A theory. Cheney comes out & growls. Causes approval numbers to dip

EVEN further.

Bush comes out and spews the same old tired crap. Offers nothing new. Causes approval numbers to dip EVEN further.


This Administration is a one-trick pony and everyone's getting sick of it.

That they're even more stupid than we thought they were ?

They think the opposite is true, and usually the opposite *is* true.


Sorry I didn't make that clear enough.

So, let's take up a collection to start an 'All George and Dick, All The Time' show ... like Wayne's World ...

That should get us a dual impeachment in record time !!

:applause:

I think it will have the opposite effect.

When the criticism mounted BEFORE the war, they went on the attack. They slimed Wilson, Ritter, and all the dems who voiced dissent.

Then when the whole Wilson thing spun out of control, it was because they attacked the dissenters.

So, now they think that they can attack their way out of a problem caused by their earlier attacks. Huh?

Isn't that a warning sign of a psychopathy? Repeating the problem thinking it's a solution, i mean.

I just wonder when it will dawn on them that it's NOT WORKING ANYMORE.

And what will happen then?

How can this miss that? The poll numbers indicate the ship has sailed. It's not coming to back to port. No war has ever gone from extremely unpopular back to full support. Once the people turn against the concept, there's not a sales job in the world that will change their mind.

everyone got hip to that, so that sort of died down.

It's like a rat hitting the lever over and over but no pellet is coming out.

Their learning curve seems to be pretty big, however.

I'm afraid that if they fall much further, or are really facing being ousted, this is the one thing they'll try.

Contrary to the popular opinion around here, I DO think it would work to bolster their popularity. I suspect the American people would cower in fear and embrace "a strong leader".

Discuss.

Nothing more to discuss. The whole game is rooted in protecting the people from the boogey man. Another attack shows that in five years, nothing worked. And, the dems, no longer cowering in fear of the mighty Silverspoon, would attack and show the house of cards as a weak and ineffectual game to the repubs.

As I have always respected your opinion on these boards. However, I don't have as much faith in the populace as you do.

First, there would be no one to call them on their failures-- who would actaully come out and say they failed while tens/hundreds/thousands more are dead? No, I think anyone taking that line would once again be cast as "not pulling together" and "siding with the terrorists".

Second, I think they would engineer the LIHOP to occur outside of the US; this allows them to still claim they are protecting America while blaming the failure on security in the overseas country. It works to instill the same fear, yet places the blame elsewhere.

My 2 cents.

Man, I've got to stop thinking up ways for ChimpCo to screw us up more.

this,,,, and they are wrong,,,, The public is not quite as gullible and stupid as they believe,,,,

it is interesting to watch.

they control everything, why are they so angry all the time?

They should go out of their way to stop these two from regurgitaing the same pap.

It only works for the very well-known 30% or so of the hardcore Koolaid guzzlers.

these kind of things. Dick's a one trick pony and the chicks are getting sick.


Is Linda a "Cowch" Cow?

reminds me of the hardcore racist in Twelve Angry men the original, who held onto his beliefs until finally when everyone else had had enough of him, and isolated him, he broke down and admitted the error of his ways.

I don't know if these morans* can do that though, see that everyone thinks they're fools and admit the error of their ways.

Rrrruf.

What about an elephant?

I'll wrap 'em up in cellophant.

Why, you're nothing but a big bully!
