iCANTseeBLUE,
Please let conor post hisown posts here.
It's ok to link to it and/or paraphrase it. But starting a thread with merely someone else's words is frowned upon.
This doesn't seem to be couched in the form of a debate. I'm moving it to The Basement.

George W. Bush’s overall job approval ratings have dropped from a month ago even as Americans who approve of the way Bush is handling his job as president are turning more optimistic about their personal financial situations according to the latest survey from the American Research Group. Among all Americans, 36% approve of the way Bush is handling his job as president and 58% disapprove. When it comes to Bush’s handling of the economy, 33% approve and 62% disapprove.
Among Americans registered to vote, 38% approve of the way Bush is handling his job as president and 56% disapprove, and 36% approve of the way Bush is handling the economy and 60% disapprove.
For a little perspective, recall that Richard Nixon’s approval rating in the summer of 1973 (when the Watergate scandal was in full swing) was 39%.
Compared to Bush, that’s downright sunny.

yeah..hate...right. How lameStu Ghatze said:Bush has had many problems that is a cinch, BUT....do not believe that horsedump about being less popular than Nixon.
What is going on here is the medias attempt to cook polls by the way they ask poll questions etc.
It IS the MEDIA that WANTS people to believe Bush is terrible, ..& that Bush's presidency is failing.
Why do you think the democrats, & liberals were all upset about the pre-election polls in 04', & the exit polls AFTER the actual election..??
The media had many people BELIEVING that Kerry was getting the majority of all the votes in order to help the democrats. (I know...you prefer in NOT believing the media is helpful to the DNC, but they have ALWAYS been a tool for the DNC to exploit, & are basically just an extension of the democratic party) ITs NO secret that the media champions liberal, & democratic causes either!
THis is what caused such increduility, ..not because of the stupid rigged election accusations. Many of the poll takers are NOT as independent as you think, ..& many ARE biased.
They had hoped to make it "appear" by "perceptions" that Kerry was the man to beat during the election.
Bush is NOT running for anything, ..so I do not see your point, unless you think his bad poll numbers are going to give the democrats a "bounce" in 08', but it is much too early for that.
Inasmuch as Mr. Bush has come out rather badly about issues, ..mainstream republican voters are not going to rush out, & vote democrat.
THe dems have done much damage to themselves, ..& do not even realize it. It is NO secret that they, & the media have been trying to get "something" on Bush for the last couple years almost!
This shyte does NOT play well w/most people who know politics, & actually know the real facts on issues. THe dems might glean some new votes in 08', but you might not want to hold your breath.
I mean think about what many democratic supporters, & websites have said about Bush, all completely as.sinine, & just filled with hate:
1. Bush created 9/11 himself
2. BUsh is a nazi
3. Bush is a murderer
4. The Cindy Sheehan trying to smear Bush
5. Bush hates the poor, & minorities
6. Bush endorsed torture
7. villifying our own troops will hurt the dems as well, & then "pretending" to support them smacks of hypocrisy.
Personnally, ..I'am NOT trying to be political about this at all. Those are PERCEPTIONS put out by irresponsible dem party hacks, ..& played over & over by the helpful media.

It's not a news article, it's post to a blog by someone named conor.iCANTseeBLUE said:What are you talking about?
I wasn't stopping anyone from posting here.
Someone elses words? What are you talking about? I linked to the news article.
What are the "legitimate" criticisms of Bush?Stu Ghatze said:How about some intellectual honesty here w/ regards to hate inspired words that have been directed against Bush?
Stu Ghatze said:Nefarious, ..I do not know whether you are trying to be chic about your comment, or not...but I tell you; the assault upon BUsh has been non-stop & it is filled with hate.
How in the hell can anybody say such things & actually rationalize their words. One can be constructive in their honest critiscism Of Bush, ..but my God you cannot deny such words, & they sure as hell are not said out of "love".
How about some intellectual honesty here w/ regards to hate inspired words that have been directed against Bush?
