Laura Bush Complains "Good Polls" Never Show Up on the Front Page

By E&P Staff

Published: July 06, 2006 20:05 PM ET

NEW YORK Intrerviewed with her husband on "Larry King Live" on Thursday night, Laura Bush once again charged that "good polls" for the president never end up on the front page.

She also said that she did not trust the polls at all, because polls that reveal the president's low approval rating "are not what we we when we travel around the country." She added: "As I told you before, you don't see good polls on the front page."

6. The reason we have so many problems is because the U.S. is...
Showing signs of what plagues all Unitary Executive (Read: Dictator) type governments.

Due to an insistence on centralized power (Which doesn't afflict democracies or even
republics) only one problem can be addressed at a time. The other problems are left to
fester. It's the whole problem with a lack of trust and delegation. In a plural society
many problems can be dealt with and ended simultaneously.

So, Karl I guess the "one-party" crap is for the birds.

It's been done to death.

9. Thanks Jim Sagle...
I wish I could claim it, but, it's not original.

What I posted there is the soul of The Declaration of Independence
and the spirit of The United States Constitution.

It's a shame nobody studies it any more.

:thumbsup:

8. Laura, I don't trust the polls, either.
Especially one in particular taken at the beginning of November a couple years ago.
