Former Pres. Clinton never got close to those numbers. But liberal media reporting is "selective". Remember Ross Perot?<br /><br />All this whining/kibitzing about the Presidents hhandling of this and that is just that-whining/kibitzing.<br /><br />Remember, the President is 1/3 of the Fed. The other two being the Judiciary and the House/Senate. He is NOT A KING. Isn't public mis-education (government schools) a wonderful thing?<br /><br />Although, Pres. Clinton ONCE (to his handlers disbelief) declared himself the KING of America.
Perot was the "deciding factor". Pres. Clinton never got close to 50% of the vote. 43% as my memory recalls. It's documented fact that Perot took Rep. votes at a far greater percentage than Dem. votes.<br /><br />Get it?
This, no matter how you add it up, can only be speculation at the very best.<br /><br />However, I could give you this one and respond by saying, what were the republicans thinking when they voted for him?" Is this a sign of their intelligence (those that voted for Perot)?" What great support they showed for their own party. I thought it was the ideolology of the party and not the candidate preaching it. Are all republicans bandwagon jumpers such as the ones that voted for Perot? You called Kerry wishy washy? Wow, what are you saying about those in favor of Perot over your republican endorsed candidate? <br /><br />You may now see the light you have shed by your admittance. Well done DJ.<br /><br />I understand if you wish to retract your statement. And I would not even call you wishy washy if you did.
As we speak, Americans are dying for your right to express your opinion. Even though I might disagree with you, I will fight to the death for your right to express yourself.<br /><br />Plus which, anyone who takes a "protect the president from critisism no matter what" approach should keep in mind that one day we might have a Democratic president, and since I know you are not hypocrites, you will have no choice but to refrain from critical comments.
I applaud the tactic, myself. Just another way to let everyone know what the Lib Dem's really think about their own countrymen. I like it! 
<br /><br />SeanTell that to your Gore loving buddies next time they cry in their beer about how Gore really won and how the electoral college should be abolished.<br /><br />For the record, you man Gore took back his admission of defeat and decided to fight in the courts. Nice try at rewriting history. (a very old and tired tactic of the left - yawn)<br /><br />
Unlike sheeple Dems, Republicans actually vote for the person who they think can best do the job. If there is every straight party votong you'll be lucky to regain power in about 100 years.<br /><br />In the last election, Bush received more votes than any President in history. End of story.
coattails.<br /><br />That's the answer to "Why? President Bush doesn't need to get re-elected."<br /><br />Clinton didn't need to get re-elected either, but IMHO his shenanigans cost the democratic party. Some congressional seats, maybe even control of one house or the other. And the collateral damage from that's gotta be huge. Also maybe even the White House (considering the closeness of the election), and, in turn at least one supreme court justice.<br /><br />"His "approval ratings" are going down because he is no longer kissing the left's a**." That speaks highly of Bush's character.Originally posted by eeboater:<br /> IMO -- the I don't give a hoot about the "Approval ratings" - especially now. Why? President Bush doesn't need to get re-elected. His "approval ratings" are going down because he is no longer kissing the left's a**. Bout friggin time. Send em packing on the vegetable oil powered buses they came riding into this town on. Ev'ry single one of em.<br /><br />
Cant say I'll ever be ashamed to call myself an American. <br />-------------------------------------------------<br />This statement is shameful.

Is that statement based on your own IQ?
