The latest CBS poll has Bush's approval at a dismal 35%/57% (-22%.)

Compared to other 2nd term presidents, Bush barely beats Nixon at 27%/63% (-36%). How soon will Bush beat Nixon in the race for the most hated President in history? I'll spot him a month.

The poll has other fascinating nuggets: 86% say the CIA leak scandal has great/some importance, while only 12% say it has little/none, for a net importance of +74%. That makes it the worst scandal since WWII:

  • Iran-Contra: 81%/19% (+62%)
  • Watergate was 78%/22% (+56%)
  • Monicagate was 62%/37% (+25%)
  • Whitewater was 49%/45% (+4%)

Of course, the poll didn't ask about the bigger scandal surrounding Plamegate - invading Iraq on the basis of bald-faced lies.

Nor did the poll ask about the scandal of Bush strumming while New Orleans drowned.

Nor did the poll ask if 9/11 could have been prevented if Bush had immediately cancelled his vacation after reading the memo stating "Bin Laden Determined to Strike in U.S."

Nor did the cowards at CBS ask if Bush should be impeached.

Impeach Bush Now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is not surprising, since he is the worst president since Nixon. I didn’t think it was possible to out-Nixon Nixon. George “Frat-rat” Bush did it.

Nixon trained the "leaders"

in this Bush administration. Remember, all of these guys came through the system of Nixon/Reagan/Bush41. Not only was it possible to out-Nixon Nixon (frankly, his crime was petty compared to the treason going on now), it has probably their mission all along to accomplish just that.

Think about it! Nixon taught Petty Crime 101, Reagan taught Felony 201, and GHW Bush taught advanced Criminality on the Graduate level.
And when Wolfowitz started the PNAC, they started teaching Advanced Fascism, (take a 2 week course in journalism at the American Enterprise Institute and you too can command an audience with a collective IQ of 75 like Krauthammer does). I think the cost of a graduate degree is $250,000 and membership in Bush's "Texas Rangers" pedophile club.

People laughed at me when I predicted the end of the Republican Party, but I still say it's a NON-viable party and will not survive the next century. Each Republican president is worse the one before him. They can't even legitimately win a presidential election anymore -- A democrat won in 92, 96, 2000, and 2004 (if not for the high election crimes, no Republican would even be in the White House right now). They have to steal elections to get the presidency. That shows they are a dying party. The people don't want them anymore. They get more and more corrupt until the whole party will explode in a million pieces. And I'll dance at the funeral.

Way worse than nixon!

Vince is absolutely right, this present scum is the wet dream coming true of all those preceding...

Their wet dream... Our nightmare...

Anyone still a repugnican today after everything that has come out is, in my humble opinion, an enemy of the Constitution of the United States. Do not associate with, do don't speak to, in short shun anyone who's still a repugnican, this after the true nazi nature of the present regime has come out and is there for all to see. Let's make republican and conservative the insult epithet that it deserves to be.

BTW... speaking of nazis and Reichtag fire and 9-11... has anyone noticed this?

http://tomflocco.com/fs/OlsenArrested.htm

about barbara olson (supposedly killed in 9-11 crash on pentagon fairy tale) being arrested at the Polish-German border just a couple weeks ago? (hurry and check it out, it may be scrubbed real soon...)

Yeah, I know, I know... conspiracy theory.... or could it be... that the crimes of these scumbags are much worse than our worse nightmare?

Is it so inconceivable? Wasn't the movie of the summer of 2001 Pearl Harbor (by fox) (the same thing deemed by cheney et al the jolt needed to reshape everything?)? I know, I know... another "coincidence"... Weren't all (OK most) CEOs of WTC summoned to Offutt AFB (Nebraska) by the oracle of Nebraska (Warren Buffet) on morning of 9-11? (the same AFB where bush ran to hide that day). I know, I know... another "coincidence"... Wasn't the first victim of anthrax the Fla. guy who allowed the pics of drunken slutty illegitimately presidential progeny to be published in Nat'l Inquirer? I know, I know... another "coincidence"... etc, etc...

