Why the Polls are Low for President Bush

"Bush polls have fallen to a new low," shout the newspaper headlines or the news anchors on television. "President Bush and Congress have reached their lowest numbers yet," they continue, trying to speculate whether this is caused by the high gasoline prices, the current economy, or the war in Iraq.

This is strange since there is good news, mostly hidden by the media, about all three.

1. Recently, the U.S. Energy Department announced the results of a land survey: "We have more oil inside our borders, than all the other proven reserves on earth. Here are the official estimates:

2. Our economy is at its best today with unemployment at its lowest in decades and with three million new jobs added!

snip

3. We are winning the war in Iraq and, as I write this, Jawad al-Maliki, an experienced political operator and advocate for Iraq's Shiite Muslims, has won the approval

snip

Anti-Bush information also pours into our homes from the news on NBC, ABC, CBS, CNN and even Fox News. The latter says that it is fair and balanced, implying that it gives you news from both the left and right political wings. But if TV news is to be balanced, should we not have at least one TV network that tells us only the truth about our country without two commentators spinning in two different directions? Don't we get enough opinion, generally slanted to the Left, from all the other networks?

snip

Polls always reflect not what people think but rather how they react to the news they see and hear every day beamed or tossed into their homes by both television and print.

Good to see you posting here, old friend.

I'll gladly get down in the trenches and fight the communists who are trying to destroy our country any day of the week with you, sir.

And what, exactly, would you have the president do about it?

And please don't say send in the military; that is beyond his authorized powers and ability.

BS when you give the American people a choice between a conservative and a Marxist they always choose a conservative. Its only when we run some pussy "moderate" who is a Marxist wannabe do they vote in Marxists. Two years of Democratic government caused the Republican Revolution of 94.

What will give us 20 years of Marxism is a republican party who tries to get power by out democrating a democrat.

Not a chance. That's your crowd's game.

Besides, he knows how to handle this crowd just fine.

Anyhow, how hard is it to see that someone's posting every five seconds to a flame-fest like this?

You're young.
Do a little research.

Give the democrats control of the WH, senate and house and you will see the end of the Electoral College which will mean that your state, CA, NY PA, MI will elect future presidents.

Looks like this thread, is just another one you post ridiculous things to.

Some peoples' bile has been vomited all over this thread; however, it hasn't been Howlin nor me doing it.

Now, go bait someone else.

Thanks EV.

I enjoy battling with liberals and status quo centrists too.

Long live conservatism!
