You can fool 24% of the people all of the time...

The latest CBS-New York Times poll said the president has dropped to 24 percent in his approval ratings on his handling of the war. President Nixon's Watergate scandal-plagued polls fell to 23 percent when he was forced to resign from office.

But the same CBS-TV poll said 56 percent of those sampled believe that congressional Democrats should fund the war -- despite a presidential veto of a bill that included a withdrawal timetable.

The White House has translated any effort to withhold war funding as a signal that Congress is failing to support the troops, tying the hands of the generals and acquiescing to "surrender."

In his remarks to the contractors, the president blamed al-Qaida -- the terrorist network -- for ratcheting up the sectarian violence in Baghdad between the Shiites and the Sunnis and the high-profile suicide bombings.





Yeah, *, it's Al-Qaeda's fault that you're the most hated man on Earth, and will be forever spoken of in the same breath as Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot... and Saddam Hussein.

Bravo, you fucking coward.

EDIT: title. What was I thinking?

1. No, if the treasonous M$M were not FULLY propping up The Unitary Executive ...

they would have either resigned or have been successfully impeached by this date. :grr:

Every day we stumble across new information of their deceit of the American People. And every day the M$M insults our intelligence with "bread and circuses."

I BLAME THE TREASONOUS M$M FOR THE 24% approval rating. If the M$M outlets were honest, his approval rating would be 10%.

4. That 24% believe the media is what is causing bush's numbers to be so low.

[ShortnFiery]

6. No, those demented folks are no more than 5%, our USA media is part of the scam. n/t

[MLFerrell]

7. Yep.

The "librul" media.

:crazy:

2. Doesn't look like his veto and chimpish posturing has improved

his image with the American people. I would say this is the Democrats cue to send him another funding bill with another time-line attached.

5. "this is the Democrats cue to send him another funding bill with another time-line attached."

Yep. I would say so too. Oh, Lord, please don't let the Democrats cave on this as they so often cave on everything...

3. Between 1,300 and 3,000 al Qaeda in Iraq; 80% of them are Iraqis too.

The "terrorists" we are fighting are Iraqi Nationalists who see us as an invading army of occupation.

8. "The "terrorists" we are fighting are Iraqi Nationalists"

That is correct.

"...who see us as an invading army of occupation."

That is also correct.

If anyone invaded Morgantown, WV, I'd fight them to my last breath.

11. Let's hope that never comes to pass...

10. what's amazing

is that largely discredited and popular this administration still gets to frame the topics. The media falls for them hook line and sinker everytime. And these organizations wonder why their ratings drop. I get more accurate editorials on this administration from John Stewart than I do from most major news outlets in this country... that's not a good thing.
