The majority of Americans feel this creature is doing a good job?????
Now, I usually believe in the inherent good common sense of the American public and am GENERALLY of the opinion that the American public tends to be a reasonable bunch....however, this article just flat out proves me wrong....or at least, the extrapolated results of this poll would cause me to believe that it proves me wrong....
From the article : "(CNN) -- Fifty-five percent of Americans like the way President Bush is handling his job, while the approval rating for his Iraq policies is slightly lower, according to the first full CNN-USA Today-Gallup poll following the November 2 presidential election.
Forty-two percent of those polled don't believe Bush is doing a good job. Sixty percent have a positive opinion of Bush, versus 39 percent with the opposite view."
WTF????????? Sixty percent have a "positive opinion of Bush"? Look, are you folks on CRACK or something harder?
How can 55 percent of the Americans actually say they like the way Bush is handling his job with a straight face? There is obviously something seriously wrong with 55 percent of the American public, if this poll is to be believed.
You folks obviously didn't wake up before the election, not DURING the election, and are obviously still hallucinating after the election.
The war is costing 5.8 BILLION A MONTH....Bush has asked for a budget of 388 BILLION. Now, if we round it off, that's around 6 BILLION a month, times 12 = 72 Billion a year that we will be spending on this war AT PRESENT LEVELS, which is almost 20 percent of the entire budget. It was noted that, as a result of this 388 BILLION BUDGET, lots of social programs would find their programs cut in funding levels.
Yeah, why the hell should we take care of our own people (as the mandate in the constitution is), when we can bomb the hell out of other people across the world.
Something is seriously wrong here folks...and it's a damn shame the majority is staying blind to that.
