Since he is above the law, Dick Cheney probably counts as 27%…and the other 1% is simply a calculating error.
July 31st, 2007 at 11:11 am28 percent: Percentage of Americans who have a favorable opinion of lying!
The truth will set you free, unless you’re one of those 28 percenters.
July 31st, 2007 at 11:14 amNot too shocking, thats about what Bush’s approval rating is at.
Democrats are trying to get him impeached by the way, Gonzalez… not Bush.

28 percent.
Hmmmmm.
Sounds like there is a pretty consistent base of dead-enders who support GDumbya, Darth Cheney, Gonzo and the rest of these Keystone Kops.
Sad. Very sad.
July 31st, 2007 at 11:16 amTP, would it be possible to get a thread concerning the Middle East arms deal?? Just asking, thanx!
July 31st, 2007 at 11:17 amI suspect this 28% is comprised of the usual sheeple who will stand by the guy they voted for and his entire staff, no matter what (and most of them are in “la-la-la-I-can’t-hear-you” mode).
How long before the first troll appears to compare this to the mythical “14% for the Democrat-controlled congress”???
July 31st, 2007 at 11:17 am3…2…1…
I’m very surprised.. Who ARE these people? I would have guessed single digits..
July 31st, 2007 at 11:17 amThe same Americans (I use the term loosely here) also believe the following:
Bush is a great leader, Churchillian in stature.
July 31st, 2007 at 11:18 amThe war in Iraq is going well.
Saddam attacked us on 9/11.
Saddam and Osama bin Laden were friends.
Saddam really did have WMDs, and they were all moved to Syria.
Terrorism has decreased under Bush’s reign.
The earth is 6,000 years old.
Global warming doesn’t exist.
Only 28% of Americans still drink from the Neocon, kool-aid dispenser even though it tastes like sh*t.
Some people, however, like the taste of sh*t.
July 31st, 2007 at 11:18 amWow…that number looks VERY familiar….where have I seen it before?
July 31st, 2007 at 11:20 amyea, and they all work at the Thug House.
July 31st, 2007 at 11:20 amThis is interesting and all, but the fact is, public opinion doesn’t really enter into it. Gonzo is guilty of perjury at the very least…that much is self-evident. He needs to pay for this crime (as well as others), public favor or disfavor notwithstanding.
Oh yeah…cue idiot trolls squawking: “Congress approval rate 19%” in 3…2…1…
July 31st, 2007 at 11:20 amI prefer to think of the glass as 72% full.
July 31st, 2007 at 11:20 amThe Kool-Aid Kidz strike again.

July 31st, 2007 at 11:21 amThe 28% were under the impression that Alberto Gonzalez was a cartoon character.
July 31st, 2007 at 11:21 amI’m one of the 28%.
I like his style.
July 31st, 2007 at 11:22 am28% seems high, and is depressing, but if you think about it, and think about the influence that the wrong-wing has on the media, and the continually wall of noise coming from wrong-wing blowhards on the radio, and then realize that with ALL OF THAT they can only fool 28% - it doesn’t look so bad (just trying to find some kind of positive in this).
July 31st, 2007 at 11:23 am28% are the ones who would love to turn America into a nazi like state, you know killing the non-believers, gays, and anyone else that doesn’t kiss the ass of the govt and church.
Just look at DuhRyll, people think he’s a parody, sadly I know many people like him. Brainwashed to the max.
July 31st, 2007 at 11:23 amComment by TripMaster Monkey — July 31, 2007 @ 11:20 am
As much as I’d love to see Gonzo go down for perjury, I think Bush would just pardon him anyway. Then we would see Attorney General Lynne Cheney. I would rather Gonzo just stay in office until the next elections. He makes such a wonderful millstone.
July 31st, 2007 at 11:24 amWhat if some of those 28%-ers have an unflappably favorable opinion of Gonzales not because of his testimony, but because he is the first latino Attorney General?
July 31st, 2007 at 11:24 amOT:
July 31st, 2007 at 11:25 amI read a very interesting article on Huff Post last night:
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/ coleen-rowley/ dangers-of-a-cornered-geo_b_58429.html
regarding Bush when cornered. A lot to think about. It is written by Coleen Rowley (FBI whistleblower), Dr. Justin Frank (who wrote “Bush On The Couch), and a few other veteran intelligence analysts.
28%= Faux News viewers + Right Hate Radio listeners + Those making BIG $$$ + The uninformed + The Too busy + Too lazy + Too selfish

