Some good news--and for x42, it can only go downhill from here, IMO.

sink emperor ranked behind Carter. Oh, the embarassment.

[Freemyland]

Great. Now we can expect the "Clinton Legacy Machine" to really gear up.

[Pharmboy]

Only the hated Nixon had lower disapprovals--and that was with the press' vendetta against the jowlly one even BEFORE Watergate--and the press' LOVEFEST with x42 for 8 years.

HA!

Slight correction: Frank Newport gets credit for writing this. I missed that in my original post.

Retrospective polling? These bungholes (the pollsters) have too much time on their hands...........

This whole poll seems very convoluted the way it read. Almost as though, despite Bubba's fall from grace, they try to find something good to say about him - and bad about conservatives.

Great treatment of the Klintoon on the Simpson's last night. He's making an idiotic speech to some group, insults them all then demands his $200,000 speaking fee. I don't think Matt Groenig likes the guy at all.

AGREED ORDER OF DISCIPLINE

Democrats and nonwhites are his strongest supporters, as are younger Americans.

That last group frightens me. Maybe they approve because he's the only President they really knew.

Correct. My cousin and her friends were born in '81 and don't really remember Reagan or Bush x41.

[Pharmboy]

Yeah...and some of them problably remember him on MTV or at least heard about it (the underwear interview).

[Rustynailww]

called him jimmy carter with a fox attitude.

My youngest daughter is a senior in high school and the kids in her class make fun of both clintons all the time. They find him irrelevant and her disgusting. Look for this group of young people polled to make clinton even more irrelevant when President Bush is in office even longer.

I'm old enough to remember the JFK years well ... and I can say without hesitation JFK did little to deserve his current top ranked status. He was president from January '61 'till his assassination in Dallas November '63 ... less than three years. His assassination and the subsequent burnishing of his presidency by the liberal media (Camelot) no doubt enchanced his mediocre track record ... however it's undeserved.

Heard about this episode on the radio this AM. Dang-it and I missed it. I've heard several slams at Clinton and the Rats in general on the Simpsons, but this has to be the best.

JFK was by most measures a complete failure as president, but martyrdom and a fawning press can do wonders for one's reputation. Johnson basically completed most of what Kennedy tried to do, for some good but mostly ill, and got nothing but deep resentment for it from JFK's partisans.

That's great news!

I was very worried about that, with all the college kids fawning over clintoon, I thought that the younger generation was going to take the country down into the dumpster.

Saw some special on the tube this weekend about high security and they mentioned that LBJ installed a buzzer in oval office for USSS to warn him if Ladybird was coming down the hall per se . Seems he was caught getting a Lewinski by her once. Maybe his ratings would climb with the dumb'o rats if they knew his style of leadership also.......

All things Clintonista are poison for USA IMHO......Stay Safe !
