    Rasmussen always adjusts their polling data at the very end (right before the election) so they can look good. But prior to that they had McCain doing far better than he actually did.

    They are a polling firm that tries to make (positive) news for the GOP with their poll results.

    They are not reputable.

    That makes absolutely no sense whatsover.

    How can Rasmussen "adjust their polling data at the very end (right before the election)" unless Rasmussen already knows what the numbers really are?

    I'm not accusing you of making up whatever it is you're saying, but I don't get it - what's your point? What are you claiming about Rasmussen?

    but I think Obama is at least doing the right when he has decided to withdraw our troop.

    is this a joke? It seems as though you're being sarcastic since Obama was the greatest earmark/pork barreler in the Senate. It came up many time during his campaign and he never denied it. Even the stimulus is filled with his own ear mark agenda.

    He also is already announcing tax hikes on middle class and small business. This isn't rumors, this is the truth!

    Incorrect. The most inexperienced President was Zachary Taylor, who had no experience in any elected office.

    I have a feeling Obama will be a solid 55-65% approval rating President.

    I think George Washington had the hardest job as far as experience goes. At least Taylor and Obama had history to fall on.


    Does Taylors inexperience make Obama the 2nd most inexperienced President?
    LOL it that how you defend him?

    George Washington is the father of the United States. :)

    The surge worked. Thanks for your support.

    Kind of Orwelian :D

    my point exactly. George Washington was in virgin territory and I think he did an amazing job.

    Obama is more two-faced than John Kerry was. He agreed that there was too much pork barrel crap, he agreed the surge worked, and he fights for human values, yet he supports abortion, approves a 410billion $$ bill with 8,500 ear marks, and while he approves another surge in Afghanistan in one breath, announces a 'pull out date' in another.

    Obama has just luanched a $3.5 trillion spending plan for the 2010 fiscal year that contains a $1.2 trillion deficit.

    Obama is going to be more popular than ever with all the money he is handing out. That is until someone has to pay for it or inflation runs out of control.

    Actually, he isn't. He's keeping the full troop force in one year longer than Bush's timetable. And Obama wants to keep 50,000 troops in Iraq past that time for an indeterminate amount of time.

    And Obama wants warrentless wiretaping! Hey, it's George Bush Term 3!!!

    No, just informing the poster that he is not the least experienced President.

    Look at Eisenhower, he was but a war general, remember as one of the best U.S. presidents.

    The approve and disapprove lines keep getting closer together. At some point they will create an X.

    A similar picture can be seen if you graphs Bush's Approval rating vs. the last 2 years of Congress's spending increases.

    One goes up, the other goes down. Care to guess which was which?

    What's funny is that I kept saying two things:

    a. The more people 'vote for change' the more things stay the same!
    b. This economic stimulus package will result in inflation. The government has even mentioned the idea of printing more money. BAD idea.

    I've found that whipping my ass with hundred dollar bills is a better use of my money than letting the government do the same. I'm a bit chafed, but one things for sure. My rear has gone green!

    Trying to rewrite history ;)

    Eisenhower was Supreme Commander of the Allied forces in Europe, with responsibility for planning and supervising the successful invasion of France and Germany in 1944–45. In 1951, he became the first supreme commander of NATO.

    As recognition of his senior position in the Allied command, on December 20, 1944, he was promoted to General of the Army

    Eisenhower had plenty of foreign policy experience, and executive experience managing the invasion of Europe which was a logistical nightmare. In fact, Eisenhower was one of the most experienced Commander in Chief in US history.

    The American public wants the handouts. People don't learn. The Republican approval rating is down to 25%.

    There's always someone dumber.

    Dick Morris believes that the Dems in Congress have been running the show since the Monica scandal hit the fan and Republicans threatned removing him.

    In 2001 the Democats had a 51 to 49 majority in the Senate.

    Barney Frank's gay boyfriend was an executive with Fannie Mae From 1991 to 1998 while Rep. Barney Frank’s led efforts to deregulate Fannie Mae and push the CRA.

    The two lived together in a Washington home until they broke up in 1998, a few months after Moses ended his seven-year tenure at Fannie Mae.

    Rahm Emanuel was probably living in the basement rent free :D

    Bogey, they've been planning this stuff for the better part of 30 years. Its not like they woke up one day and decided to spend all this money. They've been authoring this spending bill for at least the last three decades.