July 31st, 2007 at 11:30 amHere’s another good reason not to watch Fox Noise. They admit that they lie to the viewers. Go figure.
July 31st, 2007 at 11:30 amCrap, what happened to my link?
July 31st, 2007 at 11:31 amThe 28% were under the impression that Alberto Gonzalez was a cartoon character.
I know Speedy Gonzales. Speedy Gonzales.
Alfredo, you’re no Speedy Gonzales.
July 31st, 2007 at 11:31 amCarlos likes the taste of Gonzo? Interesting, but why should anyone care, maricón?
28%ers are the last bastion of Bush defenders, the pus-filled core of support. Born again Christians who live in an alternate reality where the orders come down from above and they are beyond question. If Bush says we are making “progress” in Iraq, well, who are these people to question his authority?
Bush says Tillman was a hero and died fighting for freedom. And so it goes.
Will these blind followers vote Repugnicunt in 2008? Would a cow lick Lott’s wife?

JG - thanks for the link to that article. One paragraph really scared the $hit out of me:
“George W. Bush is without conscience, and it would require a lengthy series of clinical sessions to find out what happened to it. By identifying himself as all good and on the side of right, he has been able to vanquish any guilt, any sense of doing wrong.”
Please impeach these bastards before we all wind up in nazi germany II
July 31st, 2007 at 11:35 amWell, crap.
July 31st, 2007 at 11:37 amOkay, I’m gonna try this one more time. Grrrr

July 31st, 2007 at 11:44 amJG - thanks for the link to that article. One paragraph really scared the $hit out of me:
As someone who has lived with a person with similar character/psychological deficits and behavioral traits for 16 years, I recognized a lot of what Dr. Frank describes very early on in this Administration. It was weird to have someone write down what I thought I was seeing as well.
This article is a really important read. That is something to consider - the danger of a cornered Bush. Americans better act quickly here.
The book by Dr. Justin Frank is also a very good read “Bush On The Couch”.
July 31st, 2007 at 11:45 amIn other news today, the WH announced clarification on Dick Cheney’s status…
Given the fact he is not categorized as congressional or executive branch, officials have set up an office at the D.C. Zoo.
Disputes to his species origin, primate or hawk, have been settled.
Visitors should be forewarned that this creature has been known to hurl feces & shout obscenities. Please warn your children.

July 31st, 2007 at 11:56 amSorry to interrupt your little tantrum Tony, but calling us rascists just doesn’t hold water. In Montana, the saying is, “That dog don’t hunt”, or “That sheep don’t back up”.
I can’t speak for all, but I treat Anglo Bush and Mexican Gonzo the same, I hate both the evil lying bastards.
Ruining this country and what we stand for for their pathetic egos should make any real American hate these pukes.

July 31st, 2007 at 12:17 pmDaryll, probably my one and only serious question to you, but if you believe what you post, why do you think Bush is on the same side as your Christ?
Because he says he is? Have you ever considered that maybe he just makes shit up because he knows it plays well in the church? It’s a game little man, and you are a pawn being manipulated by KKKarl. They looked around and said, now which segment of society is the most easily manipulated, who are the most gullible, the ones who accept and don’t question authority…
AHA! Look at the Christians, these buffoons are predisposed to ignoring reality, and if we can get them to fall for our schtick, they can be our base. (which translates to Al Qaeda in Arabic, by the way.
Think for yourself little puppet, you are being played for a fool.
July 31st, 2007 at 12:18 pmRepeat after me:
Polls are psychological tools and should be IGNORED and never quoted, until they go away like their equally useless predictor the reading of tea leaves!
Gonzo’s approval rating is NOT 28%, it is UNKNOWN, because NOT enough measurements have been taken to KNOW.
There is no “magical tool” that can let you look at less than 1% of a picture and tell you what the entire 100% of the picture looks like, unless the picture has a repeating pattern.
Many pictures have repeating patterns, but few opinions occur in repeating patterns, because very few people answer polls based on the roll of a dice or other “random” manner!
Because people’s opinions do not occur in a repeating pattern, random sampling cannot be used, therefore at least 80% of the population must be sampled in order to make a prediction that one can be sure that is at least an 80% certainty of being correct.
Why is this so hard for people to grasp?

