C-SPAN discussion question: "Is President Bush doing enough campaigning?"

[SpaceCatMeetsMars]

Check out the discussion question in the right-hand corner of the C-Span page. It's --- "Is President Bush doing enough campaigning for the 2004 election?" What are they, nuts? What do they mean by that? What else does the guy ever do?

1. c-span has some very nutty questions sometimes and I love

it when the callers Call them on it!

2. back in my day, they used to CRITICIZE the prez for this

nonstop campaigning was one of those things Mr Clinton got hammered on daily... yet Bush exeeds this level in his FIRST TERM

not to mention breaking the most-time-on-vacation record...

and he's the HIGHEST-PAID PRESIDENT IN HISTORY!!!! He makes DOUBLE what we paid Clinton, and does a FRACTION of the *%#@$*&@^%)* WORK!!!!

:grr:

3. Drop ten and punt.

Personally, I think this latest give-away to special interest IS campaigning. Think about it: 1) EPA gives in to polluters, 2) Medical Emergency requirements eliminated; 3) Approval of contaminated land for sale -- another concession.

It's like telling special interest, "I can do this for you, too, if only you will donate to me."

I call it the Drop Ten and Punt campaign scheme, because he has nothing left to lose.

4. pardon me while i puke!

gagging now...

[Ouabache]

5. Call up and say you think he should drop all the vacations

and Campaign more, so that everyone can see him for the failure he is.

6. gawd, that's dumb

"Is President Bush doing enough warmongering?"

"Should President Bush be working harder to increase our national deficit?"

etc. etc. endless possibilities

7. He can campaign all he wants...

even though it won't do him any good, he can do as much campaigning as he pleases. while it's true he does less work than Clinton and gets paid more, you have to take inflation into consideration...

[arcane1]

8. inflation?

he makes DOUBLE what Clinton, Bush 1, Reagan, etc, made... I believe it was a law written in the 90's that raised the salary

half the brain
half the work
half the employment
half the criticism from the press

twice the deficit
twice warmongering
twice salaried
twice as many lies
