Whoa!!! How LOW will he go??? How LOW will he end up???

http://www.pollingreport.com/BushJob.htm

The Polls, ALL of them listed, and it shows that from 9/05 until NOW, that Bush only had ONE DAY that his ratings even got into the blue area, he had an overall of 50% that day. And now he is at an over all 26% approval rating... That is mind boggling for our leader!!! Jimmy Carter's lowest was 28%.

What in the world is going to happen to America when our President is being shown WORLD WIDE to be this bad, and we have so many people running who is no better, ON BOTH SIDES!!!

We do NOT have a Republican, nor do we have a Democrat that is running at this point that will be able to straighten out the messes caused in the last 5 years...

I dont usually do politics... here is a quote from the last link you posted. "Bush is pursuing a wildly irresponsible dream. Congress should tell him so. And for that to happen, Americans need to tell Congress."
We do need to tell Congress. And no,.... the ones running for President in 08 are no better. Sad to say while we have troops fighting that i am seriously thinking about not voting. There is no one to vote for. Im not impressed with any candidate thus far.

You are so totally correct, if WE don't tell them what WE THE PEOPLE DEMAND, then we need to get them out of office...

The sad thing I noticed is that the OLD saying "I am going to vote for "so and so" because they are the lesser of 2 evils cannot even apply right now... there is NO LESSER of evils, they are all on the same playing field that is going to end up making it VERY bad for all of us. And if there is NO lesser of the evils, then there is no one chart anyone can use to go by on voting... so it leaves most people just shaking their heads...

Both parties should be DEEPLY ashamed of themselves!!!

Sorry Girl, gotta disagree with you . My daughter's CAT would be better than Bush.

The Dems have a couple who I think would be great- Edwards, my personal favorite, and Richardson (who may be the best qualified in either party in the whole race). Hillary is probably the smartest, and I will vote for her if she is the Democratic candidate, but I have a thing about dynastys and I don't like Bush, Clinton, Bush, Clinton etc.
I have no real bone to pick with Obama, just like the others better.
On the Republican side, I'll have to agree with you. I didn't much care for Thompson when he was senator, can't believe he would be much better as a president. Anyway, we have already seen what an actor can do- don't want another round of that.
I don't expect our country to get outta the mess W Bush has got us into in whats left of my lifetime, but I would like to see the Dems control both houses of Congress and a Democratic president for one term. This could possibally, help put in motion some reversal of the mess we are in. After that point, I would like to see some balance , don't care if it is a Republican president with Democratic Congress, or one of the chambers in Congress go to one party while the other chamber is controlled by the other.
Balance is the key to our Republic working right, not complete control by one ideology.

Just let me know if your daughter's cat turns in a nomination for President... I will vote for the cat! hehe

The rest of what you said was very true and right on the money with a LOT of people's belief right now... Thanks!!!!

Sorry, but reactor can't explode. If you bypassed three automatic protocols and one manual one, you might get a melt down. And, the two times I saw W upclose, he was accompanied by the officer carrying the football.

What, in your opinion, is the criteria to get the Democratic nomination? Apparently being most qualified is not enough.

If Bill Richardson ran for President as an Independent, and you thought he was most qualified, would you vote for him?

I believe Richardson has the best resume, and therefore more experience in what needs to be done, especilly in foreign matters.
It is obvious from the last 2 presidental elections that the American people don't give a hoot about competancy, therefore the bungeling mess that is the W Bush admin.
I believe that to be electable, a candidate must have a charasmatic personality. I believe the lack of that trait hurt Gore, and Kerry. The question of "who would you like to have a beer with?" thing of the past couple of elections. Of course, it is a bunch of bunk since it is unlikely any of us will actually sit down and have a beer with any candidate, and furthermore, it is just plain irrivalent.
Back now to your particular question on Richardson; I don't think he has that carismia , and therefore, I doubt he will get the nomination.
I did state, however, that my favorite was John Edwards, and we'll see how it all falls out. The Republican party has so screwed up this country in the last 6 years, that I will not vote for any Republican again for a long while. Bush is only partly to blame, the Republican led Congress was even more disasterous. (Think Bill , from my diaganosis from this vidio tape, she'll come out of her coma, Frist.) Don't you think he looks like Bob the male enhancement guy from TV?? Big Grin
I don't believe that any candidate running on a 3rd party ticket can be elected. Perou had the best shot, but fell waaaay short. Nader threw the 2000 election to the idiot.
Therefore, I would not vote for a 3rd party candidate even if I thought they were the best qualified, I would vote for who I thought the best was on a main party ticket. (At this point in my life that means the Democratic ticket)

That second quote kinda makes that first quote a "self-fulfilling prophecy. Wink
Take on look at pretty boy Edwards and imaigine that him primping and trying to negociate against any of the tyrants of the 20th century or the islamofascists we face today/

Hillary's scarey enough. But, she lies about the least thing to advance herself. She tried to put Billy Dale in prison for 20 years to advance her cousin in the White House travel business. Jury was out for 2 hours before acquital. Dale was harassed when he tried to reclaim costs of his prosecution before congress and claim his retirement. Too petty!

The list of what Bush and Cheney have lowered their offices to numbers MUCH higher than Hillary can hold a cancle to right now...

Libby took the fall for them once already, just wonder who is next... I also wonder how many DAYS Libby will actually spend behind bars... and will it be PRISON, or a Federal facility that serves Steak and gives BEDROOMS instead of bars???

I think ALL of today's politicians, in office and the want to be in office politicians are all alike... I dont think ANY of them have ANY bragging rights at all...

But ya gotta admit, Edwards IS purdy!!! lol

Hmmmmm, everything I have googled on Congress ratings are above 40%...

Where did you get that info???

I don't doubt it though... fact is, ALL of our elected officials have extremely LOW ratings... WHAT does that tell us, as a Nation?
The ratings I found was 24%, not that it's that much different than 19%, it still sucks.

Americans are trying to tell our government that we do not want to give amnesty to illegals and we want our borders secure. They aren't listening and are trying to push terrible legislation through. Come next election, expect very few incumbents to keep their seats.
As of June 20, 2007 USAToday's Gallup Poll results: 14%

New Gallup data show confidence in Congress at all time low
Just 14% of Americans have a great deal or quite a lot of confidence in Congress.

This 14% Congressional confidence rating is the all-time low for this measure, which Gallup initiated in 1973. The previous low point for Congress was 18% at several points in the period of time 1991 to 1994.

Congress is now nestled at the bottom of the list of Gallup's annual Confidence in Institutions rankings, along with HMOs. Just 15% of Americans have a great deal or quite a lot of confidence in HMOs. (By way of contrast, 69% of Americans have a great deal or quite a lot of confidence in the military, which tops the list.)