Just what about “liberal beliefs” do you find “filthy”?
And don’t try to claim that “abortion” is a “belief”. I’m talking about beliefs, like the belief that the poor deserve protection just like the rich, and freedom of religion is the only way for both government AND faith to be completely free. Beliefs like all humans deserve dignity in their individual paths to God and in their lives.
Could you explain some of these types of beliefs that most liberals would recognize, and tell us how they are “filthy”?
Thanks.

Comparing yourself to the lake of fire? Guess you see yourself as a Soldier of God? Kinda like Eric Randolph?

Sure he does, and you can join by following Acts 2:38 and stop supporting homosexuality, the illegal infiltration of other countries, unequally taxing the rich, supporting killing our future, being disobedient to the head of this country, stop spreading lies about the bible……..

July 31st, 2007 at 1:03 pmbeing disobedient to the head of which country? Where Christians in Uganda reguired to meet this condition? How about Christains in all of the countires with shitty heads of government. I have never heard this about Jesus before. See now I am really bummed. First I thought it was all crap. Then I thought Jesus might have been a pretty cool “anti establishment, stick it to the man” type of righteous guy. Now you tell me that part of his message was to cowtow to whoevers in charge. I’m soo confused on this whole Christian thing.
Daryll: Have you considered editing “Christianity for Idiots”

So why aren’t you out killing gays/lesbians as demanded of you by Leviticus??

Daryll, you’re spinning your wheels.
July 31st, 2007 at 1:14 pmAh, there you are, Daryll! Care to answer my question from post #73?
Thanks.
July 31st, 2007 at 1:15 pm“Bush is a great leader, Churchillian in stature. The war in Iraq is going well.
Saddam attacked us on 9/11. Saddam and Osama bin Laden were friends. Saddam really did have WMDs, and they were all moved to Syria. Terrorism has decreased under Bush’s reign. The earth is 6,000 years old. Global warming doesn’t exist.”
Don’t forget that there were dinosaurs on Noah’s Ark. That new Creationism museum down in Cincy says so. Poor Noah must have had one helluva time keeping the T-Rexes from eating the camels.
July 31st, 2007 at 1:16 pmHey hold on there a darned minute. Daryll’s still behind on answering mine!!
July 31st, 2007 at 1:19 pmNo! Me first!
July 31st, 2007 at 1:22 pmDaryll,
Your God sucks. And swallows. If you don’t get on your knees and praise Poseidon right now His army of octopus and marlin will mow your ass down for blaphemy.
There is only one true God, and His name is Poseidon!
Why do you think New Orleans was destroyed by water? You think it was the titty bars you simpleton? It was all the evangelical Jesus freak churches that pissed off the true God and he destroyed New Orleans just as he will Salt Lake City.
July 31st, 2007 at 1:27 pmGive him a minute. Navigating the complex chain of command structure in the “Army of Jesus” can be time consuming. It’s not like He just talks to people. Well other than crazy people of course
July 31st, 2007 at 1:28 pmThere seems to be that 25%, some of whom think George and co. are doing great, or that America can’t do wrong no matter what, or are making enough money to keep ignoring reality. The sooner they get marginalized instead of played to, the sooner we might see our soldiers start coming home instead of staying in the heat.
July 31st, 2007 at 1:31 pmDaryll, I’ve asked this before, and you never seem to be willing to answer:
Just what about “liberal beliefs†do you find “filthy�
And don’t try to claim that “abortion†is a “beliefâ€. I’m talking about beliefs, like the belief that the poor deserve protection just like the rich, and freedom of religion is the only way for both government AND faith to be completely free. Beliefs like all humans deserve dignity in their individual paths to God and in their lives.
Could you explain some of these types of beliefs that most liberals would recognize, and tell us how they are “filthy�
Thanks.
Comment by spit take — July 31, 2007 @ 12:32 pm
Here’s a few, continuing to give to those who refuse to help themselves (Jesus said, “In order to eat, you must work”), unequally taxing the rich (we are all equal in the eyes of God), supporting same sex relationships (Jesus said marriage was made for a man and a women). Spit take, there is more to the bible than “Love thy neighbor”.

