1. Bush's ratings
Shouldn't we be more concerned about getting our word out rather than constant Bush slamming? Voters want ideas not negativity

4. It's the Americans polled who slamed Bush; this is just his report card
If you are intersted in getting the word out, here's another thread with a message we must get out: <http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=2352250&mesg_id=2352250>

6. A few things
1. If you are a member of DU odds are real good you don't vote for repugs.
2. I doubt that anybody logs into DU to find out some grand plan for the future .....
this is mostly about fun and kicking repug, media whore, & freeper butt.
3. Welcome to DU. But beware of the pizza.

Democrats Step Up Calls for Lobbying Reform January 5, 2005
by Congressional Quarterly
Amid mounting calls for tighter legal constraints on lobbying in the wake of the Jack Abramoff scandal, House Democrats appear to be uniting behind a sweeping package of proposed House rules changes. The proposal, outlined by Wisconsin Rep. David R. Obey, top Democrat on the Appropriations Committee, now has the backing of a majority of House Democrats, including Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, of California, and Minority Whip Steny H. Hoyer of Maryland. Among other things, it would effectively eliminate lobbyist-sponsored trips for members, outlaw the use of earmarks in appropriations bills to buy votes and prevent last-minute additions to conference reports without a full public vote by the conference committee. A few Republicans, including Sen. John McCain of Arizona and Rep. Christopher Shays of Connecticut also have begun pushing for lobbying reform legislation. Prominent former members, including ex-Speaker Newt Gingrich, R-Ga., are urging current GOP leaders to move quickly to advance a reform package.

22. Ahh, yes. Number 15.
Got it.

Sure they do. That's why Bush's message was completely positive, right? :sarcasm:
Like the wolves in the forest commercial. Or the Swiftboaters.

25. The numbers are completely legitimate (an average of the 15 biggest polls)
Here are the numbers presented with more detail and in a more traditional format (again from www.pollkatz.com):
