Bush, Hillary Most Admired Americans

PRINCETON, NJ -- President George W. Bush is the clear choice as the most admired man in Gallup's annual poll on this topic, while New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton edges out talk-show host Oprah Winfrey and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice as the most admired woman.

This marks the fifth straight year that Bush has been most admired man, and the fourth straight year that Clinton has been most admired woman. Clinton has topped the list 10 times since 1993. Billy Graham finished among the top 10 most admired men for a record 49th time.

There's little difference between her and McCain.

Bush owes his standing this year to the fact that he is easily the consensus choice among Republicans -- 44% of Republicans mention him. Bush is also the top choice among independents, but trails Clinton among Democrats.

have their head in the fucking sand..and I wouldn't trust a poll that admires fuckhead.

Whoever is the current president always wins. That's mostly because a lot of people are stupid...

brain around that, no way, no how. :wow: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

What's that say about the caliber of the American people. Makes us pretty sick...I think.

There is no way in hell with his approval ratings and the other poll results as of late that this can be true.

This is a skewed poll so that Hillary will be the one we run because they know she will be easy to bet and/or that she is in their pockects already.

Give me a break - Bush = most admired man = BAD POLL

:rofl:

A nation of fools, are we.

Most admired by all the pigeons on the rotting piers of Asbury Park, NJ... This is the most ridiculous bunch of bird-doo I've ever read!

Is this what they have to do to brainwash us?

I'm guessing.

Nineteen percent of the country is insane.

:crazy:

He could have an approval rating of 15% and still win that contest, simply because more people have heard of him than anyone else, and there are a certain percent of people who think that it's patriotic to say that they most admire our president.

~Most secret societies have structure akin to an onion or pyramid with a large base or outer layer that makes-up the majority of the members. These members, called porch brethren in Masonic circles are there for window-dressing and generally have very little idea of the true function of the organization. Then there are the administrators and then at the core a “secret society within a secret society” with many times certain key personnel overlapping into several secret societal organizations.

Like Dylan says:

Ya gotta serve somebody
It may be the devil
Or it may be the lord
But ya gotta serve somebody

The operative word here is gotta. You don't have a choice. If you're not serving what Dylan calls "the lord," then by default you're serving "the devil."

(I use quotes because as far as I can tell, these are all technical terms, the metaphysical equivalent of words like "quark" or "gravity." "The devil" isn't a person, but a mode of relationship.)

The upper class (and criminal class) has always dealt with close social relationships and mysterious rituals. Being a member of the club, or made man fits the rules of control and power. Put a little pomp and circumstance to seal the deal with shades of "Eyes Wide Shut".

I'm listening to KGO (ABC) radio and that's what the discussion is about.

The reason Hillary and * are at the top of the poll is that we are a nation of ignorance.

I'll fix them

1. The Dalai Lama
2. Jimmy Carter
3. Micheal Reames (my boyfriend, because he bitched while I was making this list up)
4. Bono
5. Russ Feingold
6. Dave Matthews
6. Boyd Tinsley
6. Carter Beauford
6. LeRoi Moore
6. Stefan Lessard

They have to be THE BIGGEST SUCKER EVER BORN.

Same holds true to a lesser extent with other cheap media polls- but no sense in going there tonight.

I can't remember a year when that didn't happen.

As for the rest, it's a bunch of uninformed people coming up with the names of women they've heard of.

Anybody with a smidgen of sense will know this list is CRAP
