Is President Bush Done or Can He Make a Comeback?

The Talking Points Memo this evening: Is President Bush done or can he make a comeback? A new Gallup poll has the president's job approval rating at just 31 percent, the lowest ever for him. Only 52 percent of conservatives approve of the job Mr. Bush is doing and that's his base. Only four presidents have scored lower approval ratings since the Gallup poll began tabulating Oval Office performance: Truman, Nixon, Carter and Bush the elder. The question now is: Can Bush the younger regain the confidence of the American people? Now there's no clear answer to that question. But one thing is certain: Mr. Bush can only turn things around himself. No surrogate can do it and the president must speak directly to the folks because the press isn't going to help him. We all know that.

Here's what the president must do right now: Go to the Southern border and announce concrete steps to stop the millions of people trying to illegally cross into this country. Whether it's a wall or the military or a massive deployment of Border and Homeland Security agents, securing the border is a must if the president wants to win back conservative support.

Hold monthly press conferences about Iraq only. Open with specific remarks on what progress is being made and answer all questions directly. Demonstrate he has the Iraq situation under control. Appeal to the oil companies to hold the line on pricing and quickly develop ethanol. We're fighting a War on Terror in this country. Profiteering on a vital necessity cannot be allowed. Get tough with big oil, Mr. President. Stop the spending madness. Cut back discretionary spending by 10 percent now by issuing an executive order. Push to make tax cuts permanent. Those cuts have created a dynamic economy that is the biggest strength of the Bush administration. And finally, make more changes like the CIA chief. Americans are losing faith in the Bush administration. New players give new hope.

Talking Points understands that President Bush believes history will exonerate him, but the USA needs to solve some tough problems now. The border, Iraq, oil prices, take those on directly, Mr. President and you can be the comeback kid. Stay the course, and, well, there will be some very unfriendly new faces on Capitol Hill come November.

****NEWSFLASH!!!!****

Hey Dildo, you ARE the press. :eyes:

He's going to screw up even more profoundly, and to drop even further in the estimation of intelligent and patriotic Americans.

Bush will have the support only of fascisistic Homelanders as he continues his reign of shame, corruption, ineptitude, and treason.

...and he got Roberts, and he got Scalito, so yes...he's NOT "done."

We can hopefully SLOW the bleeding if not stop it altogether...

:patriot:

That'll drive his approval ratings to goose egg!

:shrug:

I'll bet he's willing to stick his nose in ALL KINDS OF THINGS.

:evilgrin:

Jenna probably slipped some rolling papers into his jacket pocket.

The solution to our energy problems!!! All Hail Switchgrass!!!

Actually it looks like Rosemary, have a big one in my backyard.

Overboard. Bill O'Reilly is into Bill O'Reilly. Period. He will go whatever way the wind blows. Like him. He blows.

...they may jump ship a little LATER, but let's make no mistake...they BOTH want their careers to continue beyond 2008.

:patriot:

too big of an audience.

that should tell him something.

What a fucking idiot

Maybe go there and talk to some of the locals?

:rofl:

It worked great for East Germany...didn't it??? :shrug:

he needs to take his wrinkled ass face to a plastic surgeon

Finished!


Kaput!


Over!


Through!


FINITO SENIOR!!!!!!

Even if he's politically wounded, and even if 'mortally' so (such that he has no future in politics--and, of course, he has no further need to be viable politically) he's going to cause an enormous amount of harm before he's his term is over. Even in the seemingly unlikely event of a Democratic majority in one or more houses of Congress, the best we can hope to do is reduce and prevent just some of the damage inherent in his so-called leadership.

Unless this country's experiment in Democracy fails and the forces of ChristoFascism win power, Bushy the Younger's legacy will indeed become known as the worst of the worst, the most malignant Presidency in History (indeed, the worst imaginable). So much for his confidence his legacy will be vindicated by posterity (the same posterity, it turns out, that will still be paying for his greedy, insipid tax cuts and insane spending policies).

Not very many people would even admit what kind of punishments he actually deserves, and worse, neither the government nor the courts would likely be willing to consider such "True Justice". Perhaps it's best that way, better for the government and the office of the Presidency(battered has it has been), but it would hardly count as fair and equal justice. Still, to see the nation free of further harm and the poeple on the way towards healing and greater enlightenment will be enough. The sooner, the better...

run for Senate as a Dem or Independent?

What country would he bomb? What minority group will he scapegoat this time to get him up in the polls?

A Bush comeback is a scary thing. It would mean that things would be so bad that Bush would look good. Things would be so bad that rallying around BushCo would be the last resort.

We don't want to go there Bill. We really don't. We wouldn't recover.
