A full 55 million did not vote for GW Bush. Now after 6 years a full 70 percent of Americans think the nation is headed in the wrong direction. Bu$h had a 47 percent job performance before  his fraud election in 2004. Now it's 36 percent. Among likely voters.\nImpeachment is now a real and present danger for Bu$h and his cronies in the White House and Congress.

The voting system needs to be changed, But you notice they won't do that because it is a matter of control and they want to control the out come no matter what!! Look at the money Bush Bag had this needs to change. It should not be that you can buy the people!! There is still a lot of peopl that need to wake up and look at the truth that Bush and everyone with him needs to go. This country is in the worst shape it has ever been in and these dummies still back him. What is wrong with people, NOTHING THIS BUSH BAG HAS DONE IS ANY GOOD FOR ANYONE EXCEPT CORP AMERICA AND THE RICH, they are the only ones who benifit from this AS* being in office!!!

I couldn't agree with you more.  It's not a matter of strong-minded democrats trying to trash the president because we are bitter about losing the election as most republicans would like to believe.  Look at the facts, this presidency is riddled with scandal, lies, and lost lives....when is it going to stop?  If anyone has ever traveled outside of the US, they know just how much other countries despise us.  It kind of makes you ashamed to be from America.

It will take many, many years.  We have lost the respect of the world and our word means nothing.  When Bush told all of his lies to get us into this war for profit, he spoke on behalf of the American people.  When he was allowed to steal a second term in office, it appears that we accept this man and therefore are okay with the way he does business.  The only thing that could be worse is to sit idly by and accept another rethuglican to finish the job that the current thug started.  PLEASE VOTE A STRAIGHT DEMOCRATIC TICKET and take at least 5 unregistered voters to get registered and drive them to the polls!!! America cannot afford another 8 years with that party in control and frankly unless you are wealthy or absolutely insane, how could any moral person go along with this current president, his administration and the party that supports his thuggery.  Sorry for the rant.....  Peace

There is only something wrong with 37% of the people, they are the ones that still back Bush. Democrats need to get back into power before the repuglicans run America any farther downhill with their supply side economics.

There are all sorts of things not to like about GWB & Co.  In many ways the U.S. is a profoundly different place now.  It's not just the war in Iraq.  \n\nEvery week brings some new scandal, some new corruption on the part of the administration, new lies, new cover-ups, new excuses.  For example, when I heard a couple of days ago that Bush authorized wiretaps without warrants, my first thought was "of course he did."  I thought that because that is simply how he and his administration operate.  Of course they want to imprison people indefinetly without trial or even charges.  Of course they want to use torture and abuse.  Of course they have secret prisons around the world.  The time when anything about Bush could surprise me is long gone.\n\nBut the amazing thing his how much support he continues to enjoy.  Even at his lowest polls gave him close to 40 percent support.  So if you want to be really depressed, remember how disgusting, how reprehensible, how incompetent Bush is, and then realize that 40 percent of Americans approve of him.\n\nBitter aftertaste?  I would have to say that things are actually much worse here than you imagine.  In addition to Bush we have a right-wing propaganda empire.  We're increasingly overrun with fundamentalist and right-wing "Christians" who hold more and more power and influence, and who are in bed with the political right wing.  Meanwhile our supposedly "liberal" press is off covering Michael Jackson and Paris Hilton.\n\nSo it's worse than you think, and it's not going to get better any time soon.  Sorry about that.  I didn't vote for the son of a bitch, and anyone who did deserves him.

Because that hole fiasco was a sham of an issue that backfired on the GOP. The general public has a very low opinion of many big name Republicans right now and they're scared.  Like flag burning and gay marriage, they're dragging out all of their 'go-to' conservative issues to get the conservative base energized and out to the polls to vote.  The problem is, the White House knows that Latino voters - who mostly have conservative values - voted Bush into office in 2004 - especially in Ohio and Florida.  Now, they know they've pissed off many, many swing voters and they dropped it like a hot potato.  Plus, many of the the big contributors to their campaigns are employers of aliens and they made calls.

