Who else was a proud member of the 10 percent club?

[cally]

Remember when * had a 90 percent approval rating? I was a member of the 10 percent who disapproved. I would guess most of you were also.

That is when I found DU. I felt so isolated when everyone was saying that the chimp was wonderful and I still hated him. I was so happy to find others like me. It feels weird to be in the majority now.
Other survival stories?

[greatauntoftriplets]

1. Raises hand!

A 10 percenter all the way....

[nini]

2. Me!!

I'm getting to say "I told you so" quite a bit lately :-)

[camero]

3. Yep.. here in that 10%

and all the people I talked to used his 90% approval rating as justification for his actions. Unreal.

[DrWeird]

4. Yup.

That's me.

I wonder how many people will claim they're retroactive members.

[mydawgmax]

14. Its like those who voted for Nixon in 72

I don't know anyone who will fess up to that (except for my parents of course) and he won in a landslide.

[Political_Junkie]

5. It was very surreal,

I felt like I had woken up in Nazi Germany.

[FarLeftRage]

6. Yes, I was always part of that club

and I knew, just knew that it had to turn around someday.

After countless lives lost and trillions of dollars stolen, do you think anyone has learned anything from this terrible ordeal?

[Zomby Woof]

7. 2nd time around here

I was in the 10% Club when Bush Sr. was warmongering and recessioneering over a decade ago. I have hated these criminal motherfuckers since Bush Sr. ran for president back in 1980. Something about them always struck me as fundamentally wrong with these shitstains. Everything that is wrong about America resides in their genes.

[Imperialism Inc.]

'88 was my first election ever. Voted against Bush because

I knew damned well he wasn't clean in Iran Contra like he got away with saying. Now that I know Reagan really was senile I'm guessing he was probably running the whole show.

[TN al]

8. I'm a 10%er...

...I was with his dad too. It felt lonely but I knew it would turn around, just like it did with his dad.

[Rabrrrrrr]

9. I've never left the 10 percent club

the day of the attacks, as I walked from the rubble, my hatred for that asshole no-good criminal grew even more, and I knew he'd do nothing but grandstand over the attacks and come up with a Christian Flag-Waving "Support me in my God-appointed faux-Christian quest to destroy the mid-east or you're not a patriot and might be put in jail".

The asswipe's never let me down - he always plums to the depths and bowels of evil and stupidity and jingoistic knee-jerk flag-waving fake Christian fake-pietism that I know he's capable of. Though I have to say he has occasionally impressed even my low opinion by hitting a stupidity level that I didn't was possible, even for furniture.

[yardwork]

25. I couldn't have said it better myself.

My husband and I knew he was an incompetent jerk from day one. I don't believe those polls - everyone here knows my opinion about polls! - there is no possible way that 90% of all Americans ever supported that twerp.

90% of registered Republicans, maybe.

[Bronco69]

10. I'm also a member of the 10% club.

The day bush* stole office I just knew there had to be people like me that were pissed off also. That's when I started looking for people who felt the same way. Thank goodness for DU!

[Catholic Sensation]

11. me

[parasim]

12. ten percenter here...

[PfNJ]

13. another one right here.....n/t

n/t

[Puglover]

15. I most cases I give anyone a chance

all I had to do was see that smirking ugly varicosed veiny hooked nose asshole and I knew it was hate at 1st sight.
:evilgrin:

[Old and In the Way]

16. Personally, I never believed that only 10% of the people were

"pro-Bush" after 9/11. That was a reach...his numbers began falling immediately. I think the polling caught Americans in a very confusing moment and Bush benefited from a surge of pro-America sympathy. He just happened to be the undeserving beneficiary of that national surge.

[never cry wolf]

17. I was out of step Charlie too, 10%er...n/t

[Paradise]

18. knew it the first time i saw and heard him,

right up to this very minute on faux news:

"they love me, they really, really love me!" :puke:

i'm switchin' to 'a beautiful mind'! could it be? abc sending a message? :shrug:

[CrownPrinceBandar]

19. 10%'er here.....................

but they never asked me. :shrug: Were you officially polled? Anyone else?

[catzies]

20. Yup. Always. Never faltered. Unwavering.

'Cause I got that moral clarity. :D

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

21. There is no 10% club...it was a myth

People were simply too afraid to open their mouths.

[Zomby Woof]

23. very true

So let's rename it the "10% Not Afraid To Take Shit From Anybody Club". :D

[ikojo]

22. Attended the anti inauguration rally on Jan 20, 2001

I have been anti Bush from day one....

NEVER supported this pres. I consider my LACK of support for Bush to be payback for EIGHT years of CONSTANT right-wing harassment of Clinton.

[voice of reason]

24. I never knew he hit 90%

how is that friggin possible?

[Spirochete]

26. Raises hand

I've never at any time had one favorable thought about *.

[Hemprus]

27. I proudly say that I never have and never will support that ***hole

[indigo32]

28. Me

my expectations of him and his administration that day were 0.
He's been a loser since day one.

[flamingyouth]

29. Waving!

I like to think I hated the guy exactly as much on September 10, 2001 as I did the following day. I did run to the (verbal) defense of my country, but I've always hated that murdering son of a bitch.

[Skittles]

30. ME, ME, ME, ME, ME, ME, ME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LIVING IN TEXAS I MAY VERY WELL HAVE BEEN THE FIRST TO SEE THROUGH THAT LYING, THIEVING INCOMPETENT PIECE OF SHIT.

[LastKnight]

31. me... nt

[Imperialism Inc.]

32. Raises hand.

Count my sister too and her fiancé(not DU readers). We were all over the Patriot Act and the Afghan war from the start.

[Gildor Inglorion]

33. O yes, Precioussss.....we always despisssed him...

and we still doessss!!!!

[BiggJawn]

34. HARD CORE 10%'er here!

I can't tell you what I reallly think of him. People have been investigated for saying what I think....

[proud patriot]

35. Me, I was Friend

proud of it too

[belladonna]

36. I hated him from the very start

Hell, I knew it BEFORE the selection, and everyone around me told me that I was just being too hard on him. I'd hear shit like, "well, he seems like a down to earth kinda guy, and how bad could he be", and I'd roll my eyes and say, JUST WAIT. Funny thing is, I haven't said I told you so to anyone lately... they all seem to be avoiding me. Can't imagine why THAT would be :evilgrin:

[Burma Jones]

37. OH Yes

Was much like a Tom Tomorrow of the time----- "Must----Keep-----mouth----shut----for----good----of-----country.........

I was giving the dweeb the benefit of the doubt up until, oh, September 12. Then, I went back to my original opinion of the skeezy scumbag.

[Nevernose]

38. It wasn't hard to be in the 90% club

All he had to do was stand up and say "we're gonna bomb the shit out of someone -- I don't care who -- and we're gonna blow 'em all to hell." At least on 9/12/01.

Me? I was at DU before it was cool ;-) .

[LDS Jock]

39. I live in Texas, I hated him for years before 2000

and never waivered in my hatred.

[Penndems]

40. Right here!

(raises hand)

:hi:

[AwakeAtLast]

41. I remember what it was like

living on a farm in the '80s. Even though I was in my early teens, that experience began to form my political beliefs. I knew this time around would be no different, and definitely no better.

[fortyfeetunder]

42. Hell, I never approved of that ....

I never thought of that so and so as wonderful. Oh well.
