CNN looked as if they were going to cry
...when they had to announce Bush's poll numbers today. They didn't even realy delve into the reason at all. In fact, the only reason they gave for his lowest rating ever is gas prices.


It looked like they were about to cry. The video is here:

scroll down to the green video box.

1. But W is off to China and Mongolia next week
to perform his role as corporate global king and the U.S. citizens be damned. Meanwhile, he is planning on cutting food stamps, head start, etc.

2. Hmmm...so he's going to be out of the Country when Fitz issues
the indictments? GREAT! President can't be reached, so I don't know how he feel about all the problems for his "good buddies".

8. Does he have a one way ticket?

Surely he can stay and send Air Force 1 back.

12. Well, it's not like he'd eat the cost of not taking the return flight
He's not paying anything when he steps on board that plane, you know.

4. What, no analysis and political pundits telling us what he needs
to do to get his numbers back up and making excuses for this poor excuse of a President.

6. W's presidency was put into place by world corporatists
and he has sold out the American working class. Maybe the people are finally starting to wake up.

9. More likely the corporatists have decided he's a liability.
They are giving his choke collar a good hard yank.

Bush is incompetent and his buddies are thieves. The powers that be that put him in office are distancing himself from him before he embarrasses them too much.

Why do you think that the corporate media has begun to point out that the little emperor is stark bare assed naked?
