CNN

Time Poll: 50% say country better off with Bush as president 40% say country better off with Clinton as president

i saw this on CNN with Wolf Blitzer... and he asked a former Clinton speechwriter what he made of that... the speechwriter completely avoided answering the question... he said something like, "it's interesting that Bush is at 50%... which is what he started with in 2000, so this means the country is still divided... blah, blah, blah... i wonder if he's going to mention WMD in his SOU speech... blah, blah, blah."

i hate it when hosts don't hold their guests accountable... Wolf let the conversation go off on a tangent that had nothing to do with the poll...

Typical of them (Dems) to ignore the facts that don't suit them.

What a waste of time. Why not President Bush and Rutherford B. Hayes? Hayes won't ever be president again either.

Did Wolfie ask this jerk if he held Clinton accountable for his LIE during a SOUA that "No missiles are pointed at America's children tonight?"

THAT was a lie during a state of the union address. What the President said, is NOT!

Wolf Blitzer? ...... you're better off listening to water boil.

At least if you're close enough, the steam will clear your sinuses.

One did...almost.

Howard Dean was being interviewed on C-SPAN and he said he was going to balance the budget but it would take 6-7 years. The interviewer continued (where most would not) and asked him how does he propose to do that? His answer?

He said, "Well, we haven't worked out the details yet".

No details, eh Howard? What an imp.

Of course, liberals fawn all over this guy simply because he says he says he's going to do something not giving a rat's behind that he has no idea how.

hahaha!! yes, i know... i was flipping through the channels when i first turned on the television... stopped there because the poll caught my attention... there were other poll numbers that had to do with "great" or "good" or "poor"... i did notice that in two areas where there was a 5% difference, (Clinton got 5% higher in the "poor" section) Wolf said Bush and Clinton were the same.

Like the fact Bush is outperforming Clinton in every possible arena ... from copping Clinton's exact proposal on ESCR to perpetuating his legacy in Iraq.

Here is the FR Newsweek poll:

Do you read Newsweek:

A) When there is nothing left to read in the Dentist's office.

B) When there is nothing left to read in the bathroom.

C) Never, it is a totally boring piece of trash.

D) I have to, I am doing research for my child's left leaning school report due tomorrow and need some crap-ola the teacher will love.

When the Demo guests got on TV, they have to make sure they get that day's talking-points in -- so there's no time to answer the question, even if they wanted to.

Heck no! TIME magazine is so far to left its makes me sick. It was once a respected magazine, but now is nothing more than pool of Socialist and Communist journalist that pretend their objective, fair, and balanced.

Not since I woke up to the fact that they have no idea that there is no moral equivolence between the terrorists who intentioanlly target civilians and those who try to stop them....

That's excellent news.

That means Clinton's back where he started in '92, 6 out 10 people aren't buying his schtick. For the life of me though, I still can't believe he was elected first time round. I mean I know that 'Larry, I don't want to run" Perot was the real cane in the spokes in '92, but still how could that many people fall for that manrack sporting, lower-lip biting, infidel?
