Bye Bye Bushy!!!
Every day is a growing nightmare for the worst president in US history. Now the
market dipped below10K again and gas is the highest ever! I had dinner aboard a a republican owned Mainship 41 yesterday and even he's not voting for Bushy again! Even his previous supporters think the war is a joke and Bush is costing American lives. Bye Bye Bushy! RB |
Bye Bye Bushy!!!
Don't think so Boob****. Go away with your Jane Fonda crap.
Investor's Business Daily Despite the Iraq (news - web sites) prison scandal that has rocked the Bush administration and damaged America's credibility, the latest Investor's Business Daily/TIPP poll shows that the president would win if the election were held today. The nationwide poll of 981 adults, taken May 2-8 (after the prison scandal broke) revealed that among 823 registered voters Bush leads Kerry 46% to 41%, with independent Ralph Nader (news - web sites) getting 5%. In a two-way race, Bush leads Kerry 47% to 44%. In an IBD/TIPP poll taken April 16-22, Bush led by four points in a three-man race. In swing states, Bush widened his lead from 3 points in mid-April to 9 points in early May. He now leads Kerry in the so-called battleground states 49% to 40%. But the race is very close among independent voters. Bush gets 40% of their votes; Kerry gets 39%. Bush's presidential leadership ratings, as measured by the IBD/TIPP Presidential Leadership Index, also rose - from 49.5 in April to 51.8 in May, a gain of 4.5%. "Despite a tough month, Bush seems to have come out ahead," said Raghavan Mayur, president of TIPP, a unit of TechnoMetrica Market Intelligence and IBD's polling partner. "Bush's ratings have improved among 15 of the 21 demographic groups we track." Intensity of support among Bush voters is much stronger than support for Kerry, the poll continues to show. While 68% of Bush's supporters say they support him strongly, only 38% of Kerry's supporters say the same for him. Kerry also lags Bush in tapping his party's constituencies. Bush gets 90% of Republican votes while Kerry gets 77% of Democrats. In fact, one in eight Democrats (12%) want to vote for Bush. Only 11% of Democrats say they are "very satisfied" with the choice of candidates in this year's election and 59% are "somewhat satisfied." This contrasts with 42% of Republicans who are "very satisfied" and 37% who are "somewhat satisfied." Among independents, 16% are "very satisfied" and 43% are "somewhat satisfied" with the available choice of candidates. The poll has some good news for Kerry, however. Nearly three-fourths (71%) say they made up their minds about whom they'll vote for back in February or even earlier. One in five (18%) say they decided in April and March. While Bush dominates among the early deciders (58% to 37%), Kerry is gaining among more recent deciders (70% to 24%). An IBD/TIPP index that gauges public opinion of U.S. standing in the world hit its all-time low of 44.5 this month, reflecting the "stain" the prison scandal may have made on the country's image. The index's previous low was 46.7 in March 2003, just before the Iraq military action. Bush has indicated he is aware of the situation, admitting that the last two weeks have been tough on the Iraqi front, with the prison scandal following the bloodiest month there for U.S. troops. Still, Bush's ratings are improving. Why? Mayur cites four reasons, while believing the net effect of all the positives vs. the negatives (especially the prison scandal) is still positive. First, he said, the latest job data have convinced many that the economic recovery is for real. More admit that Bush's tax cuts have helped spur the recovery. Second, Bush's campaigning and heavy advertising in the Midwest and key swing states seem to be bearing fruit. In late April, Kerry led the president 45% to 40%; now Bush leads by 15 points (51% to 36%) in the Midwest. "Each hand you shake is worth 100 votes," Mayur observed. Third, most Americans (80%) see Bush as a resolute leader. "And as things get tougher in Iraq," Mayur said, "we expect more Americans to gravitate toward him." Fourth, support for U.S. military action in Iraq remains stable at 57%. Also, 52% believe the action is helping make the world safer. Nearly half (47%) think the U.S. is winning the global war on terrorism while 36% believe it is losing. Americans admit the prison scandal is not good for the country's image, Mayur said, but they are not blaming Bush directly. If they were, he said, the president's ratings would have dropped. "Americans understand that a handful of people were responsible for the (prison) incidents and perhaps have accepted Bush's apology," Mayur said. The margin of error for the poll is plus or minus 3.2 percentage points. S/V Express 30 "Ringmaster" "No shirt, no skirt, full service" |

Like I said...
Bye Bye Bushy. Bush approval rating is too low for a win and it's likely to only get worse. RB |

Bwahahaaha! Where are the WMD the war was started over, Loco? Hmmmm? Your president is a killer of American Soldiers and has buried our economy. RB |
Bye Bye Bushy!!!
"SAIL LOCO" wrote .... just like the 60s ..... Funny you should mention that. Alot going on today reminds me of the '60s when LBJ let America's infrastructure, schools and military aquisition programs go to crap because he diverted so much $$$ to Vietnam. I can't get out of our marina this summer except at high tide because nobody is dredging the channel damaged by Isabel - or the ICW either - and I've run aground twice cuz the channel markers are no longer valid but the USCG is too busy to reset them. Notice how the winter's pot holes are getting patched instead of fixed? Well somebody has to pay for saving Israel from Saddam then rebuilding Iraq and that somebody is us! |

when LBJ let America's infrastructure, schools and military aquisition programs go to crap because he diverted so much $$$ to Vietnam. And yet Bush has accomplished nothing with that diverted money beyond making an international joke and villain of the USA. Our great country has a moron at the helm and the whole world knows it. I have friends at Spain and German embassys. Never has the US been held in such a poor light. RB |
Bye Bye Bushy!!!

Kind of reminds me of the 60s as well. I guess it is fitting that the 30 year anniversary of the Gulf of Tonkin "Big Lie" is approaching. Further, it is kind of amusing in an ironic sort of way for folks who don't remember those days to be criticizing guys like Kerry because he later opposed the war. Hell, almost everybody ultimately opposed the war. One fiasco war per generation should be enough, but all of a sudden the "hawks" who seemed to have "other priorities" back then are frothing at the mouth now. What a tragic waste of lives, money and our national reputation. ABB Anybody But Bush |

Sadly, there will always be people like Loco and Horvath who just don't see the light. They are basically hateful people. I'm not trolling. At this point, if you're backing Bush, you must have a lot of anger and hate in your heart. RB |
