FREEPS crying like babies over Chimpy's 34% job approval (CBS poll)

[npincus]

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1586693/posts

Oh my, those dumb-asses over there at the Freak Show are blaming everyone and everything for Chimpy's horrible, crashing plummet to the bottom of the Earth (34% job approval, down 8 points from last month!- CBS poll) I can hear their whining and caterwauling all the way over here in New Jersey!

Maybe those guys should have a nice falafel and a beer and try to look on the bright side: oh, wait a minute- there is none.



A uniter, not a divider. He united republicans and democrats against him. Amazing!

Count me in as a Bush lover. He literally couldn't give a rat's a** about polls. He just does his job and calls 'em like he sees 'em. He is a straight shooter and he just continues to frustrate the hell out of the Democrats.

They're trying to balance out the bad news...record low casualties in Iraq, Iraq not sinking into civil war, the economy running along smoothly...

Still has a way to go to Harry Truman's 29%.
And history looks kindly at Harry.

Truman made some decisions that made him unpopular.

He saved Europe from communism with the Marshall Plan.

Is Bush's plan for the middle east any less radical?

You didn't think this Dubai deal would hurt him bad ? If he doesn't ditch it Bush will be at Nixon during Watergate levels.

It also shows just how horrible the admin is at getting a cogent and persuasive argument across.

Haha! I love the MSM.
You can always tell when the seething, idiot liberals are about to wet themselves. The entire thing is comical.

He literally couldn't give a rat's a** about polls.
He should.

If he sinks the GOP in the 2006 elections, he will have an impeachment on his hands. A Dem House WILL impeach him for something, and the MSM will intone how serious and grave the allegations are.

He will then be distracted by impeachment proceedings (and a trial that would be unsuccessful) for much of 2007, distracted from the rest of the world's events.

The President's low popularity is a serious problem, even if Freepers cavalierly dismiss it. He doesn't have the political stroke right now do do anything against Iran, for example. To the extent they become a more severe danger, he can't muster support if his polls are in the low to mid 30s.

He better turn this around and fast.

CBS News Poll: Bush Ratings At All-Time Low

No matter how hard CBS or any other poll taker tries to make Bush seem unpopular, he's still going to be president.

But, even I, would urge him to resign when his poll number get into at least the minus 20s.

Yep, he'll probably not stand a chance at re-election.
Child, it means if the Dems nominate someone like Warner he WILL be the next president. The party of an unpopular president WILL lose the next election. Ask Truman and Nixon.

History is a harsh mistress. I for one don't expect (mostly liberal/leftist) historians to look back at the Bush years as a wonderful, exciting time.

They give grudging respect to Reagan because his results are difficult to argue with. Bush's results may be easier to argue against if he leaves the Mid East a mess and he limps out of office as an unpopular and ineffective president.

Anybody expecting historians to take a shine to Dubya hasn't been paying attention.

Bingo. Better to overestimate the importance of this poll than dismiss it. He's taking flak for the ports deal and it was bound to reflect in some poll. The only saving our asses is that the democrats are clowns. That may not last forever.

[aden_nak]

1. I'm sure they were just as skeptical about his 90%+ ratings, right?

[GrumpyGreg]

3. Did he ever have 90% approval ratings?

[npincus]

5. yes- after our national tragedy, 9-11

[GrumpyGreg]

7. Thanks--I had forgotten about that--not the incident,the ratings!

[GrumpyGreg]

6. Looks like they think about as much of the MSM as we do !

[FreedomAngel82]

41. But they think it's liberal

[lpbk2713]

37. That ought to put Smirky in the record books forever.

**Steepest decline in approval rating for any president.


He worked hard for the distinction and he deserves it.

[rockymountaindem]

2. When it comes to Harry Truman

I admit for the sake of argument that perhaps his plan and Bush's are/were equally radical (not really, but just for fun let's say they are).

So what's the difference? Truman's plan WORKED.

'Nuff said.

[Selatius]

4. CBS is owned by Viacom, yeah? A multi-billion dollar corporation.

The reason why they'd release such a poll is because the board of directors has become fed up with Bush, and they want a new big business man servant who isn't so incompetent and damaging to their cause of corporate consolidation.

The corporate world is starting to turn against him because they want somebody better when it comes to power and control.

[mitchum]

8. Well, fuck them and their boyking...

maybe they'll commit mass suicide in a fit of pique

[mcctatas]

9. I know how they feel...

It took me years to get over finding my dad putting presents under the tree...some fairy tales die hard. ;)

[deadparrot]

10. What alternate universe did this genius beam in from?

They're trying to balance out the bad news...record low casualties in Iraq, Iraq not sinking into civil war, the economy running along smoothly...

:wtf:

[Amonester]

30. Yeah, and this one takes the cake 2

Dem House WILL impeach him for something, and the MSM will intone how serious and grave the allegations are.

Now you wouldn't believe it if that "something" was anything like:

MIHOP/LIHOP?
LOOTING THE TREASURY FOR HIS HAVE MORES?
ILLEGALLY SPYING ON AMERICAN TAX PAYERS WITHOUT WARRANTS?
LYING TO START A WAR IN WHICH THOUSANDS OF INNOCENTS SUFFERED AND STILL DO?
TRYING TO PLAY GUITAR WHILE A MAJOR U.S. CITY WAS DROWNING AND THOUSANDS EITHER DIED OR LOST EVERYTHING??
PROMISING HE WOULD FIRE ANYONE INVOLVED IN LEAKING AN UNDERCOVER AGENT AND COMMITING TREASON?
TORTURE?
... and (what's next?) U.A.E. INFILTRATOR$(??)

ummm... "something" huh? :crazy:

($heep Coward$)

[Cobalt Violet]

11. What a bunch of delusional sheep.

No insult intended for sheep.

