1. We need incriminating evidence like White Tapes to nail Dubya |
|
...similar to when Nixon got busted for his cover-up participation on Watergate in private staff meetings. Come-on, America needs a new John Dean to come forward! Or, get Shrubs medical records made public.

2. Were you one of the 10% who didn't approve of Bush straight after 9/11? |

I remember thinking how much 9/11 would boost Bush's approval numbers because of the way that Americans tend to rallt around their leaders in times of war

a "secret" plan to end the war. That's why Nixon won re-election. He promised to end the war and said he had a plan.
Watch for Bush to announce the same thing soon.

7. The scary thing is that these guys can continue to govern with |
|
such a small base of support. Kinda calls into question the theories about popular government and the requirement for the consent of the governed.
The U.S. is clearly in a post-democratic phase. I don't see how this can continue much longer without the realization of some sort of dramatic crisis.

11. I never realized how low Raygun's approval ratings got. |
|
You would think the way repugs brag about Raygun, he would have had higher approval. Just more spin from the wacko political party

12. If you could have bought a put option or sold short on him... |

from point 0.5 to point 2.0 you could have cleaned up. If that was a stocks trend i would say they were in the dumpster.
But since it is the pResident i would say he's in the dumpster.
