44% want Bush back over Obama

[zimmer]

Have you noticed that about 90 percent of Obama bumper stickers on are missing on those who sported it on their cars.

In a few more month it will be difficult to find people to admit they were duped by Obi.

This scene will be playing out across America:
:shrug: Who me? Vote for Obama? C'mon...

This is incredible! His ratings were in the tank his last year and still almost half the country wants him back! LOL :mrgreen:

As liberal as George Bush was on a plethora of domestic issues, he isn't a socialist that doesn't understand how grave a threat Islamic extremists are to the well-being of the United States.

There has been virtually no difference in the foreign policy of both.

I don't recall Bush idiotically making Afghanistan the central focus of the War on Terror. :roll:

You mean when Bush idiotically put more resources in the one country in the Middle East where there was no al Qaeda and no WMD, that only increased the terrorists recruitment quotas world wide?

"One way or the other, we are determined to deny Iraq the capacity to develop weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to deliver them. That is our bottom line."
- President Clinton, Feb. 4, 1998

"If Saddam rejects peace and we have to use force, our purpose is clear. We want to seriously diminish the threat posed by Iraq's weapons of mass destruction program."
- President Bill Clinton, Feb. 17, 1998

"We must stop Saddam from ever again jeopardizing the stability and security of his neighbors with weapons of mass destruction."
- Madeline Albright, Feb 1, 1998

"He will use those weapons of mass destruction again, as he has ten times since 1983."
- Sandy Berger, Clinton National Security Adviser, Feb, 18, 1998

"[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs."
Letter to President Clinton.
- (D) Senators Carl Levin, Tom Daschle, John Kerry, others, Oct. 9, 1998

"Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process."
- Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA), Dec. 16, 1998

"Hussein has ... chosen to spend his money on building weapons of mass destruction and palaces for his cronies."
- Madeline Albright, Clinton Secretary of State, Nov. 10, 1999

"We begin with the common belief that Saddam Hussein is a tyrant and a threat to the peace and stability of the region. He has ignored the mandate of the United Nations and is building weapons of mass destruction and th! e means of delivering them."
- Sen. Carl Levin (D, MI), Sept. 19, 2002

"We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country."
- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002

"Iraq's search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power."
- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002

"We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction."
- Sen. Ted Kennedy (D, MA), Sept. 27, 2002

"The last UN weapons inspectors left Iraq in October of 1998. We are confident that Saddam Hussein retains some stockpiles of chemical and biological weapons, and that he has since embarked on a crash course to build up his chemical and biological warfare capabilities. Intelligence reports indicate that he is seeking nuclear weapons..."
- Sen. Robert Byrd (D, WV), Oct. 3, 2002

"I will be voting to give the President of the United States the authority to use force -- if necessary -- to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to our security."
- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Oct. 9, 2002

"There is unmistakable evidence that Saddam Hussein is working aggressively to develop nuclear weapons and will likely have nuclear weapons within the next five years ... We also should remember we have always underestimated the progress Saddam has made in development of weapons of mass destruction."
- Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D, WV), Oct 10, 2002

"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members ... It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons."
- Sen. Hillary Clinton (D, NY), Oct 10, 2002

"We are in possession of what I think to be compelling evidence that Saddam Hussein has, and has had for a number of years, a developing capacity for the production and storage of weapons of mass destruction."
- Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), Dec. 8, 2002

"Without question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime ... He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation ... And now he is miscalculating America's response to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction ... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real..."
- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Jan. 23. 2003

And liberals never said there were WMDs in Iraq...no?

There may have been Democrats that went along with the invasion, but there were no liberals.

That's my point there is little difference in the foreign policy of both parties.

Yeah, Bush and BObama both sent terrorists from Guantanamo Bay to finger-painting lessons in Saudi Arabia so they could rejoin al-Qaeda, but BObama's done a better job of upholding American values and due process with drone attacks in Pakistan:

Since Mr. Obama came to power in January, his administration has carried out about 50 unmanned drone strikes inside Pakistan, more than the Bush administration in its final three years.

I'm just wondering how you came the "half the country" conclusion after reading that blog post.

No offense, but nothing in that blog post says that "half the country" wants W. back. Nothing in that article says that half the people polled want W. back. In fact, it says exactly the opposite. 50% (half) prefer Obama.

As of this morning, I'm pretty sure 10% of the country just wants a job. If the big banks would start lending to small businesses, people might start hiring.

44%? How about a 3rd party?

From my perspective (and I believe by most moderates), the problems with third parties, like the Libertarian party for example, is that they have some some party platforms that I agree with, like nonmilitary-interventionism in matters not pertaining to our National Defense, and some that I feel would be the undoing of the country, like doing away with our social programs.

For better or worse, the elections are decided by the moderates. How would you draw moderates to a third party with extreme platforms?

I know. Just as kryptonite is to Superman, facts are to liberals. Their entire worldview is based on wickedness, sophistry and outright lies.

Any one who voted for "Change" with no idea of what that even entailed, would out of desperation, probably think w. would be a better choice---but they are misguided.

New lows for Obama.

Obama's Approval Rating Dips to New Low - Political Hotsheet - CBS News


President Obama's job approval rating has fallen to 46 percent, according to a new CBS News poll.

That rating is Mr. Obama's lowest yet in CBS News polling, and the poll marks the first time his approval rating has fallen below the 50 percent mark. Forty-one percent now say they disapprove of Mr. Obama's performance as president.

In last month's CBS News poll, 50 percent of Americans approved of how the president was handling his job, while thirty-nine percent disapproved.
