Since the first poster ended up with that post removed, I think it's a good idea to make our NordP the Toaster Princess tonight.

You're welcome.

You know how some days there are a lot of pictures that are nice, or so-so, and then one just gobsmacks you? Michelle and W got the thumbs on the basis of the gobsmack factor.

Thought of you today. Was in La Jolla having lunch with a FReeper friend. Enjoying the seals bopping around the swimmers.

President of China looks so "normal" compared to the "Chia Pet" from North Korea!

Now that you mention it, yes!

I think at present I will use my all purpose short sighted ones for the computer rather than try the varifocal at first and then gradually use them and see how it goes but of course I need to do that within the 30 days.

Oh, I LOVE that place. We took the kids there when they were young (maybe 15 years ago).

One of the most gorgeous places on earth, for sure!

I think what happened with W pulling Hu's coat was that W didn't speak enough Chinese to say Stop, so he used the International Tug move. Pretty cute picture.

My mom had a really hard time switching from regular prescription to bifocals. She wouldn't drive with them for a really long time.

POLLS, SCHMOLLS!

During Reagan's presidency, one genuinely independent pollster provided reliable polling data on a wide range of issues, including the President's job approval rating. That one pollster was the Gallup Organization. [Harris and Newsweek also produced polls, with additional pollsters picking up the slack during election years, but these pollsters were always viewed as 'bit' players compared to Gallup.]

In the 1980s, Gallup could still produce a REPRESENTATIVE polling sample of 1,500 - 2,500 adults by eliciting a 'reliable' 60% response rate using standard telephone technology . . . NO MORE!

We now have almost 30 'media-owned' polling organizations -- who regularly ‘manufacture’ skewed polling data by relying upon dated technology, push polling methodologies, and laughably low response rates (from demographic groups who also just happen to lean Democrat).

BOTTOMLINE: Pollsters have become nothing more than propaganda prostitutes for media organizations desperate to SHAPE rather than report public opinion . . . And what is the media's current goal? Nothing less than the personal and political destruction of a sitting President for the express purpose of enabling Democrats to reclaim the Congress and eventually the presidency!


WHY DO WE NEED SO MANY POLLSTERS? Answer: WE don’t, but Democrats do!!!!

NBCNews/WallStreet Journal
ABCNews/WashingtonPost
CBSNews/NYTimes
FoxNews/Opinion Dynamics
USAToday/Gallup
LATimes/Bloomberg
AP/Ipsos Reid
IBD/Christian Science Monitor
Pew Poll
Harris Poll
Time
Newsweek
Quinnipiac
WNBC/Marist
Zogby
Rasmussen
Survey USA
ARG
NationalPublicRadio (NPR)
Cook/RTStrategies
Diageo/Hotline
Strategic Vision
Democracy Corps
The Battleground Poll
Mason Dixon
Annenberg

and many, many more . . . .


FORGET THE POLLS AND JUST REMEMBER:

PRESIDENT GEORGE W BUSH IS PERSONALLY POPULAR!. . . The new LATimes/Bloomberg poll (which oversamples Democrats by double digits) puts the President's 'PERSONAL APPROVAL' rating at 61% as compared to Clinton's highest 'Personal Approval' rating of 42% for this same poll!!

The recent Battleground Poll discovered the same 'Personal Approval' rating for the President and identified this rating as the greatest hope for Republicans moving forward to the 2006 election. [NOTE: According to the Battleground Poll, Clinton's 'Personal Approval' ratings never climbed
above 40%!]

Bottomline: The MAJORITY of people in this country LIKE President George W Bush and will listen to his message IF and when they actually 'hear' it. Unfortunately, the MSM (right and left) is working overtime to 'black out' and 'counter spin' the President, making it VERY difficult for him to communicate directly with the American people.

Despite these difficulties, George W Bush will continue as president for 2 1/2 more years; during which time, he will ignore the polls and do what's best for the long term security and prosperity of our country! May God continue to bless our great Decider in Chief!
