One of the latest political articles by Reuters is titled Bush, Congress at record low ratings: Reuters poll . The article goes onto state that according to the latest Reuters/Zogby poll only 29% of Americans approve of President Bush's work, while only 11% of Americans approve of Congress' work. The article goes onto discuss a new Reuters pol, The Reuters/Zogby Index, which supposedly measures the mood of the country. According to the latest Reuters/Zogby Mood Index the country is in a bad and depressing mood.
News Flash: We already know! Why is this so surprising or even newsworthy? Thank you for telling us the obvious!
And why shouldn't we be in a bad mood? We have an electorate that is completely out of touch with the general public, and is filled with hucksters and charlatans. We have the major news media that is becoming more biased and incompetent with each passing day. We see that the Federal Government is pretty much inept at pretty much everything. Note to self: when a government body cannot build 600 miles of fence in 12 years they are a joke! We have a President that once he makes up his mind will not change it for pretty much any reason (can you say tunnel vision?). We're in a war that has no easy outs and if we don't find a good exit strategy we could over there for a really long time no matter what the ridiculous Dems are saying (they know the truth and are simply playing political games while they can). Illegal immigrants are running amok costing the country hundreds of billions of dollars for schooling, health care, social services, etc., and our politicians won't do anything about it because the Republicans are trying to please the major industries who profit from their cheap labor, while the Democrats are trying to build up a huge voting block. We're being sold out by both parties on all fronts with only useless platitudes to hang on!
To make matters worse, we're facing another huge finance mess in the mortgage industry thanks to the government not doing its job of regulating it. All of the idiots that went crazy on low interest ARMS and second mortgages because they couldn't control their spending, now want us to bail them out, as do the greedy and stupid mortgage lending execs that lent people more money than they could reasonably afford to pay back! Note: these two groups deserve each other and the pain they are going through. And now the brilliant politicos want to bail these people out and then review what happened and make some regulations to keep this from happening again. Another showing of incompetence for all involved.
Then Hillary wants the government to manage a national health care system. A government that pays $800.00 for a toilet seat, a government that builds 78 miles of a 600 mile long fence in 12 years, a government that becomes more and more corrupt every day, a government which underestimates and overspends on pretty much everything. What a disaster is looming on the horizon!
The general voting public becomes more lazy and less informed every day. Making voting decisions on hair color, "he looks honest", "she says that's what she'll do", and every other crazy reason more and more in spite of the easiest access in our history to read and review Congressional speeches, voting patterns, etc. I talk to you. I know you are out there and you are killing us. Hey folks it's the old saying "Don't tell me, show me". If they vote extremely liberal they are liberal. If they vote extremely conservative, they are conservative. Look up their voting pattern, don't listen to what they say. These lazy voters then wonder how these nefarious people got into office. You put them there!
Well, I want to know just what in the h--- do we have to be happy about?! Reuters/Zogby why don't you make up a poll for that?
