3. But his approval rating...
is around 50%. :eyes: Yeah.......

The wheels have come off this administration. They stole the freaking election (again) and thought they could get away with it, but the people of this country aren't quite as stupid as bushco. thinks they are. 2006 is going to be the cleansing of the country's soul. Dems are going to kick Slug butt and restore sanity to our government.

5. That can't be right....
even the talking heads on CNN called it "an historic press conference", I shit you not. How could FUX, a wholly owned subsidiary of BushCo. have seen it any differently? :shrug: Has CNN out FUXed FUX?

7. That is what they pushed, but what people really voted
for "was do you want choice in SS".

People voted yes.

Fox spun that as support for Bush.

8. Yep, same ol' shit from Faux "News".
Next thing you know when their polls shows 55% disapproval of Bush's "splendid little war", they'll only talk about how a "full 45 percent of Americans support the war!" :eyes:

4. It doesn't seem that they want to know what us peons think about it
I looked around earlier for some polls, too, and haven't found one yet.

Guess they haven't figured out how to word it to make the results sound good for the smirk
