Cafferty: We're in some serious trouble here, boys and girls
Cafferty: "Let's hope Arlen Specter is still around, because he may be the only thing standing between us and a full blown dictatorship."

Foj-
Yeah but at least it is quick and painless, unlike leaving someone to drown after an "unmemorable night." Just ask Jack...oops, I mean Ted Kennedy...  |

Thanks Tom, The point here is that Cafferty is a Conservative. His comments further outline the split between the Neo Cons and the William Buckley type Cons.
Bush is at 29%: his base has all but left the building.

Cafferty is a conservative? I don't watch him on CNN, but I remember when he was the straight man for Sue Simmons on Live at 5. I always thought he was just another run-of-the-mill, blow-dried, air head newsreader.

3,
Foj and the usual libs are simply trying to justify their own political party by making these type of threads. Since they can't at the ballot box they have to find other ways to feel good about themselves. I can't wait until they don't get control in November. What excuse will Foj use then? And I hate to point out the obvious (not really) but Bush isn't running so his polls numbers aren't nearly as important as Foj believes. |

Nor is the fact that he won in 2004, southerner.In fact, his win is even less significant than his polls, which might really might have a bearing on the strength of the Republican Party, in general, don't you think?

Nice to see my fellow republicans (I assume that's what they are) downplaying the way our fearless leader (here I agree with Bill Maher, who calls GWB "that retard")is gutting, undermining, and eliminating our guaranteed constitutional rights to privacy and freedom of speech one by one.
Nice job in DC: a Foggo out, a Brown out, a Goss out, and my rights to freedom of speech on the way out.
The clowns in the White House are not Republicans. They're transplanted hold-overs from the Communist regime of the DDR (East Germany) under Walter Ulbrichts, famous for listening posts, neighbor spying on neighbor, accusations, and eventually, clandestine arrests in the middle of the night (which in this administration, we'll no doubt soon experience).

Quote:(CNN) -- In a new poll comparing President Bush's job performance with that of his predecessor, a strong majority of respondents said President Clinton outperformed Bush on a host of issues.
The poll of 1,021 adult Americans was conducted May 5-7 by Opinion Research Corp. for CNN. It had a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.
Respondents favored Clinton by greater than 2-to-1 margins when asked who did a better job at handling the economy (63 percent Clinton, 26 percent Bush) and solving the problems of ordinary Americans (62 percent Clinton, 25 percent Bush).
On foreign affairs, the margin was 56 percent to 32 percent in Clinton's favor; on taxes, it was 51 percent to 35 percent for Clinton; and on handling natural disasters, it was 51 percent to 30 percent, also favoring Clinton.
Moreover, 59 percent said Bush has done more to divide the country, while only 27 percent said Clinton had.
When asked which man was more honest as president, poll respondents were more evenly divided, with the numbers -- 46 percent Clinton to 41 percent Bush -- falling within the poll's margin of error. The same was true for a question on handling national security: 46 percent said Clinton performed better; 42 percent picked Bush.
Check that part in large type. Americans think Bush is weak on everything now, including taxes and foreign affairs -- and it's exacerbated by the fact that they don't trust him.
That is why the polling matters. Here's one place where Southerner and I have some common ground, we're both happy to see paralysis. Him, becuase it prevents liberal initiatives. Me, because it prevents conservative ones. Not that liberal initiatives would have had a prayer if Bush's poll numbers were high, but that's Southerner's problem to unravel.
When Bush presents an initiative, or makes (yet another) explanation of the wiretap program, the first instinct is more and more, "yes, but what is he really doing." |
