I say stop paying federal taxes, dismantle the Federal govt. and give power to the states alone. With all the money we save in not paying Federal taxes we can all afford to live comfortable lives. We also wouldn't have to deal w/ a stupid president like George the whore-nun slut bag aids infested wanna-be man-gina uncle fucker Bush if we didn't have a Federal Govt., we don't have to put up with this shit, nor do we have to pay his salary and all the other GOP fat-fucks. So, take up your pitch forks and torches folks and lynch your local IRS. Fuck federal taxes.

Nice thought, but then the US turns into a couple of rich coastal countries, a few moderately well off nations on the lakes, and a lot of miserable little third world hell holes.

Two words you may recall (if the memory isn't too painful):

Exit Poll

Lemme guess: you don't know what an "exit poll" is and why it is not analogous to broad polling carried out over geographical regions, taking into account the motivations of the respondants.

Keep focussing on Bush.

Thanks, we will - all the way to this November, enjoying his dropping numbers and further panic among the GOP ranks.

Fuck November - doing all the way to 2008 - get totally out of your prams on it.

No, this November IS the target. Seriously, ask your Congress person about his/her positions on the issues, on which they are distancing themselves from the president.

History shows that voters love obsessed extremist leftwing crybabies.

If by "leftwing crybabies" you mean "a petrified, federal legislature controlled by the GOP, and 2/3 of the voting public," you might be on to something.

Continue to obfuscate. We're used to it.

Like I said earlier, Dead Ringer, I'm pretty sure Uptight is a Brit. He doesn't have a Congress person, he's just a loudmouth who doesn't know shit about the US political system.

Yes, thank you. I know UpTight is a Brit.

Actually there has been a terrorist attack on American soil. At least one that I can think of.

Nobody called it that because it was one of those anti-choice whackjobs trying to kill OB-GYNs and women who need D&Cs because they miscarried.

but they did it for jesus! that's not terrorism, right?

I love when polls prove what most of us all ready know. I'd like a job where the outcome is pretty much set in stone.

I knew Bush was a shitty president in the first year of his first term, but back then he was still a very popular man, especially after September 11.
The poll doesn't prove he is a shitty president, it indicates that most people are finally starting to wake up to that fact. The fact that it's stating the obvious is only because it reflects a trend that has been established by previous polls.

If a poll had come out in late 2001 that said 'most people think George bush is a shitty president' i would have thought 'duh!' but it wouldn't;t have been a reflection of American public opinion.

I think if you claim to know he's a shitty president in the first year of his first term, you are kidding yourself. A presidency must be judged through the eye of history, and in the first year of a presidency, you just don't have enough data to judge the presidency. You can certainly say you think he had shitty policies, but the outcomes of those policies wouldn't have been understood that soon. By anyone.

No. I was pretty sure he was a shitty president the first week into his "Fuck you Europe - Tour" he took right before his extended ignore the country vacation.

Do you remember the news stories a few weeks before 9/11? They were talking about how a president is judged heavily on his first 100 days in office, and how they had passed that point and the new administration still hasn't done shit.

After 9/11 like everyone I wished he could do the job, but at the same time I became wary because there were reports 12 hours after the attacks (I fled to PA) that the administration was leaking Saddam Hussein as the likely culprit. Something obviously bullshit to me.

Bush is and always was a shitty president. He has good PR.
You don't have to look at the history of a president to make that determination, you just need to look at the history of all the others before him.
In the context of history he has consistently done a piss poor job from day one, save the first few months of invading Afghanistan where he sat back and let the real generals do their fucking jobs.
