OT--President's Job Approval at 46%
 
President Bush Job Approval
Saturday December 03, 2005--Forty-six percent (46%) of American adults
approve of the way George W. Bush is performing his role as President.
Fifty-three percent (53%) of Americans Disapprove of the President's
performance.

The President's Job Approval has been above the 43% mark in our last eight
daily polls. Prior to that, it had generally been in the 40% to 43% range
for more than a month. The low point for the President came October 28. His
numbers stopped falling when Harriet Miers withdrew her name from
consideration as a Supreme Court nominee.

Get real. Even Fox News has him at 42%, and the Wall Street Journal
(that paragon of liberal bias) has him in the upper 30's.

Here's a really good site for presidential poll fans. Pick your poll,
pick your results. (As you did, picking the one poll that doesn't show
Bush in the crapper). The truth is probably somewhere in the sum total
of these couple of dozen polls:

Appointed John Roberts. In case you forgot, 78 Senators approved of his
appointment.

Rasmussen polls daily...and has him at 47% as of today.

Fox's poll is almost a week old...and he's at 42% in that poll...which is 6
points higher than it was four weeks ago. The WSJ poll that you mentioned is
almost a month old.

LOL. When Rasmussen lists a number (like 47%), it's an average of the
polling data from the prior 3 days. "A bit of good or bad news" won't skew
the poll significantly. Just look at the three-week trend from Rasmussen.
Bush has steadily climbed from 42/43% to today's number: 47%.



" The national telephone survey of 1,500 Adults was conducted by Rasmussen
Reports over the past three nights. Margin of sampling error is +/- 3
percentage points with a 95% level of confidence "

NOYB, I must admit, your frequent postings and the content contained
therein have had far reaching changes in the way that I will vote in
the future.

I'm sure you have evoked similar epiphanies in other readers....


You mean that Harry's even-more-frequent posts haven't had an influence on
your voting habits?

Probably would, but I miss a lot of his posts. When I have my filters
active I see very little OT stuff.... and his sig line has even
excluded a lot of his OnT posts. I'll be glad when this iteration of
Agent is finished so I can cut the filters back on....

Give me a break Gene. Most of Harry's posts are done so without being noted
as OT.

How about another excuse?

Since you have jumped to such a conclusion, would you care for an
education?

Since so many posters in this newsgroup have elected not to include
the term "OT-" in their subject, thereby making it impossible to
filter using conventional means, I have implemented a personal news
server. It uses grep, filters on any message headers, any body
content....even a sig line.... So, if a word, phrase, or any
combination thereof is used that is included in my hit-list, the
message is dropped.... even if *I* screw up and use one of those
words.

I didn't see any of Harry's messages for months, because he had words
like, "Bush, Neo-Con, Republican, Kerry, Liberal, Democrat, etc" in
his sig line.

In fact, since you quoted some of Harry's original message, if the
filters were on, I'd have never seen *your* post!


I still think you should light up your boat!

Did you know that spell check tries to substitute 'ooze' for the port holes in your cabin?

I just thought I'd pass that on. I think it's the best of all the sig lines, except for mine, of
course. But, if you put some Christmas lights, or maybe a wee tree on the bow, it would be stunning!

I'm thinking about not using it anymore. Some people just get
gibberish when formatted in their newsreader.


Tell 'em to get a decent newsreader. Did you design it yourself?

You should let his posts through. If my posts were able to convince you to
