1. That was fun.
That's a poll I will happily DU-it. It's the rotten, fetid truth. G.W. Bush is the worst ever!

3. The comments are just priceless
AOHELL has changed. Five years ago, it was about 3 to 1 in favor of that stupid asshole.

16. I was there, too. It was shortly after that
that I began searching for alternatives on IRC. I found quite a few of them and dumped AOHELL.

5. Hey - if that were true then Clintons wouldn't have supported him so much
Edited on Fri Nov-09-07 01:10 PM by blm
on his decisions for the two biggest issues from 2001-2006, would they?

Bill wouldn't use his VALUABLE book tour appearances to keep a really BAD president propped up in an election year, would he?

Nope - Bush must have been good enough for Bill to support him so often.

11. Maybe, this is why Rove is so upset with the people on the Internet.
The people in the tubes are much more difficult to manipulate, but if you only got your information from the one way corporate media with no interaction among our selves, you could probably add 20% to Bush's approval rating.

13. This poll contained one very frightening statistic
Who are the 3% that think Bush is the best president ever, and
do they own or have:
A driver's license
A firearm
A job
Children

????


And if so, their addresses should be published because people like that
scare me as much as the worst sex offenders.

24. I think those 3% have a sarcastic side.
Unless Condi got to vote more than once.

26. Has your opinon of Bush changed since he took office in 2001?
Yes.

In 2001 thought he was the most vile disgusting person who ever walked the face of the planet.

Now I realize I was being way too naive.

25. That covers the arms contractors
the oil execs and the preachers who have cashed in bigtime on those faith based tax giveaways.

I'd have expected a higher percentage of them on AOHELL.

21. My opinion of him has not change since 1999 when he first ran for president.
I knew on his inauguration day when people threw tomato's at his limo that we were all fucked. I just couldn't believe he ended up getting the next four years in office. And we still have over a year to go. This has been the longest 7 almost 8 years of my life.
