Bush No Longer Seen as Effective Manager (Gallup has Bush @ 31%)
Gallup ^ | 5/8/06

Posted on 05/08/2006 11:34:10 AM PDT by Recovering_Democrat

Along with the lowest overall job approval rating of his presidency, the latest USA Today/Gallup poll gives President George W. Bush record low scores for his handling of a variety of national issues and perceived leadership abilities. Since January, Bush's ratings have fallen most sharply with respect to his handling of energy policy and Iraq.

You're rather dense.

Yes Cautor ......... quite dense. For instance:

****

The mass of the Sun is 2.0 * 10^30 kg. Also, the radius of the Sun is r = 7.0 * 10^8 m, so the Sun's volume is (4/3) * pi * r^3.

You can calculate that the Sun's volume is 1.43 * 10^27 m^3, and has density

M 2 * 10^30 kg D = --- = --------------------------------- = 1400 kg/m^3 V 1.333 * 3.14 * (7.0 * 10^8 m)^3

This is about 1000 times denser than air, 40% denser than water, half as dense as rock, and about 5 times less dense than iron................ and much less dense than Barbra Streisand.

Yoi!!!

You demonstrated NOTHING but your obtuse beliefs.

I find you boring.

That's certainly not representative of anything in the real world, although I'm sure you need to think it is to prove to yourself your tunnel vision is justified.

It is representative of the political forum that you are posting on right now. Are the opinions of FReepers worthless to you? Representative of nothing in the real world? Then why are you posting here in response to someone's opinion? What does it say about your own opinion?

As evidenced, we have 290 enemies here and counting. Those 290 are not conservatives or Republicans, no matter how vcciferous their claims!

Free Republic Opinion Poll: A time for choosing: It appears that a significant number of our members are so disgusted with the GOP's failure to secure our borders against illegal aliens that they are willing to risk all by voting them out of office, even if it means Pelosi, Reid, Hillary, et al, are allowed to take charge. Is this the best course of action or should we be working harder than ever to hold the line and actually try to make a difference by getting more constitutionally-minded conservatives elected? Are you willing to give it all up or are you more determined than ever to keep the Marxists out of power?

Composite Opinion
Work harder to get conservatives elected 79.7% 3,035
Turn it over to the Rats 20.3% 774
100.0% 3,809
Member Opinion
Work harder to get conservatives elected 84.8% 1,620
Turn it over to the Rats 15.2% 290
100.0% 1,910
Non-Member Opinion
Work harder to get conservatives elected 74.5% 1,415
Turn it over to the Rats 25.5% 484
100.0% 1,899

So what is your point, that I have to agree with all the kooks on this web site?

Are the opinions of FReepers worthless to you?

Some of them are worthless to most everybody on here.

Representative of nothing in the real world?

Precisely.

Then why are you posting here in response to someone's opinion?

I'm here to voice MY opinion as to what is important and perhaps to refute the pap you lemmings are trying to push as what stands for conservatives everywhere.

What does it say about your own opinion?

It says my opinion matters just as much as yours does -- and it also says that just because I don't agree with you, it doesn't mean I'm the one who is wrong.

A lot of people voted for Bush just because they couldn't stand voting for a Viet Cong supporter who sounded like Thurston Howell the Third.

"I find you boring. "

I find your repeated use of the old dead horse mantra both childish and boring. I suppose if the alternative is trying to defend Bush's open borders/amnesty policy, it's all you've got. Looks like your groupy friends have had it for the day. Why don't you be a nice little Bushbot and run along home to mommy.

think it would take another major terrorist attack on our soil. Short of that I think it's highly unlikely his approval ratings will ever be really good again.




Sadly your right... people know him and most are tired of him. Besides the WOT and a tax cut he has been a disaster in his domestic programs.

Also nothing in regards to entitlements,tort reforms,the border,vouchers,tax reform....ya know the little things he campaigned on.

Bush did good in the 2000 debates. Better than the 2004 ones I'd say since nothing could be blamed on him yet. Of course, it helped that Gore acted like a two year old.

"People are distrustful of a leader who can wage a foreign war but not protect the domestic tranquility".

That appears to be the case. It didn't help to hear him announce that it was impossible to deport 12 million illegals. That just opened the flood gates for more Illegals, who felt they had just hit the Jack pot with that statement.

I find you dense and obnoxious and your opinions are similar to the DNC's talking points. I'm done with you. Have the last word, big baby.

I'm sorry you have to slink away like that. Can't we be friends. I'm sure we'll cross paths again on another thread. I look forward to that.

So, the 54% of Free Republic respondents to the poll are "kooks" in your book?

I'm here to voice MY opinion as to what is important and perhaps to refute the pap you lemmings are trying to push as what stands for conservatives everywhere.

Pap? Lemmings? Kooks? All I did was post a recent Free Republic poll and you started said that Free Republic posters' opinion were worthless and started talking about kooks, pap, and lemmings. I don't think I did anything to deserve that. I don't know why you think that all of this name calling and personal attacks against the majority of FReepers who disagree with you is somehow going to win anyone over to your side of the debate.
