Do the Limbo!


How low can you go?

So, the latest polls put Bush's approval rating at 29%. Using our previous formula where we start with his approval rating of 90% (that was right after he swore he wouldn't politicize the thousands of Americans killed on 9/11 and then posed in front of the American flag at ground zero politicizing the death of thousands of Americans), and remembering that those of us in the 10% who saw the sham of Bush's 9/11 rhetoric and didn't approved of this jerk-off back then, have not changed our minds, we can once again do some math:

90% believed the bullshit
-29% still believe the bullshit
------
61% have seen the light

61% of Americans now know they were wrong, they were duped. That's an even sadder number than before, but I think this president has the ability to go even lower. Given that the 29% poll was taken before we learned that the NSA has amassed the world's largest database of every phone call made for the past five years by 200 million Americans, I'm sure we are going to soon be looking at Nixon-type approval ratings.

We may soon get to the "angry villagers carrying torches storm the castle (White House)" phase. God I'd love to watch that on TV. Of course, Fox News won't be covering it; there'll be a coed gone missing somewhere that will be a much more pressing story.

Lets face it. This Bush guy and Gunner Cheney are dupe masters. I din't like his speechs right after 9/11 either, as you said there were few Americans that recognized this right off.
What amazes me is this....Where the devil is the outrage that the general American public should be showing? It astounds me that there aren't more people raising hell about this administration, and Congress.
Just my thoughts on it. have a great weekend.....

I agree; that's the angry villagers I refer too. Maybe it's hard to carry the flaming torch when last week you were calling those opposed to this cretin un-American, un-patriotic and terrorist sympathizers. Makes it hard when you realize you're against the guy too.