We always tell others to wake up, when is it we ourselves are going to wake up to what we are truly facing here?

Or will it be when the "bird flu" or other strange pathogen hits and kills you and your family, (because you see, we're at peak oil. Capitalism is based on growth, itself predicated on growth of petroleum consumption. Oops, here's peak oil... since we can't increase supply... the only other possible solution is to diminish demand... and eliminate a VERY LARGE CHUNK of demand, that means YOU). Will you wake up then? Or won't it be perhaps a bit late? I know, it sounds a lot like the matrix where we're being harvested... which will it be? the blue or red pill for you? In any case be assured the tamiflu pill won't work for you.

You want to compare the present crowd to nixon? Nah, make a comparison applicable to scale, compare them to hitler... who killed millions... Now this crowd here, they're poised to kill billions!

Or we could become a

86% say the CIA leak scandal has great/some importance

Ok so why can't the 85% of us go to Congress to tell them we had enough? The dems found their spine, I think it's time we found ours. No marches to the White House. We need to go straight to Congress. Can we do it?

Indeed.

But does anyone believe that this low approval rating means that
millions of evangelical Christians (for example) are now going to vote for Dems in up-coming elections? There is NO WAY IN HELL. I am one of those evil knee-o-con Bush supporters and I too am down on him. But if you think I'm going to commit suicide and vote for a D you have another thing coming.

Trust me... Its the democratic party that is dead. Moonbat sites like this one only cement that that fact by alianating every-day Americans, military familys, JFK democrats...

Anyhow, this is a great site. Thanks.

Yes I know evangelicals

Yes I know evangelicals personally who are starting to wake up.

Being as you are a Republican who continues to suck away my money and live off the welfare of my work and those of Military personal without contributing anything to society in return, I do have one word of thanks: The pussification of Americans via Republicanism has sure gone a long way towards allowing me the opportunity to hire for a pittance. Of course morality rears its ugly head and I am only tempted.

The thing that really kills me though is the extent to which your party craps all over the military, refusing to pay them market wages. I hope the troops return the favor when they get back.

Your trashing of traditional Christianity and its replacement with greed and slovenliness is equally distasteful. I understand this explains why your Party refuses to do anything to defend this Nation from foreign enemies –conventional and of the terrorist sort – but you guys are sitting here as well. Your asses are in the sling as well! The Republican rejection of Science and discipline is going to lose us this Nation and should be rejected by ALL Americans. Being dumb as a brick does not win Wars. This is not about Right vs. Left. There is a universe out there that can’t be out maneuvered by pointing to Blacks or the Poor. Nothing has gone right whilst Republicans have ruled and you should reflect on that. It is not bad luck. Republicanism is false.

Of course you may be one of those men who considers other people's misery: working so you can live better, giving up their sons and daughters in War, etc. to be well worth it- for you. In that case, you need only be clever to keep yourself out of harms way and some of what I have said does not apply. I hope you do not mind though, that as someone who loves America, I am going to defend her against your kind. Feel free to get the hell out of the States if you despise America. Go fuck up another Nation. This one is too important.

If you wish more reserved comments try being polite when you barge onto private property.

P.S. I sure hope you either served in Iraq, rather than letting the troops hang in perpetual Stop Loss, or believe in old school conservative principles with respect to War and opposed this War. Otherwise I am gong to be angry :)

P.S.S. As an Olive Branch, can we organize a bipartisan dungeon to torture “entrepreneurs” (in the old days “swindlers”) who create pop-ups galore when one types in the wrong web address? If not, can we give the death penalty to “entrepreneurs” who let computers call home phones and cell phones to solicit business? If not, how bout the “entrepreneurs” who let computers simply probe phone numbers to discover your phone pick up habits so that they can hire a human to call you at the most likely time?

Yawn...

