BUSH/GOOPers going NUTs as they approach a dismal 20% approval rating
Their ATTACK Apparatus going into overtime as they desperately try to stem the receding tide....

They come to places like DU to denigrate our DEMs struggling to right the wrongs of Busholini/GOP....

Insidious as ground termites, they undermine, distort, divide, and confuse...typical Pub Tactics

Nevertheless, instead of gaining...the Pubs continue to lose ground/support as their numbers slide ever so downward...into the drain..

Poor Bush...babbling incessently and sometimes, incoherently, seems almost lost as he struggles to stem the tide....

The denial excuse card no longer working, he is flummoxed....

"By co-opting his policies, we can scoop up those votes!"

11. Do you think bush will dip below 20% approval?
I think it's possible. Our previous governor (Ohio, Republican) did.

But even where bush is now - I heard 24% today - it seems obvious that pretty much every thinking person who is paying attention at all disapproves of him.

20. No kidding. Even with a 0% approval rating, Bush would still remain in office.
If there is a god, I think he's playing a really sick fucking joke on us. Bush is on a sinking ship. What the fuck is it going to take to get this asshole out of office?

23. It only took a 19 minute tape to bring down Nixon.
It seems no matter what we throw at Bush, nothing can come of it.

25. Patience my friend..sooner or later the REAL SHIT Gonna Hit the FAN...
Because he is at 25% or so....it won't take much to convince his base of their Flawed Philosophy....

The Evidence is becoming more obvious as I type...

Global Warming hits Atlanta City and surrounding areas/

The Economy is in a RECESSION

Mortage Foreclosures are up at Historic levels

The War is now seen as a wasted DRAIN//both blood and treasure

Bushies record is Dismal

The GOPs Record is a ditto

Revelations of GOPs sexual activities being NOM'd for the STALLS OF SHAME

These and many others including his Bushisms are going do the trick....what will the triggering mechanism be??? We can only hope its soon...

30. that's because way down deep...
way, way, way, way down deep, Nixon could be persuaded that he had done wrong. It is inconceivable to Bush that he could ever be wrong and have to make amends for anything.

28. The irony is...
Edited on Fri Oct-19-07 11:47 AM by RiverStone
As the pukes are slip sliding away, the Dems on The Hill don't seem to be taking advantage of that big flushing sound.

One would think that there would be an equal and opposite result on the Democratic side. Sadly, too many of our own our content to ride along on the pukes sinking ship. See the 92-3 vote which enabled Shrub's war to get another 150 billion.

We could deliver a knock out punch!!! But too many are content to take it slow (minus the likes of Kucinich, Feingold and Dodd - who yesterday showed spine stopping that FISA bullshit)!
