Bush's Ratings Much Higher Than The Democrat Congress
By Gordon Bishop (11/06/07)
America's taxpayers and voters are being fed false information by the liberal mainstream media, which continue to report that just above everyone in the USA "hates" President George W. Bush.
Wrong!
Bush’s ratings by all media polls puts the President in a much more popular standing than the Democrat-controlled Congress.
It’s Bush 31 percent. Congress 11 percent.
That makes Bush three times more popular than the do-nothing United States Congress.
So much for the “truth” by the “drive-by (liberal) media,” a new description of the liberal mainstream media coined by the nation’s most popular radio commentator, Rush Limbaugh, who reaches more than 20 million listeners a week.
Bush recently scolded the Democrat-controlled Congress for having “little to show for all the time that has gone by.”
Trying to shape the political debate, Bush used a morning news conference to lecture lawmakers about their failure to complete action on any spending bills to keep the U.S. government running or to send him legislation dealing with education, housing and other priority matters.
Saying he did not share any blame for Congress’ failure to act, the President said, “I think it is their fault that bills aren’t moving.”
No kidding.
The House is run by the Far Left liberal Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi, who is based in the socialist capital of America (San Francisco), and the leftist Harry Reid of Nevada, the majority Democrat leader in the U.S. Senate. What a pair of hypocritical yo-yo’s, who confusingly have two positions on every issue. That’s the way liberals avoid having any accountability or responsibility in any legislation working its way through Congress.
With his presidency in its final 15 months, Bush is running out of executive powers in pushing his own agenda through Congress.
The only control he really has is the presidential veto power, which works almost every time because the House of Representatives more often than not support the President on the Republicans’ legislative agenda.
Congress so far has been unable to override his rejection of troop withdrawal deadlines in Iraq and expanded stem cell research. The House also failed to override his veto on an expansion of a popular children’s health insurance program. On this issue, the liberals wanted to give children whose families have health insurance coverage if they earn less than $80,000. Those families are able to pay the monthly insurance premiums because of their high-income bracket.
Don’t let them fool you. What the liberals really want is national health care, which the Clintons (Bill and Hillary) have been trying to push through Congress since they took over the White House in 1993.
So far, Congress does not want a costly and inefficient government-run health care system. It doesn’t work in Great Britain and it doesn’t work in Canada.
America is already a socialist State, following in the path of the socialist European countries.
Voters and taxpayers have probably forgotten that America was founded as a Constitutional Republic that supports a capitalist society – not a liberal, socialist, Marxist (communist) society.
Yes, America is losing its once independent, law-abiding citizens and elected public officials.
America is becoming a big fat, lazy, indifferent society, driven by money and materialism. “What’s in it for me!” is their theme song. We’ve become a “Me-Me” society, with the rare exception of those great patriotic and free enterprise leaders like Microsoft’s Bill Gates and his chess partner, Warren Buffet, the world’s two wealthiest individuals.
We are blessed with a limited number of Gates’ and Buffet humanitarians and philanthropists.
Unfortunately, too many of America’s nonprofit Foundations (like the Fords and Rockefellers) have been taken over by liberals who prefer socialism to a free enterprise system that rewards the best and brightest, not those who have inflated our soon-to-be-bankrupt Welfare and Medicaid systems, which suck up trillions of tax dollars to support a socialist society.
The Clintons and their liberal sycophants want Government to be their keeper from the cradle-to-the-grave.
That’s the only reason New York State Senator Hillary Clinton is running for President: To make our once free and brave country the biggest “Nanny State” in the world.
God Bless America!
Pardon me, that blessing no longer works. The socialists have turned America into a secular society. God and religion are no longer leading the way in this corrupt and “Anything Goes” society.
Welcome Sodom and Gomorrah!!! – the most sinful place in the Bible.
