One more scandal.

The Evangelicals aren't going to like this one bit.

2. Just sooner.
He was headed for the 20's anyway. This will just make it happen much more quickly. Certainly by the end of May.

3. He might already be.
With the new poll showing him at 33% and a margin of error at 4%, he could be at 29%.

6. Seem's like he might win for most scandals.
You know, I just love this stuff. These are the meanest, awfulist bunch of characters and I just love seeing them fall over morality stuff.

13. Oh, they are way ahead on the Scandal Meter.
Clinton is probably like 154 on the scandal meter when it comes to dishonest presidents. He is not even a contender.

8. I don't think so. The Evangelicals I know all thought Bush was
this straight shooter and religious and conservative.

They are going to hate all of these corruption and morality scandals.

If they feel like they were just used and were completely mislead and played for fools I think you will see a revolt.

10. just wondering how that squares with "reformed" sinners
like Swaggart and Jim Baker. Haven't those 2 made a comeback of sorts? How do these evangelicals find forgiveness for the sins of their own, but turn a cold shoulder to Bill Clinton's mea culpa?

I hope you are right... if the MSM lets this scandal ("Fornigate") see the light of day.

12. I don't think Swaggart and Baker will ever come back in
Edited on Sat May-06-06 07:57 AM by leftyladyfrommo
any meaningful way. Man I can't stand to watch either one of them - they are such wierdos.

I know a lot of people here don't have much good to say about the Evangelicals. But I know some of these people really well and they aren't going to go for this scandal after scandal stuff. They are especially not going to go for this hooker and boose and gambling stuff. They really are honest straight shooters. Now I don't agree with them on stuff but I absolutely trust them. They try to do the right thing. It's just that their definition of "right" is a lot different than mine.

But the people I know are very big on "family" and they are not going to like what is going on now.

15. What do the Evangelicals think of this photo?
Perhaps a good reminder as a bumper sticker when one is buying gas.

14. "The Evangelicals aren't going to like this one bit"
Bush and the GOP are the abomination, that Pat, Jerry and the churches campaigned for.

17. Well, those guys are power brokers. And sleazy as hell.
But they certainly are not all Evangelicals. I think there were a whole lot of very simple minded people that swallowed this thing hook line and sinker. But that doesn't mean that they won't see thru it if it gets as bad as it seems to be getting now.

And paybacks can be hell.

18. No, I think Bush could eat babies on live TV and
his numbers won't go below 30%. I think there are lots of people who will stand by our "wartime President" as long as he is in office. You know, the whole "united we stand" thing. But as soon as he is gone, many of them will admit he sucked as a President.

19. I hope people won't continue to be that stupid.
But the capacity for pure stupidity in the human race continues to amaze me. You could be absolutely correct.

20. No. A Kennedy "scandal"
means that the RW hypocrites will rally around their boy once more, and all Republican transgressions will be downplayed or even ignored by the media in favor of Kennedy coverage. I expect Bush to get a bump in support. Because, you know, when a Democrat does something it's always far worse than when a Republican does the exact same thing (i.e., Rush=persecuted, Kennedy=lowlife drug addict).

I hope I'm wrong, wrong, wrong, however. It's just that we've been burned too much in the past hoping that the MSM does its job properly and I'm somewhat cynical nowadays.

21. you're not wrong......lookit what's happening vis a vis Kennedy now.
contrast that with the NON coverage of the Watergategate scandal, which WILL implicate Goss.

it's all about the media's direct complicity, via its ownership, in the fascist regime that stole the last two presidential elections

22. I think the Kennedy's have more than paid their debt.
And I wish people would just leave that family alone.
