Bush's Approval Takes A Tumble

ECK,

It is posts like your last one that are the reason why I voted for you for PTS council.

I feel that although we do always agree I feel that you do not take the cut and thrust of a discussion as a personal issue should someone disagree with you.

This criteria is essential in an elected position on this board.

I wish you the best in your endeavours.

I look forward to crossing verbal swords in the future.

Cheers

BHR

Thanks Bill. I appreciate your support and your comments.

ECK,

Of the people who have put themselves forward you are one of the few I feel actually deserves it.

I feel that this council election has been like most elections here in the UK, the sort of people who stand are those who should be instantly disqualified.

You and a select few others are the exceptions.

Cheers

p.s. Enough of my blowing sunshine up your rear-end, get back to disagreeing with me.

That's too funny!

Seriously tho, it's nice to know I have support from those who often disagree with me. That is a good feeling.

I will work for ALL of you equally, if I am elected.

What did Clinton do wrong? He lied about a blowjob. Did anyone die from that? The correct answer is no.

Nope, nobody died but she did get "really" fat after that. Which is to be honest, more of a crime.

I think the problem with Bush is that he's suffering the same megalomania that many politicians suffer when they've been in office for a while. They start thinking they're not there to do the will of the people, they're there to do whatever the heck they want.

I, for one, will be glad when this crop of pols hits the road. I know a few people who will wave to them in the unemployment line.

Personally, I think that the people who surround Bush are constantly blowing smoke up his arse, telling him what he wants to hear and making him think he's in charge of something.

Just this morning I heard him talking about the possible closing of Gitmo; then you turn around and Rumsfeld is saying something quite different. Looks like they didn't let the president in on the memo.

NO comments on Bush and Rumsfeld's contradictory response to the possible closing of GITMO?

We're all going on a Summer Holiday,
bombing Arabs like we've always wanted too...
Fun and laughter on a summer holiday,
while we westenize your Nation too.
Bombing arabs like we want too

We're going where the sun shines brightly.
We're going where the sea is dead.
We've seen it in the movies.
You can kill an Arab to.

Everybody has a summer holiday
Doing things they always wanted to.
So we're going on a summer holiday
To make our dreams come true
For me and every NeoCon like you.

Odium,

All I can say is that Wierd Al Yankovic has nothing to fear from you.

That, and do not give up your day job to take up song-writing. Unless song-writing is your day job. If it is then give it up to become an accountant.

Cheers

BHR

I had very little to work with from that song.

Odium,

I know it was a difficult job, you just did it very badly.

Cheers

I find it nothing short of astounding that Bush, Cheney and their lackeys can sit there, looking straight into the cameras and STILL just lie about what's going on. It seems they are the only ones on the planet who don't have a clue.

The thing is, they have so much contempt for we the people, they do not fear being caught in their lies. They do not have an ounce of respect for the citizens whom they claim to serve.

This country is in trouble.

You know those sunshine boys and girls don't do military! They're too busy letching off the government and swimming in their fishbowls of academia!

I was just thinking the same thing. Of course they do not fear anything. They have the power. We don't. I guess when you hold all the power you have nothing to fear. It's like they know they're going to win in the end regardless of what we do. As of today no one in the Administration has been held accountable for any misdeeds and they keep looking at the cameras acting as if nothing is wrong and they are %100 right in what they say.

That is I what I find frightening. Far more than supposed al-Qaeda terrorists.

When I was a child, I was taught not to lie. It was also one of the Ten Commandments.

I once stold a bike. I was a child in gradeschool. I knew I shouldn't, but I did. My friend was in on it, too. We took turns riding the bike home. Being the dolt I am, I took it to my house. When my mother saw it and put two and two together. She made me take it back. I got a good spanking when I got home. I avoided stealing from that point on.

The reason for the spanking was, I lied to my mother, like Condoleeza Rice and Hillary Clinton look straight into the cameras and lie. Like Dick Cheney lies. She told me not to ever lie to her again. I didn't.

I feared her authority. And I love my mother dearly. She is one of the kindest people I have ever known.

When people get so corrupt that they can look you in the eye, straight-faced and lie to you, it's time to be concerned.

What's this?

Bush's approval rating is down?

And no orange alert?

Maybe too many sheeple have caught on to that....

Forget 'em all...vote third party!

Let's not make light of this. The next thing you know, al-Qaeda will strike.