So what? The republican party can keep the evangelicals. They fucking deserve each other. The meat of the voting public are the moderates and the independents. Go look at a polling analysis of why Bush is tanking so miserably. It's patently obvious when your own party is distancing itself from its President that he's history.

Bush is hemorrhaging independents and sucking away any hope of keeping their chokehold on the American people. You and the other Bush enablers will eventually figure out that the fucktard doesn't give a damn about you.

Enjoy the site. Have a nice day.

Really. I would love to see the verse that says that mass killing of God's children is sanctioned by Bible verse.

While you're at it, perhaps you could tell me why it is that my God is telling me that the GOP is ungodly.

LOL!

The most succinct response I got to my shock over what had become of Christianity was from a Republican who did not believe in Separation of Church and State BUT did believe in separating being a Christian from being an American: With respect to loving ones neighbor one could not appeal to the voting booth. With respect to Gays one HAD to appeal to the voting booth.

Oooooookay.

Do you know what a neocon is or what they stand for?
http://www.newamericancentury.org/index.html and they spell it the way we have neocon. All republicans are not neocons, but if they don't pay attention to what the government is doing in their name too bad for them, as well as for us.

As far as what you think of democrats, what makes so many of you come here and expect us to care what you think of us? That is really beyond my comprehension. People like you are of no import to us at all. Come back when you have something intelligent to say, OK?

Old Mr. Republican here

Old Mr. Republican here seems to believe that ALL evangelical Christians are Republicans. I guess he would be shocked to learn that around 50%, or more, of them are Democrats.

The military is politically spread almost as evenly as the rest of the country (including "every-day Americans") -- 50% Republicans, 50% Democrats. Dubya and his political machine have never, ever, had a clear "mandate" from the American people, and have alienated those who believed their lies.

What these Dubya Kool-Aid drinkers also seem to forget, is that their own Party has been hijacked by the PNAC-influenced extreme right-wing. Just because they're being led by a bunch of neocons, does not mean that ALL Republicans are neocons. Only the Free Republic brand of rabid Dubya-addicts can't see the reality of the damage being done to this country.

And to be totally honest, we Democrats have our own internal problems with groups like the DLC Republican-Lite contingent. Unlike the Republicans however, we are doing something about it.

The real bottom line here is: the American People want their country back, and right now the only voices advocating the movement back to a sane, rational, Constitutional form of government, are the grass-roots supporters of the Democratic Party. Like most Americans, we stand for fiscal conservatism, and social Liberalism.

Hmmm

Riddle me this, oh ponytailed, liberal one... Why do the chicken hawks claim that the average Iraqi war soldier is a pro-Bush republican, but when they are discharged, they run for public office as Democrats?

Perhaps it's their experience with being abandoned after they've served their purpose?

It may also have something

It may also have something to do with extended tours, lack of armor, no clear mission, and that nagging feeling that you've been lied to -- big time.

If you listen to the typical chicken hawk neocon bragging position, they have turned a questionable 2% election victory margin into an "overwhelming mandate" to completely ignore the other half of the country.

His name was spank and he talked about beating Bush. I think that he was a little kinky. Also, he liked to be on his knees. I am just morally happy that he won't be committing suicide by voting for a Democrat. I know for sure that I won't be bombing and murdering millions since I will never vote for a Republican. We Moonbats must stick together.

Worse than Nixon

Nixon deceived the nation about campaign practices. George W Bush[ our terrorism protector] deceived the nation into war, is personally responsible for the deaths of over 2000 Americans ] and exposed the country to the potential danger of WMD's and the people who traffick in them by exposing someone who was responsible for ferreting them out. By exposing her, they exposed the entire covert operation, and jeopardized all the people and companies involved in helping her, and acting as her "cover" companies. He committed high treason against his country.

Hmmmmmmm, just now occurred to me what connects evangelical religion, rightwing politics, and corporate business. A lot of people on their knees, praying, sucking, brown-nosing, and confessing either to government agents or the priest. Yep, it all does tie together. There is a unified field after all!
