve 60%
Disapprove 32%
Don't Know 8%

In a month's time AWOL has dropped 5 points in this poll. So is it any wonder we have the hype over the shoulder-fired missile? Meanwhile, Less Than Meets the Eye?
U.S. Government Sting Operation Criticized as Setup

By Brian Ross
Aug. 13— Administration officials are leaving out key facts and exaggerating the significance of the alleged plot to smuggle a shoulder-launched missile into the United States, law enforcement officials told ABCNEWS. They say there's a lot less than meets the eye.

----snip---

But what he did not say was just how much of the alleged missile plot was a government setup from start to finish.

For example, Lakhani had no contacts in Russia to buy the missiles before the sting and had no known criminal record for arms dealing, officials told ABCNEWS.

"Here we have a sting operation on some kind of small operator … who's bought one weapon when actually, on the gray and black market, hundreds of such weapons charge hands," said military analyst Pavel Felgenhauer.

=======================

AWOL is on "vacation", poll numbers are dropping, and Holiday weekend/September 11 approaching leaves little doubt that we will have an increase in Terra-lerts. If AWOL's numbers continue to drop as the presidential campaigns begin in earnest, we can expect that AWOL's campaign will be a campaign of fear and terror

7. And
should anyone attempt to discuss the truth, they will be charged with "politicizng" the issues, while in the meantime, the Right has coopted the flag as their own symbol. And the Democrats stand back and point fingers at the "Left" who would lead the party "into the wilderness" for not standing "shoulder to shoulder" with the smirking chimp.

That is why I am supporting Dean to spearhead a populist movement to begin the road back to recovery.

9. You bet your ass they are
Lets see. Its middle August, Bush's popularity is falling, we have recieved terror attack warnings, and the President is on yet another monthlong vacation.
Everyone remember what happened last time?

Yes.

We are being threatened and held hostage. Not by terrorists from the mideast, but by terrorists in the White House (well, ones that SHOULD be in the White House, if their lazy asses weren't taking vacation during a war).
By the way, if Bush sleeps ten hours a day when he isn't on vacation, how long will he sleep now that he is on vacation?

But I think its fair to say that we as Americans have learned a painful lesson.
If we do not support this president, we will suffer terror attacks.
Above all, we have learned that we, as citizens, are expendible.

Its disgusting.

But, according to the conservative facists that are now in charge, its our own fault for not being rich.
