Emails to CNN on Bush's using 9/11 were scathing!!

[onehandle]

This morning letters to Jack Cafferty's question "Is it appropriate to use images of 9/11 in political ads?" were overwhelmingly Negative! American Morning got Hundreds of responses. Even some Republicans were pissed off.

Keep it up, smirk.

[Sticky]

1. 800 of 1000 letters were nagative

I like this one from Georgia:

"I've never voted in my life because I thought it wouldn't matter. Bush's use of 9/11 is so vile that I am going out to register just so I can vote against him."

[onehandle]

6. I didn't hear that one. Nice. nt

[ronnykmarshall]

2. Yeah keep it up!

Shrub boy and company are so arrogant they don't care. Imagine what the repug convention will be like? I hope they milk 9/11 in the most partisan way. People are not stupid.

[Atman]

3. But remember, they claim 50% of America support

The biggest LIE is the poll numbers. 50% support...the "tight race" scenerio. If the race is this tight, Diebold can EASILY steal it. The problem is, it isn't really this tight. The letters to Cafferty, while certainly not a scientific sampling, are typical. Tell me when was the last time you heard mainstream support for Bush? Just the opposite, everything I hear, from Imus to Limbaugh to blacks to seniors to women to vets to firefighters to teachers to gays to even some of the REPUBLICANS...where the hell is this 50% coming from? Is literally half of America fat rich white guys and Wal Martyrs? I don't believe it for a minute!

"A TIGHT RACE" is the lynchpin of the Bush/Diebold vote-stealing scheme. If they actually reported Bush 30% support, it would be impossible for Diebold to steal that many votes to sway the race without causing MASSIVE suspicion and revolt. So it must be CLOSE CLOSE CLOSE, despite the fact that you can't find hardly anyone outside the RNC who says they support the man.

5. I'm not even sure where that 50 percent comes from

It may be a close race come November, but Bush's "reelect" numbers are well below 50 percent.

[Atman]

9. But you never hear about the reelect numbers

on any broadcast or newspaper, or at least only very briefly. They brush over them quickly, before they put up the aggregate "How do you think Bush is handing himself" or some other stupid number. That is the key to the plan...don't ever mention re-elect numbers, focus on mystical "approval" numbers.

[havocmom]

13. Yeah, where do the 50% type numbers come from? Nobody here likes him

anymore. Haven't heard one favorable comment since the turkey debacle and this county voted 80% bush* in 2000. If his popularity has dropped this far here, he is not in a 'tight race' at all.

I got immediately suspicious in 2000 when it was announced there would be no exit polling. That was a huge tip off that there were questionable activities going on. Now all this "close race" and "tight race" propaganda.

Hmmmm. Trying to convince Americans of something that isn't true so they can get on with their agenda? Gee, would they do that? /sarcasm

14. bush is a liar poll

they have stopped showing that one too. that is the loudest speaking poll. and it is way so many think bush is liar. they were showing for a couple weeks, but now they dont ever show that one

[seabeyond]

8. i too keep hearing

tight race. yet all i hear about people disgusted and angry, so many. and i think about the anger to clinton and democrats and independents buying bush and nadar in 2000............

i just dont see the same atmosphere and i am not seeing as a whole, from a distance how it can be such a tight race. the republican party was mobilized to go out and vote in 2000 not democrats. and gore didnt have independents and a lot of democrats, and he literally won, but that was a tight one.

19. Exactly my thoughts

I think his real poll numbers are in the 30's. We should start accusing the press of this now.

[Bonhomme Richard]

4. It never ceases to amaze me how this bunch.............

lack the ability to think anything through to it's logical conclusion.
The topic doesn't seem to matter whether Iraq, Exporting of jobs, Haiti, Environment, or any other subject that requires clear thought.
Simply amazing.

[supernova]

10. Exactly, Oz

I've been thinking the same thing. They just can't see past their own noses.

I think what we are witnessing here is the limits of the "plain-spoken" personality. And I'm glad people are getting tired of it.

[DemMother]

17. Removed from reality

That's what you get for not reading the papers.

It's ironic that these ads were intended to counter the image that Bush is out of touch, the very thing that led to his father's defeat. Bush is probably more insulated and out of touch than the old man ever was.

[SoCalDem]

7. He stood on the victims' ashes with a bullhorn....

Why would he change now?? He is the president of "compassion".:(

[Joanne98]

20. He wanted to show off his cheerleader skills

11. I thought it was instructive during the latest primaries

That *Bush's selection was about 30% of the total votes in the Georgia primary. Indicating that 70% voted democrat selection of presidential nominees.

I realize many could have been republicans cross-voting into the democrat camp, yet I wonder, could the real voter approval of *Bush be closer to 30% based on numbers voting for one of the democrat nominees?

[hang a left]

12. I bet 30% is about where it is.

And it all comes from his fundie base.

[Jose Diablo]

16. OK, so if his remaining base is the fundy base

Then wouldn't this indicate a 'morality' attack further splintering his remaining base should be the next strategy.

I not only want this guy beat next November, I want him and his cabal destroyed politically.

Edit for spelling

[frylock]

18. fundies and morality have nothing in common

[Joanne98]

21. fundie values=lie, steal, murder

15. Can't wait to see the Rethuglican's reception in NYC, given they've

sensitized the public with their grand-standing! Hee, hee, hee

[jeanmarc]

22. Bush is a drag on the candidacy of every Repug

He's the opposite of 'coattails', he's off the wagon and being dragged by it.
