Poll shows Obama popularity slippage in Va.

George W. Bush stinks out loud.  I mean, I comprehend the words that President Obama’s critics put together, and sometimes baseless, sometimes irrelevant, and sometimes valid, I see what they want to believe, what they want me to believe, what’s the argument to be weighed, the situation to be framed, and what priorities I should have through it all, but George W. Bush stinks out loud.

I see these polls and I’m apathetic. There certainly hasn’t been a conclusive policy situation to date, no Katrina, Enron, 9/11, or Iraq, but opinions; opinions by experts and expert rhetoricians who’ve rarely done more than watched a news broadcast, cited a statistic and threaded it together with pieces of broken philosophy, worldview, and thematic intent, i.e. the Liberal-Conservative “brain trust”, i.e. you, the chatter that seems to think, with over-emphasis on doom or success, that there’s something to be dramatically opined.

This could be socialism inside and out (but haven’t we been taxing for the common good since the Continental Congress, perhaps the word is misused as rhetoric?), but at this point, regardless of competing views on war and peace, energy and economy, George W. Bush stinks/stunk out loud.

President Obama’s detractors, amidst their inherent connections to George W. Bush and his almost philosophical tradition of mismanagement, thus lack credibility. In reverse of this, President Obama’s supporters garnish more credibility in that their dwindling opposition has none. Any reasoned step away from the legacy of George W. Bush is a success.

As we clean up the financial system and muddle through the wars and remember every September that the rats responsible for our solemn moments are still burrowing in their filth, it will still be known that George W. Bush abjectly failed to manage the Federal response throughout it all and so lost the credibility of like philosophy and support, giving President Barack Obama the political imperative in all he does.

Even Henry Kissinger and Zbignew Brezinski, the dying political realists of arch-conservatism find President Obama’s inception to the US mechanism as a much welcome change to George W. Bush’s ill-fated instincts and misadventures.

I would greatly imagine that any poll for years to come in any regards will simply be answered “George W. Bush stinks out loud”.

No surprise on the Dem and Repub results, but the independent results are telling.  They are the ones that swing elections - look out Dems, when you go “all-in”, sometimes you lose it all…..

We’ve all heard the expression “the grass always looks greener on the other side of the road” and politicians are pretty much like grass in the respect that something or someone that hasn’t had a shot to be great, or be horrible, might look a little less wonderful when actually in office.  Honestly,  I didn’t vote for him, but the guy I voted for may have ended up being just as bad/good, depending on your point of view. The truth is that the Bush administration alone didn’t create the mess we’re in, and the Obama administration alone probably won’t get us out of it. I’m sure some good will come of his presidency, and I personally hope it’s a LOT of good. Only time will tell.
He does scare me with his apparent lack of respect for the US values, but he might be on to something, as some would say that we’ve become too arrogant as a nation.  But I personally like the idea that we’ve got something special here, and it’s obvious that we do, because the line of people trying to get in seems to be much longer than the one for people trying to get out.
I’m glad that we now have our first black President, even though I wish it had been someone more experienced, and someone that didn’t appear to be so “socialist” in his way of thinking.  At least the “first black” (or in his case, the first “African-American”, due to his parents being from those countries) thing is behind us.  Years down the road, assuming we survive as a democracy, we’ll also be able to say that we’ve had our first woman, Hispanic, or whatever, President too, and all that “history” will have been made. Maybe then our country will be able get back to just focusing on good government, if there is actually such a thing! I look forward to the day when it TRULY makes no difference what sex, race or ethnicity, our President is.  But as long as there are people that think that makes a difference, we’ll never be able to move on. 
As for now, I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again.  Not my choice, but still my President.  We all better do what we can to make whatever “change” that’s coming be good for us.  Remember, when you remove a brick from a building, you’ve made a change.  But remove too many, and the walls come tumbling down.  Let’s all begin to build up by focusing on what ALL Americans want, and not just what this or that party wants.

Aww, FireFred. What a cute little bumper sticker that would make.

Good thing the far right hasn’t made it to writing actual policy or compound sentences yet.

DRILL BABY DRILL! FIGHT EM THERE SO WE DONT FIGHT EM HERE! FOR US OR AGAINST US! SOCIALISM, BAD!

Hahaha, its like debating children.

RECESSION—when your neighbor loses his job; DEPRESSION—when you lose your job; RECOVERY—when Obama loses his.
