Oh how it must burn * to have a 43% approval rating knowing

You're right, it couldn't possibly be higher than the dimmer-than-average 30% threshold.

3. Only the 'True Believers' are on aWoL's team. Maybe 33% at most
the true die hard Fascist believers.

8. That number is as inflated as Phillies attendance was in the early 70's
(And probably now, if I still followed them.) Haha! Their numbers got better though. Chimpy's are just gonna sink further.

9. They don't care. They rig elections.
Plus, honestly, they so tightly control what Bush knows that I don't think that he has any idea.

Think of it, in the middle of a work day the guy is off biking in a park where biking is not allowed. The guy is clueless. At least Nixon knew what was going on.

Like Regan, he'll get out of any chargers by believable deniability (it's a corporate term).

11. Guaranteed that the 43% is high too.
He does have a 25 to 30 % w/ the end timing dumb ass christ talking
but not christ reading shits who think we can pray our way out of any
problem and that science & math are bad and that God wants them to
be involved in other people's sex lives and that homosexuality is the
devil except when they or their leaders do it and that God him/herself
loves America more than the other people on the planet and destruction of
the environment is OK because of Divine providence and theft of
election and manipulation of the media is OK because they are victims
because they love Jesus too much.

Sadly *'s people have stolen power and go about a non stop 24/7
mission to consolidate their ill got gains.

I sense a "Civil War" brewing ......

12. Inverse Proportionality is a Bitch
They do the 1990s version of the 'nuclear option' to the Big Dawg and his approval skyrockets.

Bush does the 'Uhmurika Fuck' in steps and with each one his approval drops. Drip ..... drop. Drip ..... drop. Drip ..... drop.

And, as already said, won't there be a delicious irony in his approval matching his number? 43 gets 43.

Hah.

Karma, motherfucker .... Karma.

16. The guy is a fascist
fuck the poll numbers. His long term plan as Liar-in-Chief was set in action by the Iraq war...what can I do for Exxon-Mobile. Plan B how can I fuck over the little people...hmmmmm...put them into debt beyond any reasonable amount (low interest rates for exorbitant housing costs) without health insurance, then change the bankruptcy laws to enslave them permanently and since they will work to the day they die, lets do away with social security.

Poll numbers? ha! It's not part of the plan!

17. Okay--so why hasn't the media crawled all over *'s ass like they
stayed on Big Dog's for 8 damn years? It's unbelievable the way they did everything on this earth to tear down a popular president and everything they have done to prop-up this very unpopular one!

19. they set themselves up....
the (bushit) media deliberately and very calculatingly became rightwing during the reagan years if not before, and they harassed clinton until clinton was gone....it was that media who put bush into position to steal the 2000 election and bush took it from there...911 achieved several objectives for the busheviks, but BLACKMAILING the mass media owner/operators was icing on the cake (if not the goddam cake itself!)....911 made the men who run the mass media totally dependent upon bush's survival simply because if the truth ever emerges (that 911 was staged by bushinc and rebel elements of the nat. security system re pnac) then they and probably their children will be exterminated along with bushinc....it's a fine mess they've gotten themselves (and the entire country) into...notice the number of bigshot journos who've run and hid...sam donaldson, william buckley, sally quinn, jane pauley, tom brocaw-caw, dan rawther, tucker carlson, kookie roberts to name a few....even stiffs like geewill seem awol when you'd think the news opportunities and stories would be heaven to news reportage, butt...butt...butt, they're scary stuff indeed!....lol! These people have no choice but to, in Trotsky's words, 'press on to total victory or total ruin'
the thing is the whole story's known about, and the details are in the record, and bush keeps fukking up so insanely you think they doing it on purpose (and not that they're just really depraved punks):nopity: :nopity:

21. I suspect much of the MSM's dislike of Clinton stemmed from
the fact that he was from the working class and many in the MSM are from the upper middle class. Bill Clinton went beyond what working class kids, even smart ones, are to aspire to. We are told anyone can be president but that is only a cliche. Bill Clinton did not stay in "his place" instead he used his brains and connections to climb into Bush's world and he did it on his MERIT.

I am sure there are many women in Bush's past but because he is from a wealthy family that is accepted as youthful indescretions.

20. Look for new "product" to be introduced soon to
boost up those poll numbers! Remember summer's coming on and soon it will be August and we all know you don't introduce new "product" during August.

The terror alerts ought to be starting up again. Nothing like fear to keep boost up those Bush poll numbers!

Any white woman with a feeding tube needing Bush's intervention?

24. It's lower than 43%
Factor in the margin of error and the fact that only those with landline telephones get polled. College students with cells and people without phones (usually low income) don't get polled, both groups went to Kerry by a wide margin.

They also tend to poll "certain" types of zip codes (ie white people). 90% of Blacks voted for Kerry.

25. Yeah, but he won't be running in 2008
Poll numbers are moot, given the Right's propensity to ignore the majority in order to cater to their fringe followings.
