"....Mr. Bush’s overall approval rating has fallen to just 28 percent, a new low, while more than twice as many (64 percent) disapprove of the way he's handling his job...."

[lancdem]

3. Freepers

[Catchawave]

9. Sadly, my husband, friends and neighbors...

Thank goodness for DU, huh? :D

P.S. I live in a military community in the shadows of CBN.

10. CBN? nt.

[Catchawave]

14. Pat Robertson's compound

Christian Broadcasting Network, is across the lake from me, a neighbor :cry:

17. You're married to one?

[Catchawave]

I deserve the Bush Medal of Freedom :banghead:

failure off-putting!

[Catchawave]

Nice surprise :hi:

[saltpoint]

7. It's fun to run into you, Catchawave.

You're making good sense on our hapless president, as always.

:hi:

[Catchawave]

13. Thanks, missed ya OC....

...and don't be a stranger, missed you at the DU Jim Webb Victory Party :toast:

[saltpoint]

15. Now that was a victory to behold, wasn't it? And I know you

were on the frontlines from the beginning.

How good is that -- to be a big part of a successful Senate campaign, AND to upset an arrogant bigot like George Macaca Allen in the process?

Not bad at all, good person. Not bad at all.

4. Doesn't matter much anymore...

His approval rating could fall to the single digits,
and he will continue to do as he pleases.

[burrowowl]

5. UNLESS!

IMPEACH HIM NOW! Along with Cheney!

[caseycoon]

8. That's true, but...

it still made me smile when I saw that on the news tonight. With that S.O.B. & his pack of creeps in charge I'll take all the smiles I can get cuz they are few & far between.
:o(

12. You're probably right, as Tony Snow would say

28% GREAT AMERICANS understand Bush. :rofl:

[liberal renegade]

11. Something's

gotta give....ITMFA!

[thatsrightimirish]

16. haha

Pelosi is at 54%

18. I was at a meeting today

With four women co-workers. The subject of the TV show 24 came up and one person said it was too real for her. She just wants to live in her Pollyanna world and not know what's going on until the last ten seconds of her life. She was okay with the world blowing up as long as she did not realize it until the last moment. One of the other ladies called it blissful ignorance and they all agreed that it was best for them.
But they all knew what happened in the football games the night before.

That is how you get the 28%. Some people have total willing ignorance. They don't want to know. They just want to trust their leaders and be left alone to watch their TV, be absorbed in their lives, and be left alone.

20. Exactly. Go to any number of online newspapers -

including NYT, WP, Chicago Trib, etc. Look at their "most viewed" articles. About 75% are either sports or celebrities, or self-improvement. The rest are mostly video game and other tech info articles.

Sad, isn't it?

21. this was an amazing comment on that cbsnews.com site:

"If Bush was so truly unpopular as these Kerry Whitehouse predicting polls would like you to believe, Bush would have lost more than the average number of Congressional seats in the midterm election..."

No matter how many examples of rightwing insanity and stupidity we see, it still astounds me to read something like that and realize they're SERIOUS.

:wow:
