During the past few months, it has became so obvious that you're a knee-jerk liberal, that it's not even funny anymore.

Every single piece of irrelevant info which might hurt your president's 'image' in any way will be a subject of a new thread of yours.

EDIT:
To make it completely clear, I don't 'hate' you. You wouldn't be anything else than pathetic, but since you have any power during the US president elections, you're a minor nuisance as well.

I find Sava amusing...I mean, I never smile while reading any other political post. He should get points for making me laugh.

Tuome--do you disagree with him or do you actually think he's a nuisance?

Nope, of course they won't. But I forget, does the C in CBS stand for Cambodia, Cyprus or Chile?

As with all White House operations, they check and double check all the facts in a State of the Union. If everyone told Bush the facts were accurate, then how is he suppose to know they are not?

Translation: Sava is a troll. A kinder, gentler way of putting it would be to say he exaggerates for effect.

Actually, to be fair to him, he's been pretty open about that in the past. He's reasonably good at it, in that he tends to get responses. He walks that fine line between being too irritating and being boring. [/ode to Sava]

Newsweek poll: drop in approval for Bush on Iraq

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

WASHINGTON, July 12 (Reuters) - Public opinion of President George W. Bush's handling of Iraq has dropped about 20 points since U.S. forces took Baghdad in April, a Newsweek poll said on Saturday.

Bush's approval rating for his handling of the military operation in Iraq fell to 53 percent among those surveyed on July 10-11, from 65 percent in a May 29-30 poll, and a high of 74 percent in an April 10-11 poll taken just after Saddam Hussein was ousted from power in Iraq, Newsweek said.

The president's overall rating slipped to 55 percent from 61 percent in the May poll.

More than half of those polled, 53 percent, said the Bush administration did not purposely mislead the public about evidence that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction in order to build support for the war, while 38 percent said the administration had misled the public.

And in an indication of how the controversy over an incorrect assertion by Bush in his January State of the Union address that Iraq was trying to acquire uranium from Africa was playing to the public, 72 percent said they had not heard about it.

Among registered voters, 50 percent said issues of the economy and jobs would be more important than terrorism and homeland security in determining their vote in next year's presidential elections. Twenty-two percent said terrorism and homeland security would be more important issues.

The registered voters surveyed were split on whether they wanted Bush to serve another term, with 47 percent saying they would like to see Bush re-elected and 46 percent saying they would not, while 7 percent were undecided.

The margin of error for the telephone poll was plus or minus 3 percentage points. Of the 1,017 adults surveyed, 837 were registered voters, and the margin of error for that subgroup was plus or minus 4 percentage points.
Here's a scientific poll for you sticklers... Bush's approval rating has been falling steadily. Nixon bottomed out around 15% IIRC... I predict next month is in the 40's for Bushy...

Not to worry, he's still got some time to start another war, although he is cutting it close.

No, I know it cause it's common knowledge. Besides, didn't you hear Condi Rice on tv recently explain that the CIA approved the ENTIRE State of the Union speech before it was given?