July 31st, 2007 at 1:54 pmAnd when you felt his holy spirit did you give it a big squeeze Daryll? Did he visit you in the night and bless you with his touch? And did your butt hurt just a little the next morning?

Comment by Daryll — July 31, 2007 @ 1:49 pm
Where exactly did Jesus say “marriage was made for a man and a women”? Can you point me to the book, chapter and verse?
And sure, there is more to the Bible (I, too, capitalize it out of respect) than “Love thy neighbor”. But if you had to reduce it to a single concept, that comes pretty close.
But I have to say, Daryll, your reading of the Bible, especially the New Testament, sounds pretty misshapen to me. Almost like you had to distort it in order to shoehorn it into a right-wing philosophy.
I mean, really — “continuing to give to those who refuse to help themselves “??? “unequally taxing the rich”??? That’s the best you can do? THAT is what you consider “filthy”?
Hooo-kay…

Matthew 19, verses 4-6:
4″Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’[a] 5and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’[b]? 6So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate.”
July 31st, 2007 at 2:11 pmSame bottom feeding, knuckle dragging, troglodytes who support all the other thugs in the crime family. They should be herded up and shipped to Gitmo for some water boarding…it is so much fun and gets so much truth from the victims.

So why isn’t divorce a bigger issue than gay marriage? This applies to divorce more than same sex marriage and divorce is mentioned many times.
July 31st, 2007 at 2:44 pmDaryll sez:
Yeah…I guess this is why God made Adam, and then made Eve only as an afterthought when he realized he’d forgotten to make Adam a suitable mate.
Silly God….he should have never smoked that joint on the third day.
July 31st, 2007 at 2:53 pm28% seems to be the baseline in America. No doubt this 28% live in trailers throughout Utah and Appalachia, have more fingers and webbed toes than they have teeth, sign their voters registration cards with an “X”, watch Bill O’Reilly until Andy Griffith comes on, and nod their heads with smile whenever they are asked if they “Approve of. . . .”
July 31st, 2007 at 3:35 pm14% favorable opinion of democrat controlled congress. Is Gonzales really twice as good as democrats.

Paul, Paul, Paul… your talking points are a little stale. Might try keeping up. Here’s the latest poll reported.
It has Congress at 37% and Bush at 34%.
Oops. There goes another perfectly good talking point.
July 31st, 2007 at 3:56 pmpaul:
Nice try, liar. You forget that Congress includes Republicans. Here’s the truth behind your ignorance:
“In fact, the most recent poll conducted by Stephanopoulos’ own network — a July 18-21 Washington Post-ABC News poll — showed President Bush with a lower approval rating than Congress. The poll found that Bush has a 33-percent approval rating and a 65-percent disapproval rating, and that Congress has ratings of 37 percent approval and 60 percent disapproval.
Moreover, when respondents were polled on congressional Democrats and Republicans separately, congressional Republicans received a 34-percent approval and a 64-percent disapproval rating, while congressional Democrats received an approval rating of 46 percent and a disapproval rating of 51 percent.”

July 31st, 2007 at 5:08 pmWow, he only beat the Democratic Congress by 14 points. What an animal.
July 31st, 2007 at 5:17 pmCreamcrusher:
I don’t know what fantasy poll you’re pulling out of your alimentary, but the one I see says: Approval ratings, Gonzalez= 28%; Democrats in Congress = 46%. Read the rest of the story instead of making it up (yeah, I know it’s easier and that’s what your buttbuddy Limpaugh says to do, but it’s not real). Also, just because idiots like you call it a “Democratic Congress” doesn’t negate the fact that around 45% of them are Republicans, and they’re the jackasses pulling all the filibusters.
