The DeMedia needs those poll #'s down to keep the Prez from being an asset to Congressional races. They claimed 15% positive for Kerry with manipulation of the news.

And Kerry had no positives of his own.

W. on the other hand, has plenty of miscues to exploit so their manipulation probably gets them 30% to their favor.


Who did you blame YOUR crash on????

Americans today are far softer than a few generations ago.

We are weaklings, and it will show.

1) Illegals and Open Borders
2) Gas prices due to lack of drilling and refineries
3) Iraq War being fought with too much PC

Just how did W knock you off the bike without you seeing him? It must be his fault somehow.

Right now we can post all we want about poll numbers, how W dropped the ball in some areas, etc...yada, yada, yada, BUT what he needs more than anything right now is for his fellow Christian family to earnestly pray for him. It's alarming how the mediaHARLOTS are out to destroy this man...AT ALL COST! We need to surround him with prayer and fasting...HE MOST DESPARATELY NEEDS THAT RIGHT NOW. The hordes of hell are out to destroy and kill if possible this man...BUT GREATER IS HE WHO'S IN US THAN HE WHO IS IN THE WORLD! I feel badly for him...God be with him! Can you imagine being in his shoes right now...the hatred he feels coming at him from every direction, and having to watch your back 24/7! I pray that everything the demonRATS and their hordes mean for rottenness, God will turn it around for good! W will be asserted as one of the GREATEST presidents...I am depending on it, for God has spoken it!

First of all I really think it is too simplistic to directly correlate Bush’s poll numbers to gas prices. I don’t really think any one single issue has produced these types of results to a survey.

Bush's poll numbers are in the tank because conservatives are pissed with him. He was never going to get the Dems to be happy with him except in the immediate aftermath of 911. He used to have positive ratings from more than 80% of conservatives. Now its a little over 50%. It's not only gas prices, its the port deal, amnesty for illegals, lack of border enforcement, spending like a drunken sailor, lack of vetos, wasting months on Social Security reform only to walk away from it without a vote (kind of like Dems and their healthcare debacle). Then there was Bush flying over New Orleans after taking an extended Summer vacation and thanking Brownie for his good job on Katrina. And most of all, Bush's total inarticulateness and lack of even trying to fight for what is important.

Global Warming!!

I was caught riding in a hailstorm the last week in March. Ice got into my pedal clip and as I pushed off going through an intersection my foot slipped trying to clip in and I fell over like a tree and hit my chest against the curb. The worst part is I didn't know how badly I was hurt until the next day when I couldn't move my right arm! I have been laid up since! Rib injuries are the worst!

Hooyah!! Its about time someone says it like it is. You can't quit and losing is worse.

So get over it and be a Republican again. If you think things are bad now, think about either president Pelosi or the Hildabeast. Both are possible if you just sit on you a$$ and gripe.

I think it is an everybody pile on conspiracy. I managed to watch two of my used to be favorite TV shows this week. (Now, I am not so sure how favorite they are) On ER this week, they had a doctor go off on a couple of servicemen about how bad the war was etc. Also, on Bones this week a near the same thing happened with a doctor going off on an FBI, ex-serviceman, agent. It seems like each TV show these days is being used to put forth the liberal agenda.

Did we vote right? Your damn right we did and I for one am proud to be in the 29th percentile! But I don’t believe that 29% number. I don’t think Americans are that stupid. I just think that given a stupid question a stupid answer follows. If America thought things were that bad don’t you thing that it would have some reflection in reality?

The polls are taken daily to scare Republican politicians and to erode their support of Bush's agenda. That's it. Of course the polls are false, but the only ones who ever really pay attention to polls are the politicians anyway.

You are right. Most American's live in the real world and are smarter than pollsters try to make us all out to be. The pollsters are all just another arm of the MSM, and they exhibit the same contempt for the average American that many politicians do.

Pollsters are playing to the cowardace of the common politician with an eye to derailing the Bush agenda.

The poll numbers are laregly not about the war. For the liberal 30%, that's the biggest issue. For the rest of us, it's the open borders and wastrel spending. That's the thing about Jorge- he gives everybody a reason to dislike his administration.