since this year, major polling organizations have showed that george w. bush suffers from an overwhelming public disapproval rate. \n\nthe highest approval rating he received was 47% (with a disapproval rating of 50%) during the january 22 to 25 period conducted by Cook/RT Strategies. the worst rating he received so far was a 33% approval rating and a 57% disapproval rating conducted by Pew during the March 8 to 12 period, and a 60% disapproval rating (and a 37% approval rating) during the march 6-8 period conducted by AP-Ipsos and march 10-12 conducted by CNN/USA Today/Gallup (36% approval rating). you can see more trends at the pollingreport.com site.\n\nhttp://www.pollingreport.com/BushJob.htm\n\nit is worthy to note that, except for the march 2-5 period, bush has not received an approval rating above 40% for the month of march. \n\n\nwhy did he get voted into office? methinks that the republican party is very popular in the central-midwest regions of the US, where bush focused on the issues of family values and security (antiterrorism)-- issues that strike the heart of the people there. there are more voters in those areas combined, compared the pacific and east coasts, which voted for the democratic party.\n\nbut now people are growing more aware of the unbelievable cost of the war on iraq (which is now worth $250.3 billion, as of this writing), the growing casualties, the revelation that there are no weapons of mass destruction found in iraq. hence, his popularity is sliding even among his voters.

You know, I completely agree. When America voted in 2004, they voted for change. So far, all that has happened is more troops have been sent overseas to fight battles that, depending on peronal views, potentially should not have started. Nothing is being done about the other issues [so it seems]. What happened to the morals Americans voted for? What happened to the morals that were presented in the election in order to regain the presidency. Simply what is going on?

366 votes.  Had they needed those votes there would have been a recount there as well. so it doesn't reall matter now 6 years later. \n\nIt didn't matter in Florida either, Bush won no matter how you count the votes.  And all the allegations were considered and thrown out as BS.\n\nAnd when they couldn't win in the Electorial Votes the Dems went on to complain that a majority of people didn't vote for Bush.\n\nDemocrats have tried since then to throw the President under the Bus.  Perhaps they will succede this time

I personally think we should have not allowed it to go on this far. He and his henchmen should have been impeached and thrown out of office when we all found out it was not the truth that we went to war to get the bad weapons out of Iraq. This was a blatant lie to the american people and should have been dealt with right then. But we have a wishy washy congress that is afraid to do the right thing for the American people and they should all be voted out in the coming elections

I think America should pull the old Republican trick and seize all of their assets. Bush & Cheney and the lot of them would make a nice clump of change for America. It's already starting to happen. I watched America break down Tricky Dick Nixon, and impeach him and his staff of crooks. Nixon resigned and couldn't finish his terms; because of what was siad by him and Billy Grahm. Yes I said Billy Grahm, he was involved just like what is going on right now. Billy Grahm was Nixons spiritual advisor at the time. So America has already had plenty of experience with people, places and things like this. We will just open back up all the play books, and it will be business as usual. Bush wont make it to November now, since he has broken the ice on the American people, and now the Latinos. That was really brilliant!!! Ha Ha Ha!!!! Impeach Bush and the rest of the warmongers.

I agree 100% with everything you've said except that the Republican party is fractured.  I know too many idiots that are happy with the current situation  (...mostly because they live in a small world centered around themselves and are naive to everything that doesn't directly present itself to them).  And naivete is the problem anyway.  Americans wouldn't be in this mess if more of us weren't so naive to the issues and our role in political process.  The political process might be part of the problem, but the election probably wouldn't have fallen the way it did if it hadn't been so close in the first place.  And who's to blame for letting it get that close?  At least half of US, for voting with our heads up our derrieres.  I sincerely hope we do better next time around.  Actually, to dig ourselves out of this pit, we'll probably have to find someone just as GOOD as Bush is BAD.

All Americans do not believe in what our President is doing.  I did not vote for the man because I knew we would be back in Iraq if he got elected.  It is sad that he used the victims of 9/11 his gateway to Iraq.  All Americans are not like him.  I could not understand how so many Americans could not see what he would do if he got elected.  It is a no brain-er to predict what he was going to do.  In our elections last week, I think they have finally woke up to the fact of what he is doing.\n\nI love our country because we do have the right to freedom so to speak.  Apparently there are a lot of folks in other countries who like our country, because they trying to come over here for citizenship.  They are tired of their government running their lives.  We do not have to agree with our government but at least we have the right to voice it.  Hopefully, now our country will head in the right direction.

When candidates present a certain persona while campaigning, one develops an opinion of them by assuming they are truthful.  Bush made a lot of promises and told a lot of lies, but later renegged on everything and made some bad decisions.  Therefore, the ones who did not vote for him are very disgusted with him and those who did want him for president are finding out he is not a good one.

No I did not vote for Bush, but my biggest problem with having G.W. as a president is that it has become exeedingly embarrassing to be an American.

Honestly peoples votes actually do not count.  Going by the majority not many people like the president. So why is he there.  POWER my friend has more to say than the people. Sad but true.
