Quote: "The Times Herald-Record is conducting a poll at http://www.th-record.com/

asking: Do you approve of President Bush's handling of the Iraq war?

Do the reality-based community a favor and let them know how you feel. With tonight's propaganda effort, this should help to dampen their attempted rally of public opinion."

Fully seconded.

[Aussie Dasher]

FReeped. I'm with the President.

[CitizenM]

Thanks, if we don't support the Prez, it will appear he does not have the support of the conservatives. While some might not think he is being strong enough, liberals are out to vote against him and the whole effort, and have timed this in conjunction with his speech tonight. All so they can use these results against him after he speaks.

"Yes" is up to 22%

IMHO The problem is that the DU crowd spends all day FReeping polls, as if it matter a wit.

I think the poll really looks STUPID when the numbers are as you post.

Vote NO and keep the stupidity up, why fight the DUmmies?

I''ll vote, but I won't allow you or anyone else tell me how to vote. My vote will be, "No", I do not approve. Because I think our effort has been weak. You don't have to be a DU idiot to vote no. Many patriots will vote no for the same reason I will. Are we suppossed to be sheep and just do as you say??

HEY....READ! That was a quote from the website, not mine. See the quotation marks, and I even included the word "Quote." So, your reaction was uncalled for.

Well, Sir Citizen (regular address form "citizen X" is purely Soviet, and that's why I would not like to use it. As soon as one was addressed "citizen" instead of "comrade" one instantly knew one was in trouble), the handling of the Iraq war by President Bush could be disapproved of, and not only "from the left" but "from the right" as well. Regrettably, the poll offered does not differentiate. One could trust that the only leftists on this forum would be DU trolls, and thus the preponderance of disapproval ought to be read as coming "from the right".

Ok, I apologize..But let me turn my wrath to the person who originated it! Thanks.

Exactly why I posted this: To show what they are doing/saying on the liberal website, and give others on FR a chance to vote too. Since it is a newspaper poll (Times-Herald) I don't think many were aware of it. Personally, I support Bush and the military guidance he has been given.
