[WiseButAngrySara]

2. yes ... its all the advisers fault

now i see

[WiseButAngrySara]

3. I know! But they don't play the blame game right? The question was to

make him look better.

[DarkTirade]

36. No...

it's his fault for listening only to his advisors, and acting like an ass when he gets bad news, so that they eventually only give him good news.

[faithnotgreed]

60. i didnt include the sarcasm sign in my post

so yes
its certainly his fault

9. Those numbers are terrible for bush*

I'm very curious to see the official polls when they come out.

Geeze, 32% found his speech excellent but 54% are not at all confident in him... That's like saying, loved the words, just don't believe them coming from you.

[WiseButAngrySara]

12. Did you see all of the other questions on the War, economy, Katrina etc?

They are further down the page, but I listed the questions in my initial post. His numbers across the board are horrible!

[Lone_Star_Dem]

16. Sucks to be him!

Oh, I'm loving this way too much. :D

Wish some poll would ask, "Do you believe him anymore?"

[WiseButAngrySara]

23. I don't think people are buying his BS anymore...Cindy Sheehan and

now Katrina; two unrelated events that really opened up people's eyes. I wish I could really believe his speech tonight, but he could tell me the sun will rise tomorrow, and I wouldn't believe it.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

19. Done! DON'T FORGET TO SCROLL DOWN! More Questions!!! nt

I am going to give you a treat and perhaps it will help you from being angry. It does help me a tiny bit!

[WiseButAngrySara]

27. I hope his numbers keep plummetting to Hades! They have always been

artificially pumped up, and of course during the elections there was SCOTUS and Diebold. I hope this liar falls flat on his face and never revives. He has made me realize how much I can hate.

31. LOVED the pics they chose for the polls

The Iraq poll had a pic of fallen soldier's helmets; the war on terra poll had a pic of MIA bin Laden; the economy poll had a pic of gas at a whopping $3.69. Sends a clear message, doesn't it?

[WiseButAngrySara]

48. Such a great observation! I'd noticed the pics, but forgot to consider

the intent behind the CHOICE of photos! It sends a very clear message, especially since it's an AOL poll.

[BrightKnight]

32. done - n/t

[newswolf56]

33. Done!

Voted the name of Bush's victims: "poor" across the board.

[tenshi816]

34. This poll allows you to vote more than once,

so the results are meaningless. The freepers are probably voting endlessly, and even then can't skew the thing their way.

[hvn_nbr_2]

35. The last question is kind of odd.

Did Bush's advisers fail him during the Hurricane Katrina crisis?

I said no. They didn't fail him. They certainly failed the country but they did exactly what he wanted them to do, which was make government fail and screw anyone who didn't have an SUV and a credit card to get out of town and stay out.

[WiseButAngrySara]

49. Exactly. It's a 'trick' question which attempts to assuage his fault in

this catastrophy. (But I confess I answered Yes...hesitated, but that was my 'final answer'!)

[DarkTirade]

37. I am liking those numbers...

44. Done

I guess his little charade didn't work last night.

Pictures speak louder than words and all the footage from the first days of the hurricane will remain in people's minds. He can use any symbolic backdrop he wants (like the cathedral).

I would like to see him stand in front of a prison. Right before he is admitted.

[WiseButAngrySara]

50. I visited NOLA several times, and lived there in 1994 for a year...The

posing and posturing for a history book photo-op just served to anger me. He destroyed the most unique American City, and thousands (millions) of lives by his failures. And now, his vultures are coming in to feast on the havoc that they created.

[livetohike]

52. I agree with everything you said

I can't watch him - haven't been able to since before the 2004 election.

I only visited New Orleans once, back in 1980 and have great memories of that visit. Just looking at him standing in this eerie blue light in the middle of one of the most beautiful spots in NO makes me sick.

[WiseButAngrySara]

65. I haven't been able to tolerate watching him either for a LONG time, but

I've been reading DU since pre-election debates, and I found out more than I need to know about this B*tard, whom I've despised since SCOTUS selection 2000. I've tried to watch him and Cheney, but I can't. Last night my poor dog thought that I'd lost my mind. I was screaming 'hypocrite' (Compassion? How dare you!) and 'murderer'! I had to turn it off for the sake of my beloved Penney!

[etherealtruth]

[Bridget Burke]

46. I voted, but we're seeing more than the results of "DU-ing"

Just seeing the disaster unfold on TV while Bush was AWOL convinced a lot of people. Or finally confirmed their opinions.

by saying his poor performance is mostly because of his poor advisors.

66. I think a lot of people were probably mislead by this question, as I was.

I answered yes to both, because both are true, but it makes it appear that he is less responsible for this horrendous disastrophy (heh-heh to paraphrase TDS), which is predominately his fault! I think the pollsters get the overall message though! He is toast.

We see over and over, that's the number of people who vote positively for Bush no matter what.

32% is the opposition. They are not a majority.