[ThomCat]

12. Reagan's results are difficult to argue with?

What the hell did he succed at?

He gave us the first megadeficit, be violated the law as expressly passed by Congress to stop his policies in Central America, He traded weapons with dictators unders under the table, he threw amazing numbers of Americans out on the street, and left far more struggling, he lied about the state of the Soviet Union as an excuse to keep pumping money needlessly into the Pentagon.

And in doing all of this he was a $@#%& puppet to Bush I and the various neo-con criminals.

I don't think Reagan's results are at all difficult to argue, you friggin Morons!

[Lorien]

18. My thoughts as well. They still try to give him sole credit for ending the

cold war. They fail to understand that years of excessive cold war spending destroyed the Soviet Union-and it almost destroyed our economy as well. But let 'em continue to live in their fantasy world if that allows them to sleep at night. Waking up will, in the end, be quite harsh.

[Mythsaje]

19. According to most of the brain dead

Reagan's the one who's responsible for the collapse of the Soviet Union, since his spending war with the arms race drove them to near bankruptcy.

[Sydnie]

13. ROFL!!!

I got quoted one of those responses on another forum tonight ... word for word. Seems they can't think for themsleves and much just post what they see someone else post!

Word - For - Word! :rofl:

[EFerrari]

32. Tell it wasn't the one where he should resign

when he polls in the minus 20s.

:rofl:

[Sydnie]

38. No, it was the one about Truman!

:rofl:

[EFerrari]

47. LOL! They probably think you meant the MOVIE.

:)

[zulchzulu]

14. Drain bamage from all that Repug Koolaid...

Why aren't these fuckwads suited up and in Iraq?

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

15. They're fighting the "culture war" here, dontcha know...

[SmileyBoy]

16. He's left with nothing but his base.

the 30-35 percent that is his base. That's all he has now.

[Mythsaje]

17. Let's hope this is prophetic

though I hesitate to give any freeper credit for the gift.

[proud2BlibKansan]

20. One of these idiots is actually comparing dubya to

TRUMAN and the Marshall Plan??????

That's about the funniest thing I have read here in a loooong time.

[TygrBright]

22. No... Funnier was when blivet was compared to...

...Atticus Finch!!

I snorted iced tea ALL over my keyboard.

What's next, comparisons to Ghandi? Einstein? Shakespeare?

risibly,
Bright

[npincus]

23. Sir Lancelot? Vlad the Impaler? Rasputin?

[EFerrari]

33. Eleanor Roosevelt, Mother Teresa, Joan Baez

The Lady of the Lake.

:rofl:

[Catherine Vincent]

21. What this ass wrote:

"A Dem House WILL impeach him for something, and the MSM will intone how serious and grave the allegations are."

For something? There's a list a mile long already this doofus can be impeached on! The republican majority in congress are too bushwhacked to proceed on it!

[upi402]

26. LOL! They never let the facts get in the way of a perfectly good

opinion.

[Amonester]

36. Yeah, I made a "short" list of the "something$" (see reply #30)

And I'm sure I left plenty of "something$" out (I can't go on forever).

[Texacrat]

43. As if they didn't do that to Clinton

sheesh. :eyes:

Actually, if the Senate stays Republican, I can bet a Democratic House will not proceed unless their case is rock-solid.

[0007]

24. Those dumb bunnies!

[upi402]

25. They don't care if he tanks the USA, as long as he frustrates US!

[Harald Ragnarsson]

42. Yes, that's what it's all about. Their "team" winning

They treat their country like they do their pro-wrestling or football.

[Initech]

27. Comparing Bush to Truman = blasphemy

[Lexingtonian]

28. Keep this thread...

Personally I think this poll is a bit of a blip, but long term trend is that Bush loses 1% of the electorate a month.

We'll be seeing Dubya poll under 30% before the year is out.

Btw, doesn't it seem like there are fewer people posting at FR every time you look? I wonder why that is.

[enid602]

29. hitman

HitmanLV hit the nail right on the head: "He doesn't have the political stroke right now do do anything against Iran, for example." Looks like we've done our job; hopefully WWWIII will be avoided.

[Katherine Brengle]

45. Hitman talks like a smart lurker--just enough dissent to plant the seed...

[SeveneightyWhoa]

31. I'm pretty sure Karen Hughes wrote this one:

"Count me in as a Bush lover. He literally couldn't give a rat's a** about polls. He just does his job and calls 'em like he sees 'em. He is a straight shooter and he just continues to frustrate the hell out of the Democrats."

[EFerrari]

34. Gawd -- don't give HIM a gun, too!

:hi:

[fortyfeetunder]

35. Cry me a river freepers!!!

They need to read Justice is Coming's piece so they can bloody understand how they got themselves into this pickle 5 years ago...

BOO F**KIN' HOO!

[Skittles]

39. stupid, stupid pathetic bastards

it is embarassing they are Americans

[FreedomAngel82]

40. LOL

How silly. :eyes: Sorry freepers but Bush will always be a loser.

[Disturbed]

46. I hope the Jerk doesn't get assasinated in Pakistan.

I shudder to imagine Darth Cheney, 18%er, as the official Prez. He is now the unofficial Prez.

[Katherine Brengle]

44. Best. Freeper. Comment. Ever.

The base blew up after Schiavo....
Miers finished it, and it's a done deal.

I plan to pick up the pieces later....We lose the presidency and the Senate, but barely hang on to the House.

Frankly, from what I've seen the past few days, we don't deserve to run this country anyway. We can't even get a trade deal through that was done according to rules set up by congress.

The Republican are deserting the president in time of war, like it does not matter.

I plan to show them that it does matter. It matters a great deal.
