It was scary when people still liked him, the PR crap they would do. I kept thinking "I can't believe people actually fall for this crap." With the polls ranging from 31% to 33%, it is just funny and pathetic.

At 31% approval rating it seems that the king is getting desperate. Anything goes.Even the DOA has to push the line. Irak seems to be the great mistake. GWB finally seems to realize that fact. 9/11 saved his reign for a few years but his inability and moronic actions finally caught up with him, but at what cost to the people? Trillions wasted, a deficit like never before,the US at a low point in international recognition, how much more is possible. Oh ,lets not forget the approval rating of the congress, Bush still has a few points to go down. Without doubt , we are seeing the worst president ever.

Nice to see that the Bush Propaganda Machine (B.P.M.) hasn't lost a single beat, especially now, when USAToday/Gallup poll has Mr. Bush's approval rating at an all time low of 31%. When "Chimpie" is impeached next year after the democrats win control of the Senate and the House and all of his propaganda methods are exposed to the average, FOX watching, CNN listening "joe", 51% of the USA will no doubt have to hang it's collective head in shame, as the Bush Administration's rule will go down as one of the worst periods in this country's political history - well, except for the Christian conservatives, who welcome their Texan "prophet" as a messenger of God to convert all Islamic nations to Christianity, at ANY cost.

God help us all....

In WWII, to enforce adherence to the party line, political commissars were assigned to Red Army units. Even line officers tiptoed around them; no matter how courageous or capable you were, one word from them and you could end up in the Gulag or probing for mines with the toe of your boot.

Aside from the fact that their punitive measures are not quite as severe as that, there doesn't seem to be much difference between old Bolsheviks and new Busheviks.

Fits nicely with the usual middle management nonsense you find in most corporations. Would you like fries with your war?

"Two peanuts were walking down the street, and one was assaulted....

...by Al-Qaeda trained Iraqi insurgents who are nonetheless in their last throes as freedom is on the march! USA! USA!"

But when I was in city gov't I was aske to give a welcome speech to the feds on a grand opening on a federal project. Five minutes max, right? Well, two guys showed up at my office with digrams and flip charts and told me what "the administration" (Bush 1) would like to hear in the speech. I was also prepared for what to do in case of a terrorist attack (this was pre September 11) and what to do in case of an assasination attempt (on the friggin head of the DOE)

Yeah, let me tell you if they want rutubagas and WMD tied together they make it pretty dang clear.

I did as I was told and received a very lovely red, white and blue boquet for my efforts.

The USDA's involvement is no surprise. Through their pushing of genetically modified seeds overseas, they have made it illegal for Iraqi farmers to save back their seeds from previous harvests-- a practice since civilization began. All to benefit the Monsantos of the world.
